Why Do You Need To Buy A Face Moisturizer?

Moisturizers form an essential part of our skincare routine. Pollution, stress, and hormonal changes can result in making your face dry and rough. A good natural face moisturizer creates a barrier between your skin and the outer environment. 

Let's try to understand it scientifically. The topmost layer of the skin is called the stratum corneum. It consists of dead cells called corneocytes. Although dead, these cells contain various substances that can hold water in them. 

So when this layer of your skin is not holding on to enough water (for various reasons), it starts feeling dry. It also makes your skin appear irritated and dull. That's where the work of a moisturizer starts.

 A moisturizer can do two things at once to restore hydration to your skin:

• It locks water into your skin to infuse instant hydration.
• It has ingredients that can also absorb moisture from the atmosphere.

Benefits Of Face Moisturizers

Now that you know that the primary reason to moisturize your face is to hydrate it. Let us introduce you to tonnes of other benefits that you can derive from a face moisturizer.

#1. Prevents Dryness

Your environment affects your skin. Whether sitting in an air-conditioned office in the hot weather or resting at home with indoor heating in cold weather, you keep losing water from your skin.

It can make your skin dry. A skin moisturizer cream can restore water in your skin and make it look hydrated. The best natural face moisturizer has the tendency to hydrate your face and give it a natural glow. 

#2. Helps Fight Acne

Most oily-skinned people believe that a moisturizer can make their skin acne-prone. That is why they tend to skip the whole moisturization step in their skincare regime. 

It is absolutely wrong! There is science behind moisturization. When your skin gets dry (loses hydration), it sends a message to your oil-producing glands to secrete more oil. It can lead to clogging of your pores which causes breakouts. 

If you properly hydrate your skin with the best natural moisturizer, it will stop your glands from producing more oil than what your skin needs. 

#3. Soothe Sensitive Skin

We all know that sensitive skin needs more care. It gets allergies faster and becomes red, leading to itchy, dry patches. If you are someone experiencing all these problems, a good naturally sourced moisturizer can help you. 

A good moisturizer can soothe your skin to give it instant relief. Look for ingredients like aloe vera gel, honey, and chamomile in your moisturizer.

#4. Provides A Youthful Glow

An excellent hydrating moisturizer can provide your skin with the ability to repair itself from the inside. This helps in producing more collagen. More collagen production gives you more youthful and smoother-looking skin.

Our ayurvedic-infused natural moisturizers can give you younger-looking skin and help prevent the signs of aging.

#5. Reduces Blemishes

Scientific evidence says that blemishes appear more on dry skin. If your skin is hydrated, it appears smoother and nourished. This reduces the appearance of blemishes to some extent. 

A good moisturizer also has other ingredients that can work on your spots and blemishes to reduce them. Daily moisturization can eliminate skin problems like blemishes.

#6. Fights Signs Of Ageing

The ultimate work of a moisturizer is to hydrate your skin. But hydration, in turn, affects several aspects. For example, hydrated skin looks plump and shiny. It also leads to reduced wrinkles and fine lines.

A good natural moisturizer helps maintain skin elasticity. This can give your face a youthful look. Make a habit of daily moisturization for better results!

When Should You Use A Face Moisturizer?

One thing that you must remember is that moisturization should be done daily. For better results, we suggest that you moisturize your face twice, once in the morning and once at night. 

Although many moisturizers claim to provide you with 24-hour moisturization, you tend to wash your face at least twice a day. That's why we recommend face moisturization two times. 

In The Morning (AM)

Make moisturization your post-bath ritual. After you cleanse your face, your skin can lose essential hydration. Using a moisturizer locks on the moisture in your skin. Moisturization is also effective when done on a slightly damp face. 

At Night (PM)

After a day of work, you generally wash your face to get rid of makeup and pollutants. Sealing your face's water content with a good moisturizer should be your go-to step every night. A good sleep routine is naturally beneficial to moisturizing your skin. 

Steps To Moisturize Your Face

1. Cleanse your face with a mild cleanser. You can look at our cleanser section to get a better idea about cleansing. 
2. Pat dry your face with a soft towel. This gently exfoliates your skin as well. 
3. Use a mild, alcohol-free toner to seal your pores. 
4. Take a pea-sized amount of moisturizer and apply it evenly on your face and neck area. For best results, repeat this step twice daily, in the morning and at night. 
5. You should follow this up with a good SPF cream to prevent harmful sun rays from harming your face. 

What Ingredients Make Up The Best Moisturizers?

Several ingredients can help you get the most out of a moisturizer. If you get stuck on what moisturizer can work best for you, look at its ingredient list. Some of the best ingredients that should be there in a moisturizer are listed below. 

Glycerine

This is the most common ingredient in all moisturizers. This is because glycerine is a humectant. A humectant keeps your skin hydrated by drawing water from the atmosphere and the deeper parts of your skin. 

Hyaluronic Acid 

Your skin naturally produces this ingredient to make it hydrated. It is also a humectant. As you age, your skin starts to lose its ability to produce hyaluronic acid. This can make your skin more prone to dullness. 

UV rays also reduce the hyaluronic acid content from your skin. Use a moisturizer containing hyaluronic acid for a more hydrated and fresh face. 

Shea Butter

Shea butter is an emollient. An emollient helps fill any cracks in the epidermal layer of your skin. This helps in sealing up the moisture content of your skin. It also makes the skin look smoother and hence younger. 

Shea butter can also soothe inflammation. However, we do not recommend using shea butter for acne-prone skin as it can clog your pores. 

Ayurvedic Ingredients

Some traditional Indian jaribootis ( medicinal herbs) prove to be the best natural moisturizers. These products are also environment-friendly and safer for your skin as they do not contain any harmful chemicals. 

Some of the ayurvedic aushadhi (ingredients) that are helpful for moisturization are okra extracts, Gotu kola, and witch hazel.
