Tips for Healthy,
Moisturized Skin
Dry skin is caused by a loss of water in the upper layer of the skin. Moisturizing cleansers, like Albolene, form a layer on top of the skin that helps keep water in. Petrolatum and mineral oil are effective moisturizing ingredients found in Albolene’s 2-in-1 formula. Here are some tips to help keep your skin looking and feeling hydrated:
Occlusive moisturizers such as Albolene contain petrolatum and paraffin that seal the skin’s moisture in to keep skin supple and soft. Typical cleansers strip the skin of its moisture, causing dryness and flakiness, but Albolene provides both cleansing and moisturizing in one time-saving step.
Long, hot showers may feel great, but they can strip skin of its moisture and wash away protective oils. Limiting showers to no more than ten minutes and keeping the water a bit cooler can help limit moisture loss. Lock in moisture by applying a cream like Albolene within three minutes of exiting the bathtub or shower.
Central heating systems (as well as space heaters) blast hot, dry air throughout your home and office. Humidifiers get more moisture in the air, which helps prevent your skin from drying out. Place several small humidifiers throughout your home; they help disperse the moisture more evenly.

Frequently Asked Questions
Use an oil-based cleanser. Massage Albolene Moisturizing Cleanser onto dry skin so it melts and lifts everything — foundation, glitter, face paint, and waterproof mascara — then wipe away with a soft cloth or cotton pad. There is no need to scrub, and because it is oil-based, skin stays soft and moisturized rather than stripped.
Start with clean, well-moisturized skin so makeup glides on and lasts. A smooth, hydrated base is the foundation of every look in this section. Let your skincare absorb before applying primer or foundation, and at the end of the day remove everything gently so your skin stays healthy underneath.
No. Many of these makeup looks rely on clever, low-cost tricks rather than pro kits — a clean toothbrush for paint-splatter and star speckles, a piece of fishnet for mermaid scales, lash glue for fallout-free glitter liner, and a glue stick for blocking brows. Each tutorial walks you through the technique step by step.
