Everything you need to know about hydration

Drinking enough water is crucial to maintaining your body’s well being. 

We've all heard it that: Our bodies are made of up to 70% water which makes it essential to the good function of our cells. Drinking enough water will, amongst other things, help to flush toxins, hydrate, normalize blood pressure as well as protect the organs. There's a surprising number of people who are unaware that our skin is the largest organ of our body, however, water will hydrate all the other organs before it reaches to the skin. So in other words, the epidermis will need a little hydration boost to quench the thirst. 

Our skin requires water to remain healthy, toxin-free, and hydrated. Certain steps must be taken to provide the additional moisture that it requires.

Most people don't know the difference between dry skin and dehydrated skin.

First, lets know the definition for each term: 

Dry skin is a skin type and lacks in oil. Meaning that your skin will have more tendency to be irritated, have blemishes and overall lack moisture.

Dehydrated skin is a temporary condition that can happen at any given time, meaning that your skin needs water. It's like feeling thirsty or feeling hungry. Dry skin needs nourishment, while dehydrated skin needs a good 'drink', but it's not lacking in nutrients.

Creating the ultimate beauty skincare routine

If you are looking to create a skincare routine that caters to your personal skin concerns and needs, you will need to create a beauty routine that includes cleansing and moisturizing. Depending on your skin’s concern, the type of products and their ingredients will vary: dry skin would most likely require non water-based products that are high in oils and butters, whereas a dehydrated skin is telling you that you should drink more water! In addition to keep hydrating your skin, using products that contain a great percentage of oils and butters, so that you can effectively lock in water and moisture to your skin. 

Now if you have oily skin, avoid heavy oils that have a tendency to clog pores and opt for a moisturizer that contains non-comedogenic butters.

The importance of a good moisturizer

Now that we’ve broken down and explained different skin types and why you should hydrate your inner and outer body, let’s talk about moisturizers. Keep in mind that your body naturally has sebaceous glands and that is important to work in balance with its natural functioning. We recommend that you stray away from any cleanser that claims to get rid of oil and keep your face matte, as this will irritate any skin type! 

No matter your skin type, it is important to nourish and hydrate your skin with the right ingredients. Hydration is crucial to maintain your skin’s moisture barrier and prevent it from any environmental irritations. Even if you have an acne-prone skin and feel like you’d rather not layer on any more moisture to your face, know that hydration is still important as irritated skin will have more tendency to break out.
