Your skin loves, and lives to feel moisturized and hydrated.
‘Skin Quenching’ is the use of powerful ingredients – replete with hydrating (water retaining) molecules to enhance your skin’s natural retention process. In due course, this intense hydration prevents dryness and unlocks dewy, revitalized, supple skin.
If your answer is yes to at least any two of the following points, your skin is in serious need of quenching:
- Does your skin feel dry, stretched, and itchy often?
- After using your current moisturizer/ treatment regimen, does your skin feel dry or compromised?
- When you touch your face, does it hurt?
- Is your skin tight and uncomfortable?
- Have you noticed visible flaking, dead skin shedding, or rough patches?
- Do you have fine lines, wrinkles, or hyper-pigmentation?
- Are you experiencing breakouts, redness, or discoloration that’s taking time to heal?
Dry or Dehydrated Skin? – Some additional information you need to read before we start, and how we can help to repair and reset dehydrated skin.
Skin Quenching at Two Levels
Some of our favorite players for intense skin hydration are Hyaluronic Acid, CoEnzyme Q10, Vitamin E, and Aloe Vera. However, when your skin reaches a critical level of dehydration, no ‘one’ ingredient works wonders.
Level 1: Hydrators or Toners to Prime the Skin
Our hydrators are designed to neutralize free radicals (the oxidation that is largely responsibililty for the signs of aging skin) and increase water-binding support. The power of Vitamin E, Vitamin C, and Slippery Elm primes and provides your skin with a much needed ‘big drink of water’.
This is one of the most important (yet the most neglected) skincare step that not only has an instant soothing action but also plumps tissues, improves moisture retention, and suppleness.
But there’s a catch…
Vata, Pitta, or Kapha Doshas or skin types – Each skin is different. And, so is your individual skin’s demand for water. For the most effective results, always pick a dedicated Organic Hydrator that matches your skin’s needs. Learn more.
Level 2: The Real Quenching
With the ability to bind 1000X times its weight in water, Hyaluronic Acid (HA) in our BioScience Peptide Complex is one of the most powerful humectants (water retaining factors) that support serious rehydration. Our topical HA is as effective as injectable HA (often used as fillers) for replacing lost volume.
You might not know it, but your body makes its own HA. However as you age, the production of HA decreases, along with the breakdown of the collagen-elastin matrix, which untimely slows down cell-to-cell interaction and turnover, and reduces collagen synthesis.
Our plant-based HA reintroduces this lost component. It is the safest skin hydrating ingredient for those who have extremely dry skin or who want dewy, glowing & moisturized skin, even under extreme weather conditions.
In addition, hydration is improved 2X with Aloe Vera, Coenzyme Q10, Vitamin E, and Cold-pressed Oil blend (Sunflower, Hemp seed, Jojoba, Borage, Evening Primrose, Sesame, Sea Buckthorn, Almond & Grapeseed).
For over 40 skin, you’ll see more rapid and improved results with BioScience + Collagen Boost Serum to finish.
With these deeply penetrating healing serums, Dry, Dehydrated Skin becomes a distant memory. While our Skincare regimens are minimalist, they are also highly effective at restoring life and vitality to your skin. Vitamin C and Peptides also mitigate the signs of aging.
