Does your skin feel drier and duller? After winter it is common to feel tighter and duller; the main reason is lack of hydration. Skin flooding is the perfect technique to nourish dehydrated skin, layer by layer. It's about adding different moisturizing products to your beauty routine on time and applying them one after the other, to provide that extra hydration and softness. Bring him back to life! and show off healthy, smooth and radiant skin.
The key is to apply products that contain these 3 star ingredients: hyaluronic acid , glycerin and niacinamide , with damp skin and following an order of application. Both hyaluronic acid and glycerin have a high water retention capacity and make the skin firmer and more hydrated. Niacinamide, on the other hand, provides anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties that prevent skin alterations and prevent premature skin aging. For combination or oily skin, you must keep in mind that all the products you use must be non-comedogenic and oil-free, if you want to avoid excessive sebum production.
1. Cleanse your face thoroughly. Use a gentle, non-drying facial cleanser. Then apply a facial mist of thermal water or rose water with a soothing action.
2. Double serum. On still damp skin, apply a hyaluronic acid serum, let it penetrate and absorb well. Spray the facial mist again and apply a second serum with niacinamide.
3. Day/night cream. Let your skin absorb the second serum and you can now apply your usual moisturizer.
This technique floods the skin, in layers, with different products that range from lighter to denser. This way it is possible to maintain hydration for longer, avoiding transepidermal water loss.
1. Perform this technique , only occasionally , as a remedy for dry and dehydrated skin. You can oversaturate your skin if you do this practice regularly.
2. Always use products appropriate to your skin type and needs. Even oily skin may need hydration, but you should always use specific products to avoid excess sebum.
3. Don't confuse wet and humid. Don't dry your skin completely, this helps seal in hydration. Avoid applying products on wet skin, it is ineffective, because the products slide and do not penetrate the epidermis.
4. Don't forget to apply sun protection daily.
