Water-Free Formulations
Take a look at ingredient listings the next time you are shopping for skincare, and you will notice that “water/aqua” is usually listed at the top of the ingredient list for most skincare products.
While it may seem instinctual to treat dry skin with water, did you know that H2O can actually exacerbate the condition by increasing dryness and causing chapping?
Consider instead a product that does not have water added to it, as an oil-based product can be much more moisturizing and nourishing, especially for skin that is parched. In addition, less water means increased space for the inclusion of more of the power-packed ingredients your skin craves!
Water-free formulations are also particularly beneficial during cold, winter months, as the H20 in your skincare can actually freeze on the skin in frigid temperatures. As a former World Cup Champion and 10x Austrian Champion Alpine Skier, Retrouvé co-founder Klaus Heidegger knows this all too well. When on the slopes or participating in any cold-weather outdoor activity, he recommends switching to skincare formulations that do not have water added to them, “My favorite is the Intensive Replenishing Facial Moisturizer, as it helps to guard against damage to the skin barrier, provides hydration, nourishment, and comfort to the complexion, and features a high-performance blend of potent ingredients that will not freeze on the skin and are not diluted by water.”
