If you want young-looking, wrinkle-free skin, it pays to clean and moisturize. Keeping your skin hydrated also banishes pimple marks and other pesky spots.
Some people tend to skip the moisturizer, thinking their skin is moisturized enough or too oily for the product. The truth is everyone needs moisturizers, even when you have oily skin — actually, especially then.
Here are some myths and misconceptions about moisturizers that might be keeping you from achieving a supple, flawless complexion:
- There’s just one kind of moisturizer.
There are several types of moisturizer, and you can pick one according to your skin type. Humectants, or those that contain lactic acid and glycerin, for instance, retain water to keep skin hydrated. Emollients, on the other hand, contain ceramides and fatty acids that soothe or soften the skin.
- People with oily skin do not need moisturizer.
It may feel counterintuitive to use moisturizer when you have oily skin, but the oilier your face is, the more you need to moisturize. People who have oily skin tend to use products to tame oil production down. This, however, only strips the skin of moisture and leaves it dehydrated, causing the face to overcompensate by producing more oil. By using moisturizer, you’re helping balance out your oil production.
Origani offers a moisturizing product that does exactly that: balance your skin’s oil production. Our Dermassure Clear & Calm Matte Comfort Moisturiser works by moderating your skin’s oil production, keeping it from releasing excess sebum in your t-zone. It is made of 12 natural ingredients including tea tree oil, honey, ylang ylang, chamomile flower extract, and sandalwood. It also contains a trademarked ingredient, the Arctic Willowherb ™, which primarily acts as an anti-irritant, making the product safe for sensitive skin.
