Hydro-Gain: The game changer in men's skin care for maximum moisture
Shaving, environmental influences, office air, and exercise all challenge the barrier of men's skin. Effective men's skin care must therefore lock moisture deep into the skin and sustainably strengthen the protective layer. This is precisely where the active ingredient Hydro-Gain™ comes into play with its moisturizing effect.

Scientifically proven: Hydro-Gain provides more moisture than hyaluronic acid
Hydro-Gain is a 100% natural, COSMOS-certified active ingredient specifically developed to address the challenges of modern men's skincare. Clinical studies show that Hydro-Gain moisturizes the skin more effectively and for longer than conventional active ingredients such as glycerin or hyaluronic acid – with both short-term and long-term effects.
The special advantage lies in the unique triad of birch bark extract, prickly pear oil and hydrogenated lecithin:
- They specifically strengthen the skin’s lipid AND protein barrier.
- They increase the content of moisturizing factors (NMF) in the uppermost layers of the skin.
- The skin retains water more effectively – from the surface to the deep layers – and remains sustainably hydrated.

Hydro-Gain: How the moisture revolution in men's skin care works
1. Birch bark extract: Defender of the protein barrier
Birch bark is rich in triterpenes (such as betulin) and has been used for centuries for its protective properties. In modern men's skincare, it specifically strengthens the protein structure of the skin barrier, stimulates the formation of protective layers (cornified envelopes), and increases the production of natural moisturizing factors (NMF). The result: The skin remains noticeably elastic, resilient, and less susceptible to dryness or irritation.
2. Prickly pear oil: high-performance lipid with linoleic acid
Prickly pear oil provides an above-average amount of linoleic acid (around 70%) – an essential fatty acid for men's skin that strengthens the skin barrier's lipid film and counteracts inflammation. The oil retains moisture particularly long-lastingly, ensuring a healthy, smooth complexion without a greasy residue.
3. Hydrogenated lecithin: moisture booster and barrier building block
Hydrogenated lecithin, a skin-identical active ingredient, is becoming increasingly popular in men's skincare. Not only can it bind up to 20 water molecules per molecule, but it also acts as a "pro-osmolyte"—regenerating the lipid layers in the stratum corneum and actively contributing to repair after shaving or environmental influences.
What makes Hydro-Gain unique for men's skin care?
- Improved immediate and long-term effect: Skin moisture increases significantly after just one application – and remains significantly elevated even after 24 hours.
- Proven stronger skin barrier: Hydro-Gain significantly increases the proportion of proteins and lipids, as studies measuring stratum corneum thickness show.
- Holistic hydration concept: From the surface to the deeper layers – ideal for men who seek active care without compromise.
The conclusion: Hydro-Gain takes men's skin care to the next level
Hydro-Gain establishes a new category in men's skincare: scientifically sound, 100% natural, effective, and gentle at the same time. Anyone seeking innovative men's skincare will find Hydro-Gain a reliable key to hydrated, resilient, and well-cared-for skin.
