Transepidermal water loss

Transepidermal water loss

You know that feeling when you wake up to very dry skin, drawn features and chapped lips? It's called transepidermal water loss: the process by which water escapes from our skin. Although this is perfectly normal, it can sometimes be difficult for your skin to regain its equilibrium. This water loss makes it more susceptible to fine dehydration lines, marks more easily, looks dull and can even cause blemishes.


When is this loss greatest?


Like almost all our body functions, transepidermal water loss is linked to what we call our chronobiological rhythm. In general, water loss is greatest at night, when your skin works hardest. If you also sleep with electric heating, the water will escape even faster. Air is like a sponge: if it's dry, it will seek out the moisture around it. That's why you need to reinforce your skin barrier to prevent water from escaping.


How can I strengthen my skin barrier?

 

To protect your skin from this phenomenon, you need to strengthen your epidermis by forming a protective film on your skin. Before going to bed, a double cleansing with our make-up remover oil will leave your skin feeling more comfortable, without drying it out.

After cleansing, apply our anti-thirst serum to give your skin a shot of hydration. This will enable your skin to maintain a good level of hydration. Then apply a few drops of our night oil. It will seal in the serum's active ingredients and form a protective film for your skin. The oil will act as an anti-dehydration shield for your skin.
