THEn summer, the skin is subjected to strong stress. High temperatures, exposure to the sun, often also all day if you are on vacation, can run out of water and hydration reserves. For this, “reinforcing” one’s daily skincare can help. As? With super moisturizing serums and masks, with ingredients such as Hyaluronic acid and aloe.
Moisturists face in summer: Booster time
Apter, sweat, humidity, perhaps even hours spent in the sun stress a lot of skin that can run out its water reserves. Delicate detergents and creams help daily but sometimes the face needs extra help, a booster to be used daily or in emergency cases.
“The epidermis has its natural hydration factor that manages to hold back the right level of humidity in the skin. The task of the water is also that of maintain elasticity skin, The first sign of dehydration is manifested in fact with the annoying feeling of “pit skin”” explains Gaetana Acconciaioco, head of the Bottega Verde workshops.
The problem presents itself in the hottest days when the high temperatures react on the skin by dehydrating it, mainly. Without then counting the air conditioning and fans. In fact, the principle is very simple: The high temperatures and the high levels of humidity cause strong sweating Which causes an epidermal water dispersion which, in the most extreme cases, can cause not only skin dryness but also cracking and irritation.
For this, in addition to the normal precautions in their own summer routine, such as the adoption of gel textures both as regards the detergents and face creams, “often have fresh textures, light and rapid absorption. The consistency can be different, gel So completely with aqueous base or in gel cream, with a small oily phase that helps to maintain the protective skin barrier ». An extra plus is also essential, the right ingredients that must be highly moisturizing and give relief on hot days.
Hyaluronic acid, sugars and aquaporins: super moisturizing ingredients
The first, recommended by the expert, is thehyaluronic acid. “This polysaccharide has a‘high water retention capacity exercising a moisturizing action and replump effect from the inside. There are different types of hyaluronic acid that act at different levels of the epidermis based on the molecular weight, which can go from a few thousand Dalton up to millions of Dalton in the case of hyaluronic acid with reticulated structure “.
Equally moisturizing are also the aquaPorinemembrane proteins that regulate the exchange of water in the cells and “there are cosmetic ingredients that act by stimulating them and improving the hydration of the skin, For example, compare to glycerin ».
TheAloe fermentedwhich is obtained thanks to the “Saccharomyces Cerevisiae, which manages to hydrolyse the Aloe in order to make some cellulose available and have a richer content in short chain sugars. In other words, this mechanism makes Aloe fermented Five times more effective than the classic, it helps prevent desquamation and improves elasticity and compactness “.
Last but not least, ingredient to be found are the sugars, in particular those of 100% vegetable wheat because “their composition is similar to the skin and guarantee A hydration up to 72 hours thanks to a multi -level action. In fact, the more superficial corneum layer is usually the driest one, but wheat sugars also work at deeper levels by strengthening the barrier function and regulating the desquamation ».
Series and masks, the allies of the summer face
Green light therefore to Moisturizing serums, the first gesture of the Skincare Routine Mattiniera. The formulations are hyperconted and designed to absorb speed. Hyear almost always watery or gel texture e they apply before the cream. In some cases, especially if you want to lighten the daily routine, they can also be used alone because, by acting in depth, they offer all the hydration that the skin needs.
Also wide at masks, perhaps evening, priima of the night. They reproach, refresh and quench the skin at the end of the day. Act Relating the lipid barrier and, above all, they seal the hydration in the deeper layers, in addition to reintegrating the lost components. In fact, the purpose of the masks is not only to hydrate the immediate but above all to recall and retain the water in the surface tissues, thus making “escort”.
