how electrolytes work in skincare

Share

Ever feel like your skin is running on empty—dull, stressed, and lacking glow? We’ve been there! Our new lightweight moisturizer Electrolyte Water Cream uses the power of electrolyte minerals (magnesium, sodium, and zinc) to deliver balanced hydration, visibly calm stressed skin, reduce the appearance of redness, and help plump and revitalize skin. So how do electrolytes work on the skin? Let’s break it down.

what are electrolytes, and how do they work on your skin?

Electrolytes are minerals that carry an electric charge and play a crucial role in various bodily functions and processes. They are essential for maintaining balance and helping your body function optimally. When applied to the skin, electrolytes help balance skin’s natural moisturizing factors (NMF), defend against environmental stressors, and improve skin barrier function. Let’s break down each of the electrolyte minerals in our electrolyte water cream: 

magnesium PCA: your skin’s energy booster

Magnesium is an essential mineral that helps with energy production, muscle function, and enzyme activation. In our Electrolyte Water Cream, magnesium PCA helps:

  • Revitalize dull, lackluster skin
  • Break the cycle of skin exhaustion, helping to restore radiance and vibrancy
  • Activate and optimize natural skin functions

sodium PCA:

Sodium PCA is all about balance. This mineral works as a natural humectant, attracting moisture and locking it into your skin to keep it hydrated, plump, and comfortable. By maintaining hydration over time, sodium PCA ensures your skin stays smooth and bouncy.

zinc PCA: 

Zinc PCA is a multitasking ingredient that tackles common skin concerns like irritation, oiliness, and sensitivity. It’s particularly effective for stressed or reactive skin, offering calming properties that reduce redness and visible signs of irritation. By controlling oil production, zinc PCA helps balance your skin, keeping shine at bay while supporting overall skin health and renewal.

why choose electrolytes?

If you’re wondering how electrolytes compare to other hydrators, think of them as the conductors of your skin’s hydration orchestra. While ingredients like beta glucan and ceramides are essential, electrolytes ensure they perform at their best by optimizing hydration levels and keeping skin in balance.

When you pair electrolyte water cream with other powerful humectants like Beta Glucan, which draw hydration into the skin, and Ceramides and Lipids, that lock it in and keep skin moisturized

kind skincare tip: When paired our ceramide barrier serum, you unlock a trifecta of hydration that goes the extra mile to keep skin bouncy and balanced.

the bottom line 

Electrolytes are more than just a buzzword—they truly deliver hydration that works harder to help calm and balance your skin!
