The Top Three Most Effective Moisturizing Ingredients!

There are three things that you should have in your lotions that will give you moisturized skin


  • Glycerin
    Glycerin pull water from the atmosphere into your skin! Although it is very heavy, it works well with all skin types. You'll find a rich concentration of glycerin in body lotions rather than face lotions since your arms and legs can handle it better.

    Eucerin and Aveeno lotions contain glycerin.






  • Hyaluronic Acid
    Don't freak out yet! Yes, i said acid", but it's not an acid acid. Hyaluronic acid is naturally found in your skin and it can hold up to 1,000 times its weight in water. The most effective moisturizers contain
    pricey dehydrated hyaluronic acid!

    Lancome's high resolution refill-3x is an example of a creme that has Hyaluronic acid
                                 
  • Ceramides
    The skin's natural lipid structure is made of ceramides. It's one way of saying that fat traps water beneath the surface. Without ceramides, your skin would dry up! Actually, deficiency in ceramides contributes to eczema.



So whenever you buy lotions, you will be able to tell which lotions are effective in keeping your skin hydrated!



Stay Hydrated!
