What are Body Moisturizers?  

Moisturizers are products that provide moisture for the skin and help it remain hydrated. These particular products are made for body care. On the other end, there are facial moisturizers. 

Body moisturizers typically come as creams, lotions, ointments, balms, or gels. They are sometimes also referred to as “emollients,” which comes from the Latin verb “mollire,” meaning to soften.

Moisturizers contain occlusives and/or humectants. 

  • Occlusives: Ingredients that form a coating on the surface of the skin, preventing moisture from escaping.

  • Humectants: Ingredients that absorb water from the air and moisturize the skin. 

Why You Should Use Body Moisturizers

Through an effect called Transepidermal Water Loss, water in the human body constantly evaporates from the deep layers of the skin. Hence, it is essential that we provide moisture to the soin and help it remain hydrated. With a properly regulated water content, our skin can naturally maintain a barrier that shields it against damage, dirt, and pathogens. At the same time, it keeps the layers from drying out and becoming rigid and brittle. 

Using body moisturizers is the best way of giving our skin the water it needs. 

Who Should Use Body Moisturizers?

Anyone and everyone should use body moisturizers. However, it is not enough to use just any moisturizer. It is important that you get one that is suitable and supportive of your skin type. It should deliver what your skin wants and needs. 

When shopping for body moisturizers, think about what your skin type is, what do you expect to get from using body moisturizer, and how much you are willing to pay for it. It is also not a bad idea to consider the brand behind your moisturizer of choice. 

The Body Moisturizer You Should Choose for Your Skin Type 

Normal Skin & Combination Skin 

If you have this skin type, you are in luck! You can use any type of moisturizer and not have to worry about compatibility. 

If your skin is normal but leans towards the dry side, you may want to use a thicker and creamier moisturizer.

If your skin is normal but also slightly oily, a gel or gel cream or water cream may be ideal. 

 

Dry Skin

You should look for a moisturizing cream that contains both oil and water ingredients so they can balance drawing in moisture and retaining moisture.

Oily Skin

The best body moisturizer for oily skin is a water-based and oil-free one. Think gel moisturizers. These are mostly packed with humectants that serve as rejuvenators for additional benefits. They are non-greasy and lightweight, so they will not weigh your skin down or clog your pores, and are good for acne-prone skin.

Sensitive Skin 

If you have sensitive skin, you should look for moisturizers that are free of parabens and irritants. In addition, the moisturizers should be fragrance-free. As you can see, with sensitive skin, what is not included in the formula is more important to think about than what is.

Types of Body Moisturizers 

Emollients 

Body moisturizers, referred to as emollients, contain oil and lipid, or fatty acid, ingredients. You can find in them ceramides, cocoa butter, collagen, dimethicone, lanolin, mineral oil, shea butter, or jojoba oil. 

The ingredients fill the skin’s crevices, making it look smoother and more uniform. As a result, the skin texture and appearance are improved. 

Certain emollients, such as collagen, are used for their anti-aging properties. They can minimize the appearance of wrinkles, fine lines, and crow’s feet. Other emollients, like ceramides, can assist with treating eczema.

Humectants

These body moisturizers are formulated with ingredients like alpha hydroxy acids (AHA), glycerin, hyaluronic acid, lactic acid, or urea. They draw moisture from the air to the outer layers of the skin, the epidermis, and the stratum corneum, hydrating and replenishing the skin. 

Occlusives 

Moisturizers, dubbed by their occlusive content, include oil ingredients. They are, therefore, also called oil-based moisturizers. Examples of oil ingredients you will find in these body moisturizers are beeswax, petrolatum, silicones, and petroleum jelly. These create a protective seal that safeguards the skin and prevents moisture loss.

Body moisturizers can also be categorized by their texture. There are creams, lotions, ointments, balms, and gels. These are the more common “names” you will find while shopping.
