Skin Rehydration Body Formula


Contains: Moisture Magnets,Shea & Cocoa Butter Blend, Natural Glycerin

Hydrates dry, tired skin & relieves sunburn. Restores suppleness & softness Hydr8 Body has a fresh, silky texture that literally melts into the skin. Formulated to intensely condition and re-hydrate dry and chapped skin, with superior moisture control using our trademark Moisture Magnets nology. Hydr8 Body has a light, fresh fragrance, and leaves your skin revitalised with a natural glow.

Ideal for applying after sun exposure, or on skin exposed to the daily elements of air conditioned offices and drying winter winds. Hydr8 Body protects your skin from dehydration and nourishes the epidermis with a combination of shea and cocoa butters, our Moisture Magnets plus high concentrations of natural glycerin transforming skin feel into a silky texture you have to experience to believe.

The clinically proven active ingredients in Hydr8 body will hydrate skin where other creams simply cannot.
This is because in dry air, moisture from regular creams just evaporates in minutes following application. However, Hydr day acts like an active moisture-magnet - actually binding water to skin cells keeping the moisture locked in and your skin feeling soft and supple.

Hydr body locks water into the skin by connecting microscopic 'water-sponge molecules' to skin binding sites rather than just temporarily dampening cells, as ordinary moisturisers do. Unlike other moisture balance products, Hydr8 Body does not have a brief moisturising effect and does not inhibit the synthesis of lipid forming enzymes. In fact, Hydr8™ Body actives are so effective, the binding is only released by the natural shedding of skin cells and not merely by washing.

Moisture Magnet's acity for long-lasting moisture binding and retention makes Hydr8™ Body effective in dry air under low relative humidities.



Benefits

- Strong, long-lasting moisturisation
- Improves appearance of the skin after just 30 minutes of application

- Contains anti-irritant properties
- Minimises itching and flakiness
- Works under a wide range of conditions that traditional moisturisers cannot


 

Hydr Body has been formulated with cocoa butter, offering excellent occlusive moisturising benefits – effectively ‘sealing’ skin to ensure that no additional moisture is lost and the skin is given adequate time to heal itself. Additionally, Medik8’s unique Moisture Magnet™ binds water to the epidermis, ensuring that skin stays hydrated and comfortable. It has a natural affinity with the skin’s own moisture balance, ensuring that the epidermis’ delicate equilibrium is not disrupted.

Skin must be kept hydrated to ensure that the body's barrier function is never compromised.

The graph on the left demonstrates the excellent performance of Hydr Body at low humidities when compared to known moisturising agents such as glycerin. Where Hydr8™ Body really excels, though, is under difficult conditions, i.e. relative humidities of 20-50% and higher. It also moisturises more effectively for longer periods: in fact, it outperforms a host of occlusive barriers in comparative testing. So, with Hydr8™ Body, moisture stays in the skin long after traditional moisturisers flash off.

Medik8 is the British skin research company pioneering cosmeceutical technologies to make the most effective ingredients suitable for even the most sensitive skin, yet crucially without compromising efficacy. Medik8 cosmeceuticals may be used by everyone. Apart from being kinder to the skin, it turns out this new technology is kinder to the planet too. That's why Medik8 is known as the Green Cosmeceutical' brand. Most skin is sensitive, it is just to what degree that distinguishes it from others. A simple change of washing powder can demonstrate this. People of all ages and skin types can periodically suffer from sensitive skin, making them particularly susceptible to certain irritating cosmeceutical ingredients. In fact, those suffering from acne, rosacea or psoriasis usually have greater skin sensitivity, which can be exacerbated by some aggressive treatment products that they use. The challenge for Medik8 is to make effective ingredients less aggressive without reducing potency. We do this in many ways for example using film-encapsulation, chirally correct actives, non-acid derivatives and patented anti-erythema technologies. Of course, using any effective strength actives, for example retinols and fruit acids, will cause some stinging to even the toughest skins, but Medik8 pharmacologists have minimised the degree of irritation and in some cases made it absent all together. No longer are the most powerful and effective ingredients beyond the reach of people who want the gain without the pain! And who doesn't want that? Ask your skin care professional about what Medik8 can do for you.
