JAKARTA - In skin care, the use of moisturizers or moisturizers is often considered a simple step even though their role is very important to maintain the health and balance of the skin.

Not only providing moisture, moisturizers also help strengthen skin protection layers from external threats such as pollution, UV light, and extreme weather changes.

For many people, especially those living in tropical climates such as Indonesia, the skin tends to become easily dehydrated due to exposure to the sun and dry air from the conditioning of the room. Without moisturizing, the skin can lose water faster, feel stiff, dry, or even anchovy.

Moisturizer works by locking water in the skin, preventing evaporation that causes dehydration. In addition, many modern moisturizers contain additional active ingredients that function to calm, care for, and improve skin conditions.

Regular use of moisturizers both morning and night can help improve skin texture, maintain elasticity, and reduce the risk of the emergence of fine lines and irritation. Even for oily skin, moisturizers are still needed because excess oil production is often a reaction from dry skin.

To maintain overall hydration, choosing a moisturizer that is suitable for the skin is equally important. Some moisturizers are now designed with different formulations to adapt to skin conditions.

One of them relies on 4D Hyaluronate, a further form of hyaluronic acid that works on various skin layers to bind water and maintain maximum humidity.

Its lightweight and absorbable texture makes this material suitable for use in the morning and evening, and suitable for almost all skin types, including those that tend to oily.

"The formula or content in the moisturizer must be adjusted to the needs of Indonesian tropical skin, such as those that give damp, mild, and do not clog pores," explained Maharari Kemala, founder of the Constitutional Court Skin in his statement.

Meanwhile, sensitive skin that is prone to redness and irritation requires special attention. Content such as Pantenol (Vitamin B5) and Niacinamide (Vitamin B3) are often used because they are proven to help relieve mild inflammation, strengthen barrier skin, and balance skin function to stay healthy.

The combination of these two ingredients also plays a role in accelerating the regeneration process, keeping the skin calm despite exposure to environmental stress.

"Selecting moisturizers should be done based on skin needs. The main focus is not only on the convenience of texture, but also on the function of content in providing protection," concluded Maharani.
