HydroShield® Face Emulsion with AcquaCell Technology is a breakthrough face cream that is able to address perhaps the most important reason why our skin develops dry lines and wrinkles: Transepidermal water loss. It also supplements one of the most critical moisturizing entities in the skin that we lose as we age: Sodium PCA.

View full details

Who is it for: Anyone with dehydrated, dry, parched, or old-looking skin; anyone who suffers from increased Transepidermal water loss, which manifests itself as more and more visible dry lines and wrinkles. If your skin still looks dry no matter what you try, this is the cream for you.

Why is it different: HydroShield® with AcquaCell Technology works to hydrate the skin, to reduce transepidermal water loss and thereby soften the appearance of dry lines and wrinkles. It addresses skin that is dry, parched, has visible dry lines and wrinkles, feels uncomfortable, and looks old. This emulsion delivers hydration to the skin, leaving it smooth, supple, and youthful-looking. Sodium PCA is a key moisturizing entity that is found naturally in young skin to keep skin hydrated and pliable. As we age, Sodium PCA levels decline. HydroShield Face Emulsion supplies Sodium PCA to the skin to deliver superior hydration to the skin.

1. Cleanse and Tone

The cleansing phase is an important first step, but skip the soap. The pH of soap can dry your skin. A good cleanser has a pH close to that of the skin and is non-drying. And avoid water-free, leave-on cleansers, which can clog your pores. Follow cleansing with a toner to remove any debris the cleanser missed.

CLEANSER: Look for alpha- and beta-hydroxy acids, which are excellent cleaning agents, and beneficial additions like vitamins C and E.

The key isn't just the ingredients - you rinse them off very quickly - but finding a good cleanser that doesn't leave your skin feeling tight and dry. You should judge your cleanser based on the condition of your skin after you've washed, rinsed, and dried. Your face should feel fresh, clean, and comfortable, not dry or pulled.

TONER: The same criteria apply. An effective toner will have a gentle astringency, yet it should leave your face feeling soft and refreshed, NOT pulled and dry.

2. Exfoliate & Purify

The exfoliating phase is critical if you want flawless skin. Exfoliation stimulates cellular turnover and may improve skin thickness. It also removes dead cells on top of your skin, allowing skin care products to transport key ingredients to their destination. The exfoliating phase provides one final opportunity to open up clogged pores before you move on to the other phases of your skin care routine.

3. Stimulate Cellular Performance

The skin-stimulating phase encourages the skin's own collagen-building machinery and repair mechanism to soften the look of lines and wrinkles. This is ideally done with a thin water-consistency serum, rich in ingredients that easily permeate the skin. This step does not feel particularly moisturizing and it may leave your skin feeling dry and tingly.

4. Build Lipid Barrier

The skin-building phase helps restore skin barrier functions by delivering essential nutrients. This is ideally done with lipid-based serums that contain high concentrations of lipid (fat) soluble vitamins, ceramides, antioxidants, retinol and essential fatty acids.

1. Build Lipid Barrier

Your first morning step should be a skin-building serum or cream to prevent water from exiting your skin and leaving it dry. Hydrated skin is healthy skin!

2. Protect & Correct

Your final morning step (and one of the most important steps in skincare) should be SPF 30 or 40 - rain or shine, summer and winter! 90% of skin aging is caused by daily sun exposure, and sunscreen is your secret weapon.
