7. Prevention: Moisturize

Well-hydrated skin is healthy and resists irritation, so moisturizing should always be part of daily skincare. Many natural substances are excellent moisturizers. Aloe vera contains mucopolysaccharides that bind water to epithelial cells on the skin's top layers. Jojoba, shea, and argan oils contain vitamin E and lipids. Buttermilk contains lactin, a natural exfoliating substance.
