HYDRATED SKIN IS HEALTHY SKIN

8 out of 10 women say they have dehydrated skin*

Let's take a closer look at what happens when skin's water levels fall.

*Clarins survey, 820 women aged 25-50, all skin types.

What causes skin dehydration?

External factors such as stress, pollution and sun damage cause water to escape through the skin’s surface.

THE ENVIRONMENT
STRESS & FATIGUE
ALCOHOL & TOBACCO
EXCESS SCREEN TIME

When the skin lacks water, it becomes fragile and is no longer able to retain moisture. Skin appears dull, tired, with feelings of tightness or discomfort.

What causes skin dehydration?

Transepidermal water loss

Losing water leads skin to become dehydrated.

All skin types - dry, oily and combination - can suffer from dehydration.

Fortunately, dehydration is a temporary state

Once rehydrated properly, skin becomes softer, visibly plumper, and more luminous.

· The appearance of fine lines is reduced
· Skin is visibly plumper, feeling more supple and comfortable
· Skin appears more radiant

THE SKIN QUIZ

Test your skin knowledge with these quickfire questions

Dry and dehydrated skin are the same thing

True

False

False
Dry skin is a skin type, like normal and oily skin. Dehydration is a condition that occurs when there's a lack of water in the skin. All skin types can become dehydrated.

Transepidermal water loss only occurs during the day

True

False

False
Transepidermal water loss occurs all the time, not just during the day - so it's important to make sure your skin stays hydrated at night! Clarins’ research shows that the skin’s protective barrier is most permeable at night, making it more susceptible to moisture loss that can result in dullness, tightness & fine lines.

The exposome only includes external factors

True

False

True
Our skin changes as we age. Some of these changes are due to our genetics, or 'genome'. All of the other factors that affect our skin are caused by our environment, or 'exposome' - everything from our diet and lifestyle to pollution and the weather.

Skin loses up to 1L of water every month

True

False

True
Skin suffers up to 17 'thermal shocks' every day from factors linked to the exposome, for a total of almost one liter of water lost per month.
