What Are Moisturizers?
A face moisturizer is a lotion, or cream emulsion, ointment or balm formulated with emollients that help skin stay hydrated. Moisturizers hydrate the surface layers of the skin. Their main skin benefit is that they seal the skin, locking in moisture and nutrients, while protecting the skin from environmental irritant
Natural ways you can moisturize your face are with aloe vera or algae gels, which help to soothe and hydrate the skin.
Moisturizers have long been a part of skin care routines. Even Cleopatra was said to bathe in milk for its moisturizing qualities.
When it comes to a natural skincare routine, hydration is our highest priority. This is true whether we’re experiencing dry and dull skin from winter weather or feeling the effects of the hot summer sun.
Lifestyle tricks help you naturally hydrate your skin and retain that moisture. Stress causes microscopic cracks in the skin, increasing dehydration with a phenomenon called transepidermal water loss. Frequent exercise, limiting, alcohol consumption, reducing salt intake, eating foods high in water content, like lettuce, cucumber, and tomatoes, and maintaining relaxing habits that help reduce stress.
Choose a product designed for your skin type or check with a dermatologist for the most personalized skin care plan.
