Hydrating Creams for Acne Prone Skin 
 
Moisturizing creams or hydrating creams are an essential part of daily skin care. They moisturize the skin 
and keep it hydrated, giving it a healthy glow and delaying wrinkles. But it needs a lot of wisdom to opt 
for a hydrating cream for acne prone skin.  
Acne prone skins are generally oily and there is myth that moisturizing creams make the skin even oilier. 
But the truth is, the oils present in these hydrating creams are good for the skin to enhance the 
complexion. Oily skins also need a moisturizer because they also tend to become dehydrated due to 
sweating and exposure to weather conditions and dirt. However, certain creams contain chemicals 
specifically to target acne and to cure them. Such hydrating creams should be your first choice. 
Before choosing a hydrating cream for your acne prone skin, you must consult your dermatologist to 
know about your skin type and the right type of hydrating cream that would suit your skin best. The 
choice of other skin care products also should be done accordingly.  
Hydrating creams which are non-comedogenic are considered to be the best for acne prone skins. Such 
creams are helpful in removing the clogs from the pores and dead cells. This would certainly keep a 
check on the frequency and intensity of the acne break outs. There are hydrating creams for normal, 
oily, dry as well as mixed type of skins. Some skins are allergic to certain objects, chemicals or food 
items. Care should be taken to address these problems also while choosing your hydrating cream. 
There are Allopathic, Ayurvedic, Homeopathic and many other types of hydrating creams which are 
available over the counter. Though they pass through quality checks and claim to be the best in the 
market, they may not suit your skin type. So do not buy any product blindly. Instead of treating, it might 
aggravate your problems. So always consult a dermatologist before deciding which hydrating cream to 
buy for your skin type.
