Natural Skin Care

Yes that’s right the best facial moisturizer isn’t actually a moisturizer.

But first what is a moisturizer and what should it be doing for your skin?

A moisturizer is designed to improve the hydration in your skin. Or in other words it helps the skin keep moisture in the skin cells. And if the skin dries out it becomes less supple, it looks and feels drier. And it can be more prone to skin damage.

Well moisturized skin is more healthy skin, and protects itself better than a dry skin will do. It feels good.

And the way moisturizers work varies as well. For example some moisturizers include a sunscreen to help protect the skin from sunburn.

But sadly there are moisturizers that can contain suspect and even dangerous ingredients.

And there are some moisturizers that you ought to avoid, like moisturizers with mineral oil. Mineral oil is supposed to moisturize by covering the skin in a layer of oil, thereby trapping the moisture. But mineral oil can cause it’s own skin problems, and should be avoided.

But although it may sound like a contradiction I believe that you shouldn’t be using a moisturizer with sunscreen. If it’s so important to avoid sunburn surely a moisturizer with sunscreen is a great idea? No. Because you should be using your moisturizer 365 days a year. And many believe that sunscreens can cause cancer, so you don’t want to be putting a sunscreen on 365 days a year when it may be suspect and you don’t need it.

So when looking for the best facial moisturizer you need to consider the ingredients in it. There are ingredients in many skin care products, including facial moisturizers, that can cause skin reactions and allergies believe it or not.

So you can, in fact, do more damage than good if you choose the wrong facial moisturizer.

So lets answer the question about which is the best facial moisturizer.

I believe that the best facial moisturizer is a range of natural skin care products from a little niche skin care company that I bet you haven’t even heard of, here’s why.

This small company makes a range of skin care products and anti aging products and they are targeted to overall skin health. Because moisturizing is only a small part of good skin care and skin health. They don’t actually make a moisturizer because their products moisturize better than any others, and do way more.

They add a number of ingredients to their products specifically included for their moisturizing properties. They dont add a sunscreen for the reasons we have talked about before, and they dont use mineral oil.

Ingredients such as Jojoba Oil. Jojoba Oil is an excellent natural oil and helps protect the skin from moisture loss by forming a layer on the skin to do so, and it is also absorbed into the skin cells thereby softening the skin. It is entirely non allergenic, (as are all the ingredients they use) and it is good for all skin types.

And ingredients like this are healthy for all skin types so this small company doesn’t make products that differentiate between skin type, they don’t need to.

Another important ingredients is vitamin B5. Vitamin B5 helps protect the skin from sun damage more naturally and also helps repair skin damage as well as adding a moisturizing effect.

Or sorbitol, which can be found in grapes and berries and seaweeds and others, and helps the skin retain it’s moisture as well. And Capuacu oil from the seeds of the Capuacu tree which helps the skin retain moisture and smooths the skin.

And more, but you get the idea. These skin care products are designed to moisturize as a part of a complete skin care routine. The moisturizing effects of the products is unsurpassed, but they do not actually make a moisturizer. Rather they make a complete skin care routine that moisturizes as well as much much more.

So there you have it. A range of natural skin care products are in fact the best facial moisturizer you can get. They promote optimum skin health, but along the way they moisturize extremely well because that is an important part of overall skin health. For all skin types.
