During the winter, my normally moisturized, bright-looking complexion takes on a life of its own and becomes much drier and duller. It truly is depressing. But I chose to do something about it rather than just moping around feeling sorry for myself. This activity, in this instance, translated into sampling almost every rich moisturizer that landed on my desk, including some that I found after a 3 a.m. panicked Google search for the “best winter moisturizers for dry skin”. Along with that, I gathered a ton of suggestions from my Byrdie editors.
The best winter moisturizers provide dry skin with an optimal level of hydration along with anti-aging and other preventive qualities. I can attest to the fact that they do more than any other product on the market to brighten, nourish, soothe, plump, and hydrate my skin. Here are my top picks along with an explanation of why I think they work.
1. Cream rich in nutrients
Augustinus Bader
Bader, a professor known as the “Stem Cell Whisperer” for his expertise in stem cells, launched this new skin care product to raise money for himself.
2. Moisturizing Gel
Biossance Squalane + Probiotic
It is one of the greatest brands for moisturizing dry skin because it is cruelty-free, made from sustainable materials, and has clinical backing.
3. Miracle cream
Charlotte Tilbury
Moisturizing and anti-aging properties come first. Contains hyaluronic acid, vitamin E, peptides, rosehip and camellia oils, to encourage the formation of collagen in your skin naturally, giving it a softer, less wrinkled appearance.
4. Water gel
Neutrogena Hydro Boost
The moisturizer makes my skin look even better. It’s super light and airy, like a cross between a gel and a cloud cream, and is infused with hyaluronic acid.
