The Truth About Moisturizers: Why Your Skin Needs One (No Matter What)

The Truth About Moisturizers: Why Your Skin Needs One (No Matter What). Janine Shore from North Bethesda' and Rockville’s Shore Dermatology practice gives you the 101 on moisturizers in skincare, why they’re imporant and what to look for based on your circumstances.

Moisturizer Myths, Debunked

🚫 “Oily skin doesn’t need moisturizer.”
Yes, it does. Stripping away oil only makes your skin produce more—hello, breakouts. The fix? A lightweight, oil-free moisturizer that hydrates without clogging pores.

🚫 “Moisturizer will make me break out.”
Not if you’re using the right one. If you’re acne-prone, look for non-comedogenic formulas with niacinamide and hyaluronic acid—hydrating without triggering breakouts.

🚫 “Anti-aging creams are more important than moisturizer.”
Not so fast. Retinol, peptides, and vitamin C are great, but if your skin isn’t properly moisturized, those actives won’t absorb well—and can actually cause irritation. Hydration is the foundation of any anti-aging routine.
