Never Underestimate the Power of Moisturizer |

Whether your skin is dry, normal, or even oily, if you can only afford one skin care product on a good moisturizer.
"Sometimes, all you really need is a good moisturizer and a mild cleanser, and you can take years off your face," When skin is dry, every wrinkle is accentuated, making you look older. If you're in your 20s or 30s, doctors say, moisturizers will give you some of the protection you need to keep skin from prematurely aging. So what exactly is a "good" moisturizer? "It's a product that will do anything from gently adding moisture, to sealing in the moisture you've achieved, to helping your skin produce more moisture -- and which type you choose should be based on your skin's individual needs." If skin is normal to dry, look for moisturizers containing alpha hydroxy acids. They can help skin produce more moisture on its own. If skin is very dry, he also suggests products using a technology called vesicular emulsion."This technology uses microscopic spheres that are alternating layers of moisture and water that slowly release throughout the day, so you get continual moisturization. If skin is oily, look for a light, gentle moisturizer - but don't skip this step, "Oil is not moisture, and even if you have excess oil you still need moisture.  |
