Moisturisers
A moisturiser keeps water in the skin and supports its protective barrier, even if your skin is oily. Nordic-style skincare puts moisturiser at the centre because of cold, dry winds; in Vietnam's heat and humidity you can usually choose a lighter texture. Oily skin suits gels, combination skin suits lotions, and dry skin suits richer creams with ceramides or plant butters. Apply while the skin is still slightly damp after toner or serum to seal in hydration. The list is ranked by the independent usdxu score from real sales and ratings.
