The Moisturizers I'm Currently Using

"As the weather changes and my skin's condition shifts, I regularly rotate my moisturizers" — which is why I always have more than one open at a time. In warmer months I lean toward gel moisturizers, while in winter I reach for richer creams.

My Recommendations

Clinique – Dramatically Different Hydrating Jelly + ACC Pores & Uneven Texture A water-based, lightweight jelly moisturizer that absorbs quickly without leaving a sticky feeling. It can be personalized by adding active concentrate cartridges. Perfect for my combination, blackhead-prone skin.

Clinique – Superdefense Broad Spectrum SPF 25 A richer cream moisturizer with SPF 25 protection. Pleasant scent, oil-free formula — non-irritating and layers easily with other products.

Kiehl's – Super Multi-Corrective Cream An anti-aging face cream that reduces the appearance of fine lines. Richer in texture, more suited for drier skin types.

Clarins – Re-Boost Refreshing Hydrating Cream A lightweight, refreshing cream. Ideal for summer months — it worked brilliantly in Mexico, though it doesn't quite provide enough hydration for me right now.

Lancôme – Rénergie Nuit Multi-Glow Night Cream An intensive, anti-wrinkle night cream. "Very pleasant scent, absorbs instantly and feels slightly richer in texture" — one of my all-time favorites.

Himalaya – Herbals Intensive Moisturizing Cream A cream containing wheat germ oil and vitamin E. Ideal for dry, cracked skin — it hydrates instantly and relieves tightness.
