If your skin feels like it’s missing that hydration magic, you’re in the right place. Rough, dry, and dehydrated skin may be trying to tell you something.
Moisturizer is a staple must-have in a skincare routine but is it really what your skin needs? It’s time to learn about what you may be missing out on.
Find out what the Natural Moisturizing Factor is and the real reason your skin is behaving badly.
The Natural Moisturizing Factor (NMF) is part of the natural makeup of your skin. It is the collective name for a mixture of substances:
The Natural Moisturizing Factor plays a vital role in skin hydration. These collective substances help the skin maintain its health and hydration.
They are like tiny sponges that live in your skin’s epidermis. They attract and draw in water from the environment. Essential for the skin to flourish.
Yet, they can be weakened. When this happens, they no longer do their job so well. They can’t draw in enough water to the skin. Our skin can no longer hydrate itself.
This can leave us with rough and dry skin texture. The dryness can enhance the signs of premature aging on the skin such as wrinkles and crepiness.
Low levels of NMF have been found in many skin disorders such as psoriasis and atopic dermatitis.
Just like with most things in life, if you don’t look after it properly, you pay the price. Unfortunately, the same goes for the Natural Moisturizing Factor.
While these guys are always trying to do their very best for our skin, many factors can disrupt the way they work. Ultimately impacting the skin’s ability to stay truly hydrated.
Soap may be great for feeling squeaky clean. But it’s not so great for the make-up of your Natural Moisturizing Factor. Many other skincare products can also be harsh on the skin. Stripping away the goodness of your Natural Moisturizing Factor. Ultimately, leaving it dehydrated and dryer than before.
By now, we all know that sun exposure can be dangerous for the health of our skin. And it’s no different for our Natural Moisturizing Factor. Overexposure to UV radiation can impact your Natural Moisturizing Factor. When this happens it can cause the skin to become dehydrated and enhance premature aging.
Whether we like it or not, every day we get older. Unfortunately, the production of the Natural Moisturizing Factor decreases as we age. This can make us more susceptible to dehydrated skin. Enhancing the appearance of dry, rough, and crepey texture. None of which help the appearance of our wrinkles.
Exposure to extreme weather conditions can be harmful. Too much cold, wind or dry air can reduce the levels of Natural Moisturizing Factor in the skin.
Some people are born with lower levels of Natural Moisturizing Factor. This can cause a predisposition to chronic dry skin conditions.
Hydration and moisture. Two completely different entities. The Natural Moisturizing Factors are naturally occurring in the makeup of your skin. They are humectants. Humectants job is to draw water into the skin like tiny sponges. This keeps the skin hydrated and healthy.
If the skin isn’t adequately hydrated, it probably won’t help you like what you see in the mirror. This skin dehydration causes rough texture and dryness. This can lead to irritation and sensitivity.
The Natural Moisturizing Factor is a key player in the skin’s desquamation. Essentially, what the skin needs to shed old, damaged skin cells. When functioning optimally, they promote skin cell turnover. This aids the skin’s ability to heal and repair.
The Natural Moisturizing Factors are essential for healthy skin barrier function. They help the skin maintain its plasticity. Your skin barrier is like a shield from environmental damage. Protecting you from pollutants, irritants, and harmful pathogens.
When the Natural Moisturizing Factor is healthy, it puts up a strong defense. Proving protection in harsh weather conditions and UV radiation. Preventing you from skin damage and premature aging.
There is no harm in continuing to use your general day-to-day moisturizer. But if you’re noticing signs of dehydrated skin, you may see more benefits using one enriched with NMF.
If your skin is rough, dry, or crepey, your NMF may not be functioning adequately. Incorporating these naturally occurring substances back into your skin. By supporting them, you can help them flourish again.
This study wanted to explore an NMF moisturizer vs a normal ceramide moisturizer. What did they find? The group that used the NMF-enriched moisturizer had the most significant results. The NMF moisturizer dramatically increased the levels of hydration in the skin.
Thankfully, adding hydration back to your skin couldn’t be more easy. Sculpt helps your NMF get back to work. Restoring and rehydrating your skin. Helping to smooth rough, dry, and crepey textured skin. All for a plump, radiant, and glowing skin complexion.
Finally, who emerges victorious in the battle of NMF vs moisturizer? The answer is clear – it’s all about giving your NMF the support it needs to thrive.
The Natural Moisturizing Factor is essential for adequate skin hydration. Without it, we are less protected from harm and we are prone to rough textured skin.
Continuing to use the average moisturizer won’t cause harm. But it won’t address the root cause of dehydrated, dry skin. It’s all about supporting your Natural Moisturizing Factor.
Add NMF-friendly products like Sculpt to your skincare routine. Restore your Natural Moisturizing Factor and battle back against dry, aging skin.
