How To Moisturize Facial Skin
& Get Rid of Dry Facial Skin
There are many products designed to moisturize dry facial skin. Some are obviously
better than others, especially if you want to get rid of the problem for good.
One of the most effective moisturizers is Shea butter and
Keratin. If you really want to see results, start using a restorative night cream that contains these
ingredients.
**Shea Butter – Excellent
Moisturizer
Shea butter is a nut-butter. There are many different grades, including the food
grade. The premium grades are free of contaminants and have the highest degree of pharmaceutical
activity.
**Use Natural Ingredients
– Not
Synthetic
That’s right. The natural ingredient has proven pharmaceutical activity when
applied to the skin’s surface.
SHEA BUTTER:
· Reduces
inflammation,
· Soothes burns,
· Treats eczema,
· Reduces scarring,
· Helps to fade stretch
marks,
· Useful in acne,
· And More.
The product is not well-known in the US. In Africa where the tree grows, you will
find it is every drugstore. It made its way to Europe long ago. In the US, it is still grouped with cocoa butter.
The pharmaceutical companies in the US have a great deal of control over the available products for treating skin
conditions.
- Skin – The Primary
Concern
Treating dry facial skin is not usually considered a medical problem. But, if you
think about it, you realize that the skin is the largest organ of the body. It should be treated with care. The
primary concern should be the health of the organ, not just the appearance. When the skin is healthy, the skin’s
appearance is greatly enhanced.
The skin’s ability to rejuvenate can easily be damaged. The use of a restorative night cream supports natural rejuvenation and helps to repair the
damage.
There are two things that combine to create a
moister complexion;
· Water in the skin’s
cells
· Sebum.
Sebum is a kind of oil produced by the skin’s sebaceous glands. Sebum is composed
of fatty acids. Oil and water don’t mix, as you may know. Sebum, the oil, repels water which helps to keep it
locked in the skin’s cells.
The bad ingredients that you learned about in my last article strip sebum away.
Water inside of the cells quickly evaporates.
**How Shea Butter Helps Your
Skin
Shea butter is composed of fatty acids nearly identical to those present in sebum.
It basically replaces the sebum lost during cleansing.
If you wear makeup, you know how important it is to wash it away before bed at
night. But at the same time, you are washing away sebum. If you do not use a restorative night cream, you will wake
up in the morning with dry facial skin.
Shea butter is not the only ingredient to look for in a restorative night
cream.
- Keratin Improves Skin
Moisture
Keratin is another that helps to reduce dry facial skin. It has been proven in
clinical studies to improve the skin’s moisture content and its ability to retain moisture.
While Shea butter provides the immediate benefit by replacing lost sebum, Keratin
helps to heal as time goes by. After 18 days, researchers have seen a significant improvement in water retention
within the cells.
The regular use of a good restorative night cream will get rid of dry facial skin
and keep it from coming back. Now you have the answers you were looking for.
