BECAUSE THERMAL WATER IS GOOD FOR THE SKIN
«The thermal water is able to favor the reduction of skin and skin reactivity improve the quality of the skin surface “, explains Dr. Massimo Alotto, surgeon specialist in dermatology and venereology at the Bios SpA group in Rome.
Thermal water is indicated for the treatment of countless epidermal problems «such as chronic eczema, atopic dermatitis, psoriasis of adults and children, problems of scarring and after-effects of burns, anti-acne therapy and chronic itching. It is also highly beneficial after sun exposure ”», adds the expert.
«The combined action of all the minerals present in it guarantees an enormous amount of benefits for the skin: keeps the skin hydrated, oxygenated, compact and toned; helps skin regeneration; stimulates the production of new cells “.
The thermal water is taken directly from the source. «L’Eau Thermale Avène, for example, has a unique composition due to its double heritage, mineral and biological. This is because, being collected, it is not treated to avoid altering the organoleptic characteristics and is immediately bottled at the source in sterile containers, to protect it from any bacterial contamination ».
HOW TO USE THERMAL WATER IN THE BEAUTY ROUTINE
The paths of thermal water are infinite (or almost). Its uses in the daily beauty routine are varied and all effective. For example, you can use together with cleanser to clean skin, replacing it with tap water.
«It would be good to do this especially if the water in the place where we live has too high a quantity of calcium which can leave the skin dry. Using thermal water will give the skin more hydration », adds Dr. Massimo Alotto.
Using it as a tonic is also a winning solution. «We recommend applying the thermal water morning and evening, after normal cleansing, in order to stimulate natural cell turnover, increase brightness and reduce redness “.
Finally, it can prove to be an excellent ally of creams and treatments, increasing their action and benefits. There are many supporters of the wet face on which to apply cosmetics: a serum or cream on slightly wet skin, after having nebulized the thermal water, will allow the active ingredients to penetrate more.
Sprinkling the face with thermal water immediately after applying a product is also advisable. «Using thermal water immediately after applying a cream or a treatment greatly enhances its benefits. In fact, it creates a protective layer that allows the active ingredients contained in the creams or serums not to disperse and to penetrate better », concludes the dermatology specialist Massimo Alotto.
