A moisturiser is a moisturiser is a moisturiser, right? Wrong! Different skin types require different levels of hydration. What works for a person with oily skin might not work for a person with dry skin, and vice versa. And as a formerly oily skinned girl who's gone all dry, no one knows this better than me! Oh, the amount of money I spent on unsuitable moisturisers when I was none the wiser could've funded a really fancy dinner out, followed by a hotel stay. Possibly even a good brunch at a nice cafe the next day.
So what are the ten Top Rated moisturisers that dry skinned Beauty Review members love? Read on...
1. Kiehl's Ultra Facial Cream
RATED: 4.8/5!
Beauty Review Member Mangoapple says: Light but super hydrating moisturiser and great for sensitive skin. Great that it’s fragrance free and affordable too.
2. Kiehl's Super Multi-Corrective Cream
RATED: 4.7/5!
Beauty Review Member Iris says: I definitely have noticed improvments since using this cream, especially around my eye area and forehead where wrinkles are looking much less wrinkly! I've been using this for about 3 weeks and haven't experienced dry skin since the first use, it's so hydrating!
3. L'Oreal Paris Age Perfect Intense Nutrition Night
RATED: 4.6/5!
Beauty Review Member Judith says: After applying I found my skin was much softer and more supple in the morning - something that I haven't felt for a while, which was a huge bonus. In the morning my skin felt hydrated and much softer.
4. Trilogy Ultra Hydrating Face Cream
RATED: 4.6/5
Beauty Review Member Indigo says: I love this moisturiser. I have very dry skin but find a lot of products for dry skin feel thick and greasy. This doesn’t. My skin absorbs it nicely leaving a good base for foundation.
5. Dr LeWinn's Recoverëderm Cellular Defence Rich Replenishing Day Cream
RATED: 4.6/5
Beauty Review Member lizzien7 says: I really loved this cream- especially the texture, it feels super rich & moisturising without the oily/greasy feel you sometimes get from other ultra hydrating day & night creams.
6. Clinique Moisture Surge Extended Thirst Relief
RATED: 4.6/5
Beauty Review Member jessmunn says: I love this product! The consistency is a cross between a gel and a moisturizer. It’s hydrating, makes my skin feel smooth and is a perfect base layer for my makeup.
7. kōtia Hydrating Day Cream SPF15
RATED: 4.5/5
Beauty Review Member ruzanforrest says: It is thick and creamy but sinks into the skin beautifully and absorbs well. It makes skin so nicely glowy and soft.
8. La Roche-Posay® Toleriane Ultra
RATED: 4.5/5
Beauty Review Member Kellyleanne says: I have nearly tried the whole range now and this moisturiser is hydrating and moistursing. It is so creamy and gives hydration to my skin which can be dry and reactive.
9. Skinfood Nourishing Moisturiser
RATED: 4.4/5
Beauty Review Member lanaluu_24 says: I use this every day in the winter to protect my skin from the bite of a cold morning - works a treat and is absorbed very quickly with long lasting moisture.
10. Trilogy Age Proof Replenishing Night Cream
RATED: 4.3/5
Beauty Review Member clarksnelson says: The lotion itself is rich and creamy, but goes on smoothly and 'sinks' into the skin effortlessly. It never felt greasy, and when I woke in the morning, my skin still felt hydrated.
I have dry skin and my favourite moisturiser is Tatcha's Water Cream! It's so hydrating and make my skin so smooth. I also really enjoyed the Khiel's Super Multi Corrective Cream. I really want to try the Tatcha Indigo Cream next!
