The cosmetics industry offers a huge number of skin care products. Buying a new product can be a real challenge. The advertisement of each cream claims that only it can solve the problems of customers. Therefore, when purchasing any skin care product, you must first of all collect enough reliable first-hand information about it. Below are reviews of a cream for dry skin.
What components should be included in a cream for dry skin?
The composition should contain the following components:
- herbal and plant extracts;
- healing oils;
- hyaluronic acid;
- vitamins and microelements;
- collagen and elastin.
These components should not be present in the composition:
- glycerin or mineral oil, especially at the top of the list;
- paraffin;
- lanolin;
- silicones;
- fragrances, dyes and preservatives.
Before purchasing, you should carefully read the composition. It’s even better to first read reviews about a specific product.
Recommendations from cosmetologists on choosing products
What does cosmetologist A.I. Petrova, Moscow, recommend:
“A moisturizer, especially for dry skin types, should not contain large amounts of glycerin or mineral oil. These components, with prolonged use, will dry out the skin even more. I would advise you to pay attention to products containing hyaluronic acid and natural oils. Vitamins and microelements in the composition of the care product will make it even more effective. They will help fight not only dryness, but also premature aging.”

Below are ratings of regular and drugstore moisturizers. They are most popular among consumers.
Cream-oil for face “Luxury nutrition” from L'Oreal
Intensively nourishes the skin, erasing signs of fatigue and eliminating the effects of dehydration. Contains valuable essential oils that fight the effects of free radicals and promote long-lasting hydration of the facial skin. It is used both morning and evening on previously cleansed facial skin.
Marina, Perm: “I have already smeared more than one jar of this cream, and I can say with confidence that it is the best in its niche. Perfectly nourishes and moisturizes. There is no feeling of stickiness or grease after using it. The face is smooth and moisturized even in the cold season. During the entire period of use, no allergic reactions occurred. So I recommend this product!”
Svetlana, Saratov: “This cream is my salvation in the cold season. The skin feels great with it, there is no redness or peeling. The pores remain clean and the product does not cause inflammation. The only drawback for me is that it cannot be used in the warm season; the cream becomes too nutritious for me. So, as a winter treatment, yes, but for the summer I advise you to choose a lighter texture.”
Facial cream with calendula Weleda
Designed for facial skin that is prone to redness and flaking. Calendula supports the protective functions of the skin. Almond oil moisturizes and protects against drying out. The cream can be used by adults and children.
Natalia, Kazan: “Our whole family uses it, it is an excellent product for caring for delicate skin. I personally use it all year round, only if the summer is too hot, then I choose something lighter. It has a pleasant calendula aroma and a delicate pliable texture. I like that it does not contain aggressive chemicals or preservatives. I highly recommend you take a closer look at it."
Maria, Rostov: “I use it all the time because after giving birth my skin became dry and sensitive. I like absolutely everything: composition, action, texture, aroma. Copes well with redness and peeling. The skin is nourished and soft with it. Doesn't clog pores and doesn't cause inflammation. I use it all year round, even in summer my face does not get oily. So I advise you to take a closer look at it!”

The peeling and constant feeling of tightness are gone. The texture is thick, I apply it to a damp face. The cream is suitable for dry and sensitive skin. But for combination and oily people it may be too dense"
Alexandra, Stavropol: “I liked this product. I use it in the cold season. I forgot about what a constantly tight and flaky face is like. Provides excellent protection in frosty and windy weather, does not clog pores, and does not provoke inflammation. So I recommend it!”

My dry skin gets enough hydration even in cold weather. I advise you to take a closer look at this tool. It's worth the money"
Olga, Tambov: “The product left a mixed impression. I have normal facial skin, but in cold weather it needs more nourishment. I decided to try this product because I like the products of Natura Siberica. After application, a film is felt on the skin for another half hour. It seems like the product was not absorbed. The skin is sticky to the touch and applying cosmetics is not convenient. Although there are no complaints about the skincare properties themselves: the face is moisturized, there are no peelings, the pores are not clogged and pimples do not appear. Perhaps this is an individual reaction. I recommend the cream, as it is optimal in terms of price and quality"

I personally can’t use it; it’s too oily for my normal skin. So I can only recommend it to those with really dry skin; others are unlikely to like the product.”
Galina, Krasnodar: “I really love this product and buy it all the time. The product has a pleasant texture and delicate aroma. Instantly absorbed and does not leave a greasy or sticky film. Does not provoke rashes or inflammations, does not cause allergies. I recommend!"

Hi all.
I have very dry skin. I always struggle with it. After washing my face like this, my face always feels tight as if I’m wearing a clay mask. And in winter, the nose and chin area may peel. I've had this skin my whole life. I always drink a lot of water during the day (I am constantly thirsty), but apparently it does not stay in my body. (By the way, my skin is prone to dryness on my body and hands). So moisturizers are my cross))))))))
So, naturally, moisturized. I tried a lot of different products. You can’t describe everything, and it’s probably impossible.
So far I haven’t been able to find the perfect one for myself, one that perfectly moisturizes and doesn’t leave a greasy feeling on my face. I hope for your advice.
I'll just mention the last ones:
Penultimate:
Chanel Precision Hydramax+ Active Moisture Fluid
Manufacturer:
Highly effective hydration takes the form of a fresh, melting, airy fluid with a subtle aroma, ideal for daily care of skin that craves freshness and harmony. Intensely hydrated skin becomes more elastic, soft and radiant.
Patented innovation: Physioactive hydration for the first time affects cells deeply to stimulate the dynamics of skin hydration.
The manufacturer says that this product is supposedly super moisturizing.
In fact, nothing special... The smell is pleasant, of course, sour... It does not leave any grease on the face, it is absorbed well, the texture is light. After using it, the face actually acquires some kind of pleasant glow - freshness (this is if you use it for a couple of weeks). But my skin lacks this hydration. Some time after application, the skin still requires moisture - a feeling of dryness appears. It is used sparingly, because liquid texture (fluid), so I used it for a long time. But I won't buy it again. There are better products for the same price.
Price: approximately: 2600 (I think) without discounts
My rating: 3 (the stated super hydration does not match the reality for me, at least).
Last:
CLARINS Radiant Day Cream
Manufacturer: A moisturizing cream that reduces skin imperfections, improves complexion and enhances skin radiance. Stimulates the natural protective functions of the skin, replenishes energy in the cells. Light texture that melts into the skin without leaving any shine.
There is also the same gel. But I took the cream for myself - it is “more powerful”.
Not bad. Doesn't make you greasy. It absorbs well too. It glides easily across the face when applied. Smells nice. But it is consumed very quickly. I use it calmly under makeup. By the way, I didn’t notice any shine. It would seem that everything is fine, but again, my skin lacks this hydration. I want more.
Price: it seems 1500 somewhere without discounts.
Rating: 4 (cheap, but I want better results)
Please advise how you moisturize. Main requirement:good hydration without feeling greasy.
Thanks to all
