Dehydration and dry skin can be caused by many different factors: skin aging, cold weather, travel, hormonal changes, air conditioning, central heating, etc.
These changes can result in an increase in TEWL (transepidermal water loss), a process in which water rises to the skin’s surface and escapes, resulting in low moisture levels in the skin. HEO Mask is designed to address the visible signs of dryness and dehydration, while supporting the skin’s natural barrier for improved long-term hydration.
Humectants act as moisture magnets, drawing in water to rehydrate, smooth and plump skin. HEO Mask contains multi-weight Hyaluronic Acid, Glycerin and Natural Moisturizing Factors (NMF) which replenish lost water by creating a reservoir of hydration in the upper layers of the skin.
Glyceryl Glucoside helps stimulate moisture channels to increase water flow through the skin's layers, while Blue Sea Kale supports the skin's natural production of Hyaluronic Acid, to help boost skin's long-term hydration levels.
Soothing ingredients squalane, ceramides and linoleic acid (vitamin F) use their skin-identical, oil-loving properties to glide effortlessly into the skin's natural barrier, filling in any gaps where moisture can escape while deeply nourishing skin.
Occlusive dimethicone is made up of larger molecules than the other key ingredients, meaning it works to form a breathable barrier over the skin's surface to lock in the benefits of the moisturizing and emollient ingredients, while physically preventing TEWL.
