4 tips to choose the right moisturizer for acne-prone skin

Acne forms when the skin produces too much oil, creating a favorable environment for acne-causing bacteria to grow. Many people think that acne-prone skin should not use moisturizer. In fact, this is a misconception. Without enough moisture, the skin tends to produce more oil to compensate for the lost moisture. This amount of oil easily attracts bacteria and dirt, clogs pores and causes acne. Therefore, moisturizing is an indispensable step in the skin care routine for acne-prone skin.

It is very important to choose a mild moisturizer that fully hydrates the skin without clogging pores. Leinné Beauté introduces 4 ways to choose the right moisturizer for acne-prone skin.

 

 

1. Choose moisturizers with good ingredients for acne-prone skin

Ingredients are an important factor to consider when choosing a moisturizer for acne-prone skin. You should pay attention to ingredients that help prevent and treat acne:

- Ceramide: one of the three lipid forms involved in the structure of the membrane on the skin surface and accounts for 40-50% of lipids in the outermost layer of the skin. This ingredient helps to maintain moisture, strengthen and restore the skin barrier, and reduce the risk of aging.

- Niacinamide: fights inflammation, strengthens the skin barrier, regulates the amount of oil on the skin, anti-oxidant, prevents dark spots and moisture loss.

- Sodium hyaluronate: helps skin to stay hydrated, moist, firm and smooth.

These are also the 3 ingredients in the Riku First Milk moisturizer in the product line that Leinné Beauté introduced in the first topic "The healing theme". 

- BHA, AHA: exfoliating ingredients, useful in treating acne, cleaning pores. However, if you are using specialized acne products, adding a moisturizer containing these ingredients may cause irritation. Therefore, you should consider your own needs to choose the right product.

 

 

2. Choose moisturizers with lightweight texture

Acne skin should choose products with gentle, lightweight texture such as gels, lotions, etc. They are able to penetrate into the skin quickly, do not cause greasy skin, and do not clog pores, thereby limiting the amount of oil on the skin, reducing the risk of acne.

3. Prioritize products with natural ingredients

Acne skin is damaged, so you should prioritize products with natural moisturizing ingredients such as aloe, shea butter, jojoba, rose,... You should stay away from alcohol, fragrances or coloring ingredients.

You may consider products labeled oil-free, non-comedogenic and non-acnegenic.

Riku First Milk Cream with shea butter and colostrum essence is 60 times more effective than regular milk to help moisturize the skin for hours, stimulate collagen production to nourish the skin, improve its natural structure and skin elasticity as well as reducing the appearance of dark circles.

 

 

4. Use a separate moisturizer for different skin areas

Each skin area has its own characteristics and needs. While the T-zone is often oily, the cheeks are often drier, prone to darkening and aging. The skin around the eyes is very delicate and more likely to show signs of aging. Therefore, for optimal care, you should choose a separate moisturizing product for each skin area, thereby helping the product achieve high efficiency, nourish healthy and beautiful skin.

Riku First Milk Cream moisturizer with colostrum extract, which is 60 times more effective than regular milk, will be the right choice for the skin on both cheeks, helping to nourish the skin from the inside. Riku Moisturizing Serum with a light, fast-absorbing liquid texture can be used all over the face, leaving skin hydrated and radiant.
