Product watch: moisturising skincare creams

As the weather turns cold our skin can really suffer. It’s time to lather on an intensely moisturising skincare cream to offset the harsh, dehydrating effect.

There are a few new intensely moisturising skincare creams on the market and not a second too soon as the weather has taken a turn for the Baltic.

One that I have been really impressed with is Origins’ Make A Difference Plus + Ultra-Rich Rejuvenating Cream (€42.50). This is truly one of the richest face creams I have ever used. It sinks into the skin and leaves it feeling moist and plump all day. This may not look like much — Origins don’t go in for the prettifying of products that other brands might, but boy does it work. If you have dehydrated skin, you will feel your face quite literally sucking this product in. It contains a lychee and watermelon complex that rehydrates skin at a deep level.
