The Body Shop offers a wide range of face moisturisers, from gels to rich creams, using ingredients like Vitamin E, Vitamin C and Edelweiss. Formulas are designed for different skin types and concerns, supporting hydration, comfort and barrier care in both day and night routines.
How much moisturiser should I apply?
A small amount roughly the size of an almond usually covers face and neck effectively. You can adjust based on climate and skin condition, using a bit more in colder, drier weather or on especially dry areas, and reassessing if skin remains tight or uncomfortable.
How can I tell if my moisturiser is working effectively?
A good moisturiser leaves skin feeling comfortable, balanced and hydrated without greasiness. Over a few weeks, you should see softer texture, reduced flakiness and more radiance. Persistent dryness, oiliness or irritation suggests the formula may not suit your skin type.
Can I use the same moisturiser day and night?
You can use one moisturiser for both, but day and night needs differ. Day creams ideally include protective, antioxidant benefits, while night creams can be richer and more reparative. If you stick to one product, choose a balanced formula and customise with serums or treatments as needed.
What type of moisturiser should I use for my skin type?
Oily or combination skin typically suits lightweight, oil-free gel or water-based moisturisers, while dry skin benefits from richer creams with hydrating agents like hyaluronic acid. Sensitive skin does best with fragrance-free, soothing formulas, and normal skin can choose based on season or preference, adjusting as needs change over time.
When should I apply moisturiser in my skincare routine?
Moisturiser should be applied after cleansing and toning while skin is slightly damp, and after serums where used. In the morning, it goes on before sunscreen and makeup; at night, it precedes any facial oils. Using lighter creams by day and more nourishing formulas at night can optimise results.
