There are moisturizers for all types of skin.  Dry, oily, and normal skin types can be helped with different skin moisturizers. 

Water Based Moisturizers:
 
These are good because they don’t leave a greasy feeling, they are not heavy, and are easy to apply.   Water based moisturizers are good for normal skin as well as oily skin.  Water based moisturizers are less likley to clog your pores if you have oily skin.

Oil Based Moisturizers:

This type of moisturizer is good for dry skin.  They contain more ingridents that keep your skin moist and they last longer then water-based moisturizers.

Tips for Moisturizing:

For best results it is found that if you moisturize after getting out of the shower or bath and patting yourself dry, the more water you will retain. 

Be careful when buying moisturizers, they don’t always do what they claim they do.  Sometimes it will take you a few tries before you find one that works for you.
