Moisturizers

Moisturizers are the cornerstone of every effective skincare routine, providing essential hydration and barrier protection for healthy, radiant skin. As recommended by Emmy-nominated dermatologist Dr. Sheila Nazarian, our collection features the best medical grade moisturizer formulations designed to address dryness, aging, sensitivity, and compromised skin barriers. These clinically-tested formulas contain advanced ingredients including hyaluronic acid, ceramides, and peptides that work synergistically to restore moisture, strengthen skin's protective barrier, and prevent transepidermal water loss.

Whether you need a best face moisturizer for daily hydration, an anti aging moisturizer to combat fine lines, or a moisturizer for sensitive skin that calms irritation, our curated selection delivers professional results. As we age, oil glands produce less sebum, causing skin to become dehydrated and compromised. From hyaluronic acid moisturizer formulations that hold 1000 times their weight in water to barrier repair cream options that rebuild damaged skin, each product addresses specific concerns while maintaining optimal skin health for lasting improvements.

Advanced Hydration Technology That Works

Our medical grade moisturizer collection contains scientifically-backed ingredients that deliver measurable hydration results. Hyaluronic acid moisturizer formulations attract and bind water molecules to plump skin and reduce the appearance of fine lines. Peptide moisturizer options stimulate collagen production while providing deep hydration for firmer, smoother skin. The renowned skinceuticals triple lipid restore combines ceramides, cholesterol, and fatty acids in optimal ratios to replenish natural lipids and restore barrier function.

Barrier repair cream formulations contain essential lipids and niacinamide to strengthen compromised skin and prevent moisture loss. Anti aging moisturizer options feature retinol alternatives, growth factors, and antioxidants that hydrate while addressing wrinkles and loss of firmness. Moisturizer for dry skin provides intensive hydration with rich textures that comfort tight, flaky skin without clogging pores.

Moisturizer for sensitive skin features gentle, fragrance-free formulas with soothing ingredients like colloidal oatmeal and centella asiatica. Neck firming cream addresses the often-neglected neck and décolletage with targeted ingredients that hydrate while improving elasticity. Pair moisturizers with our serums and treatments for layered hydration benefits.

How to Choose and Apply Your Moisturizer

Select your best face moisturizer based on skin type and concerns: lightweight gels for oily skin, rich creams for dry skin, and fragrance-free options for sensitive skin. Apply to damp skin after cleansing and applying serums to lock in active ingredients and maximize hydration. Use gentle upward motions on face and neck, extending to the décolletage.

For optimal results, apply medical grade moisturizer twice daily—morning and night. Layer hyaluronic acid moisturizer over vitamin C serum in the morning, and apply anti aging moisturizer after retinol at night. Most users notice improved hydration within days, with visible improvements in texture, plumpness, and barrier health after 2-4 weeks.
