It would be impossible to come across Charlotte Tilbury without recognising the brand’s iconic Magic Cream. Beloved by many, this moisturiser is a mineral-based SPF formula that will provide you with all-day hydration and sun protection. This day cream is great for those who have dryer areas of skin as it’s packed with natural aloe vera extracts for a replenishing feel. Although it initially feels thick on your fingers, it absorbs quickly when massaged onto the skin and leaves a shine-free finish.

A new innovation from Kiehl’s, this moisturiser is a lightweight gel-like water cream that’s infused with the brand’s heritage ingredient, calendula, for lasting, dewy-fresh radiance. Upon application, it feels light and provides the skin with instant relief from irritation. Calendula is known for its skin-smoothing properties and this moisturiser is perfect for those with oily or combination skin, as it really works to calm, soothe and even out texture.
