I have used the phrase ‘best moisturiser I’ve ever tried’ far too frequently, but this time I really mean it - my dry and dehydrated skin has never been happier

As a beauty editor, who really loves a good moisturiser, I have tried a fair few of them over the years. As soon as a new one drops onto my desk, straight into my handbag it goes for testing. You see, whilst I appreciate that the best face serums are the grafters in any skincare routine and help you target certain issues, as someone with dry skin, prone to dehydration, I find immense comfort in a pot of face cream. Comfort is the key word here. I would describe my face as parched, which means that my skin can often feel uncomfortable - we're talking tight, rough and sometimes even itchy. Just to recap: dry skin is a skin type with very little oil, dehydration is a condition that occurs when there is a lack of water. So I am always searching for creams that provide an instant soothing feeling - if any cream doesn't do this, then it gets passed off to someone else.

I will admit that there are lots of creams that do this, as I said I have tried hundreds and hundreds over the years, and I have claimed rather a few of them as my best moisturiser for dry skin. However, I can now hold my hands up and say that I was wrong, oh so wrong. Because, the best moisturiser for dry and dehydrated skin is, in fact, SkinCeuticals Triple Lipid Restore 2:4:2.
