Cooler temperatures can leave your skin feeling worse for wear as natural oil production slows, making your skin uncomfortably dry and tight. While thicker layers of moisturiser might seem like the best plan of action, choosing nourishing products with the right ingredients (read: hyaluronic acid, glycerin and niacinamide) is key. Here are eight replenishing skincare picks formulated to beat the dreaded winter dryness.

With a pudding-like texture and buttery ingredient list that guarantees perfectly moisturised skin, Rare Beauty’s newest launch, Find Comfort Bouncy Body Cream, is the go-to for dehydrated skin during the winter months.
