The Best way to Hydrate Skin

To Protect and Nourish the Skin for Renewal and Growth 

Dry skin. Uneven skin tone. Breakouts. Fine Lines and Wrinkles. They are all symptoms of compromised barrier function of the skin.  

Hydrating the skin may help address the symptoms, but is that enough? What’s the best way to keep the skin at its best? 

Cleansing and Exfoliation

Prepare the skin to receive hydration properly. Dirt, oil, makeup, and dead skin cells all get in the way of getting hydration, moisturizers and nourishment to your skin. Stop wasting your products on hydrating the layer of dirt, oil, makeup and dead skin cells on your skin!

Using the double cleansing method with products like the Metrin Skincare Double Cleansing Duo to remove dirt, oil, makeup and dead skin cells gently and daily, is the best method to cleanse and exfoliate your skin without irritating your skin (which causes other unwanted problems).

When the skin is properly cleansed and bare, barriers that prevent skin care products from penetrating deeply are removed. Also, removing dead skin cells reduces extra surface areas where the skin can lose its moisture and it greatly improves the skin’s barrier function – its ability to retain moisture.  

The Best Way to Hydrate the Skin – Hydration through Skin Care Layering

Skin care layering is the practice of layering multiple skincare products on top of each other in a specific order to maximize their benefits and effectiveness. The idea behind skin care layering is to apply products in the correct order, allowing each product to penetrate and absorb into the skin before applying the next. 

Though skin care layering may seem like a new skin care trend, the Metrin Skin Care System has been using the skin care layering process in its skin care routine since 1932. It’s the best skin care routine with over 90 years of proven results, loved by its devoted customers. And, its backed with a 6 month money back guarantee – even if you’ve used the products to the last drop.   

Skin care layering increases the delivery of nourishment like Vitamin E, C, A, D and K, essential fatty acids and amino acids, to the skin. Through repeat application of the skin care layering process, dosage is increased while improving absorption, and ultimately multiplying the effectiveness of each product and their ingredients. 

The Perfect Metrin Trifecta

For example, if you apply the #3 Metrin Vita Conditioner to your skin after double cleansing, it delivers hydration and non-pore clogging lipids (which help the skin against moisture loss) and nutrients like vitamins, amino acids and anti-oxidants  deep into the skin. It also functions as a base to help bond the layers of skin care products that follow, creating a serum directly on the surface of your skin.  

Applying the #4 Protective Lotion next delivers skin healing ingredients which help the skin recover and renew. It also helps reduce excess bacteria growth. By layering this lotion, it further enhances the skin’s ability to deeply absorb active nutrients delivered by the final skin layering step, the #5 Enriched Vita Conditioner. The final step also helps lock in all the nourishing ingredients delivered in the preceding skin care layering steps.  

Therefore, in addition to being the best way to hydrate your skin, skin care layering improves the delivery of nourishing ingredients and also helps to prevent the breakdown of those ingredients over time. By layering antioxidants formulated in the products, you can help to protect them from oxidation and prevent them from breaking down or losing their efficacy. Overall, skin care layering is a proven effective way to increase the delivery of hydration and nourishment to your skin and promote healthy, radiant-looking skin.

It’s the best way to hydrate the skin. And to protect and nourish your skin’s renewal!
