These stones which promote good hydration of your skin

Why should you moisturize your skin?

The skin is made up of 70% water. This water plays an essential role at the skin level : it protects the epidermis , which functions as a barrier , and gives it all its elasticity and suppleness .

However, the skin of the face is exposed daily to external aggressions : temperature changes, pollution or even the sun's rays. These attacks damage the hydrolipidic film (a protective film, located in the upper layers of the epidermis). When it is damaged, it lets the water contained in the skin escape more easily. Result: it dries out and loses that baby skin look that we love so much.

Staying well hydrated will also allow you to:

• Avoid dull complexion
• Slow down skin aging
• Avoid drying out

Moisturizing your face is therefore an essential step to plump the skin from the inside but also to strengthen its barrier and protective function . The moisturizing creams offered on the cosmetic market are numerous and full of promise. However, their composition is not always transparent and safe.

We therefore invite you to discover how to properly hydrate and plump your skin using a simple and natural method: lithotherapy. Here is an overview of the best stones to benefit from these effects.
