Curly haired people understand the importance of moisture for their hair because it turns frizz into soft beautiful hair. Your skin needs moisture, too! Now this is the tricky part—all skin types, just like hair types, are not created equally. It all depends on how you take care of your body, hair and skin. They work together so you can be your healthiest.
Besides needing lots of water, your skin needs everything it takes to maintain a healthy body because your skin is the largest organ in your body. Your lifestyle affects your skin and the sun is the most damaging—even tanning beds will make you look old before your time.
The best way of keeping your skin beautiful is to keep it adequately hydrated. You need to feed your skin nutrients and drink lots of water to help maintain a youthful look.
Good advice in referencing hyaluronic acid and other skin foods. I'm super oily and my skin loves green tea and mangoes!
I would disagree with the use of oil-free products for oily people however. They usually contain alcohols which dry the skin causing the skin to create MORE oil to compensate for the dryness.
I cleanse with oils (carrot seed and wheat germ oil OR avocado oil) and swear by my oil-based A-RET as an acne, wrinkle and texture treatment, NOT the alcohol based RETIN-A distributed in the U.S. For moisture I use water or fresh aloe juice or glycerin and GARDEN OF WISDOM'S Fruity Meow Lotion as a super-light, natural emollient.
