All of us wish for soft, glowing, clear and healthy skin, don’t we?
Today, everyone talks about the importance of CTM i.e. Cleansing, Toning and Moisturizing in our skincare routine to keep our skin healthy and glowing. We all know that cleansing our skin is essential to keep the dirt, pollutants, sweat, microorganisms and excess oil away. However, cleansing alone isn’t enough. In this blog, let’s see why moisturizing skin is so important in our daily skincare routine.
Here are the Top 5 Reasons to Moisturize your Skin Daily
1. To Maintain a Healthy Radiant Skin:
The outer layer of skin called the stratum corneum is made up of about 15% of water. The use of moisturizer in a skincare routine helps to maintain skin hydration. It helps to maintain the elasticity and the flexibility of skin. The use of herbal moisturizing lotions packed with nutrients and anti-oxidants can also nourish and protect your skin. With a boost of hydration and nourishment, your skin can stay soft, supple, and healthy.
2. To Prevent and Repair Skin Damage due to Environmental Factors:
Prolonged exposure to air conditioners, winds, cold temperatures, and lowered humidity in the environment can damage the water-holding capacity of the outer layer of skin called the stratum corneum. Just as the wind dries clothes on the washing line, it dries out the outermost cells present on the skin's surface. This can result in dry, flaky skin. So, a moisturizer is a must to protect our skin from drying environmental conditions.
3. To Prevent Skin Dryness caused by Cleansing:
Cleansing your skin frequently with water and herbal soaps, harsh cleansers or frequent bathing can induce dryness of the skin. A moisturizer can help to balance the drying effect caused by cleansing with harsh soaps, cleansers, and water.
4. To Restore Skin health in Drying Skin Conditions:
Many people suffer from dry, rough, itchy, scaly skin in certain conditions like xerosis, psoriasis, eczema, atopic dermatitis, etc. Moisturizing skin can help maintain the water and lipid content of the outermost layer of skin thus, improving skin texture in drying skin conditions. The emollients in moisturizers may have a soothing and cooling effect on the skin as well.
5. To Delay Skin Aging
Fine lines and wrinkles on the face, sagging skin, and age spots are some visible signs of skin aging. Exposure to the sun’s harsh UV rays, harsh and drying environmental factors, unhealthy diet and lifestyle, stress, and disease conditions can cause the skin to age faster. Moisturizers containing herbal ingredients that are rich in anti-oxidants can repair as well as prevent further skin damage and thus help to delay skin aging by protecting the skin barrier.
With these reasons to moisturize, ensure that you take some time to pamper your skin in your daily skincare routine with an adequate amount of an herbal moisturizing lotion.
