Ben Stiller’s 2001 fashion comedy romp Zoolander has gifted the modern world with perhaps some of the best pop culture references and quotable quotes ever. Besides the Blue Steel, walk-off and so-got-right-now rival, there stands one gem of a line that is so notable not just for its surreal hilarity, but also its undeniable truth: “Moisture is the essence of wetness, and wetness is the essence of beauty.”
Any dermatologist, aesthetician or skincare junkie worth their salt would agree that hydration is the single most important factor the skin requires to remain healthy and function optimally, keeping issues like premature ageing, wrinkles and pigmentation at bay longer. Beauty solutions marketed to women constantly stress the importance of boosting the skin’s moisture levels, because the more hydrated your skin, the better it is at absorbing the beneficial ingredients of a moisturiser.
