Compare face moisturiser options
Face moisturisers come in different textures and formats, from lightweight lotions and everyday creams to richer night moisturisers, tinted formulas and options with SPF. Here's a quick comparison to help you decide which direction might suit your skin and daily routine.
| Option | What to compare | May suit shoppers seeking |
|---|---|---|
| Face lotion or fluid | Texture, finish and how it fits with other skincare products | A lighter feel or a moisturiser that's easy to layer into a skincare routine |
| Face cream | Richness, texture and whether it's designed for daytime or evening use | A more substantial moisturiser or a richer feel on the skin |
| Day moisturiser | Texture, finish and whether SPF is included | A moisturiser designed to fit comfortably into a morning skincare routine |
| Night moisturiser | Texture, richness and how it fits with evening skincare | A moisturiser specifically designed for use as part of a night-time routine |
| Tinted moisturiser | Shade, finish, texture and level of tint | Moisture with a touch of colour in one step |
| Moisturiser with SPF | SPF rating, texture and finish | Moisturising and stated sun protection in a daytime product |
Once you've narrowed down the format, ingredients, fragrance, size, packaging and price can help you make the final choice. If your skin prefers lighter textures, start with lotions and fluids; if you enjoy something richer, creams and night moisturisers are worth exploring. You can also mix things up between morning and evening rather than using the same texture all day.
If natural or organic ingredients are important to you, compare the individual formulations rather than expecting every moisturiser in the category to follow the same approach. The range gives you plenty of choice across different textures, ingredients, formats and price points, so you can focus on the features that matter most to your own skincare routine.
Frequently asked questions about face moisturisers
What is the difference between face lotion and face moisturiser?
Face moisturiser is a broad term that includes lotions, creams and other moisturising formulas. Lotions are generally lighter and more fluid, while creams tend to feel richer and more substantial on the skin. There can be plenty of variation between formulas, so texture and finish are useful things to compare when deciding which style you prefer.
How do I choose a moisturiser for my skin type?
Start with how your skin feels and the texture you enjoy using. If your skin tends to feel oily or you dislike a rich finish, a lighter lotion may appeal. If your skin often feels dry or tight, you may prefer a richer cream. Your climate, fragrance and ingredient preferences, and the other products in your skincare routine can also help narrow the choice.
What do natural, organic and eco friendly moisturiser descriptions mean?
Different brands use these descriptions to highlight different things about their products. Natural generally relates to the ingredients or formulation, while organic may apply to particular ingredients or be supported by certification. Environmental features can relate to packaging, sourcing, refills or other aspects of the product. If one of these qualities is particularly important to you, the individual product information will tell you exactly what applies.
Can I use face moisturiser in both morning and evening routines?
Yes, many people are happy using the same moisturiser morning and evening, while others prefer different textures at different times of day. A lighter moisturiser can feel comfortable as part of a morning routine, particularly under other skincare or makeup, while a richer cream may appeal in the evening. You'll also find dedicated day and night moisturisers if you prefer separate products.
Does face moisturiser replace sunscreen?
A regular face moisturiser without SPF doesn't provide sun protection. Some daytime moisturisers combine moisturising ingredients with SPF, while others are designed purely for hydration. If sun protection is important to you, choose a product with a stated SPF and use it according to its directions, or add a dedicated sunscreen to your morning skincare routine.
Practical advice for using a new face moisturiser
A new moisturiser can feel quite different from the one you've been using, particularly if you're changing from a light lotion to a richer cream or trying a new skincare routine. Give yourself a little time to work out how much feels comfortable on your skin and how the product works with the rest of your routine.
Introduce new skincare one product at a time
If you're changing several parts of your skincare routine, introducing one new product at a time makes it much easier to see how your skin responds to each one. This is particularly useful with leave-on products such as moisturisers, serums and facial oils that stay on your skin for longer.
If you have sensitive skin or you're trying unfamiliar ingredients, patch testing can also be a useful first step. Follow any specific guidance provided with the product and discontinue use if irritation occurs.
Experiment with how much moisturiser you use
More isn't necessarily better when it comes to face moisturiser. Rich creams may only need a small amount, while lighter lotions can feel quite different as they're worked into the skin. Start with a modest amount and see how your skin feels before adding more.
You may also find that the amount you enjoy using changes between morning and evening, or depending on what else you're layering underneath or over your moisturiser.
Think about how your skincare layers together
Moisturiser will usually sit towards the later stages of a skincare routine, after cleansing and lighter leave-on products. If you use serums, facial oils or other treatments, give each product a moment to settle and pay attention to how the textures work together.
If products start to ball or pill on the skin, experimenting with smaller amounts or allowing a little more time between layers can sometimes make the routine feel more comfortable.
Your favourite texture may change with the seasons
A moisturiser that feels perfect through summer may feel too light when the weather becomes cooler, while a rich winter cream can feel like too much on a hot, humid day. Indoor heating, air conditioning and travel can also change how your skin feels.
There's no reason you need to use exactly the same moisturiser or the same amount all year. Adjusting the texture or amount as your skin and environment change can make your routine much more comfortable.
Keep SPF in mind for your morning routine
If your moisturiser doesn't contain SPF, you can follow it with your preferred facial sunscreen as part of your morning routine. Where a moisturiser does include SPF, use it according to the product directions so you're getting the stated sun protection rather than treating it purely as a moisturising cream.
