I hate “moisturizers”. Ok, maybe hate is too strong of a word but here’s why: They often don’t truly moisturize at all. Often you are unknowingly coating your skin with a “protective” layer of chemicals and irritating ingredients that actually work to weaken the skin over time. Some moisturizers also add to the problem of acne or clogged pores for individuals that are susceptible to those conditions.
So instead of traditional “moisturizer” I prefer these two wonderful products that help the skin to maintain it’s own moisture instead of just gunking it up with…gunk!
Recovery Plus from 302 Professional Skincare:
A facial moisturizer - light, non-residual, effective lotion with a wonderful essential oil blend. This is an outstanding product for milder climates and mild skin dryness that leaves the skin perfectly toned without residual feel.
Symptomatic relief, hydration, and rapid barrier build out through prompting of carbamoyl phosphate formation, an essential step in the process.
Restores natural systemic moisture functions to the skin - it helps the skin produce its own moisture.
Compliments other topicals and may be used daily without causing skin fatigue as so often occurs with many topical moisturizers.
Reduces the appearance of irritation
