Emolients<\/h3>\n<p><strong>Emollients<\/strong> are what make up the \u201cforce field\u201d component of your moisturizer and help prevent the loss of your skin\u2019s existing water and sebum oil. Petroleum jelly is one of the most common emollients used in moisturizers that rely on synthetic ingredients, and will form a plastic-like barrier on your skin\u2019s surface that locks in bacteria, dead skin cells and sweat along with moisture. As its name suggests, it\u2019s also derived from petroleum, the same as gasoline. Some good natural emollients you can look for as alternatives to petroleum jelly include olive oil, jojoba oil, coconut oil, and <a title=\"shea butter lotion\" href=\"https:\/\/www.castlebaths.com\/hand-body-lotion-pa.html\">shea butter<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h3>2. Humectants<\/h3>\n<p><strong>Humectants <\/strong>are what actually infuse your skin with additional moisture, as opposed to merely preserving your skin\u2019s existing moisture. Humectants achieve this by helping to increase the flow of water from your skin\u2019s deeper layers to the outer layer (epidermis) and\/or drawing water from your surrounding environment (ex: the steam in your bathroom after showering) into your skin through your pores. <a title=\"natural glycerin for skin\" href=\"https:\/\/www.castlebaths.com\/natural-glycerin-for-skin.html\">Natural glycerin<\/a> is an ideal natural humectant ingredient to look for when shopping for a moisturizer.<\/p>\n<h3>3. Emulsifiers<\/h3>\n<p><strong>Emulsifiers <\/strong>are what mixes your moisturizer\u2019s water and oil content together along with all of its other ingredients to create a smooth, creamy, even texture. Some moisturizers use alcohols as emulsifiers, which can be drying to the skin and thus, defeat the purpose of moisturizing. Natural alternative emulsifiers include vegetable-based e-wax (the natural wax extracted from the skin of vegetables) or bee\u2019s wax.<\/p>\n<h3>4. Penetration Enhancers<\/h3>\n<p><strong>Penetration enhancers<\/strong> help your skin absorb your moisturizer\u2019s other ingredients. Moisturizers that rely on synthetic ingredients will sometimes use penetration enhancers that work by breaking apart the natural protective barrier that exists within your skin\u2019s epidermis, leaving your skin exposed to the elements and bacterial infections, and once again defeating the purpose of moisturizing. <a title=\"rice bran oil for skin\" href=\"https:\/\/www.castlebaths.com\/rice-bran-oil-for-skin.html\">Cold pressed rice bran oil<\/a> and<em> linoleic<\/em> and <em>oleic<\/em> acids are ideal natural penetration enhancers. Some moisturizers are formulated to linger on the outer layer of the skin and thus, will not include penetration enhancers.<\/p>\n<h3>5. Active Ingredients<\/h3>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/castlebaths.com\/cb-splash\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/iStock_000010307803_Medium.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-7838\" src=\"https:\/\/castlebaths.com\/cb-splash\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/iStock_000010307803_Medium-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"moisturizer ingredients\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/castlebaths.com\/cb-splash\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/iStock_000010307803_Medium-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/castlebaths.com\/cb-splash\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/iStock_000010307803_Medium-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/castlebaths.com\/cb-splash\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/iStock_000010307803_Medium.jpg 1000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a>Active ingredients<\/strong> include, quite simply, everything that isn\u2019t one of the aforementioned ingredients or a preservative. For example, <a title=\"green tea moisturizer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.castlebaths.com\/green-tea-infusion.html\">green tea<\/a> extract is rich in antioxidants, which help combat free radical damage from the sun\u2019s UV rays and prevent premature aging.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>&#8230;there&#8217;s a lot more to picking a moisturizer than liking its scent or thinking it looks creamy<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>I found out the hard way that there&#8217;s a lot more to picking a moisturizer than liking its scent or thinking it looks creamy.
