Best face moisturizer for every skin type

While all skin types present their own chất lượng set of challenges, combination skin is arguably the most difficult khổng lồ manage. Combination skin means you’ve got both oily và dry spots on different areas of your face, so some products that counteract oiliness and acne (which typically occurs on your T-zone) can further parch preexisting dry spots. But anything too rich will feel heavy on oilier skin & potentially make it even worse. This means folks looking to lớn moisturize combination skin need to find a product with the perfect balance — or, according to half of the six dermatologists we spoke to, multiple products to achieve that balance. “I suggest treating dry areas with an emollient-rich moisturizer, while treating oily areas with a moisturizer that contains acne-fighting ingredients,” explains Dr. Hope Mitchell, the founder of Mitchell Dermatology in Perrysburg, Ohio, who says this will ensure that specific parts of your skin get the treatment they need.

But the other three derms we talked lớn say an all-in-one moisturizer may be a better choice for those who want to lớn keep things simple, and pointed us to a handful that they say can simultaneously treat patches of oily and dry skin without worsening either. Their nine recommended moisturizers below begin with those all-in-one products, for anyone who’d prefer a less-is-more approach. Beneath them, we’ve also included a handful of moisturizers the experts specifically recommend for treating dry patches, & then a handful more they say are good for treating oily spots, for those who’d rather mix and match.

Longtime Strategist readers will know this is one of our best-selling products. It has been recommended for almost every skin-care concern: oily, dry, mature, sunburnt, acne-prone — & now, combination. Dr. Corey L. Hartman, the founder of Skin Wellness Dermatology in Birmingham, Alabama, says this moisturizer is “a hard-to-beat cult favorite for its accessibility and price point.” Dr. Caroline Robinson, the CEO & founder of Tone Dermatology, explains that its “lightweight yet hydrating” formula contains “hyaluronic acid and glycerin to attract water to the skin throughout its layers,” while Dr. Ope Ofodile, a co-owner of Dermatology và Surgery Specialists of North Atlanta, notes it’s oil-free, so it won’t affect any oilier patches. For these reasons, Ofodile says it’s great on its own for combination skin. But she notes that, due to its oil-free nature, it can also be used with another moisturizer made lớn treat oily skin.
