Additional Information
- What’s the difference between a moisturizer and a hydrator? A moisturizer is a cosmetic cream or lotion made with humectants or occlusive or a combination of that prevents skin dryness. A hydrator is a cosmetic treatment product that promotes epidermal health by supporting the skin’s natural biomolecules, including HA, other humectants and hydration-boosting collagens.
- What’s the difference between dehydrated and dry skin? Dry skin is a skin type, while dehydration is a skin condition. Both involve transepidermal water loss, which prevents enzymes from effectively shedding cells, leading to a buildup that makes skin appear rough and emphasizes fine lines and wrinkles. Dry skin, often genetic or related to systemic issues, results from low sebum production or an imbalance in fatty acids, ceramides, and cholesterol in the skin barrier. With age, reduced hormone levels can also lower sebum production. Dehydrated skin still produces sebum but appears dry due to temporary factors like a dry climate, harsh products, or imbalances in the skin barrier that increase water loss.
- How should HA⁵® Hydra Collagen Replenish & Restore Hydrator be used within a regimen? It should be applied immediately before moisturizer in a normal regimen.
