Moisturiser

Yes, oily skin needs a moisturiser just as much as dry skin. Oily skin indicates that your skin is dehydrated, leading to excess sebum production. Oily skin also tends to be more sensitive and prone to inflammation and breakouts. To prevent this, use a daily face moisturiser for sensitive skin like the Within Beauty Daily Dew Gel Moisturiser. It is a lightweight, hydrating moisturiser that moisturises the skin without making it feel greasy or sticky.

No, it is not. We always recommend using sunscreen with at least SPF 30 & above to get optimum protection from harsh UV rays throughout the day.

Just picking any moisturiser with a good review from the internet isn’t enough. To choose the best one, it is important to first identify your skin type. Here’s a quick guide to picking the best moisturisers for all skin types: 

Moisturiser for oily skin - Opt for a gel moisturiser that feels weightless on the skin and absorbs in seconds like the Daily Dew Gel Moisturiser. This lightweight hydrating moisturiser gets the job done without leaving behind a greasy, oily layer on the skin & does not clog pores. 

Moisturiser for dry skin - Dry skin requires a richer formulation that feels creamy but without feeling greasy. The Hello Hydration Cream Moisturiser is the best moisturiser for dry skin. The rich, creamy texture locks in hydration for 72 hours and offers barrier-restoring benefits too. 

Moisturiser for combination skin - A lightweight hydrating moisturiser with ingredients like hyaluronic acid or ceramides is considered best for combination skin. 

Moisturiser for sensitive skin - If you have dry, sensitive skin then opt for a ceramide moisturiser like the Hello Hydration Cream Moisturiser. And if you have oily, sensitive skin then opt for a gel moisturiser like the Daily Dew Gel Moisturiser which hydrates & helps relieve inflammation all at once. 

Moisturiser for acne-prone skin - A lightweight hydrating moisturiser that is non-comedogenic and doesn’t clog pores is ideal for acne-prone skin, like the Daily Dew Gel Moisturiser. It has a light, gel texture that absorbs into the skin effortlessly and hydrates thoroughly without clogging pores. It also helps relieve inflammation & helps fix your skin barrier.

The basic function of a moisturiser is to keep the skin hydrated. A good ceramide moisturiser does that and more. Not only do they hydrate the skin, but the presence of ceramides helps support your skin’s natural barrier function making your skin feel hydrated & healthy from the inside out.

The basic differences between a cream & a gel moisturiser are their texture and feel. A cream moisturiser tends to have a thicker, richer formulation and feels like a layer of nourishment on dry skin. A gel moisturiser on the other hand is lighter on the skin and absorbs into the skin like water. To understand the difference between the two types of moisturisers, take a look at the textures of Daily Dew Gel Moisturiser & Hello Hydration Cream Moisturiser. Made for oily, sensitive skin & dry to normal skin types, the two moisturisers vary in texture that serves the respective skin types. But they both offer the same lightweight feel while delivering a boost of hydration.

The best moisturisers for all skin types is one with ceramides. A ceramide moisturiser goes the extra mile to lock in the moisture and repair your skin’s natural barrier function that will help you achieve plump, hydrated skin with every use.

The moisturiser cream for face from Within Beauty, the Hello Hydration Cream Moisturiser is best for winter months. It has a rich, creamy texture that does not leave behind a greasy residue. Although it has a thicker texture, it absorbs into the skin like a dream and locks in moisture for 72 hours helping keep dry, dehydrated skin moisturised throughout the day. 

Yes, the same moisturiser can be used twice a day. Both moisturisers are tailored to provide long-lasting hydration, which makes them perfect to use both during the day & night.

To ensure that a moisturiser is non-comedogenic, check the pack for its main ingredients. Ingredients like hyaluronic acid, allantoin, glycerin, niacinamide & aloe vera are considered non-comedogenic. Another way to check if a moisturiser is non-comedogenic is by how fast it absorbs into the skin & its texture. Non-comedogenic moisturisers tend to absorb into the skin in seconds and do not leave behind a greasy residue. When looking for a sensitive skin moisturiser, or even for acne-prone skin, always look for one that is non-comedogenic to prevent any possible breakouts. Even if a moisturiser checks all the right boxes on the non-comedogenic list, we recommend doing a patch test for 2 weeks to check for any skin sensitivities. 

Use a lightweight hydrating moisturiser twice a day in your AM & PM routine. Use it along with an SPF 50 sunscreen during the day and with a compatible serum or treatment at night.
