What You Need to Know About Skin Moisturisers
Skin moisturisers were designed to provide your skin with the hydration and nourishment it needs to be healthy and strong. While it’s possible to overdo it, it’s more likely that people don’t moisturise enough or simply aren’t doing it correctly. With the different skin types out there, one must remember that not all moisturisers are created equally. For example, someone with dry skin would use products that have a high glycerine and hyaluronic acid content and those with oilier skin would opt for a lighter lotion. Let’s delve a little deeper.

Now to the Moisturiser Don'ts
The beauty about skincare is that there’s always something new to learn and love. You might think that moisturising a lot is helping your skin, but in reality, it may not be. Check out these tips on what not to do, and your skin will thank you later.
When Is the Correct Time to Apply Moisturiser on Your Skin?
Believe it or not, the correct time to apply moisturiser on your skin is when it’s damp. Meaning that your skin should be slightly wet, right after a shower or bath, and that’s when you apply your favourite Dove moisturiser. It’ll help lock in the hydration and moisture, and leave your skin feeling soft and supple.
While there are various moisturising dos and don'ts, the top 5 that should be prioritised include: using a moisturiser that matches your skin type, applying moisturiser to damp skin, using sunscreen in combination with moisturiser, avoiding over-exfoliating or over-washing, and drinking plenty of water to hydrate the skin from the inside out. By following these dos and don'ts, you can help ensure that your skin remains healthy, supple, and well-hydrated.
