18 Drugstore Facial Moisturizers Your Skin Will Love

Every editorial product is independently selected by our editors. If you buy something through our links, we may earn commission.

Whether your skin care regimen fills an entire medicine cabinet with steps one through 23 or it's practically nonexistent, there is one product that just about everyone on Planet Earth can get behind — a daily facial moisturizer.

We challenge you to find a face that hasn't benefited from a little extra hydration every now and then . . . or every day, twice a day, if that's more your style. And you don't need a lavish face cream with a mini marble spatula to get the job done, either!

Ahead, you'll find the face lotions, creams, and serums that will pump your face with moisture. The best part about these products is that they're all available at your local drugstore.

Read on to see our picks for best drugstore moisturizers that even Ms. Fancy Pants can slather on with a smile.

Neutrogena Oil-Free Acne Moisturizer Pink Grapefruit

The Neutrogena Oil-Free Acne Moisturizer Pink Grapefruit ($7) boasts the same refreshing citrus scent you fell in love with from the brand's coveted acne cleanser. The creamy formula is spiked with salicylic acid so you can fight breakouts all day long.

Cetaphil DermaControl Oil Control Moisturizer

Cetaphil DermaControl Oil Control Moisturizer SPF 30's ($19) skin-softening SPF-infused formula works overtime keeping oily skin from greasing up. It contains a cocktail of sebum fighters like silica (to absorb), zinc (to regulate oil production), and polymethyl methacrylate, which curbs that dreaded midday shine.

Aveeno Positively Radiant Daily Moisturizer

Aveeno Positively Radiant Daily Moisturizer

The Aveeno Positively Radiant Daily Moisturizer SPF 30 ($15) is a fan favorite for good reason. The ultra-lightweight formula absorbs in seconds, leaving skin hydrated, protected (thank you, SPF 30!), and with a subtle, glowy finish.

L'Oréal Paris Revitalift Triple Power Day Lotion SPF 30

L'Oréal Paris Revitalift Triple Power Day Lotion SPF 30

If there is an overachiever in this bunch, the do-it-all L'Oréal Paris Revitalift Triple Power Day Lotion SPF 20 ($16) is it. Sure, it hydrates, like any good moisturizer should, but it also contains powerful antiagers (like the brand's patented Pro-Xylane, derived from the beech wood plant) that even skin tone and smooth fine lines and wrinkles.

Avène Hydrance Optimale Rich Cream

Avène Hydrance Optimale Rich Cream

Don't let the name fool you — the only thing rich about the Avène Hydrance Optimale Rich Cream ($35) is its hydration benefits. Otherwise, it's light like meringue and contains the brand's signature thermal spring water for extra skin soothing and softening.

CeraVe AM Facial Moisturizing Lotion

CeraVe AM Facial Moisturizing Lotion

The packaging may look simple, but CeraVe AM Facial Moisturizing Lotion ($18) is anything but. The brand's Multi-Vesicular Emulsion technology somehow manages to control the release of ingredients over time, so the lotion moisturizes and protects skin all day long without an ounce of heaviness.

Eucerin Daily Protection Moisturizing Face Lotion

Eucerin Daily Protection Moisturizing Face Lotion

The fragrance-free Eucerin Daily Protection Moisturizing Face Lotion ($8) makes it an ideal pick for sensitive skin types, and the fast-absorbing, ultrahydrating (but not at all tacky-feeling) texture makes it great for just about everyone else.

Nivea Soft Cream

Nivea Soft Cream

Its name practically says it all. The whipped formula of the Nivea Soft Cream ($7) is packed with a healthy dose of vitamin E and jojoba oil that hydrates, smooths, and softens the heck out of skin that needs it the most.

Yes to Coconuts Ultra Hydrating Soufflé Moisturizer

Yes to Coconuts Ultra Hydrating Soufflé Moisturizer

The soft, fluffy texture of the Yes to Coconuts Ultra Hydrating Soufflé Moisturizer ($12) is reason enough to want to grab for this cream. The subtly sweet coconut scent and megahydrating benefits are just the icing on the cake. It's richer than most, so oily skin types may want to save for nighttime.

Embryolisse Lait Cream Concentrate

Embryolisse Lait Cream Concentrate

If you're looking for a lightweight moisturizer that won't interfere with your makeup, the paraben-free formula of the Embryolisse Lait Cream Concentrate ($16) does exactly that. You'll be blown away by how smooth and flawless your foundation goes on. It even manages to give skin that lit-from-within glow that we so desperately try to achieve.

Dove DermaSeries Fragrance-Free Face Cream With SPF15

Dove DermaSeries Fragrance-Free Face Cream With SPF15

Dove DermaSeries Fragrance-Free Face Cream With SPF 15 ($9) is fast-absorbing yet still emollient enough for even the most dehydrated skin. The best part: it's hypoallergenic and gentle enough for the most reactive skin.

Honest Purely Simple Hypoallergenic Face and Body Lotion

Jessica Alba left fragrance out of her Honest Purely Simple Hypoallergenic Face and Body Lotion ($7) and added in hydrating olive, shea, jojoba and safflower oils. You'll stay moisturized without feeling greasy thanks to how fast the formula absorbs into skin.
