La Roche-Posay Moisturisers

La Roche-Posay Moisturisers

La Roche-Posay moisturisers cover a lot of ground, from oil-free gels for shiny skin to rich creams and balms for dry, reactive skin. Many of them are designed with sensitive skin in mind, which makes the range a useful place to look if you find a lot of creams just don't suit you. Adore Beauty is an official stockist, so you can shop the range here and narrow it down by skin type below.

La Roche-Posay Moisturisers by Skin Type

For oily skin, the Effaclar Mat Anti-Acne Moisturiser is oil-free but still hydrating, so skin feels nourished without the extra shine. The Effaclar H Biome Moisturiser is aimed at skin prone to acne and sensitivity, and is hydrating and softening for skin going through acne or facial treatments. You'll find more in the Effaclar range. If you're combination or sensitive, the Toleriane Sensitive Prebiotic Moisturiser has a light, gel-like texture made for tightness, tingling and dryness, while the Toleriane Sensitive Riche version is the one to look at for dry skin. The Toleriane range has the rest.

Creams, Gels and Balms for Hydration

If hydration is the priority, the Hyalu B5 Cream is a rich, re-plumping face cream with three forms of hyaluronic acid, vitamin B5 and ectoin. Prefer something lighter? The Hyalu Water Gel Cream is a gel-in-water moisturiser that keeps shine in check. For very dry or easily irritated skin there's the Cicaplast Baume B5+, a balm listed as suitable for dry, very dry or sensitive skin, and for the face and body from babies to adults.

Where a Moisturiser Fits in Your Routine

Moisturiser goes on after cleansing and any serums or eye cream, and before sunscreen in the morning. Test a new product on a small area first, especially if your skin is reactive, and give it some time before deciding whether it suits you. If you're dealing with a skin condition, it's worth checking with your GP or dermatologist before changing your routine.
