Should I moisturise my acne-prone skin?

Tackling acne-prone skin can sometimes feel like you’re treading a very fine tightrope. When it comes to reducing inflammation, it might be a blend of skincare, diet and even medication that keeps things at bay.

But should adding oils and moisturising agents be okayed, or should acne be kept dry?

According to James M Wilmot, a dermatologist speaking to ShareCare, anyone with this type of problem skin should never shirk from the full, usual skincare routine, including treating it regularly with moisturiser.

The reason for this is that there’s a difference between the signals of moisturization and the actual content of water.  Proper hydration is critical to have cellular metabolism function properly.  All the biochemical reactions that occur in your skin do so at a specific rate which is dependent on their concentration inside and outside the cells.  If there is insufficient moisture then the surface cells do not release evenly as single cells but as sheets of cells that can clog pores and induce acne.  Since acne is an inflammatory condition look for a moisturizer with soothing agents to quiet the skin.  All skin whether dry, normal or oily requires hydration.  However, we often determine the value of a moisturizer by how it makes the skin feel.  Moisturized skin is softer, more supple, plumper and less brittle.  While proper hydration will provide some of these signals, they are often imparted by other agents in the moisturizer such as the oils, humectants and emollients that are also present.   Be careful and do not use a product that contains oils or emollients that are “comedogenic”.   These materials can increase inflammation and therefore exasperate  an acne condition.
