In selecting the right moisturizers you should consider your skin type.

1. For excessively dry skin: I recommend that you go for moisturizers that heavily contains a high percentage of humectant-a highly hydrating agent. They help to keep skin moist and fresh.

2. For moderate skin: Its best to stick with a medium range moisturizers that has an average amount of humectant in them. This will produce a much better results for your face.

3. For oily skin: I always recommend that they carefully pick out a good moisturizer that is water-based and non-comedogenic preferably,because they reduce the risk of comedo formations.

4. For sensitive skin: Its better to chose moisturizers that contains soothing agents like chamomile or aloe they reduce the chances or allergens or irritants actions.

5. For aging skin: For aging skin its best to pick out a good one that contains petrolatum, alpha-hydroxy acids and antioxidants. Antioxidants help fight wrinkles and keeps skin hydrated.

2. Correct Timing.

This is a very important factor to note,as long as moisturizing is concerned!! So the question right now that you should be asking your self is "At what time should I moisturize my face?". Is it okay if i moisturize my face past midnight or early mornings? Asking yourself these question helps you pick out the right answers. 

Although,there haven't  been any fixed time that we must moisturize our face,but studies have shown that we obtain maximum results from our skin, when we moisturize more often at least 3 times a day. For dry skin,you can moisturize a little bit more maybe 4 times daily.

So i took some time out to explain what happens when we moisturize at different hours of the day.
  1.  Morning Hours: Face should be washed with mild soap or face wash gently till you are satisfied with hour your skin feels. Dry with a towel clean towels, quickly moisturized when your skin still feels moist.
  2.  Mid-day hours: Oh yes most people forget to take care of their skin Mid-hours of the day. You dont need to take a lot of time washing and masking face. You can use a facial cleanser quickly before using moisturizers.
  3. Night time: This should be a special skin ritual to be performed daily!!. For this you need enough time,cleansers,facial masks and face lotions as well.

3. Measuring.


If you want desired results on your skin,then its only fair that you use a desired amount of moisturizers that your face needs. Loading your face heavily with moisturizers, may not seem to look good. Also using less of it will definitely not give you expected results. 

It is absolutely important that we use an adequate amount of moisturizers enough to reach out to all areas of your face 

Now that you know the important rules, lets analyse the benefits of why applying moisturizers the right way for our face is greatly recommended.

Benefits. 

1. Hydration.

Humectants in moisturizers are natural/artificial cleansers that keep the skin hydrated by attracting water molecules from the dermis of skin and environment as well. Humectants also help to increase the amount of water held by stratum corneum. This humectants are classified into two types:

a) Synthetic humectants 

They include:

  • Sodium pca
  • Sodium lactate 
  • Tremella extract
  • Sorbitol 
  • Glycerin 
While some natural humectanst are:

b) Natural humectant
  • Hyaluronic acids 
  • Aloe.
  • Honey
  • Seeweeds
  • Other marine extracts.


2. Skin repair through [Desquamation]  

 Corneodesmosomes are enzymes that holds skin cells together and prevent action of substances to have effects on the dermis. Moisturizers helps to repair skin cells by wearing away the old and worn out skin layer. 

This enhances and improves skin color. Humectants help in this process because they are natural hydrolizers,water retained in skin facilitates this process and give skin a glow.


3. Anti-aging.

Moisturizers are great anti-aging products that you can use for your face. they contain strong antioxidants that wears out thick facial lines and also have soothing effects on skin that gives the skin a radiant look and makes it glow all day.

Using moisturizers at night before going to bed is a great way to achieve a perfect skin. At night the body cells functions more adequately and all worn out cells are being replaced by newer cells,helping this process with a moisturizer application would be a great way to start.


4. Reduces Face Oil.

Moisturizers are indeed helpful when we talk about reducing facial oil. the question is how do they help oily skin? research and studies have shown that excessively dry faces tends to release more oil. 

The reason is this,when every our face or skin becomes excessively dry,the body naturally implore some protective mechanism for the skin. 
The oil is secreted most times to keep skin moist and prevent microbial invasion. So if we regularly apply moisturizers on face,our body senses this and the need for oil secretions becomes no longer increased.


5. They help to remove under-eye dark circle.

Researches and studies has been made and they not only help to hydrate the skin they also help to nourish the skin by providing them with essential vitamins and nutrients which basically enhances it's function and clear away all dark circles you dont like on your face!!!
