Moisturising smart this season

You and me; we’re doing it right this time. No more half-hearted slaps of cream and hoping for the best. This season, we’re talking proper moisturising. Think of it as your pre-game before your face makes its grand entrance into the world. Your moisturiser should be your beauty armour, helping you fend off that dreaded winter dryness.

So, what’s worth your time (and coin)? You want moisturisers that actually work with ingredients that aren’t just trendy but clever. Take Lamelle Serra Restore Cream. Dr Bradley Wagemaker, founder of Lamelle Research Laboratories, says it mimics the lipids in your skin’s bilayer, including their unique ceramide, Ceramide-P. Translation? It helps repair your skin barrier, so you’re not just adding hydration, you’re locking it in. No more moisture vanishing acts five minutes after you apply it.

Another gem I’ve fallen for is the Nivea Rose Care Moisturising Gel Cream. It keeps skin hydrated for a full 24 hours (yes, a whole day!). Packed with rose water and a hit of hyaluronic acid, it leaves skin fresh, soft, and smooth. And if I’m feeling fancy, I spritz a little of their rose water over my face for that extra dewy boost.

Then there’s the Neutrogena Hydro Boost Water Gel, a winter skincare hero. Its water-binding ingredients lock in moisture like a pro, banishing dry, tight skin and leaving you with that fresh, plump, dewy glow we’re all after. Glow goals? Achieved.

So, go on! Catch that glow! Up your moisturising game by doing it daily, morning and night. Let your skin drink it all in and enjoy everything winter has to offer, minus the flaky, parched face.
