Why to use moisturizers?

Moisturizers protect your skin by keeping it hydrated and healthy. While some may wonder about the need to use a moisturizer, dermatologists recommend using it on a regular basis. An effective skin regimen can never be complete without a good quality moisturizer that suits your skin type. Just like a good diet and regular exercises are vital for a healthy skin a good quality moisturizer is also necessary for a skin that looks and feels good.

Determining your skin type

Your skin can fall under any of these categories depending on a number of factors including your dietary habits- dry, oily, mature, sensitive or combination. It is extremely important to identify your skin type before deciding which moisturizer to buy. This will make sure that you are using the right cream on your face. Most commonly combination skin is found in women. For mature and dry skin it is recommended to use an oil based moisturizer while for oily skin water based moisturizers are suggested. People with sensitive skin should use moisturizers that contain soothing ingredients like aloe vera. Those who have normal or combination skin can benefit from lighter water based moisturizers.

Buying the right product

Look for a product that does not contain synthetic fragrances. These artificial fragrances can contribute to skin reactions and allergies. Some products also contain a natural ingredient or essential oil that might act as a fragrance.

The right way

Experts recommend using a moisturizer immediately after a bath, when your skin is still damp. Use the cream in upward strokes and massage gently to increase blood circulation and reduce puffiness. Don’t forget to apply moisturizer on your neck as well. Use the same product on your neck, chest and hands but remember not to use your body lotion on your face as this can clog pores and be allergic to sensitive skin.

Moisturizing in the right way will help you keep your skin hydrated for long and prevent drying of the skin. Moreover, it will help anti-ageing ingredients to work better on your skin and give your skin the desired attention.
