If you're someone who has dry skin, then you know how uncomfortable it can feel when your skin becomes tight or flaky. It's even more frustrating when you seem to be drinking plenty of water and trying to maintain a healthy balance, but your skin remains thirsty. That's where skin care comes in. Because dryness often leads to the look of fine lines and wrinkles, it's best to find products that specialize in maintaining a strong moisture barrier without feeling heavy or greasy (because that can lead to clogged pores). Ahead, we've highlighted some products to keep your skin happily hydrated.
Fresh Rose Deep Hydration Face Cream
People with dry skin shouldn't live without a gentle yet potent moisturizer, and the Fresh Rose Deep Hydration Face Cream ($45) knows how to deliver. It contains a duo of hyaluronic acids that deeply hydrate; damask rose, which strengthens the skin's barrier; and time-release technology that provides continuous hydration. All in all, you get dewy skin that's plumped with moisture.
Kiehl’s Creamy Eye Treatment With Avocado
A hydrating cream that also brightens and depuffs is always much appreciated, and the Kiehl's Creamy Eye Treatment With Avocado ($54) does just that. It contains a rich emollient texture thanks to a unique oil-in-water formula that feels like a bouncy dream around the delicate eye area. Moreover, it does excellent teamwork with makeup, too.
The Ordinary Hyaluronic Acid 2% + B5 Hydrating Serum
Hyaluronic acid is a must when your skin needs moisture. The Ordinary Hyaluronic Acid 2% + B5 Hydrating Serum ($8) is a lightweight water-based serum that replenishes lost moisture, maintains healthy-looking skin, and is beyond reasonably priced. It's formulated with a blend of hyaluronic acids that make for multidepth hydration.
Clinique Moisture Surge Face Spray Thirsty Skin Relief
A few spritzes of the Clinique Moisture Surge Face Spray Thirsty Skin Relief ($29) will refresh your skin and keep it moisturized throughout the day. This little pick-me-up is powered by a blend of anti-irritants, including chamomile, aloe, sucrose, and caffeine, which together work to help soothe and calm skin. It serves as a moisture boost you'll want to take everywhere.
Indeed Labs Hydraluron Moisture Serum
Triple up on hydration with the Indeed Labs Hydraluron Moisture Serum ($20, originally $25). It penetrates deep beneath the skin's surface to enhance hydration and provide a dewy glow, all while helping to even out skin tone and improve skin texture. What's more, it targets multiple signs of aging and leaves skin feeling smoother, softer, and brighter.
Laura Mercier Pure Canvas Primer Hydrating
Makeup won't go on as smoothly when your skin lacks moisture, but the Laura Mercier Pure Canvas Primer Hydrating ($42) is prepared to give your face a soft-focus effect. Use it as the first step before makeup to extend its wear and improve softness and suppleness. It's infused with microalgae and blurring powders that condition skin over time for a more even-looking complexion.
