Abstract

Moisturization is a very well-known and essential need for skin care. Nowadays, classic hydration strategies are supplemented with new approaches to support the skin in achieving its moisturizing mechanisms. In this article, we present an overall strategy based on two pillars: caring and strengthening the skin. Thereby, we will elucidate the roles of Natural Moisturizing Factors, hyaluronic acid, ceramides and filaggrin within this overarching strategy on the basis of four specific products from the Symrise portfolio acting on these essential components: Hydroviton® PLUS, SymGlucan®, SymRepair® 100 and SymReboot™ L19.
