Crème d’Eau, Baume-en-Eau, Gel d’Eau… These innovative names are appearing on skincare packaging. Far from mere marketing buzzwords, they describe groundbreaking textures inspired by Asian cosmetics. On skin contact, they transform into water. This 'quick break' technology relies on ultra-sensitive polymers for an instant burst of freshness on the epidermis, as David Michel, International Group Manager at Uriage, explains. Ideal for summer hydration!
The versatility shines: suitable for every skin type—choose gel or serum for combination/oily skin, cream for normal, and balm for dry. 'Care-in-water' replaces your daily cream year-round or seasonally, pairing seamlessly with serums and eye creams. Best for daytime refreshment, but evening application works too.
