What Makes a Hydrating Hero and Why it's Crucial for Your Skin
Let's kick things off with a key question: what exactly is a hydrating hero?
These are the special ingredients in your beauty products like creams, masks, and oils that give them their superpowers.
A hydrating hero has the amazing ability to attract water like a magnet and then lock it in, boosting your skin's water content.
Hydrated skin reflects light better. This is what gives your skin that bouncy glow everyone wants.
But the role of these hero ingredients doesn't stop there; they also help strengthen your skin's natural shield against external threats.
Most Hydrating Ingredients
Two main factors impact your skin's hydration:
- Your skin barrier. the protective barrier that limits water loss. When it's not healthy and hydrated, it can get compromised––letting water escape and causing your skin to become even more dehydrated.
- Hyaluronic acid. This is a naturally occurring substance in your body that attracts and holds onto water before it evaporates. As we age, our bodies make less Hyaluronic acid which is why you need to replace it to keep your skin supple.
We can't stress this enough: no matter your skin type or tine, hydration is a must for everyone.
Well-hydrated skin is healthier skin: it's more flexible, smoother, and better equipped to defend against external elements like cold weather and pollution.
So, the perks of hydration go beyond just looking and feeling good.
5 Super Hydrating Ingredients for Glowing Skin and How They Work
In the quest for ultimate hydration, some ingredients stand out:
- Hyaluronic Acid (INCI Name: Sodium Hyaluronate): The undefeated champion of hydration, capable of holding up to 1000 times its weight in water, making it perfect for plumping the skin and smoothing out signs of aging.
- Glycerin (INCI Name: Glycerin): A classic humectant that draws moisture from the air to keep your skin soft and supple. Kadalys uses only plant-based sources for glycerin.
- Aloe Vera (INCI Name: Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Extract): Rich in water, vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and antioxidants, Aloe Vera is known for its ability to hydrate while promoting the skin's cellular regeneration process. It also helps soothe irritated or sensitized skin.
- Red Algae Complex (INCI Name: Chondrus Crispus Powder): Less known but equally powerful, the Red Algae Complex works wonders for thirsty skin. These marine plants are rich in minerals and antioxidants, providing intense hydration while fighting oxidative stress.
- Squalane (INCI Name: Squalane): Often derived from Olive Oil or Sugar Cane, Squalane mimics your natural skin sebum, providing lightweight yet effective hydration without clogging pores.
