How to Get Dewy Skin

April 4th, 2024By Team SymbiomeScientific Review by Juliana Durack and Larry Weiss

What is Dewy Skin?

Dewy skin has an incredible chokehold over the skincare community. This coveted complexion is defined by a natural radiance that exudes vitality and health, not just from a surface level but from a deep cellular level. Dewy skin encompasses visible hydration and suppleness, a freshness and a softness, and ultimately a look that appears effortless. In order to unlock skin’s full potential, however, effort is exactly what it takes to achieve dewy doughnut status.

Dewy Skincare Routine

Cleanser

Setting a fresh foundation is make or break for your dewy skin dreams. And although cleansing is second nature for most people, we’ve yet to dispel the fallacy that “any cleanser will do.” Bucketing all cleansers is harmful for skin health, and harsh ingredients hidden in these vanilla formulations has left many a skin barrier damaged, dehydrated and depleted of essential microbes. The solution to a nourished foundation is the combination of an oil-based cleanser and a non-stripping water-based cleanser. Oil attracts oil (excess sebum), impurities and build-up in pores, and melts away makeup residue. The Renewal Daily Cleanser is a luxurious and rich gel to purify the skin and enrich the barrier with vitamins and fatty acids. Following with The Reset Clarifying Cleanser takes your ritual to the next level. If two cleansers sounds like a lot, just know that this gentle foam rids skin of acne causing bacteria and refreshes your skin in preparation of serum and subsequent skincare steps.

Exfoliate

Finding a healthy balance with exfoliation is the next step towards dewy skin. In our modern world, we are subjected to environmental stressors and pollutants which can both exacerbate skin conditions and cause congestion. Regular, but not excessive, exfoliation is key to maintaining smooth, radiant skin. Our experts encourage chemical exfoliation, in the form of lactic or glycolic acid for those who want to promote cellular turnover, and salicylic acid to combat oxidized sebum (blackheads). The delicate nature of dewy skin is that you must avoid overdoing exfoliation, otherwise sensitization, redness and barrier damage can occur – hindering your dewiness.

Serum

Spoiler: It takes more than hyaluronic acid. If you’re serious about preserving collagen and maintaining deep hydration in your skin then you need a highly researched and potent treatment serum that has naturally-occurring hyaluronic acid, antioxidants, and copious reparative compounds. The Answer serum is one such product: formulated with a 50% concentration of peptides and growth factors, you can maintain healthy collagen, even skin tone, and soothe and condition skin all in one. Your skin will be luminous and your future self will thank you.

Moisturizer

Retaining and replenishing moisture to your skin yields that dewy look. Your moisturizer should have essential vitamins, fatty acids, and a postbiotic blend to help enrich your microbiome, plump skin, and hydrate your complexion. The transformative Biointact™ emulsion of The One Cream absorbs deeply, revealing radiance from the moment of application.

Eye Cream

The delicate skin around the eyes requires targeted care to maintain a smooth appearance and prevent accelerated signs of aging. Any eye product that you use consistently will do, but we recommend The Luminary Replenishing Eye Cream for its natural retinoids, caffeine and fast-acting acids. Help reduce the appearance of fine lines, dark circles, and puffiness, with daily use.

Sunscreen & Face Oil

The benefits of sunscreen are copious. Talk to any dermatologist and you’ll understand that in the pursuit of dewy skin, it’s a daily requirement. In the morning, apply a broad-spectrum or mineral sunscreen to shield your skin from harmful UV rays. At night, indulge in the luxurious Rewind003 Age-Defying Face Oil, our precious and potent blend of skin soothing botanicals. This silky formula will have you waking up refreshed and with exceptionally soft skin.

Lifestyle Changes for Dewy Skin.

Drink Water

Hydration, and dehydration, show up on your skin. Be sure to drink an adequate amount of water throughout the day to keep your skin free of pronounced fine lines.

Eat Healthy Fats

Incorporate omega-3 fatty acids into your diet to nourish your skin from the inside out and promote a dewy complexion. Our favorites are foods like salmon, avocado, and nuts.

Stay Away from Processed Sugar

Consuming excessive amounts of processed or added sugar can contribute to inflammation and oxidative stress in the skin, leading to dullness and premature aging. Opt for natural sweeteners and limit your intake of sugary foods and beverages if possible.

Prioritize Sleep

Quality sleep is essential for proper skin regeneration. Aim for 7-9 hours of restful sleep each night to allow your skin to undergo critical repair and wake up with a refreshed, resilient complexion.
