How to retain skin moisture from WITHIN?

[Mrhaircut33]

Not talking about moisturizers etc i'm talking about what helps the skin moisture from the inside out. I know T3 supplementation does this for me through raising thyroid. Anything else?

Urine retention. Works for me.

Any kind of occlusive. Vaseline is a good bet. If that's too thick, opt for a lighter emollient.

On a serious note, vaseline and coconut oil should do the trick.

Estrogen, betaine

my skin doesnt absorb any of it all

literally just sits on top of my skin

Coconut oil is very comedogenic, so it will clog most peoples pores

Maybe I don't see it because I exfoliate a lot tbh.
