Toleriane Double Repair Moisturizer

Product Information

We tested 64 face moisturizers for dry and oily skin. But some lost points in one or more key categories, so they didn’t earn a spot among our favorites. These five didn’t make the final cut, but there were things we liked about them: Since the moisturizer is oil-free, Galaria says it’s particularly great for oily skin. And, while testing, we felt the same way: The moisturizer reduced oil while making our skin feel smoother and more hydrated. It also proved as lightweight and fast-absorbing as our overall favorite. According to Neutrogena, the moisturizer can aggressively dry out your skin when you start using it. And while we didn’t have this problem while testing, we think it’s worth noting—especially if you have dry or sensitive skin. While chemical sunscreen ingredients won’t leave a white cast, we don’t recommend these types of sunscreens due to research that has shown they absorb through the skin and into the bloodstream. It’s still unclear if these chemicals are linked to health conditions, but it’s known that they do enter the body. In our opinion, mineral sunscreens are a safer choice. Drunk Elephant’s Lala Retro Whipped Cream left our skin 9 to 23 percent more hydrated than at the start of our test. But because the cream was so heavy and greasy, we had to wait a while to see results—and for the price, we’d rather buy something else.

The formula also features lipohydroxy acid, a derivative of salicylic acid with skin-renewing, exfoliating, and acne-treating properties. Moisturizers typically contain three kinds of ingredients: humectants, occlusives, and emollients. Humectants (like hyaluronic acid) attract water and hydrate your skin. Occlusives (like beeswax) form a protective layer that seals in moisture. And emollients (like vitamin E) smooth out and support your skin. Great moisturizers contain a combination of these ingredients, King says. And you can find non-comedogenic versions of each. If you have dry, sensitive skin, you’ve likely been told to try moisturizers by CeraVe and Cetaphil , or even Bag Balm and Egyptian Magic . But have you tried La Roche Posay moisturizers? Recommended by tens of thousands of dermatologists across the globe, La Roche Posay has become known for delivering highly effective skincare solutions that target a variety of skin concerns, even allergy-prone, ultra-sensitive skin.

Even though most La Roche Posay moisturizers are formulated for those with sensitive skin, keep in mind that some products contain fragrance, which has the potential to cause skin sensitivity reactions. What Are The Top 10 Best La Roche Posay Moisturizers? Another plus: this La Roche Posay moisturizer is accepted by the National Eczema Association, making it an excellent option to alleviate the symptoms of eczema.

La Roche-Posay Toleriane Double Repair UV Face Moisturizer

As Galaria noted, oil-free moisturizers are great for oily skin—and Tatcha’s The Water Cream is no exception. But the lightweight moisturizer takes things a step further: One of its key ingredients, leopard lily, actually reduces the amount of oil in your skin. Humectants are ingredients that pull moisture into the skin, like hyaluronic acid, glycerin, aloe, and lactic acid. For the price, we wish the 1.69-ounce tub contained more cream. (Even when we first opened it, it didn’t look very full.) But we still think the moisturizer is worth the investment, especially if you want something truly natural. La Roche Posay offers several retinol products, including moisturizers like Redermic R Pure Retinol Cream and Redermic R Retinol Eye Cream. According to Fenty, you should reapply this moisturizer every two hours for optimal results and sun protection—just like regular sunscreen. We love how hydrating the moisturizer felt the first time we applied it, and we think it’s a great option for everyday use, especially if you like exercising outdoors.

We love that the formula includes the mineral sunscreen titanium dioxide, which provides broad spectrum SPF 50 protection. And you don’t have to worry about a white cast since the formula is tinted with iron oxides. Am I blind, does a UK version exist? Alternatively, any cream by any other brand (not lotion) that is fragrance free and combines ceramides and niacinamide that you are aware of? La Roche Posay is committed to making dermatological skincare accessible to those who need it and offers consumers products for each step of their skincare routine. Neurosensine, also known as acetyl dipeptide-1 cetyl ester, is the hero ingredient in this formula, helping to instantly soothe skin. It’s a dipeptide that works by signalling the skin nerve cells to release met-enkephalin (a relaxing, pain-relieving messenger molecule). I have combination sensitive skin, which means that it’s dry in some parts, oily in others, and at times can react to skincare products if they are too strong or have a lot of fragrance. I take my skincare routine pretty seriously, so I am always focusing on anti-aging, hydration, and texture to name a few. I use 2-3 products in the morning and night, and I’m never found without sunscreen. Some brands of skincare that I consistently use are Skinceuticals, Biologique Recherche, and Alastin. How To Apply: Pat and massage onto face
