The best day moisturisers rounded up by StyleNest.
Looking for the perfect day moisturiser can be a challenge so we’ve rounded up our favourites no matter what your skin type is.
Hydration is key so finding a cream that keeps your skin moisturised throughout the day is important. A day moisturiser will also help to prep your skin before you apply your makeup, helping it to glide on easier and stay put throughout the day. And finally, if you can find a moisturiser that ticks all the right boxes and contains added SPF you’ll be laughing – it’s the easiest, cheapest and most proven way to keep your skin looking younger for longer. Don’t settle for anything less than SPF 15 – prevention is better than cure ladies.
