Hydration

Rehydrating skin is as vital as drinking water throughout the day! Dry skin is primarily caused by trans-epidermal water loss (TEWL); evaporation of water on the skin’s surface. Our technical team reviewed specific water and oil soluble phyto-compounds in publicly available peer reviewed literature that may be of interest to reduce TEWL. Explore the plant profiles below and trial to see how they translate in your next hydration formulation - mist, body drink, scalp spray, lotion, cream, etc.
