Nobody likes dry skin, so why are only 20% of us using moisturizer? Most people don’t realize the importance of moisturizing skin day and night. Skin, especially facial skin, is exposed to harsh factors like pollution, chemicals in makeup, and damaging UV rays through out the day. Applying the right moisturizer will work as a barrier against these factors.
Why is moisturizing important?
Leaving out daily moisturizing can result in premature wrinkles and other signs of skin damage. It can also lead to breakouts. Here’s why: when skin is dry, it produces more oil. The excess oil, when combined with dead skin cells and other debris, can become trapped in pores, which leads to breakouts.
Moisturizing your face is an essential part a daily skin care routine. Using moisturizer twice a day improves the way your skin looks and feels. Moisturizers fill in the tiny cracks left in our skin after cleansing. They work to protect skin from foreign bodies, while keeping skin hydrated and healthy.
Finding the right moisturizer
Finding the right moisturizer is the hard part for a lot of people. Here’s a guideline to finding the right type of moisturizer for your skin type:
Aging
Aging or dry skin needs a more emollient, thicker moisturizer to infuse extra hydration. A heavier moisturizer promotes the appearance of a glowing, more radiant complexion. Hylunia Ultimate Antioxidant Cream offers an exclusive blend of vitamins, antioxidants and anti-inflammatories to help neutralize the damage caused by free radicals and leaves skin visibly softened and renewed.
Dry
Many people find using a cream helps hydrate dry skin the best. We recommend Hylunia Moisture Infusion. This silky cream instantly revives and repairs dull, dry and thirsty skin. Skin will feel hydrated and smoother.
Normal / Combination
A moisturizer suitable for all skin types works best on normal skin. Hylunia Facial Day Lotion is blended with hyaluronic acid and antioxidants helps keep skin in balance, looking healthy with a natural glow.
Oily and Acne Prone
Oily skin types do best with lightweight, oil-free moisturizers. To ensure your face stays breakout free, look for products that are listed as noncomedogenic (meaning they won’t clog pores). We recommend Hylunia Pure Hyaluronic Acid for hydration that allows skin to remain balanced.
Sensitive
If you have sensitive skin, you will want to look for a moisturizer that is fragrance free and avoid anything with dyes. All Hylunia moisturizers are free of synthetic fragrance and dyes.
The health and condition of your skin really does benefit from daily hydration. When applied twice a day, skin will look refreshed, renewed and healthier.
