The Truth About Moisturizer: Why Skipping It Is Sabotaging Your Skin

Yes, even in summer. Yes, even if your skin is oily.

When the temperature rises, many people think they can ditch their moisturizer.
“I’m already sweating.”
“My skin’s oily enough.”
“Sunscreen should be enough, right?”

But here’s the truth: skipping moisturizer can backfire — badly.

Moisturizer = Hydration + Balance + Barrier Support

Whether you’re oily, dry, or somewhere in between, your skin needs moisture to:

• Stay hydrated after cleansing
• Keep oil production under control
• Strengthen your skin barrier
• Prevent breakouts, dullness, and irritation

Dehydrated oily skin actually produces more oil to compensate.
So that midday shine? Could be from lack of moisture — not excess of it.

Sunscreen Alone Isn’t Enough

Think of it this way:
Moisturizer = hydration
Sunscreen = protection
You need both. Or — for extra ease — a moisturizer with SPF built-in.

 Meet Mörich: Smart Moisture + SPF 30 Protection

Mörich by SL Basics is an advanced, lightweight moisturizer made for real-life skin — and real-life routines. It hydrates, protects, and simplifies your morning in one step.

 Mörich Pink: For oily/acne-prone skin — lightweight, non-comedogenic

When & How to Use Moisturizer (Properly)

• Apply twice a day — morning & night
• Use 2–3 pea-sized dots, massaged into damp skin
• Use even on oily skin — especially before makeup or sunscreen
• Choose the right formula (like Mörich Pink) to avoid clogged pores
