A good hydrating moisturiser should be a staple in your skincare and beauty routine. The right face moisturiser for your skin type will not only help protect sensitive skin, but it will also help improve skin tone and texture, while simultaneously reducing redness and imperfections. Moisturising your face also helps to lessen a phenomenon known as transepidermal water loss — the water that your skin loses throughout the day. Moisturisers act as a barrier to water loss by holding water in the outer layer of skin, protecting against the harmful effects of stress, and acting as a barrier to environmental pollutants that can cause your skin to age prematurely. By including face moisturisers with anti-pollution complex in your beauty routine, you're not just hydrating your skin but also protecting it from the harmful effects of stress, sun damage, and pollution.
