How to hydrate dry skin in winter? 98% of people get it wrong

What is the best way to hydrate your skin in winter? What is the best way to hydrate your skin in winter? There are many reasons for dry skin. Apart from pathological reasons, the rest require you to maintain your skin through daily care. However, many girls have always had wrong concepts and ideas about hydration and moisturizing. Today we will learn how to properly hydrate and moisturize the skin in winter.

How to hydrate oily/combination skin

First of all, we need to know that moisturizing and hydrating are different concepts. The function of the sealant in skin care products is called "moisturizing", while the function of the water absorbent and biomimetic agent is called "hydrating". Oily skin secretes abundant sebum, which is enough to prevent the evaporation of moisture, so there is no need to apply moisturizer. Oily skin lacks water not because of poor moisturizing, but because there is really no water. What you need to do at this time is to replenish water.

At this time, you might as well choose a lotion with a water absorption machine and bionic agents (such as MUJI highly moisturizing lotion). If your skin feels dry a few hours after using it, you can buy a moisturizing gel (for gel, I recommend Clinique's oil-free butter gel).

How to hydrate dry to combination skin

Dry skin is caused by damage to the stratum corneum due to failure to protect it properly. Don’t over-exfoliate at this time. Girls with dry skin still need to do a good job of hydrating and moisturizing, and take good care of the stratum corneum.

Use lotion or emulsion and cream to supplement the natural moisturizing factor (NMF) to make up for the deficiency of NMF in the interstitial tissue, absorb moisture in the air, and prevent moisture from evaporating. I recommend products from Japan's Kao Curel. I will repurchase them after using them for people with suitable skin types.
