Your Hydra³ expert routine
An expert five-step range for a splash of active, immediate and long-lasting hydration.
PREPARE
Morning and/or evening, start by preparing the skin to receive its moisturizing ritual by spraying Hydra³ Mist onto the face from a distance of about 15 cm, with eyes closed, and on the body if necessary. Instantly soothing, moisturizing, and makeup-setting, it can also be used throughout the day to refresh your complexion.
UNIFY
Continue by massaging a few pumps of Hydra³ Booster onto the face and neck, avoiding the eye area. This ultra-fresh gel moisturizes evenly, plumps, and refines the skin texture.
EXTEND
For skin plumped with moisture, continue the ritual by applying Hydra³ Charging Cream to the entire face and neck. Fresh and silky, it moisturizes the skin for 72 hours and revives the complexion.
TARGET
Morning and/or evening, continue with Hydra³ Contour, applying small dabs to the delicate eye contour area. Its active gel texture regulates hydration throughout the day, to rehydrate, smooth and refresh the eye area.
INFUSE
Once or twice a week, or as an intensive treatment every day for a week, apply Hydra³ Mask in a thick layer to the face, avoiding the eye area. Leave on for 20 minutes, then rinse with water or a damp cloth. A truly hydrating bath for the skin that lasts even after rinsing, with its protective “velcro” texture.

Frequently asked questions
Our beauty experts answer your questions
What is the difference between dry skin and dehydrated skin?
Although they feel similar, these are two different skin conditions which do not have the same cause, and must be treated differently. Dry skin is a skin type that does not produce enough sebum, and therefore lacks lipids. The thinner the skin barrier, the less protection it provides. This skin type needs rich textures to restore the hydrolipidic film. Dehydrated skin is only a temporary condition that affects all skin types, even the oiliest, and at any age. When dealing with daily micro-aggression, the water flow crossing the three skin barriers is disrupted, leading to discomfort and a lack of radiance. The skin is thirsty, it needs to be quenched, but its water losses also need to be slowed, and compensated for when necessary.
What is the innovation in the Hydra³ range?
Hydra³ transforms the basic act of hydration into a scientific exploit, by acting simultaneously on the three skin barriers—microbiological, chemical and physical—that are responsible for water flow balance. The collection does not just provide water: it limits evaporation and compensates for water loss in the skin. What is its secret? A revolutionary fermented gentian extract derived from green biotechnology combined with ultra high-performance hygroscopic ingredients including Triple DNA derived from salmon, a Valmont signature ingredient and the cosmetic version of injectable PDRNs, and an exclusive multi-molecular-weight hyaluronic acid complex. The skin receives a splash of intense and long-lasting hydration, which lasts up to 72 hours after application.
*PolyNucleotides / PolyDeoxyRiboNucleotides
From what age is the Hydra³ collection recommended?
Dehydration is a temporary condition that affects all skin types, at any age. The Hydra³ collection is perfectly suited for dull, uncomfortable skin or skin that lacks suppleness, both before and after 30 years of age. Fermented gentian extract combined with triple DNA strengthens and protects the three skin barriers, leaving the skin intensely and lastingly hydrated for up to 72 hours. For effective anti-aging hydration, we recommend adapting your hydration routine by combining it with products from our Hydra³ Regenetic collection, which is suitable for more mature skin.
Are Hydra³ products suitable for men?
Dehydration is not a skin type but a universal temporary condition that can occur at any age. While all the products in the Hydra³ range can be used by men, we particularly recommend Hydra3 Contour, a watery eye contour gel with a smoothing effect and an imperceptible feel. It provides long-lasting hydration to the contour and refreshes the eyes while visibly reducing the appearance of dehydration lines.
How do you use a face and body mist to set makeup?
Morning and/or evening, start by preparing the skin by spraying Hydra³ Mist onto the body or face, from a distance of about 15 cm, with eyes closed. It soothes the skin instantly leaving a non-sticky veil, and is an ideal makeup base. Continue the ritual by applying Hydra³ Booster serum and Hydra³ Charging Cream before your usual makeup. Reapply during the day to revive complexion radiance or fix makeup touchups.
Are Hydra³ products available in Valmont spas?
Yes, they are part of the Hydration of the Bisses ritual, built around expert lymphatic drainage techniques to stimulate water flow and give the skin a splash of hydration that is both visible and felt from the very first treatment.
