Moisturisers are the holy grail of healthy skin care. No matter what your skin type, an everyday moisturiser helps balance out the moisture in your skin while giving your skin that suppleness your skin deserves. But there’s a lot more to skin care than heading to a store and picking up just about any moisturiser that’s trending RN. There are a variety of factors involved in choosing a daily moisturiser! Want to know what they are? Read on…
 

Consider the weather

Consider the weather

Taking note of the weather is extremely crucial while selecting your everyday moisturiser. Now, especially in the summers, you need to use a non-greasy formula that doesn’t feel heavy on the skin as your skin is already always perspiring and you don’t want something overtly heavy that can clog your pores. We suggest you opt for the Lakmé Absolute Skin Gloss Gel Crème that hydrates the skin deeply while lending it a moisturised finish all through the day. What else? It’s absolutely lightweight so you don’t have to feel like you’re carrying the weight of a heavy moisturiser!

 

Know your skin type

Know your skin type

Understanding your skin type is crucial when choosing a daily moisturiser. Learn more about your skin and know if you have dry, oily or combination skin. For oily skin, choose a gel based moisturiser but for dry skin choose something that intensely hydrates like the Lakmé Absolute Argan Oil Radiance Oil-in-Crème but if you have combination skin, use a mix of two creams.

 

Care for your age

Care for your age

Keep in mind that post 25, your skin suffers from collagen break down. This results in your skin losing its elasticity and firmness. This is when your skin needs a dose of a moisturiser that replenishes the moisture in your skin while stimulating collagen levels. Additionally, if you have oily skin, you need to rely on a moisturiser that’s non-greasy and anti-ageing. So make sure you keep your age in mind before choosing your everyday moisturiser.
