Skin with good hydration feels smooth, supple and radiant. The secret isn’t just about adding moisture – it’s also about helping your skin retain it. Here, we guide you through the ingredients and products that effectively boost your skin’s hydration levels.
Restore your skin’s moisture balance
Quench your skin’s thirst with Serum Moist – a soothing gel serum packed with moisture-binding ingredients like plant-based Glycerin, Xylitol and Sugar derivatives.
Face Lotion Moist is a lightweight 24-hour cream, specially formulated for dehydrated skin, with moisture-retaining Jojoba Oil and naturally fermented Lactic Acid (AHA).
Boost hydration overnight with Night Cream, enriched with Rosehip Seed Oil to stimulate cell renewal, along with moisture-binding Squalane and fermented Lactic Acid (AHA).
Aloe Vera Barbadensis is a pure aloe vera gel that soothes and cools, while also offering excellent moisture-binding properties.
Retain moisture with a strong skin protective barrier
The skin barrier acts as an invisible shield, keeping moisture locked in. When it’s weakened, water evaporates quickly and the skin can feel dry, flaky and dull.
Our luxurious Royal Facial Oil are a dream for the skin barrier and an essential step in your skincare routine. Rich in essential fatty acids, they help the skin rebuild its protective layer and maintain optimal hydration for longer. Available in several variants to suit different skin types, these oils are applied after any serum and before your moisturiser.
For extra protection and radiance, follow with Face Balm after your cream. With nourishing plant-based oils, it supports the skin’s natural ability to retain moisture and resist external stressors.
Support your skin’s natural hyaluronic acid production
Hyaluronic acid naturally occurs in the skin and helps bind water, keeping it soft, supple and plump. However, production decreases with age, making the skin more prone to dryness and loss of elasticity. To support this process, we use ingredients such as peptides, fatty acids and antioxidants. They strengthen the skin’s natural mechanisms and provide long-lasting hydration. You’ll find these in our nutrient-rich Royal Facial Oils.
Why we don’t add hyaluronic acid to our products
Hyaluronic acid is often marketed as a miracle ingredient for its moisture-binding effect. While applying it topically can give a temporary soft feel – much like mineral oils or other synthetic ingredients – it doesn’t reach the deeper skin layers where it’s needed. In fact, external hyaluronic acid can draw moisture out of the skin over time, causing dryness. Instead, we focus on ingredients that truly penetrate deeper layers and support the skin’s own hyaluronic acid production.
