What Is Hydrogel and Why Is It Great for Skincare?

Do you know the active ingredients in your favorite skincare products — or what ingredients to look for when searching for new products? While most people know that hyaluronic acid and collagen are beneficial for the skin, there are some other great ingredients that don’t get the same attention. Hydrogel is one of those ingredients.
Here’s why you should start looking for products that contain hydrogel.
What is Hydrogel?
Hydrogel is a unique water-based gel that can hold up to 500 times its weight in water. Without going too much into the complicated science side of things, hydrogel is used in some of the best skincare products because its molecular structure is identical to our skin cells. If you use a skincare product that contains hydrogel, all of the other beneficial ingredients inside the product will perform better.
Hydrogel is loved by experts in the beauty and wellness industry because it seals every ingredient into the skin — ensuring you get the most out of your skincare routine. The best skin care routines include a product that contains hydrogel because it enhances the benefits of every other ingredient!
Doppeltree Products With Hydrogel
The most popular products containing hydrogel are face masks. Our Anti-Wrinkle & Rejuvenating Gold Facial Mask has a hydrogel base that acts as the pathway for all the nutrients in the product to transfer directly into the dermis (the thickest layer of skin). Hydrogel face masks have become incredibly popular in the beauty industry because they provide instant results. While celebrities Get Runway Ready with Gold Facial Masks, everyone else uses them to ensure their skin is glowing for big events.
Celebrity facialist Nichola Joss says, “They’re a great tool for adding radiance. You can massage on top of the mask to really push the ingredients deeper into the skin. These types of masks have a high moisture content alongside excellent moisturizing properties.” We encourage you to gently massage our Anti-Wrinkle & Rejuvenating Gold Facial Masks into your skin to allow the nano-active gold, collagen, vitamin C, and hyaluronic acid to go to work.
You don’t need access to the best celebrity facial to achieve your skincare goals. You could give yourself a 5-star treatment with an at-home face mask! Doppeltree also offers Rejuvenating Under Eye Masks if you’d like to focus on revitalizing the area underneath your eyes.
