Top Rated Moisturizers For Seriously Dehydrated Fall Skin

Top Rated Moisturizers For Seriously Dehydrated Fall Skin

by Lydia Bell

Temperatures are dropping, we’re preparing for the holiday season ahead, and our skin is feeling…well, a little cold, dry, and itchy to be honest. Sometimes it seems like no matter how many creams we slather on, they just disappear in the chilly air, and we’re left with the same tight-feeling skin. Ugh!

Luckily for us, many brands have invested serious technology in formulating moisturizers meant for dry, cold weather and ultra-dehydrated skin! The trick is not just to assume any thick cream will work - look for specific ingredients geared towards deeper penetration of the skin’s surface to restore moisture and suppleness. 

Read on for our top picks for the cold season ahead!

 

  1. Alastin Ultra Nourishing Moisturizer

The Ultra Nourishing Moisturiser absorbs quickly and effortlessly into the skin, leaving it feeling supple and non-greasy. It absorbs quickly and serves as an excellent foundation for makeup, ensuring your skin stays smooth and soft all day long.
