How To Choose A Moisturizer

HOW TO CHOOSE A MOISTURIZER

Some of the most common skin complaints, like irritation and breakouts, are caused by using the wrong moisturizer. Here's how to find the right one:
· For oily skin: It may sound obvious, but what you want is an oil-free lotion, such as Dermelogica Oil Control Lotion.
· If your skin is dry, try a thick cream with hyaluronic acid or glycerin, which draw in water. I Like Darphin Stimulskin Plus is another spendy fave. You can buy this for €140 from feelunique.com or cheaper version of that not really a moisturiser but a balm its fantastic Darphin Aromatic Renewing Balm, it’ll set you back €45 for 15ml and it’s a fab-smelling (think lemon curd) pot of essential oil-based goop that works wonders on chapped noses and patches of stubborn flaky skin. You only need a tiny amount massage into hands to warm it up and then massage into face. I used to use Darphin in the Salon and it is a wonderful product.

· If you break out easily, choose a lotion or gel instead of a cream, and make sure it's noncomedogenic. It should say so on the bottle. Try Aveeno Clear Complexion Daily Moisturizer.
· If you have sensitive skin, use a fragrance-free product, such as La Roche-Posay Toleriane Facial Fluide most good chemists  will have this.
