Numerous factors can contribute to dehydrated skin by disrupting the skin's natural water regulation mechanisms. All skin types are prone to dehydration. How can you tell if your skin is dehydrated? Dehydrated skin is characterized by feelings of discomfort and tightness, especially on the face. Your skin may become dull and lose its healthy glow.

Hydrabio: helping skin adapt to everyday challenges
When subjected to different types of stress – including variations in temperature and humidity (heating and air conditioning), pollution, stress and sport – the skin becomes more fragile, and its barrier function can be affected. The skin loses water and, as the day progresses, becomes tighter and less radiant.
To make your skin more comfortable and your complexion more radiant, you need an effective protocol for hydrated, radiant skin. Hydrabio is the first hydro-active range to help your skin adapt to the stresses of daily life — we like to call it “life-proof” hydration.
Our skincare range for dehydrated skin is designed according to the principles of ecobiology: favor biomimetic ingredients, respect the skin ecosystem before visible signs. In line with this demanding approach, Hydrabio has developed a new 2-stage action mode:
- Recharge and maximize the skin's water resources with High Molecular Weight hyaluronic acid (HMW) and patented AQUAGENIUM+ technology*
- Reinforce the skin's barrier function to keep water inside the skin with niacinamide and a prebiotic sugar that nourishes
Discover our hydrating skincare protocol to restore comfort and radiance to dehydrated skin.

1. Cleansing dehydrated skin
Cleansing is the first step in any hydrating skincare for radiant skin. That is why it is essential to choose a cleanser specially formulated for the needs of dehydrated skin. BIODERMA's Hydrabio range includes two cleansers and make-up removers for daily use, depending on your preferences and habits. Gentle moisturizing cleansers are the basis for an effective hydrating skincare that respect the skin's balance and radiance.
