Moisturize and hydrating both are terms commonly used to describe various skin-care products that help to maintain or increase the overall moisture levels of the body. Both moisturizing and hydrating cosmetics do just that by maintaining or drawing moisture in through the air to the surface of the face and body, while hydrating cosmetics also do this by holding water in the body for a healthy circulation of water to the surface of the face and body to give it a soft and supple feel.

So what is hydrating? When you use products that hydrate, you can be sure that your skin will look and feel smooth, youthful and healthy. In fact, many experts consider hydrating as the most important step in the process of making up for dry skin, because in the case of dehydrated skin there are far more problems to deal with than just dull skin. This is a particularly important consideration if you suffer from wrinkles, skin cracks and other signs of aging.

The first step in making your skin care regimen healthier is to choose a moisturizing skin care product. In general most moisturizers contain petrolatum, which has a high molecular weight (which makes it more sticky than liquid) which makes it a poor choice for regular use. While petrolatum is fine for the occasional moisturizing bath or shower, it does nothing to moisturize the face or body.

The best products for your skin are the ones that have natural ingredients, like Cynergy TK and Coenzyme Q10. These two substances will not only moisturize the body but they will repair and restore the collagen and elastin in the body as well as the hyaluronic acid in the body, which is what gives the skin its elasticity and firmness.

Hydrating cosmetics are also a great way to protect the face and body from damage caused by the sun. The sun’s harmful ultraviolet rays can lead to serious damage to the body’s cells, including sun spots, age spots and sagging skin. By using moisturizers that contain SPF 15, these skin-healthy ingredients will provide protection against the sun’s harmful UV rays while still maintaining an all-over glow.

If you use hydrating skin care products to hydrate your skin, use them regularly and use them in the proper amounts, you can look and feel healthier and younger for years to come. Just remember to choose a hydrating skin care product that contains natural ingredients that are safe for your skin, and your budget. With that in mind, consider using the Skin Deep Cream System to learn more about the right products for you.
