Hydration and beauty: secrets for glowing skin
Written on March 31, 2025, by Pauline de Santarome
Do you dream of glowing, healthy skin? Hydration is the key! Our skin needs water to stay supple, radiant, and protected from external aggressions. But drinking water isn't always enough: solutions such as hydration tablets can boost your beauty routine. Find out why hydration is essential and how to maintain it on a daily basis.
The effects of dehydrated skin
Dehydrated skin lacks water, and this is quickly apparent. It becomes duller, loses its radiance, and may even appear tired. You often feel tightness, especially after cleansing, and fine lines caused by dehydration may appear, particularly around the eyes. Unlike dry skin, which lacks lipids, dehydration can affect all skin types, even oily skin.
When deprived of water, the skin loses elasticity and suppleness. It becomes more sensitive to external aggressions, such as pollution and cold weather, and regenerates less effectively. The result? The complexion becomes uneven, the skin may be more prone to imperfections, and signs of aging appear more quickly.
Different ways to moisturize the skin
Proper hydration requires several daily steps. It's not enough to apply a moisturizer to nourish the skin; you also need to take action from within and adapt your beauty routine. Here are three ways to help your skin stay supple and radiant.
Internal hydration: the importance of drinking water
The first step to maintaining healthy skin is to drink enough water. The body needs water to maintain skin elasticity and promote skin renewal. A diet rich in essential fats, such as those found in avocados or nuts, also helps to limit water loss. For an extra boost, hydration tablets provide essential minerals to optimize water intake.
External hydration: suitable cosmetic products
Skin care products help strengthen the skin barrier and limit water evaporation. A good moisturizer contains suitable ingredients such as hyaluronic acid, which retains water in the tissues, or aloe vera, known for its soothing effect. Rich textures, based on shea butter, offer immediate comfort and help repair even the driest skin.
Deep hydration with professional treatments
Sometimes, a simple beauty routine isn't enough. Certain professional treatments, such as salon treatments, provide deeper and longer-lasting hydration. Choosing a natural product or a gentle solution helps maintain the skin's balance while boosting hydration.
The benefits of hydration for glowing skin
Optimal hydration also contributes to a radiant complexion,reduces blemishes and wrinkles, and stimulates cell regeneration.
A fresh and radiant complexion thanks to water
Water is essential for maintaining skin elasticity and suppleness. Good internal hydration ensures a fresh and radiant complexion. According to a literature review published in 2018, increasing water consumption can improve hydration of the stratum corneum, the outermost layer of our skin composed mainly of dead cells.
Reduction of blemishes and wrinkles
Well-hydrated skin is less prone to blemishes and wrinkles. Water helps eliminate toxins, reducing the risk of acne and other skin problems. In addition, adequate hydration keeps the skin supple, delaying the appearance of wrinkles. As highlighted in an article bySanté sur le Net, the skin's hydrolipidic film, composed of water and lipids, preserves the skin's appearance by maintaining its hydration, suppleness, and radiance, while protecting it from aging.
Cell regeneration activated by hydration
Hydration promotes cell regeneration, which is essential for healthy skin. Well-hydrated skin renews itself more effectively, replacing dead cells with new ones, which contributes to a radiant complexion. Good hydration promotes cell renewal and an effective protective barrier.
Daily hydration: practical tips and advice
Well-hydrated skin requires daily habits, a suitable diet, and avoiding certain mistakes.
Habits to adopt for proper hydration
Drinking enough water is the first step to optimal hydration. Experts generally recommend consuming between 1.5 and 2 liters of water per day to meet the body's needs and maintain supple, glowing skin. However, keep in mind that everyone's metabolism is different. According to nutritionist Arnaud Cocaul, "Drinking a liter and a half of water is meaningless," because it all depends on factors such as age, where you live, physical activity, etc.
Applying a moisturizer morning and night is also important. In the morning, after cleansing your face, use a moisturizer suited to your skin type. In the evening, opt for a more nourishing cream to help the skin regenerate overnight.
The impact of diet on skin hydration
Foods rich in essential fatty acids, such as fatty fish, nuts, and seeds, strengthen the skin's lipid barrier, reducing water loss. Eating water-rich fruits and vegetables, such as cucumbers, watermelon, and citrus fruits, also contributes to the water intake necessary for healthy skin.
Mistakes to avoid for well-hydrated skin
Avoid harsh cleansers that strip the skin of its natural oils. Limit excessive exposure to the sun without protection, as UV rays can dry out and damage the skin. Finally, be wary of overly dry environments; using a humidifier can help maintain moisture in the air.
