Moisturizing Creams For Skin Types

Dry:
Moisturizing cream with essential fats, humectants and emollients such as petrolatum and shea butter is ideal for this skin type. The fat and humectants content of the cream softens the skin and the emollients lock the moisture.

Oily:
Look for an oil free lotion and gels that contains humectants silicone derivatives. They attract water and lock in moisture without clogging pores.

Normal Skin:
Try using non greasy lotion with a balanced mixture of humectants and emollients. This maintains the ideal moisture of your skin by attracting the water into your skin and locking it in to prevent evaporating.

Sensitive:
Make sure you are using fragrance free moisturizer for sensitive skin. This specific cream doesn’t contain irritating ingredients like lanolin, acid, mineral oil and retinoids. They hydrate the skin without causing inflammation. They also create a protective barrier to lock in moisture.
