Facial creams for dry skin

Dry skin lacks oil, and dehydrated skin lacks water. Many people have both. The creams here address each by combining humectants like hyaluronic acid with the occlusive and lipid ingredients that slow water loss and restore softness to tight, flaky skin.

Editor's picks

SkinCeuticals Emollience is a rich moisturizer built for dry, depleted skin. Obagi Hydrate Luxe delivers overnight nourishment with shea butter and peptides, and Epicutis Hyvia Creme calms dryness that comes with redness. For barrier repair, Obagi Rebalance Skin Barrier Recovery Cream replenishes ceramides.

How to get the most from a rich cream

Apply to slightly damp skin to trap surface moisture, and layer a hydrating serum underneath for a bigger reservoir of water. In dry months, a heavier night cream helps prevent the tightness that leads to flaking.
