You’ve heard the buzz about normal, oily, dry, combination, or sensitive skin types. But which one do you have?
It can change over time. For example, younger people are more likely than older folks to have a normal skin type.
Moisturisers come in two forms: liquid and cream. Rich, liquid and cream moisturisers take care of dry and wrinkled skin. Water-based, oil free moisturiser works best for oily skin. Herbal moisturisers are very light. They not only help to protect the skin, but also assist in evaporating excess of moisture.
Moisturizer seems simple enough. It comes in a jar or a tube, and once or twice a day you slather it onto your skin. However, if you're applying it wrong, it's about as beneficial as that bottle of multivitamins that sits in your cupboard but never gets opened. Basically, it's not doing much.
Applying your moisturizer correctly, on the other hand, boosts hydration in your skin, prevents flaking and dullness, and creates a protective layer of moisture that lasts all day. Plus, proper application of a face cream will help anti-aging ingredients work better — increasing the odds that they'll work.
If you think you're doing everything right, you might be surprised to learn that you could be moisturizing better.
