Top 5 Customer Rated Moisturisers For Autumn

As the colder months begin to settle and the nation swaps sunburn (remember to use your SPF every day to keep your skin protected) for wind burn, our customers have been adding those richer formulas to their baskets in a bid to quench their thirsty skin.

When it comes to autumn skincare, we naturally begin to turn to the thicker, more nourishing creams that leave our skin feeling deeply hydrated and comforted. During the warmer months, there tends to be more moisture in the air that hydrates our skin without us realising, but in the autumn and winter, the humidity declines and we're left with dry air instead. Thanks to this colder, dry air outside, we begin to lose more moisture through our skin - a process that's called transepidermal water loss. 

We've pulled together our customer's top five moisturisers (in no particular order) for autumn to help you alleviate the effects of dry, dehydrated skin. We think you'll love their selection! 

1.BIOEFFECT Power Cream

Formulated with plant actives to visibly improve the firmness and elasticity of your skin, this unique moisturiser will help you to reveal a smoother skin texture.

Helping to diminish the visible signs of ageing, Power Cream is a highly advanced formula that's deeply nourishing. 

Infused with hyaluronic acid, shea butter and niacinamide, it helps to boost radiance, improve firmness, and help reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles for healthy, luminous skin, too.

Highly effective when used on its own, or on top of your favorite BIOEFFECT serums for added hydration, nourishment, and efficacy. With regular use, your skin will be left looking and feeling smoother, more even, and beautifully radiant.

"I am 76 years old and I have recently started using this cream...it certainly suits my dry skin and it does seem to have improved it..." - Yvonne, Face The Future customer

2. Vichy Neovadiol Perimenopause Plumping Day Cream For Dry Skin

If you're experiencing perimenopausal skin, this intensely hydrating and nourishing cream will help your skin to feel comforted and cared for. 

Enhancing your skin's elasticity and volume along with improving the texture and tone, your optimal levels of hydration will be restored. 

With a formula that includes hyaluronic acid, proxylane, and cassia seed extract, the rich cream lifts, firms, and plumps the skin, smooths fine lines and wrinkles, improves skin texture and tone, defines the skin contours, and restores radiance to the complexion.

3. Decléor White Magnolia Anti-Ageing Cream Absolute

Plumping and firming, this non-greasy, non-sticky cream re-energises your skin helping to plump and firm. 

Formulated with magnolia essential oil, peony extracts, and ginger, the moisturiser helps to redefine your facial contours, and leaves your complexion looking radiant for a healthy, youthful glow. 

4. Perricone MD Cold Plasma Plus+ The Intensive Hydrating Complex

This multi-tasking moisturiser treats dryness, dullness, and uneven skin tone, along with improving the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. With a balm-like texture, your skin will be rejuvenated and healthier.

Made with vitamin C ester, which is more stable and less irritating than traditional vitamin C, the complex brightens, smooths and reduces pigmentation. The addition of squalene nourishes, hydrates, and helps to smooth away fine lines. Peptides firm and thicken the skin, and the vegetable triglyceride complex hydrates, softens, and smooths whilst supporting the skin's barrier function.

5. SkinCeuticals Triple Lipid Restore 2:4:2

Firm, plump and smooth with this potent daily hydrating cream.

Helping to restore the surface lipids and reinforce your skin's barrier, the cream supports your skin's natural processes, helping to firm ageing, sagging skin.

With a maximised concentration of 2% pure ceramides, 4% naturally occurring cholesterol and 2% omega fatty acids, the cream works to boost your skin's hydration levels. Embrace a fuller, firmer facial contour with a radiant appearance.
