WHICH ARE THE BEST MOISTURIZERS FOR GLOWING SKIN?

August 14, 2024

Achieving that coveted, radiant, dewy complexion often starts with finding the right moisturizer. A good moisturizer not only hydrates your skin but can also help brighten, smooth, and give you that sought-after glow. Let's explore some of the best moisturizers that can help you achieve glowing skin, along with their key ingredients and benefits.

1.   Fresh Lotus Youth Preserve Line & Texture Smoothing Day Cream

Fresh, a firm favorite moisturizer brand in the U.S., has carefully formulated this day cream to facilitate brighter and healthier skin. The main ingredient is lotus extract, a flower that isn't just pretty in ponds but is also great for your skin as it fights off environmental stressors that can make your face look dull and tired.

This cream also contains star fruit leaf extract, which can help smooth out wrinkles and soften your skin. There's also hyaluronic acid in the mix — a gentle exfoliator that acts like a sponge, soaking up moisture and making your skin look plump and dewy.

What's really cool about this cream is how light it feels. It quickly sinks into your skin, leaving it soft and glowy without any greasy or sticky residue.

2.   Beauty Pie Superdrops Skin Glow Tinter

For those who prefer a tinted moisturizer, the Beauty Pie Superdrops Skin Glow Tinter is an excellent choice. This product combines skincare and makeup, offering a subtle tint that evens out skin tone while providing hydration and glow.

The formula contains collagen amino acids and peptides to help improve skin elasticity and firmness over time. It also includes hyaluronic acid for hydration and to help improve skin texture and minimize the appearance of pores.

What’s more, the light-reflecting particles in this tinted moisturizer give an instant glow, making it perfect for those days when you want a natural, luminous look without heavy makeup.

3.   Liz Earle Revitalize & Glow Cream

Everyone knows Liz Earle's Revitalize & Glow Cream is another excellent option if you want your skin to look bright and healthy. It’s packed with natural ingredients that help nourish and brighten the skin, including sea buckthorn oil, which is rich in vitamins A, C, and E. These vitamins work together to protect the skin from environmental damage and promote a healthy, glowing complexion.

The cream also contains prickly pear, known for combating oxidative damage. However, what sets this moisturizer apart is its inclusion of natural exfoliants like fruit acids. These gentle exfoliants help remove dead skin cells, revealing the fresh, glowing skin underneath. The result is a smoother, brighter complexion that looks naturally radiant.

4.   Elemis Superfood AHA Glow Cleansing Butter

While not strictly a moisturizer, the Elemis Superfood AHA Glow Cleansing Butter deserves a mention for its glow-boosting properties. This unique product acts as both a cleanser and a treatment, helping to prep your skin for optimal moisturizer absorption.

The cleansing butter contains a blend of fermented pumpkin enzymes and acerola cherry, both rich in AHAs (alpha-hydroxy acids). These ingredients gently exfoliate the skin, removing dead skin cells and promoting cell turnover. This process helps reveal brighter, more radiant skin.

The formula also includes nourishing mango butter, which helps to moisturize and soften the skin. By using this product before your regular moisturizer, you're creating the perfect canvas for glowing skin.

5.   Glow Recipe Plum Plump Hyaluronic Cream

Glow Recipe's Plum Plump Hyaluronic Cream is a fantastic choice for achieving plump, hydrated, and glowing skin. As the name suggests, this moisturizer is packed with hyaluronic acid, which provides intense hydration to the skin.

The cream also contains plum extract, rich in antioxidants that help protect the skin from environmental stressors. These antioxidants work by preventing premature aging to keep your skin looking fresh and radiant.

What makes this moisturizer particularly good for achieving glowing skin is its lightweight, gel-cream texture. It absorbs quickly into the skin, providing hydration without feeling heavy or greasy. The result is plump, dewy skin that looks naturally glowing.

6.   Clinique Moisture Surge 100H Auto-Replenishing Hydrator

Last but not least, the Clinique Moisture Surge 100H Auto-Replenishing Hydrator is a powerhouse when it comes to hydration and glow. The name "100H" refers to how long it works — up to 100 hours. That's over four days! So, even if you wash your face, the hydrating effects can still keep working.

The oil-free gel-cream formula contains aloe vera water and hyaluronic acid, both excellent for hydrating the skin. It also includes an auto-replenishing technology that helps your skin create its own internal water source, keeping it hydrated throughout the day. Plus, it's perfect for all skin types, even oily skin that's prone to shine.

Finding a Moisturizer To Make Your Skin Glow

When choosing a moisturizer for glowing skin, look for ingredients like hyaluronic acid for hydration, vitamin C for brightening, and antioxidants for protection against environmental stressors.

While these ingredients are generally good for most people, it's important to remember that skin care isn't one-size-fits-all. Your skin is unique, just like you. What works wonders for your friend or a beauty influencer might not have the same effect on your skin.

That's why it's smart to do a little test when you try a new product. Here's how:

  1. Put a small amount of the product on a patch of skin, maybe on your inner arm or behind your ear.

  2. Wait a day or two to see how your skin reacts.

  3. If you don't see any redness, itching, or other negative reactions, it's probably safe to use on your face.

Healthy, Hydrated Skin

With the right moisturizer and a consistent skincare routine, you can enjoy a dewy, glowing complexion. But remember moisturizer is just one part of keeping your skin healthy. Getting enough sleep, drinking plenty of water, eating a balanced diet, and protecting your skin from the sun are all important, too.
