Hydrating Skincare Products

Absolutely! Oily skin types also require hydrating skincare to maintain a healthy balance. While it may seem counterintuitive to add hydration to already oily skin, using the right skincare for oily skin can help regulate oil production and prevent dehydration. Opt for lightweight, non-comedogenic hydrating products, such as Kiehl's Ultra-facial Oil-Free Gel Moisturiser that provides necessary moisture without clogging pores. By incorporating hydrating skin care into your routine, you can achieve a more balanced complexion and reduce the risk of overproduction of oil.

Several factors can help hydrate skin. Alongside adopting healthy lifestyle habits, using skincare products for hydration is a great place to start. When selecting hydrating products, look for nourishing ingredients like squalane for skin and hyaluronic acid or products that are labelled skincare for dry skin. If you have oily skin, look for lightweight products that will provide skin with essential moisture without clogging pores.

Building a hydrating skincare routine is simple. Start with a gentle cleanser that effectively removes impurities without stripping the skin of its natural oils. Follow it up with a hydrating skin toner to prep the skin for better product absorption. Next, apply a hydrating face serum infused with potent ingredients like hyaluronic acid, which attracts and retains moisture. For those with dry skin, consider layering a richer moisturiser over the serum. Don't forget sunscreen during the day to protect your skin from harmful UV rays. To complete your routine, incorporate a hydrating face mask once or twice a week for an extra boost of hydration. Consistency is key to achieving plump, radiant, and well-nourished skin.

When it comes to skincare products for hydration, several key ingredients stand out for their moisturising properties. See some of the best hydrating ingredients below:

-Hyaluronic acid - This well-renowned ingredient is capable of holding up to 1000 times its weight in water, providing intense hydration to all skin types.
- Niacinamide - Also known as Vitamin B3, this ingredient only helps to hydrate the skin but also strengthens the skin moisture barrier.
- Squalane - This ingredient is a signature ingredient in the Ultra Facial collection and will help to prevent moisture from leaving the skin and replenish the skin's moisture barrier.
