How to choose the ideal moisturizing cream according to experts?
If you are looking for the perfect moisturizer for your face, it is crucial to take into account the recommendations of dermatologists and beauty experts. Maintaining firmness, avoiding irritation, combating blemishes, strengthening the skin and controlling shine are fundamental aspects that specialists highlight when choosing a moisturizing cream.
Maintain firmness
According to Maribel Yébenes, director of the Maribel Yébenes Beauty Institute, it is crucial to take care of the firmness of the skin to combat aging. The ideal cream should contain peptides and lipids to enhance the natural repair of the skin, thus avoiding possible alterations due to the use of homemade products.
Avoid irritations
Dr. José Luis Ramírez, dermatologist at the International Dermatological Clinic, warns about the importance of avoiding skin irritations. He recommends avoiding creams with perfumes or preservatives that may cause sensitization or allergies, and suggests stopping use if you experience itching or irritation.
Fight stains
Inmaculada Canterla, director of Cosmeceutical Center, highlights the importance of reinforcing the action of the anti-blemish cream with a serum that contains arbutin, kojic acid, licorice extract, vitamin B3 or azelaic acid, for complete skin care.
Strengthen the skin
Dr. Ana Fernández-Tresguerres, dermatologist at The Beauty Concept, recommends stimulating collagen production in thin skin to prevent bruising, highlighting the importance of using creams that strengthen the skin.
Control shine
Another tip from Dr. Ana Fernández-Tresguerres is to choose a cream that contains salicylic acid, alpha hydroxy acids and/or retinol to combat excess sebum in oily skin, thus avoiding premature aging.
