Moisturisers and Hydrators

Whether you refer to them as moisturisers or hydrators, they serve the same purpose. Every skin type can benefit from a moisturiser or hydrator, even oily, combination or mature skin!

So, depending on what results you are after, moisturisers and hydrators can offer many benefits for all skin types, including sensitive, dry or dehydrated skin.

What Does Moisturiser Do?

Moisturisers are essential skin care products that help the skin by forming a nourishing barrier on the skin's surface. Moisturisers do a great job of locking in moisture while simultaneously protecting your skin against everyday environmental stressors like air pollution and dust.

There are various face moisturisers that cater to different skin concerns like sensitive skin, acne prone skin, or ageing skin.

The protective barrier provided by the moisturiser allows for an optimal environment for the skin to absorb and retain moisture. This helps the skin remain hydrated and ready to benefit from other skincare products like sunscreen and makeup to be applied afterwards. 

Why is Moisturiser Important?

Moisturising your skin is an important element of any skincare regimen. Here are some key benefits you can reap by using a moisturiser daily:

  • Keeping skin hydrated
  • Protective barrier from environmental stressors
  • Repairs skin cells
  • Reduce dryness of skin
  • Promotes smoother skin texture
  • Soothes irritable and sensitive skin
  • Primes skin for makeup
  • Helps with reducing fine lines and wrinkles

It is important to remember that a consistent moisturising routine is a crucial element to maximising the benefits of what a moisturiser can do for your skin.

How to Use a Facial Moisturiser

Using a facial moisturiser should be incorporated into your daily skincare routine to maintain and balance your skin's protective barrier and moisture levels. The golden standard of how to use a facial moisturiser include:

  1. Spot testing any new products, by placing some product on your hand and see if there is any reaction.
  2. Cleansing the skin and exfoliating as necessary, then applying moisturiser as the last step in your skincare routine, but before sunscreen in the day time.
  3. Apply in the morning and evening daily.

Types of Moisturisers for the Face

There are an abundance of moisturisers available, but it is crucial to find one that works for you and your skin type.
