सिर्फ इसलिए कि आपकी स्किन ऑयली है, इसका मतलब यह नहीं है कि आपको आपकी स्किन को मॉश्चराइज की आवश्यकता नहीं होगी। स्किन को मॉइस्चराइज नहीं करते हैं, तो आपकी स्किन अधिक तेल का उत्पादन करके सूखने की भरपाई करने की कोशिश करती है।
Moisturising falls into the category of daily skin care routine. While a moisturiser can promote hydration and overall health of your skin, using too thick or too light moisturiser can leave your skin feeling parched. So while using a moisturiser is critical, it is also important to pick the ideal one for your skin type, says cosmetologist Dr. Nandita Das. Find out if you are using the wrong moisturiser.
You are using comedogenic products that clog pores
You should immediately ditch the moisturiser that makes you break out. Comedogenic ingredients clog your pores so look for non-comedogenic moisturizers. Look for oil-free brands containing glycerine. Moisturisers with retinol and salicylic can be amazing to combat acne.
Your moisturiser contains irritants like mineral oils and fragrances
If your moisturiser makes your skin turn red or itch, stop using it. Mineral oil, fragrances and glycolic acid are some of the common irritants. So if your skin is especially sensitive, stay away from these products. Instead, pick moisturizers that are hypoallergenic and fragrance free and contain soothing ingredients like aloe vera and oatmeal. And if you are trying out a new product, make sure that you do a patch test first. Follow these 4 tips to moisturise your skin the right way.
Your moisturiser does not provide enough hydration
If you still get dry spots and flakes instead of using a moisturiser you need to up your game. You need a moisturiser that will help lock in your body s natural oils. Moisturisers containing hyaluronic acid can help attract and retain water on your skin. Brands that contain ceramides contain naturally occurring lipids found in the upper layer of your skin. Try using this quick and easy homemade moisturiser.
