Hello Hydration!

In the summertime it is a good idea to switch to lightweight textures in the daytime, like our EGF Essence and the newly launched Hydrating Cream. But that means at night you focus on deeper nourishment by building thin layers of hydrating skincare products to maximise their effect. On warm summer nights, we recommend applying 2 drops of our plant-based EGF Serum to freshly cleansed skin and then layering the Hydrating Cream on top. This duo will not feel heavy when layered and they really work well together.

In fact, in a recent in-house scientific study, where the participants applied the Hydrating Cream on top of the EGF Serum twice daily, the team of scientists at BIOEFFECT HQ observed this combination:

• Increased moisture levels by 103% in only 2 applications
• That boost in moisturization kept increasing and after 4 applications the moisture levels had increased by 141%

The key to this increased effectiveness is the synergy of ingredients. In particular, how Barley EGF works with Hyaluronic Acid and the other moisturising ingredients to maximise skin hydration, reinforce the skin barrier, and help seal in the moisture for long lasting results. Barley EGF is an important skin replenishing ingredient and we have spoken in great deal about its ability to minimise signs of skin ageing. But it is also a vital component in skin hydration, as it encourages the production of Hyaluronic Acid, enabling the skin to stay hydrated for much longer. As most of you know, Hyaluronic Acid has amazing restorative abilities and can boost skin’s moisture content and defend against moisture loss – because it can hold up to 1,000 times its own weight in water. It really is an optimal hydrator for all skin types.

Have you tried layering the EGF Serum with the Hydrating Cream?
