Moisturisers

Moituriser is an important step to protect the skin barrier, and although I did not use one for year, and I still use serums and face oils, I alsno now regularly incorporate moisturiser in the my morning and night routine.

I have been getting a similar question from people i the past few months: “Even though I use oils and serums my skin still feels dry” In this Video I answer that question - but the short answer is

You Need Moisturizer!

Moisturizer helps limit water loss, protecting the skin barrier. In broad terms, the more oils and waxes you have, the more “occlusive” or or protective the moisturiser is. Lighter formulas are more lotion or milky and are made with more watery ingredients with a lighter texture.

Some people prefer using a thicker cream as a night cream and a lighter one by day, some prefer richer all the time. it really depends on the rest of your skicare routine, your lifestyle and skintype… as well as where you live.

Below is a selection of some of my favourite moisturisers made by conscious beauty brands at a variety of price points to suit every need. Get in touch with me anytime if you need some assistance. I love the Irene Forte Refillable natural skincare line and you can learn more about the brand here. And if yu are just looking for something very light, I suggest the Gherane Hydrating serum, its a really light lotion that I have really liked.
