What is the difference between a moisturizing and nourishing day cream?
A moisturizing day cream provides water to the skin thanks to humectant active ingredients such as hyaluronic acid or glycerin. It is suitable for skin dehydrated, often subject to pulling or a dull complexion. A nourishing cream, on the other hand, enriched with lipids (butters, vegetable oils, ceramides), strengthens the skin barrier and restores the hydrolipidic film. It is intended for dry or weakened skin, which lacks comfort and shows signs of flaking. Depending on the skin's needs, these two functions can be combined in a complete formula.
Why include a day cream in your skincare routine?
Day cream protects the skin from daily external aggressions: pollution, oxidative stress, climatic variations. It forms a hydrating shield that maintains skin balance throughout the day. By strengthening the skin barrier, it prevents signs of fatigue, dehydration and the first signs of aging. It also allows makeup to last longer. Chosen according to skin type and needs, it optimizes the overall effectiveness of the skincare routine by acting in synergy with the serum or targeted treatments applied upstream.
