FIND THE BEST MOISTURISER FOR YOUR SKIN TYPE
WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF USING A FACE MOISTURISER?
There are plenty of benefits to slapping on a bit of moisturiser besides it feeling like a luxurious little treat in the morning (and evening). For one, using a moisturiser hydrates your skin, locking in moisture and helping to protect your skin’s natural moisture barrier. It helps to keep your skin smooth and supple, and helps to protect it against daily environmental aggressors.
COMPARE MOISTURISERS BY SKIN TYPE
Find your perfect moisturiser, tailored to your skin type, for a match made in complexion heaven. Normal to dry skin types crave moisture and hydration, while oily to combination skin prefers something a little more lightweight in texture

Never forget the SPF!
No matter your routine, the final step should always be a moisturiser with SPF.

HOW AND WHEN TO APPLY MOISTURISER
The best time to apply moisturiser is in the morning and in the evening. Whether you’re a skincare devotee or a fuss-free slap-on-and-go sort of person, your best daily moisturiser is likely the bathroom product that needs no introduction. Yes, it might be a little thing in your day, but it’s widely considered fundamental to all skincare routines. Need to touch base on which order to place product on your face? Read our guide to building a skincare routine.
So, this is why a daily dab of moisture on your face is so important. There’s a whole host of things out there that can sabotage supple skin – from the elements to the season – not to mention personal factors like age and skin type. But our face creams are formulated with ingredients that help to tackle your skin concerns, like our Vitamin E range enriched with hyaluronic acid, our Vitamin C range enriched with vitamin C, our Aloe range with aloe vera, and our Edelweiss range with edelweiss.
Simply massage on a dollop of your chosen moisturiser, morning or night, to leave your skin feeling smoother and nourished with hydration. And in the morning, always follow up with a protective moisturiser with SPF to ensure that your skin stays safe throughout the day.
