This short article will highlight some criteria for a bestselling skin moisturizer. We really cannot take these criteria for granted because if we did, we might be putting our health at risk. We should always be on our guard because in reality the number of skin moisturizer containing hazardous material is alarmingly high.

Firstly, skin moisturizer should only use organic materials with no synthetic chemicals in its processing, no pesticides, and no genetically modified compounds either. Furthermore, skin moisturizer should contain no carcinogen, allergens, or skin irritants among its ingredients. Any skin moisturizer that contains parabens, phthalates and sodium laurel sulphates must be avoided as well.

Secondly, ingredients that make up skin moisturizer should not be processed through heating, and should not be treated with harsh chemicals or acids. Heating, chemicals, and acids are used to make the ingredients can blend in better with other ingredients. A cold formulated type of processing is better because it guarantees that some of the natural oils will not lose their purity. Vaporizing the natural oils and then mix it with doubtful compounds may be a lot cheaper option, but it also dangerous to human users.

Last but not least, the ingredients that the best natural skin moisturizer should contain must not be just moisturizers but should also work in synergy to boost collagen and elastin, eradicate free radicals, and maintain hyaluronic acid levels. There are some natural ingredients that are able to fulfil these criteria. For instance, shea butter which is full of vitamin E and A and EFAs (essential fatty acids) is one of the best ingredients for skin moisturizer. Because of its composition, shea butter is bio compatible with human skin and is a match to humans’ own built moisturizers provided by sebaceous glands. Another example, avocado extract, is not only a natural moisturizer but is also a stimulant for collagen production.
