How To Moisturise Your Skin
There are a few steps you can follow that can help soothe dry skin and add that lost moisture back in. There is no right or wrong way to moisturise skin; just that you do it effectively at least once a day. Make sure that you apply your favourite Dove body lotion to clean and fresh skin so that it can absorb all that nourishment quickly. Be sure to take lukewarm showers to prevent the hot water from drying out your skin, and try to wear comfortable clothes that allow your skin to breathe. All these little things can help to keep your skin beautifully moisturised.
The 5 Advantages for Sustainable Healthy Skin with Moisturisers
Moisturisers are more than just a product in your skincare regime, they offer so many benefits to your skin. Apart from the common fact that they keep your skin soft, there are some other surprising advantages to moisturisers. Let’s take a look.
Which moisturiser to use for dry winter skin?
Depending on your skin type and sensitivity, there are different types of moisturisers that you can use on your journey to healthy-looking skin.
- Humectants: these are products that contain hyaluronic acid or glycerine and provide moisture to your skin by taking moisture from the air and directly putting it into the outer layer of your skin.
- Emollients: these are oil-based products such as cocoa butter and collagen that improve your skin’s texture by filling in the crevices of your skin to make it appear smoother and softer.
- Occlusives: this is your petroleum jelly and beeswax that provides a sort of ‘seal’ over your skin to prevent your skin from losing moisture.
Loving the skin you’re in comes from treating it with love and care. Knowing what your skin type is can definitely boost your confidence and prevent you from making skincare mistakes again.
- Oily skin: since your skin produces excess sebum, it is best to choose a light moisturiser such as the Dove Body Love Light Care Body Lotion for All Skin Types.
- Dry skin: body lotions or creams with a sufficient moisturisation capability to deeply nourish and replenish your skin. Try the Dove Body Love Intense Care Body Lotion for Very Dry Skin to achieve soft, radiant skin.
- Sensitive skin: if you have sensitive skin, it’s important to check the moisturisers ingredients to ensure it doesn’t have any triggers for your skin.
