Do I really need to use a skin moisturizer?

Typically, your skin soaks up moisture to keep itself young and vital, but you lose the ability to do that as you age. Most commercial face creams are oil-based and work by blocking the release of water from the skin. As people grow older, however, they cannot rely on oil-based preparations to block the release of moisture.

That's because aged skin loses the ability to attract moisture in the first place and becomes fundamentally dehydrated. But the vitamin A family, commonly called retinoids, can increase the actual water content of the skin, without clogging the dead layer of cells. Retin-A contains retinoic acid, and requires a prescription.

Retinyl propionate, retinyl palmitate, retinaldehyde, and retinol don't require a prescription and are converted by your skin's own enzymes into retinoic acid.

We prefer natural moisturizers, like squalene (made from olives), avocado oil, walnut butter or cocoa butter, and ones that are proven to be hypoallogenic.

Apply it while you're still damp from the shower to seal the moisture in, and remember it's especially important to moisturize when you're flying, in high altitudes, or in dry climates. Many moisturizers pack sunscreen protection, too. An SPF 30 is a good choice.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
