If dry skin isn't your only complexion concern, you might want to experiment with this multipurpose powerhouse. Not only does this oil help hydrate skin, but it is thought to fade dark spots and acne scars. Oh, and did we mention it's full of antioxidants? Packed with vitamin A, vitamin C and vitamin E, this ingredient will help you battle drying and the signs of aging.

This natural fat packs vitamins A and E, to leave your skin feeling smooth and soft. Research also indicates that it's a natural anti-inflammatory. Bonus: It helps to reduce fine lines and wrinkles.

We're giving you permission to embrace fats. Well, not the kind you get by plowing through ice cream cartons on the daily, but the ones that occur naturally on your skin. They're called ceramides and they help skin retain moisture. Chances are if you're suffering from parched skin, you're lacking this crucial fat. Another plus? Skin easily absorbs ceramides, which means thirsty skin will find fast relief with this moisture-sealing ingredient.

Think of this ingredient as a magical little sponge that can absorb an incredible amount of moisture. Just how much? A whopping 1,000 times its weight in water. That translates into some serious hydration for your skin. And since hyaluronic acid plumps up when it absorbs water, it also translates to minimized fine lines and wrinkles.
