Face Moisturisers for Combination Skin
Combination skin can make choosing a moisturiser feel tricky. Some areas of your face may become oily, particularly around the forehead, nose and chin, while your cheeks or other areas feel normal or dry.
The aim isn't to avoid moisture, but to find a formula that provides enough hydration without feeling unnecessarily heavy on oilier areas.
At Evergreen, you'll find face moisturisers for combination skin from trusted skincare brands, including lightweight lotions, gels and hydrating face creams.
How to Choose a Moisturiser for Combination Skin
When choosing a moisturiser, think about how your skin feels across your whole face rather than focusing only on oily areas.
A lightweight, hydrating moisturiser can be a useful starting point for combination skin. You may prefer formulas that absorb easily and leave the skin feeling comfortable rather than overly rich or greasy.
Your needs can also change with the seasons, so the moisturiser that suits you in summer may not provide enough hydration during colder weather.
What Ingredients Are Good for Combination Skin?
There isn't one ingredient that works for everyone, but several ingredients are commonly found in hydrating moisturisers.
Hyaluronic Acid
Hyaluronic acid is a humectant used in skincare to attract and retain moisture. It can be incorporated into lightweight formulations, making it popular in skincare for combination skin.
Glycerin
Glycerin is another widely used humectant that helps attract moisture and can be found in lotions, gels and creams.
Aloe Vera
Aloe vera is commonly included in lightweight skincare formulations designed to provide hydration and a soothing feel.
Jojoba Oil
Plant oils aren't necessarily unsuitable for combination skin. Jojoba oil, for example, is used in many facial skincare formulas.
Rather than choosing a moisturiser because of one particular ingredient, consider the complete formulation and how it feels on your skin.
Hydrating Moisturisers for Combination Skin
Combination skin can still need hydration, even when some areas become oily. This is an important distinction because oily skin and hydrated skin aren't opposites. A lightweight hydrating moisturiser can help provide moisture without requiring a particularly rich cream.
If your combination skin tends to feel dry, you may prefer a creamier texture. If oiliness is your main concern, a lighter gel or lotion may feel more comfortable.
Day and Night Moisturisers for Combination Skin
You don't necessarily need separate day and night creams, but you may prefer different textures at different times. During the day, a lightweight moisturiser can sit comfortably beneath make-up and SPF. In the evening, you might prefer a slightly richer formula if your skin feels drier after cleansing.
Choose according to how your skin feels rather than assuming your night moisturiser has to be heavy.
Combination Skin That Feels Dry
Some people find that their combination skin becomes noticeably drier during colder weather or in particular areas of the face.
If dryness becomes the dominant concern, explore our Moisturisers for Dry Skin for richer and more nourishing options.
You can also adjust how you use your moisturiser, applying a little more to areas that feel dry rather than necessarily using the same amount across your whole face.
Combination and Sensitive Skin
It's also possible to have combination skin that is sensitive. In that case, consider both concerns when choosing products. Look for a texture that suits combination skin alongside a formulation designed with sensitive skin in mind.
Explore our Moisturisers for Sensitive Skin if sensitivity is a significant concern.
Combination Skin That Is More Oily
If oiliness is more noticeable than dryness, you may find that products designed specifically for oily skin are a better fit.
Our Moisturisers for Oily Skin focus on lightweight hydration for skin that tends to become oily.
Building a Skincare Routine for Combination Skin
A simple routine is often a good starting point. Use a suitable Face Cleanser, followed by any serum you use and then your moisturiser. In the morning, finish with an appropriate Facial SPF.
Avoid assuming that oilier areas need aggressive cleansing or no moisturiser at all. Instead, choose products according to how your skin responds.
