When your skin is in need of repair, it’s important to know whether you’re dealing with dehydration (a lack of water) or dryness (a lack of oil). This helps you choose the right support for your skin. Fuca’s Hyaluronic Rescue Serum is formulated for dehydrated skin, while the Ceramide Repair Oil is designed for dry skin — and together, they create the ultimate moisture rescue. Here’s how they differ, and how to spot which one your skin is craving:

 

How to tell the difference between dehydrated skin and dry skin:

• Signs of Dehydrated Skin (needs water):
  • Feels tight, dull, or lacklustre
  • Fine lines look more pronounced (“ dehydration lines”)
  • Makeup sits unevenly or looks patchy
  • Can feel oily & tight at the same time
• Signs of Dry Skin (needs oil):
  • Feels rough, flaky, or itchy
  • Persistent dryness even after applying moisturiser
  • Lacks glow and feels uncomfortable
  • More prone to sensitivity or redness

 

1. Primary function & skin benefit

• Hyaluronic Rescue Serum is a potent hydrating serum, built to deliver moisture deep into the skin using three molecular weights of hyaluronic acid. It’s formulated to attract and hold water, increase skin plumpness, and reduce transepidermal water loss (TEWL).  
• Ceramide Repair Oil is a lipid-rich barrier-repair oil. It’s designed to replenish the skin’s lipid layer, support barrier integrity, and protect against moisture loss — all while giving a touch of glow and softening the surface.  

2. Key actives

• Hyaluronic Rescue Serum uses three types of hyaluronic acid to hydrate at different skin depths. It also includes niacinamide and provitamin B5 to strengthen barrier function and calm skin.  
• Ceramide Repair Oil uses ceramides plus ten nutrient-dense, non-comedogenic oils (pumpkin seed, jojoba, raspberry seed, etc.) to replenish the lipid matrix, deliver antioxidants, and support repair.

Because one is more water-attracting and the other is oil-based, they complement each other rather than compete.

3. Texture & feel

• Hyaluronic Rescue Serum is lightweight, non-sticky, and absorbs quickly — made to layer under other products.  
• Ceramide Repair Oil is richer, silky, and meant to feel luxurious on the skin as a finishing step. But because it uses light oils and non-comedogenic ingredients, it doesn’t feel heavy or clog pores.  

4. When & how to use one (or both)

• Use Hyaluronic Rescue Serum right after cleansing (and after any toners). It preps the skin, boosts hydration, and primes your barrier for what’s next.
• After the serum has absorbed (~60 seconds), follow with Ceramide Repair Oil. It helps seal in that hydration, supports barrier repair, and provides a luminous finish.  
• You might use only one when your skin is less stressed (e.g. just Hyaluronic Rescue Serum on a normal day), but when your skin is dehydrated, compromised, or needs “rescue,” using both in sequence gives you “hydrate + reinforce.”

5. Which skin types / concerns benefit most

• Hyaluronic Rescue Serum is excellent for dehydrated, tight, and parched skin. Also beneficial for those who want a fast-absorbing base without heaviness.
• Ceramide Repair Oil is ideal for skin that needs lipid replenishment: dry, aging, barrier-compromised, or post-procedure skin. Because it’s non-comedogenic (<2 rating for oils) and formulated without irritating additives, it can suit sensitive skin too.
• Together: for skin that wants deep hydration but also barrier protection (especially in harsh climates, indoor heating, or after treatments), this pairing is powerful.

 

Bottom Line  

• If you had to pick one:
   → Dehydrated skin?  Go with Hyaluronic Rescue Serum.
   → Dry skin? Go with Ceramide Repair Oil.
• If your skin is under strain (dryness, environmental stress, barrier damage), use them together: hydrate deeply with the serum, then lock in with the oil.
• Always layer from lighter → heavier (Hyaluronic Rescue Serum → Ceramide Repair Oil) for best absorption and effect.
