Why does the skin become dehydrated?
The skin becomes dehydrated when it lacks water. Unlike dry skin, which is a skin type, dehydration is a temporary condition that can affect all skin types, even oily skin.
This phenomenon is often linked to a compromised skin barrier. This barrier, located on the skin’s surface, retains moisture and protects against external aggressors. When it is weakened, water evaporates more easily, leading to a feeling of discomfort, tightness and a duller complexion.
Several factors can cause this loss of hydration:
- External aggressors: cold, wind, sun, pollution
- Inappropriate skincare: overly harsh cleansers, drying products
- Skin ageing: the skin retains moisture less effectively over time
- Lifestyle: stress, fatigue, lack of hydration
- Hormonal fluctuations
Dehydrated skin can become more sensitive, uncomfortable and marked. It is therefore essential to use suitable moisturising skincare products to restore the skin barrier and maintain a good level of hydration on a daily basis.
1
Cleanse gently.
Choose a gentle, soap-free cleanser that respects the skin’s barrier. Avoid overly harsh products that increase water loss. Cleansing morning and evening helps remove impurities whilst preparing the skin to absorb moisturisers.
2
Intensive hydration.
Apply Hydrafac, a treatment designed to restore the skin’s moisture levels and strengthen its protective barrier. This treatment hydrates the skin, maintains moisture over time and reduces feelings of tightness. Apply morning and evening for visible, long-lasting results.

Protect and nourish the skin
To minimise dehydration, it is important to protect the skin from external aggressors. Sun protection helps to preserve moisture and prevent the skin from becoming further compromised.
