It is important to apply lotion on your skin after you take a shower, to moisturize and soften your skin. In this post, we will be covering the features of body lotion that you should look for in order to find the right one for your needs.
1. A Primer
A moisturizer is a skin care product that aims to provide either temporary or long-lasting hydration and protection from the elements. It can be found in many forms, including lotion, cream, butter, or oil. It helps to achieve different goals depending on what type of skin you have and how much time you want it to last on your skin.
2. Moisturizer
Moisturizers are products used to treat and prevent dry skin, aging skin, and other skin conditions. They generally have a light texture and may be oil- or water-based. You can use them after you wash your face or before you apply your make-up. Moisturizers are often used by people with sensitive skin, such as those with eczema, psoriasis, or rosacea.
3. Anti-Aging
An anti-aging moisturizer works to correct the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and discoloration by reducing the depth of the skin. It is designed to compensate for skin’s natural aging process (such as lines and wrinkles). The product should also be used when you apply make-up to your face or body. At most, an anti-aging moisturizer can last for as long as 12 months, and sooner if it includes ingredients like Alpha Hydroxy Acids.
4. Hydrating
You can use a hydrating lotion to keep your skin from drying out. Many of these products are very lightweight and work well with any skin type, including sensitive skin. They are ideal for using as a daily moisturizer, and also work well as a leave-on.
5. Viscosity
A lotion with a high viscosity is typically thicker than a lotion with a low viscosity. Many people find it easier to spread, which leads to more hydration in less time. When selecting the right lotions for your skin type, lookup at the label and see how thick or thin it is compared to other products on the market.
