It is very important to use moisturizer for all skin types in summer-monsoon-winter. We use face washes to remove excess oiliness during hot weather, which makes the skin a bit dry and removes essential oils. Moisturizer is needed to remove this dryness of the skin due to the use of face wash or soap, which will refresh the skin, maintain the glow of the skin and make the skin vibrant.
How does moisturizer work?
One of the ingredients of moisturizer is “humectant” which ensures water supply to the upper layer of our skin. It keeps the skin hydrated by drawing water from the dermis (second layer of skin) to the epidermis (top layer of skin). Moisturizers also contain “emollients” that create a protective layer on the surface of the skin that protects the skin from loss of essential moisture.
What type of skin moisturizer?
In many cases, there is a misconception among us about the use of moisturizers. Dry skin does not need moisturizer in summer and oily skin in winter. But this idea is completely wrong. Both skin types need a moisturizer during the hot season. There are two types of moisturizers available in the market, gel-based and oil-based. A gel-based moisturizer is recommended for oily skin and an oil-based moisturizer for dry skin. So choose the right moisturizer according to your skin type and needs.
How to choose the right moisturizer for your skin?
The cosmetic market is flooded with various brands of moisturizers, both domestic and foreign, in most seasons, hot or cold. A review of most of the ingredient lists will reveal the presence of harmful and excessive chemicals. Besides, foreign moisturizers are often not suitable for our country’s climate and skin.
Following advanced and standardized ingredients and manufacturing processes that monitor climate and skin needs, Purple Care Ltd. has launched 2 moisturizers – Fraus Glow Boost Oil Control Moisturizer (Oily & Combination Skin) and Fraus Glo-Boost Vitamin-E Moisturizer (Sensitive & dry skin). These two moisturizers are very lightweight and keep the skin free from excess oiliness during the summer season and provide the necessary moisture and hydration to the skin.
