Expert Answer

Try using a night cream or sleep mask for extra-soft skin. As you sleep, your skin tends to lose a lot of moisture. However, you can help prevent that by using a thick, moisturizing product, like a night cream, before bed. You can also use sleep masks, which are huge in Korea. You just slather it onto your skin before you go to bed, and you wake up and your skin is amazing!

Try putting on body oil after a shower, while your skin is still slightly damp. The oil will latch onto your skin, leaving a silky feeling.

Look for products that contain hyaluronic acid and ceramides. These ingredients help repair the skin barrier and hydrate the skin, which will make it softer.

Question

Can any type of moisturizing lotion be used?

Community Answer

Yes, but consider using a lotion with olive oil, coconut oil, or shea butter. Unscented lotions usually work better than scented lotions.

Question

Can I apply moisturizer in the shower?

Community Answer

I wouldn't recommend it as it will wash off before your skin absorbs it. However, if you turn the water off and dry off first, then you can apply the moisturizer while you're still standing in the shower.
