Why Hydration Is Key to Long-Lasting Makeup

Flawless , long-lasting makeup relies on a solid foundation: skin hydration . Well-nourished and hydrated skin plays a fundamental role in the hold and radiance of makeup. Here's why this step is essential for a flawless complexion all day long.

Hydration and nutrition: two distinct but complementary needs

Before explaining why hydration is so important, it is essential to understand the difference between hydration and nutrition .

• Hydration is the process of adding water to the skin. Moisturizing products, such as hyaluronic acid serums, plump the skin and prevent it from drying out.

• Nutrition , for its part, provides lipids (fat) to strengthen the skin barrier and prevent water from evaporating too quickly.

Skin can be dry (lack of oil), dehydrated (lack of water) or both at the same time. To ensure long-lasting makeup , it is important to meet both needs by choosing the right skincare products.

1. Well-hydrated skin sets makeup better

When your skin is dehydrated, it tries to compensate by absorbing moisture from the products you apply, including your makeup. As a result, your foundation, concealer, or blush are quickly absorbed, leaving uneven skin and a dull complexion. Conversely, well-hydrated skin acts as a protective base that prevents this excessive absorption and allows your makeup to stay on the surface, providing better adhesion and longer wear.

➡️ Product recommendations:

• Hydrating serum with hyaluronic acid to deeply plump the skin.

• Moisturizing fluid , perfect for sensitive skin prone to dehydration.

2. Hydrated skin prevents dry patches

Makeup tends to accentuate imperfections when skin lacks moisture. Dry patches, flakes, and rough patches become particularly visible, creating a cakey effect that compromises the natural look of makeup. Hydration keeps skin supple, limiting the appearance of these dry patches and promoting a smooth, even finish.

➡️ Product recommendations:

• Cream rich in ceramides to repair the skin barrier.

• Intense hydrating mask to be applied once a week to soothe and nourish dry areas.

3. Hydration boosts the complexion’s radiance

Well-hydrated skin is naturally plumper, supple, and luminous. The water present in skin tissues allows it to optimally reflect light, which creates that sought-after glowing effect. Without hydration, skin appears dull, tired, and loses its natural radiance. A luminous and even complexion therefore relies primarily on deep hydration.

➡️ Product recommendations:

• Illuminating serum enriched with vitamin C to boost radiance and revive the complexion.

• Refreshing hydrating mist to use during the day to maintain skin's luminosity.

🌟 The importance of a suitable routine

Hydration is essential for long-lasting makeup, but each skin type has specific needs. A tailored routine can optimize hydration and ensure a radiant, even finish throughout the day.
