L'Oreal Paris Hydra Genius Hyaluronic Acid Plus Aloe Liquid Hydrating Moisturiser, Rehydrating and Reinvigorating Face Serum for Normal to Combination Skin, White, 70 ml (Pack of 1)

Product Information

If your skin is stressed and irritated, your best bet is to treat it with a calming moisturizer like this one from Innisfree. Truth be told, the best anti-aging ingredient to incorporate into your routine is SPF (the sun actually speeds up the aging process). So technically, even though any of the moisturizers on our list will protect against signs of aging, this Origins moisturizer takes that defense to the next level with its smart formula that hydrated, protected and tightened our skin. You should use a moisturiser while the skin is still slightly damp,” says Dr Soma. Applying a hydrating facial mist or serum before your cream will ensure sustained moisture throughout the day and will prevent dehydration lines from appearing by noon.

Odds are, you’ve heard of SkinCeuticals’ iconic moisturizer. If not, allow us to introduce you. The Triple Lipid Restore 2:4:2 moisturizer features an optimal lipid ratio—2 percent pure ceramides, 4 percent natural cholesterol, and 2 percent fatty acids—which is responsible for making this anti-aging cream one of the best out there. This blend of lipids aims to restore those essential skin lipids lost from natural aging or environmental aggressors (or a combo of the two). After just one use, we were hooked on how silky smooth our skin felt, plus the fact that skin appears more radiant and full is the cherry on top. What We Love: On top of SPF protection, this moisturizer offers a handful of great benefits, including fading the look of dark spots and smoothing pores. Like other products in the brand’s repertoire, The Water Cream is free of parabens, mineral oil, and sulfates. It does contain ultra-hydrating botanicals, like Japanese leopard lily and wild rose, plus plumping hyaluronic acid. We were impressed by how well the gel cream soothed minor skin irritations from the first application to weeks of continued use, thanks to soothing ingredients like green tea and algae. Who It’s For We know how difficult it is to find a good moisturizer for oily skin. The formula needs to strike a perfect balance between feeling lightweight and providing ample moisture, all without making skin look like a grease pool. While so many oil-free moisturizers promise that, many fall flat, but not Fenty Skin Hydra Vizor. Dr. Lee recommends using a moisturizer that provides SPF 30 or higher. “The higher the SPF, the better protected you will be,” she says.Natural Moisturising Factor( NMF) is a group of moisturising ingredients that are found in your skin and help maintain skin hydration. NMF depletes over time with exposure to external aggressors. Hydro Boost Water Gel is supercharged with an NMF complex that boosts the skin's full hydration potential. As standard, once a day is key and particularly after showering,” says Dr Soma. “However, for people with dry skin or a damaged barrier – and especially those with dry skin conditions such as eczema – they often need to moisturise 3+ times per day,” she adds. But what really made this option stand out was its ability to protect our skin from the blazing hot sun. In fact, we slathered this moisturizer all over our face while vacationing in the Caribbean and didn’t get burned once. After a few days spent on the beach, our sunburnt friends started to use it, too.

As we mentioned, this is a stellar choice for anyone who suspects they have a compromised skin barrier or anyone looking to treat ultra-dry, itchy, or irritated skin. Mawazi SM, et al. (2022). A review of moisturizers; history, preparation, characterization, and applications. Like many Lancôme products, this one is made with a calming rose scent, which lingered in the air longer than we expected. Though we didn’t mind, it could be potentially irritating, especially for those with sensitive skin. Shea Butter: Rich in vitamin E and vitamin A, shea butter has moisturising, soothing and antioxidant properties.A good moisturiser will prevent skin from getting dull and dry and keep it looking healthy. Your razor can also cause irritation, so it's especially important to condition your skin after shaving. That's why many moisturisers for men contain soothing ingredients, such as aloe vera, to reduce itching and redness. How To Choose A Moisturiser What We Love: This moisturizer is made with hydrating hyaluronic acid that plumps and nourishes the skin. The only complaint we have is that it has a fragrance, which some people find very lovely, but those who are ultra-sensitive to fragrance might want to skip this one and opt for something fragrance-free.

This super-rich cream is a great example of an occlusive, which Levine says can soothe and hydrate the skin. “These types of formulas create a protective film that traps moisture into the skin, softening and hydrating it in the process,” she adds. This is a great choice for anyone with combination skin or someone who doesn’t mind being a bit shiny, as the formula can impart a dewy finish. This lightweight, non-comedogenic formula is a must-have for those with oily skin. It doesn’t pill or flake underneath makeup, so it’s great for daytime use, too. On days when we didn't want to wear makeup, but still wanted a gorgeous lit-from-within glow, we found that one pump of Cay Skin Isle Glow Face Moisturizer gave us luminous skin — with the added benefit of SPF 45 sun protection. We were also impressed with how fresh-faced and dewy we looked after every application. We usually need to tone down shine in our T-zone throughout the day, but we thought this moisturizer added just the right amount of glow that looked healthy and non-greasy. That being said, if you like your makeup to be matte or if you struggle with oily skin, this option may exacerbate the issue.

You know you need a moisturiser, but do you know which one is best for your skin? Considering the overwhelming number of options on the shelves, we’d be impressed if you did.
