Questions You Might Have
What is moisturiser made of?
Moisturisers are smooth blends of water, oils, and skin friendly ingredients that help keep skin soft. These components work together to hydrate and protect the skin.
What do oils and butters do in moisturiser?
Natural or gentle oils (like shea, almond, or coconut) help lock in moisture and protect the skin. They create a barrier that prevents water loss and keeps skin soft.
How do I choose moisturiser for sensitive skin?
Look for moisturisers made for sensitive skin with minimal ingredients, no fragrance, and gentle, natural oils. These formulations reduce the risk of irritation while still providing hydration.
