Skin's pH influences hydration

Picture
Our skin’s pH plays an important role in many processes influencing skin hydration.

Increased pH (more alkaline >6) values correspond with an increase in trans-epidermal water loss, which we refer to in studies as TEWL, one of the most significant indicators of a good epidermal barrier function. The epidermal barrier protects our skin against (excessive) loss of water and thus protects the maintenance of correct hydration. The skin pH promotes the correct organization of the matrix lipids too, by regulating their surface structure and stability. All leading up to better hydrated skin.

​It makes sense to pay attention to pH when buying your cleansing and care products. 

​Hope you enjoy healthy skin & take care.
