Best Moisturizers For Dry Skin

When you go to a skin care store, you will always find a section that sells the best moisturizers for dry skin. This is because the prevention of skin dryness, especially on the skin of your face, is as important as having smooth hair and glowing skin, among others.

Finding the best moisturizers for dry skin both means looking for the essential ingredients and avoiding harmful substances commonly found on those products. If you cannot do these, you will just be wasting your money on products that are both ineffective and damaging to your skin.

Look for these essential ingredients

We are fortunate to have some of the essential natural ingredients that truly deliver lasting results. Many moisturizers for dry skin do not contain these substances. You need to check if your dry skin moisturizing regiment contains Cynergy TK, Nano Lipobelle H-EQ10 and Phytessence Wakame. These products are natural extracts from plants and animals and had been regarded as most effective in enhancing skin condition.

The problem with dryness on your skin is essentially the result of loss of moisture. Either the skin layers could no longer retain moisture content for a longer period or could not absorb moisture from the environment.

As I had mentioned earlier, the best moisturizer for dry skin should also not contain ingredients that deteriorate further your skin condition. Sad to say, many face moisturizers contain harmful chemicals that are both ineffective in addressing skin dryness and damaging to the skin cells. You need to watch out for the following ingredients:

1. Parabens. Substances such as methyl, propyl, butyl and ethyl are used as preservatives in most moisturizers for dry skin. However, these compounds are already considered as carcinogenic that could pose greater risk especially when applied on the sensitive areas of your face.

2. Mineral oil. Many cosmetic companies add mineral oil into their moisturizing creams to wrap the skin layer with the oily substance, believing that this helps trap moisture content of the skin. Truth to tell, mineral oil blocks the pores on the skin, preventing the elimination of toxins from the skin layers.

3. Alcohol. Alcohol may come in the form of ethanol, ethyl, methanol, benzyl or isopropyl. It has the potential of killing harmful bacteria. Kindly note, however, that alcohol also eliminates the natural acid layers of the skin that safeguard the body from bacterial infections. Alcohol also alters the normal ph level of the skin.

4. Fragrance. Face it. You do not need your face moisturizers to smell good. You are not buying a cologne or perfume. You are instead buying a skin care product that will help you improve your skin moisture and general condition. A face moisturizer containing fragrance is toxic and does not address directly the root cause of skin dryness.

Maintaining sufficient moisture on your face is important in preventing the premature development of wrinkles. It also prevents your face from having flaking, itchiness and blemishes. Knowing this vital information should guide you now in buying the best moisturizers for dry skin.
