Choosing the Right Moisturizer for your Face

The Benefits of Choosing the Right Moisturizer for your Face

Our team of renowned dermatologists have developed a range of moisturizers to suit all skin types.

Using our moisturizers on a daily basis will result in the following benefits:

1. Prevent Dryness

Moisturizing the skin on a daily basis can counteract the effects of whether it’s the cold or hot weather, the frosty air or blazing heat, the hot showers you love or the frequent washing - these environmental factors can dry your skin and cause problems. 

2. Youthful Skin

Moisturizing the face daily is the most fundamental protection against premature aging of the skin and to combat the photo-aging process. 

3. Soothe sensitive skin

When your sensitive skin becomes dry or oily it will develop eczema, flakes, or breakouts a lot more easily. This is why it’s important to find a good moisturizer that’ll keep it in balance, hydrated but without making it greasy. 

4. Protection against UV rays

A good moisturizer can repair and protect the skin preventing damage from UV rays and other damaging-forces from the environment.

5. Healthy and Vibrant Appearance

Moisturizing daily can offer relief to many physiological processes resulting in symptoms such as saggy, wrinkled and colorless complexions. Moisturizing will improve the overall texture and look of the skin resulting in a healthy and vibrant appearance. 

6. Fast Cell Turnover

Another benefit associated with moisturizers is improved cell function and speeded cell turnover.

Our skin constantly produces new skin cells deep within the dermis and replaces old, worn-out, and ill-functioning cells. As we age, this regeneration-process slows down, and the imperfections of our skin become more permanent. Using the right moisturizer will feed the skin so it can maintain its health and youth.

Why Is Moisturizing Important?

Moisturizing is an important step to maintain your skin’s healthy cells and to protect it from irritation.

Moisturizing faithfully in your youth will increase your chances to maintain a flawless complexion as you grow older.

To help prevent further breakouts it is important to moisturize your skin. Breakouts and acne can occur when your skin is dry and irritated, therefore moisturizing your skin can reduce your chances of any skin problems arising.

Facial moisturizers help balance your skin’s complexion and prevent acne breakouts. And moisturizing isn't just for women — it's an important habit for men to incorporate into their daily routine as well.

What Happens If You Don't Moisturize?

Your skin’s health depends on being clean and retaining moisture, so the healthier your skin is the more vibrant your complexion will be.

Applying right after the shower also helps protect your skin from the elements. When your skin is lacking moisture, it fails to regenerate cells.

This leads to the overproduction of sebum and dry or flaky skin. But when your skin is hydrated and healthy, your skin can regenerate cells, leaving you with a glowing complexion.

With aging, our sebum glands lose their efficiency which causes an overproduction of oil. By using moisturizers at a younger age, you’re reducing your chance of aging signs as you get older. Moisturizing your skin is important because it helps you age with minimal evidence.

Wrinkles and lines are consequences of not properly moisturizing in your youth. While you may still end up with these signs, it’ll be at a fraction of what it would have been. Working to keep your cells healthy will benefit you in the long run.

How Do I Properly Moisturize?

Applying your moisturizer the correct way is crucial.

Aggressively rubbing your skin is damaging, and not using the right amount can make your lotion ineffective.

When you apply your moisturizer, pat the lotion into your skin instead of rubbing. This helps distribute the product evenly without damage to your skin cells. It’s beneficial to apply to all areas that show aging such as your face, neck, and chest.

Applying with upward strokes helps work against gravity and discourages your skin from sagging. Using gentle, circular strokes also helps reduce puffiness and evenly distributes the product.

Conclusion

Moisturizing is a step that many people leave out of their skincare routine, because they see it as an optional step. But this couldn’t be farther from the case. 

Making sure your skin cells are well hydrated will help with prevent breakouts and ensure beautiful skin in the future. Since moisturizers are meant to be soaked into the skin and not washed off, it's one of the easiest steps in a skincare regime.

Our facial moisturizers contain vitamins and other beneficial ingredients, which is an added bonus for your skin. Using a moisturizer to keep your skin healthy is important for your skin care routine.
