Hello all! I'm looking for some moisturizer or ingredients to look out for. My skin is normal and can get dry depending on the climate. I travel a lot, but at the moment staying in Spain the most. With winter coming soon, my skin will definitely go to a drier spectrum. I might have taken some sun damage too from the intense spanish summer 😅 I usually use 1 moisturizer for both AM and PM but open to branch out and get a 2nd moisturizer for PM routine.

I've been told to look for creams with ceramides and I will tag some of moisturizers I've been keeping my eyes on. Ideally, these moisturizers can also work during warmer season. I wear sunscreen after moisturizer during the day. I'm open to more suggestion! Talk me into trying your faves or holy grails 😁

AM & PM Moisturizer Suggestion

Unfortunately, this is too light. Perhaps, it's the climate where I live in plus the super dry, hot summer (Spain). It soothes and hydrates for a few hours then my skin gets back to its drier state. 

Gel-like texture and consistency has always been my favorite. It's a very light moisturizer, suitable for sensitive and oily skin. It feels good to be applied to the skin and absorbed very quickly.

Alcohol might react with people's skin. The finish and feel of the sunscreen might not be for everybody. 

Lightweight and gives me that healthy looking finish. I have medium light skin so I can't say much about white cast. Price is pretty okay. 

Fragrance, won't recommend it to people who are sensitive to fragrances or someone who is fussy with it. 

This moisturizer SAVES my skin, there was an era when I moved across the world and my skin got so bad from the sudden changes + different routine. Been buying this 2 times now. The key of healthy skin is to moisturize and this does it job perfectly on moisturizing the skin. Just only a few days of usage, my skin went from super dull and sad to a revitalized skin. I love the texture of the moisturizer, very lightweight and easily absorbed. I like how it smells to be honest. 

Too thick for my skin type but will serve well for drier skin type as mentioned above, the fragrance might be too heavy for some, not that I dislike it but it will be better if it's lighter and more subtle. 

Hydrating, quite thick, and work as a great primer. My intention of getting this product is to use it as a primer anyway. It keeps my make-up in place and helps on hydrating the under eyes area before make-up application. I can see this product to be a great moisturizer for someone with dry to super dry skin. It has a scent, some sort of orange blossom floral like. They have different sizes in store last I checked and different prices. Quite an affordable product. 

Like mentioned above, 10% is a pretty high concentration of Niancinamide and it won't be suitable for everyone. It can cause irritation, heavy purging or breakout on some people. 

It's a pretty strong Niacinamide serum, it helps clearing, brightening, and balancing my skin. I picked up this serum when my face was a mess, this combined with proper cleansing and good moisturizer helped on bringing my skin to what it is today.
