The Best Moisturisers For Dry Skin

Got dry skin? Then you should know that moisture is your best friend. When dealing with dry skin and crafting the perfect skincare routine, it’s important to pick a moisturiser with a thicker consistency made from nourishing ingredients– to create a seal over the skin that prevents moisture from escaping. If you have dry skin and regularly experience symptoms like flakiness, irritation, rough patches, and a tight sensation after cleansing, then 1) don’t panic and 2) check out our top moisturiser picks below.
