10 Products for Levelling Up your Skin’s Hydration This Season
Is your skin craving moisture due to the cooler weather? Try these seasonal saviours.
by : Mariève Inoue- Oct 4th, 2022
The cold is settling in, the wind is getting brisker, and you’ve likely even started turning up the heat in your home: fall really is here. This usually means your skin could do with some extra moisture. Oblige by switching out your lightweight summer moisturizer for a thicker, emollient-rich formula that helps keep your moisture barrier healthy and encourages your skin to hold on to its hydration. Other ways of amping up your skincare routine this season: adding a hydrating essence, serum, mist, or mask with ingredients like glycerine, hyaluronic acid, ceramides, or squalane. We’ve rounded up 10 products for taking extra good care of your skin this fall.
Queen Essence, Omorovicza
Combining ingredients like snow mushroom, tomato stem cells and hyaluronic acid, this silky, slippery essence is applied right after cleansing, and absorbs almost instantly into your skin. The result: unparalleled, long-lasting hydration. It’s such a treat to use every morning and evening!
Price: $132
Rosewater Serum, Heritage Store
Pleasantly fluid upon application, this serum, which contains 1% hyaluronic acid as well as damask rosewater, seduced us as much thanks to its effectiveness, as its gentle, floral scent and accessible price.
Price: $30
Ultimune Power Infusing Concentrate Serum, Shiseido
Designed to hydrate the skin while improving its ability to retain moisture, increasing its luminosity, and enhancing the efficaciousness of your other products, this concentrate is a must for any skincare routine. Its exquisite gel-like texture and energizing scent are simply icing on the cake.
Price:$185
Mask-imum Revival Hydra-Plumping Mask, Naturally Serious
Applying this mask, which blends colloidal oatmeal, hyaluronic acid and shea butter, feels like wrapping your skin in a thick, cozy blanket. And it leaves your face feeling so much more comfortable and hydrated after removing it.
Price: $32
Fat Water Hydrating Milky Toner Essence, Fenty Skin
Its light, floral and fruity scent is what drew us in, but the effect of this new milky toner essence on our skin is undeniable: tamarind, hyaluronic acid, niacinamide and vitamin E (among other ingredients) keep it hydrated and protected.
Price: $42
Tolerance HYDRA-10 Hydrating Cream, Avène
Designed for sensitive skin, this new hydrating cream—which is rich in hyaluronic acid, Avène thermal water, glycerine and shea butter—literally melts into your skin, instantly quenching it upon application. A must try, no matter your skin type!
Price: $39
Crème fraiche de beauté 3-in-1 Cream, Nuxe
This innovative cream, whose name, fragrance and texture recall a beloved creamy summer delight, is a makeup remover, moisturizing cream and plumping mask all in one. It’s perfect for restoring your skin’s hydration all fall and winter long thanks to its formula, which boasts sweet almond plant milk and oil.
Price:$49
Luminous Dewy Skin Mist, Tatcha
Considering how much we loved Tatcha’s The Dewy Skin Cream, it’s no surprise that we thoroughly enjoyed this fine mist from the same collection. It can be spritzed onto the skin multiple times a day for a hit of hydration provided by a blend of vegetable oils and humectants, including a complex of Okinawa red algae and hyaluronic acid.
Price:$62
Boum-Boum Milk, Violette_FR
This innovative spray replaces your toner, serum, and moisturizer with a single, fun-to-use product. It sinks into the skin quicker than you can say “Boum-Boum” and adds a hit of moisture instantaneously, all while providing a soothing effect. We’re head over heels for this one-and-done product, which can even be used on your hair and body.
Price: $87
Intensive Mineral Serum, Céla
This serum feels cooling and absorbs lightning fast, leaving your complexion looking and feeling radiant. Rich in glacial mineral water, it also contains vitamin C, chaga mushroom and red maple bark, which helps hydrate and soften your skin. We love!
