For most people, dry skin can be easily remedied by adjusting their moisturizing routine. But with hundreds of product options, where do you even begin?
“There’s definitely not a one-size-fits-all for all skin types,” Moisturizer which works by putting moisture into the skin, as well as preventing water from leaving the skin — can describe a number of different products.
The important ways to know what product is right for you depends on a few key points.
1. Know your skin type. Do you typically have dry skin, oily skin, or normal skin, or even combination skin?
Once you have figured that out, choose a type of moisturizer based off of your skin.
A gel is often water-based and tends to feel lighter on the skin than a lotion and is great for oily skin. A cream is thicker and has higher oil content than a lotion and gel, making it more hydrating great for normal skin. An ointment is the thickest of all, making it the most effective in remedying dry skin. Emollients in these moisturizers keep your skin soft and smooth.
Other tips for you to keep in mind..
Apply your moisturizer right after you get out of the shower and have washed and clean your face.
Pay attention to certain ingredients which might irritate your skin. If you notice your skin breaking out after using a moisturizer, stop using it and try something different.
As always, don’t forget to exfoliate and use sunscreen.
