Among this network of proteins, there is a gel-like substance, which has a huge amount of water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When our skin becomes dehydrated, the structural proteins are put under more stress, resulting in a loss of consistency that visually appears as fine lines and wrinkles on the outside of the skin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Therefore, the first and necessary step in anti-aging, but also in maintaining skin health, is hydration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you want a moisturizer that offers the skin the necessary hydration without weighing it down and leaving a feeling of greasiness, then we recommend Best Seller Velvet Moisturizing Face Cream.<br><br>Made from organic olive oil from Crete, regenerating almond oil and hyaluronic acid, it replenishes the skin's moisture levels and gives it incredible softness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/aurakritis.gr\/product\/velvet-hydration\/\">DISCOVER THE VELVETY HYDRATION<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<figure><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"534\" height=\"39\" class=\"wp-image-2431\" style=\"width: 304px; height: 22px;\" src=\"https:\/\/aurakritis.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/V7-Decorative-line.png\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/aurakritis.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/V7-Decorative-line.png 534w, https:\/\/aurakritis.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/V7-Decorative-line-370x27.png 370w, https:\/\/aurakritis.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/V7-Decorative-line-300x22.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 534px) 100vw, 534px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong>Cleaning<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cleansing the face can lead to the emergence of brighter and clearer skin, or... the complete opposite!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Among the keratinocytes of the skin, there are lipids that act as our defenders!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They prevent water evaporation, maintain skin consistency and help in the movement of substances in the skin.
