    Keeping your skin hydrated is one of the best possible ways to keep wrinkles at bay. Moisturise your skin as a part of your regular skin care regime because well-moisturised skin glows with health, looks younger and feels supple. Choosing the right facial cream is therefore extremely important. While there are hundreds of brands available in the market, we understand how difficult it is to zoom in on one that is best for your skin.

    5 ESSENTIAL INGREDIENTS YOUR FACIAL CREAM MUST HAVE

    So, while picking your facial cream, look for these top 5 essential ingredients that would nourish your skin like never before:

     

    1. ANTIOXIDANTS

    Antioxidants help to protect your skin against the damaging effects of free radicals that are responsible for premature skin aging. Thus, if your face cream is antioxidant-rich, it will impart younger-looking skin. While investing in a face cream, look for ingredients like Vitamin E, Green Tea Extracts, Coffee Berry Extracts, Grape Seed Oil and Vitamin C. Resveratrol, which is a potent antioxidant, is commonly found in red wine, fruits and nuts. Hence, you may even look for these components in your face cream.

    1. VITAMIN A

    Vitamin A is an essential ingredient that should be present in your face cream to help treat acne, greasiness, wrinkles and thickened skin. Look for terms like Retinols, Retinoids, Retin-A, Renova and Retinyl Palmitate in the list of active ingredients while choosing your face cream. Retinols and Retinoids are forms of Vitamin A that help boost collagen, unclog pores and prevent skin discoloration. If you want a herbal or natural formulation, ensure that it contains Vitamin-A rich ingredients like rosehip seed oil, carrot extracts and apricot extracts.

    3.PEPTIDES

    Peptides or Amino Acids are essential for preventing sagging of skin, increasing skin elasticity, promoting skin healing and stimulating collagen production. So, if you want your face cream to deliver you anti-aging benefits, can you really ignore peptides?

    1. HYALURONIC ACID

    As the process of aging sets in, our skin is rendered incapable of preserving moisture content. Now, this is where the significance of Hyaluronic Acid comes in. Hyaluronic Acid, present in your skincare product, helps in replenishing moisture thereby making skin look firm and plump and keeps wrinkles as well as fine lines away.

    1. SUN PROTECTION

    When SPF is there in the ingredient list of your face cream, you need not worry about the damaging effects of the sun, whether you stay indoors or indulge in outdoor activities on a bright sunny day. It is advised that you look for that SPF (30 and above) while choosing your facial cream so that apart from nourishing and moisturizing your skin, it also ensures that sun tan and age spots are woes forgotten!

    ADDITIONAL TIPS

    • Look for the term-‘non comedogenic’ on the label; this will ensure that your facial cream would not result in blocked pores.
    • If your facial cream contains essential oils as active ingredients, use it only after consulting your physician, especially if you are pregnant or you have sensitive skin.
    • Apply your face cream on cleansed skin to reap maximum benefits. Massage it gently in upward circular motions till it gets absorbed.
