Every transformation begins somewhere. For ARQÉ, that beginning is hydration — not as a simple skincare step, but as the architectural foundation of healthy, radiant skin. Hydration shapes the way your skin feels, functions and responds. It is the point where change becomes visible.
This is why the ARQÉ ritual begins with Hydrate Serum. It is the formula that prepares the skin for everything that follows. It is the first step your skin remembers.
WHY HYDRATION COMES BEFORE EVERYTHING ELSE
Hydration refers to water within the skin. When hydration falls, the skin becomes dull, textured, tight, reactive and visibly tired. Moisture, however, refers to lipids — the oils that keep hydration from escaping.
Hydrate Serum restores the water the skin needs. The ARQÉ creams and oils then work to seal that hydration in. Together, they create a complete system that supports strength, refinement and radiance.
INSIDE HYDRATE SERUM: A PRECISE COMPOSITION OF HIGH-PERFORMANCE ACTIVES
Hydrate Serum blends advanced hydration technology with clinically respected actives and refined botanical extracts.
4D Hyaluronic Complex
A multi-weight network of hyaluronic molecules that attract and hold water in multiple layers of the skin, delivering a plump, smooth, hydrated appearance.
Polyglutamic Acid
A powerful moisture-retaining polymer that enhances the skin’s ability to hold hydration, amplifying the effects of the hyaluronic complex.
Niacinamide
A brightening and refining essential that supports barrier function, improves clarity and enhances the skin’s ability to retain moisture.
Botanical Extracts
Ginseng, licorice root, centella, green tea, white tea, fruit extracts and aloe leaf provide antioxidant support, comfort and clarity, helping the skin feel balanced and revitalised.
Soothing and Conditioning Agents
Panthenol, allantoin and hydrolysed collagen soften, smooth and calm the skin, supporting comfort and daily resilience.
Aloe Leaf Juice
Delivers immediate hydration and contributes to a fresh, revitalised feel.
This is not a trendy formula. It is a structural one — designed to support skin health at every level.
SIGNATURE VS PURE: TWO EXPERIENCES, ONE IDENTICAL FORMULA
Signature Edition
A subtle aromatic profile transforms hydration into a sensorial moment. A pause. A breath. A deeper ritual.
Pure Edition
Fragrance-free for those with sensitivity or those who prefer absolute simplicity. Quiet. Clean. Essential.
Both versions share the same advanced formula. Only the sensory experience differs.

WHY HYDRATE SERUM HAS BECOME A CULT ESSENTIAL
Clients love Hydrate Serum because it provides what skin needs every day: improved texture, a smoother surface, increased luminosity, and better performance from follow-on products. It delivers hydration without heaviness and refinement without complexity.
Professionals rely on it for the same reasons. It creates a foundation that allows both simple and advanced routines to work at their highest potential.
Hydrate Serum is not just the beginning. It is the architecture that supports the ARQÉ ritual from start to finish.
THE FIRST STEP INTO ARQÉ
If you are new to ARQÉ, begin here. Hydrate Serum teaches the skin the rhythm and philosophy of the brand. Once hydration is restored, the rest of the ritual can unfold with ease.
