Natural Face Moisturisers & Creams

A good moisturiser helps keep skin feeling comfortable, soft and hydrated, but the right formula can look different for everyone.

At Evergreen, you'll find natural face moisturisers from trusted skincare brands, from lightweight lotions and gels to richer face creams and nourishing formulas. Whether your skin is dry, oily, sensitive, combination or mature, you can choose a moisturiser to suit your skin type and daily routine.

Choosing a Moisturiser for Your Skin Type

Understanding your skin type is a useful starting point when choosing a face moisturiser.

Moisturiser for Dry Skin

Dry skin often feels tight, rough or uncomfortable and may benefit from a richer, more nourishing moisturiser. Look for formulas designed to help hydrate and soften the skin, with ingredients such as hyaluronic acid, glycerin, ceramides and nourishing plant oils.

Moisturiser for Sensitive Skin

If your skin is easily irritated or feels uncomfortable after using certain products, a simple, gentle skincare routine may be preferable. Look for moisturisers formulated specifically with sensitive skin in mind and introduce new products gradually.

Moisturiser for Combination Skin

Combination skin can feel oily in some areas, particularly around the T-zone, while other areas feel normal or dry. A lightweight but hydrating moisturiser can help provide moisture without feeling unnecessarily heavy.

Moisturiser for Oily Skin

Oily skin still needs moisture. Rather than avoiding moisturiser altogether, look for lighter lotions, gels and non-greasy formulas that provide hydration without feeling overly rich.

Moisturiser for Mature Skin

Skin can become drier over time, making hydration and nourishment an increasingly important part of a daily skincare routine. Moisturisers for mature skin may combine hydrating and nourishing ingredients with ingredients commonly used in age-supporting skincare.

What Ingredients Should You Look for in a Face Moisturiser?

The best ingredients for you will depend on your skin and what you want from your moisturiser. Some commonly used ingredients include:

Hyaluronic acid – a humectant used in skincare to attract and retain moisture.

Glycerin – another humectant commonly found in hydrating face creams and lotions.

Ceramides – lipids naturally present in the skin and commonly included in moisturisers designed to support the skin barrier.

Plant oils and butters – ingredients such as jojoba oil, rosehip oil and shea butter can provide a richer, more nourishing feel.

Aloe vera – widely used in moisturising and soothing skincare formulas.

Different formulas combine these ingredients in different ways, so consider the complete product rather than choosing a moisturiser based on one ingredient alone.

Face Cream, Lotion or Gel: Which Should You Choose?

Moisturisers come in a variety of textures.

Face creams tend to have a richer texture and may appeal particularly to dry or mature skin.

Lotions generally have a lighter consistency and can work well for everyday use.

Gel moisturisers are typically lightweight and can be particularly appealing to combination or oily skin.

Your preference may also change throughout the year. You might prefer a lighter moisturiser during warmer weather and a richer face cream when the weather becomes colder.

Day and Night Moisturisers

You don't necessarily need separate moisturisers for morning and evening, but some people prefer different textures or ingredients at different times of day.

A daytime moisturiser may be lighter and sit comfortably beneath make-up and SPF, while a richer night cream can provide additional moisture as part of an evening skincare routine. Take a look at our Night Cream collection here. 

If your daytime moisturiser doesn't contain suitable sun protection, apply a separate facial SPF as the final step in your morning skincare routine.

What Is a Natural Moisturiser?

There isn't one universal definition of a “natural” moisturiser. Products described as natural skincare may use plant oils, botanical extracts, natural butters and other naturally derived ingredients, but formulations vary considerably between brands.

At Evergreen, we focus on carefully selected skincare brands and make the individual ingredient information available so you can choose products that suit your own preferences and skin.

How to Use a Face Moisturiser

Apply moisturiser to clean skin after cleansing and any serums you use. Gently massage the product over your face and neck, following the directions for the individual product.

Moisturiser can be used morning and evening, although how much you need may depend on your skin type, the product and the time of year.

Build Your Skincare Routine

Moisturiser is usually one of the final steps in a skincare routine. Start with a Face Cleanser to remove make-up, SPF and everyday impurities. You can then apply any Face Serums or treatments before your moisturiser. During the day, finish with a Facial SPF to help protect your skin from UV exposure.

You can also explore our wider Natural Skincare range to find cleansers, toners, face oils, masks and other products to complement your moisturiser.
