Skin feeling tight, flaky and dehydrated? No matter the season, the number of steps you follow in your skincare regime or environmental factors like humidity, dry skin can (and will) prevail. Yes, even in summer. This is why finding the right moisturiser is so important.
Products with ingredients that benefit your skin type can bring a radiant glow to your complexion, no matter how thirsty it is. Emollients and humectants, like hyaluronic acid and ceramides, are great at keeping your skin protected and hydrated, while nutrient-rich ingredients like rosehip oil can give your complexion a plump, healthy-looking appearance.
