    Do switch moisturisers every summer and winter, if necessary

    If you know that your skin’s needs change as the seasons do, it would be beneficial to purchase products to coincide with the season, to keep your skin healthy and beautiful. Summery seasons tend to require lighter moisture opposed to colder seasons which tend to make our skin drier. A great alternative is to use a body lotion in summer and using a body cream in winter.

    Don’t overuse moisturiser

    Moisturiser shouldn’t be overused - it’s a skin-nourishing lotion or cream made to hydrate your body and give you the added protection it needs for the day. Having an oily residue build up on your skin doesn’t necessarily mean your skin is moisturised. Ensure you have enough moisturiser for your skin to absorb and soak in.

    Don’t count exclusively on moisturiser to hydrate your skin

    Hydrating your skin is more than just applying moisturiser - it’s a combination of many things that help ensure your entire body, inside out, is hydrated. From diet and lifestyle to exercise and products, these all go hand-in-hand in hydrating your skin and yielding great results.

    Don’t mix up the difference between dry & dehydrated skin

    There’s a difference between dry and dehydrated skin, and it’s important to know that there are different moisturisers for different skin needs. Knowing the difference can help you learn about and cater to your skin better.

    Don’t leave the skin bare for too long after cleansing

    Applying body lotion or cream on damp skin right after cleansing can help lock in the hydration. Cleansing your skin can strip your skin of essential oils, that’s why leaving your skin bare for longer than 60 seconds can cause dryness.

    Don’t be afraid of oil in moisturiser

    The oils found in moisturisers have a very important role to play in hydrating your skin. Don’t be afraid of these oils - they’re used to provide the added nourishment and moisture to give your skin that extra boost.
