FACE MOISTURIZERS & CREAMS

A face moisturizer is a skincare product specifically formulated to hydrate and nourish the skin. It typically contains ingredients like humectants and emollients to help replenish moisture and support the skin’s barrier. A face moisturizer is an essential and daily part of a comprehensive skincare routine.

Your face moisturizer should be used every day, twice a day, morning, and night. It’s usually one of the last steps in your skincare routine—after cleansing, toning, and applying a serum or treatment products. It helps to lock in moisture and keep the skin hydrated throughout the day or night. It’s important to choose a moisturizer that’s right for your skin type, too. For example, if you have sensitive skin, you may want to choose a moisturizer that not only soothes and calms the look of skin, but also helps support a resilient skin barrier, like Mega-Mushroom Fortifying Emulsion.

Our favorite moisturizer for dry skin is GinZing™ Ultra Hydrating Energy-Boosting Cream. It’s a super-rich face cream—with Caffeine from Coffee Beans and Niacinamide—that helps wake up the look of skin with instant radiance and 72-hour hydration. Another best moisturizer for dry skin, especially if you’re concerned about fine lines and wrinkles, is Plantscription™ Lifting + Firming Cream. With Hyaluronic Acid, Anogeissus, and Peptides, it helps deliver age-correcting hydration.

Our go-to moisturizer for oily skin is GinZing™ Energizing Gel Cream. Energizing Gel Cream has a quick-absorbing gel texture that's great for oily skin types. It features Niacinamide to help support the skin’s barrier and Vitamin C to help boost radiance for refreshed radiant, glowing skin.
