In simple terms how do moisturizers affect the skin is pretty straightforward — they basically add water and oil to your outer skin layer (epidermis).

However that’s the easy part to understand… what complicates the issue is the fact that there are hundreds of manufacturers of skin creams in the market all trying to get your business.

Therefore they try to convince you their product is the best and most cost effective. Now there isn’t anything wrong with that — it’s just the way a normal competitive business works these days.

Unfortunately this creates a problem in itself, as we get confused with so much information and don’t know whom to believe. So the best way to help reduce this confusion is to basically understand what a moisturizer does

How do moisturizers affect the skin?

Prevent and treat dryness
Reduce sensitivity and give protection
Improve tone, texture and cover imperfections
Increase water and oil holding capacity of your epidermis
Reduce fluid loss from the outer skin layer

The most important ingredients in a top moisturizer are emollients, they lubricate and fill in the spaces between your skin cells, and help to provide a layer of oil that slows water loss, which naturally helps increase the moisture content.

Therefore when you researching and evaluating a new moisturizer take a close look at which emollients it contains, how many and how active are they.

These days the most effective moisturizer creams will include additional ingredients that help to revitalize and de-age your facial tissues by reducing fine lines and wrinkles. Increase your skins capacity to fight off the negative effects of oxidation, and also boost your hyaluronic levels.

There are a few good skin care forums on the Internet where you can get some good user feedback on products people have tried. However keep in mind what works effectively for one person may not even work at all for someone else. So keep an open mind.

In the end the only way you will ever really know if a moisturizer will work effectively for you is to try it. So make sure the manufacturer offers a money back guarantee, even if you have opened and used some of the cream.
