Hydrated skin in 5 steps

Keeping the skin well-hydrated is the cornerstone of any beauty routine, whether your skin is dry, oily, or combination.
Through proper hydration, in fact, it is possible to prevent various imperfections and skin aging.

Here is why deep hydration is essential for the well-being of any skin type, especially the more delicate one.

Let's see together what are the 5 steps to apply to keep our skin always properly hydrated.

Cleaning

The worst habit is to come home and not remove your makeup.

"Nothing like makeup, smog, and clogged pores cause imperfections of every kind on your skin."

"We are always inclined to see the cleansing moment as one of the most uncomfortable, instead, facial cleansing with micellar lotions or cleansers should be considered as the essential step of every beauty routine."

A skin that is properly cleansed daily makes a difference: it shines, absorbs the active ingredients of subsequent treatments better, and stays youthful.

"Not only can dead skin cells on the surface be eliminated, but we also ensure that the moisturizing textures applied afterwards achieve greater success and more lasting benefits."

Moisturizing cream

"As time goes by, the surface cells of the skin lose firmness and the face tends to appear duller: by applying moisturizing creams, the skin of the face will look healthier, more alluring, and velvety."

Moisturizing the face with any cream, however, is not enough; it would be like providing energy to the body by eating any food: you need to discover the ingredients that truly nourish it and in the most correct way for your skin.

Some skins, in fact, will need more consistent hydration and nourishment, while others require a cream with a lighter and less intrusive texture.

Take the test to discover what skin type you have to meet its needs in the right way!

Hydrating mask

To keep our skin smooth and soft, it is necessary to apply a nourishing mask on the face at least once a week.

There are also all kinds of moisturizing masks, those to be applied with a brush, those made of fabric, and even DIY ones.
Moisturizing face masks help maintain the necessary moisture of the skin both as a preventive measure and as a remedy against skin dehydration. The latter, in fact, is responsible for many of the most disliked skin imperfections.

The benefit that face masks provide to your skin is twofold: on one hand, they replenish the tissues with water, and on the other hand, they try to prevent the so-called perspiratio insensibilis, which is nothing more than the inevitable loss of water through the skin pores.

Proper nourishment

"It is very important to associate the treatments already mentioned with a healthy and balanced diet, knowing which foods are most suitable to ensure the health of our skin (read more in this article)."

"It is necessary to include in our diet foods rich in water, vitamins, and antioxidants, such as fruits, raw vegetables, whole grains, nuts, and seafood, as well as "fatty" fish, like salmon."

Water, water, water!

Drinking enough during the day is essential to keep your skin hydrated!

If you find it hard to remember to drink, then always keep a water bottle in your bag or on your desk and take small sips throughout the day. In the colder months, you can fill it with herbal tea or tea sweetened with a spoonful of honey. In the warmer months, you can flavor the water with cucumbers, sage, rosemary, or all kinds of red fruits.
