The 3 minute moisture rule The most effective way to lock in moisture is to apply to damp skin, which is usually within 3 minutes of stepping out the bath or shower. Allowing your skin to dry out completely before applying moisturiser gives the moisture in your skin time to evaporate.

The 3-Step Moisture Method™: Step 1️⃣: Add tap water so that your skin is damp, not dripping wet. Step 2️⃣: Before the water dries, add 2-4 drops of your favorite humectant serum. Step 3️⃣: Before this dries, add a pea-size or a pea and a half of your favorite moisturizer to seal everything in.
Immediately after stepping out of the shower or bath, GENTLY PAT DRY your skin (leaving SOME droplets of water present.) Quickly apply your moisturizer (Vaseline or one of your choice) to the itchiest parts of your body first! Then the rest of your body within 3 minutes of patting dry.
Remember the 3-minute rule. The moisturizer should go on before 3 minutes go by after coming out of the bath or shower.

The “fingertip unit” is used to measure the amount of cream or ointment to be used in dermatology: it is a strip of product squeezed on to the index finger, from the distal crease to the fingertip. With the rule of nines, the body's surface area is divided into 11 areas, each representing roughly 9% of the total (box).
Ironic, we know, but moisturising your skin too much can leave your skin feeling dry. Just when you think that moisturising multiple times a day is doing your skin good, it's actually doing the opposite.
In humid conditions at 15°C (60 °F) and above, humectants can actually attract too much water in the air and have a reverse effect causing frizz, fluffiness and result in your curls losing their shape.
A good humectant will retain moisture both over a wide range of humidity conditions (equilibrium hygroscopicity) and for a long time (dynamic hygroscopicity). The most common humectant used in cosmetics is glycerine, which works on several parameters and is pretty much considered the gold standard of humectants.
What Is Better – Glycerin or Hyaluronic Acid? Go for glycerin if you're looking to add moisture, bounce and balance. To lock in hydration you have, hyaluronic acid is the best go-to. HA is more likely to stop dry skin from getting worse, making it a great dry skin treatment, while glycerin adds moisture.

Typically, the treatment is meant to be done once every two weeks, while the rest of the maximum hydration steps can be done weekly. Remember, introducing your strands to hydrating products too often can offset your moisture levels and cause more harm than good.
The range of optimum moisture content for the delignification of the substrate varies around 70–80% (Turgay, 2007).
Using clean-gloved hands, your dermatologist will then inspect your skin from head to toe, including your scalp, back, behind the ears and between the toes (they might not inspect your genitals unless you have specific concerns in that area).
No, you don't need to shave or wax. However, if there's something going on with your skin, shaving or waxing will make it easier for your physician to evaluate the area.
