Moisturizing your skin daily is as essential as brushing your teeth. And just like your choice of tooth paste, your moisturizer should be as effective and reflective of your personal skin needs. Every skin type requires different attention, so knowing what moisturizer best suits you is the key to keeping your skin and make up looking fresh and any pesky lines in check. Here is a quick guide to some of my favorite moisturizers for both dry and oily skin types that won't dry out your bank account.
Dry Skin:
This triple threat moisturizer exfoliates, hydrates and protects the skin. Your skin will be deeply hydrated while this moisturizer also works to even out your complexion and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
Great for dry skin, Yonka PampleMousse is a luxurious facial moisturizer that both moisturizes the skin and leaves it super soft.
Combination Skin:
bareMinerals Advanced Protection SPF 20 Moisturizer
Thanks to my own combination skin, I am no stranger to hunting down the best moisturizers to appease my seemingly dual personality skin type. I have been using bareMinerals Advanced Protection SPF 20 Moisturizers for over a year and love it. Thanks to its ActiveSoil Complex, this moisturizer protects against environmental skin damage and keeps your skin smooth as a baby's bottom.
Oily Skin:
If you've ever had the pleasure of using Eucerin for any dry skin needs, then it should come as no surprise that Eucerin is the go-to drug store facial moisturizer. Thanks to Eucerin's SPF 30 and highly moisturizing agents, your skin will stay burn-free and hydrated.
Murad Oil-Control Mattifier SPF 15
For the super oily types, especially teens, check out Murad's Oil-Control Mattifier with SPF 15. It controls oil for up to 8 hours as well as reduces break outs. Reduces break outs and balaces oil production? Does it get any better than that?
