When it comes to taking care of dry skin, it’s best to go for a face cream that delivers deep and lasting hydration. Medik8’s Total Moisture Daily Facial Cream is a great choice for parched complexions – and it’s now 20% off on Amazon.
You may have heard of Medik8 products before, such as the Crystal Retinal Vitamin A Serum with its anti-wrinkle formula, or the C-Tetra Serum that works brilliantly to reduce dark spots and improve hyperpigmentation. This Total Moisture Daily cream, loved by 1,160 shoppers with a high 4.9 out of five star-rating, delivers ‘multi-layered moisturisation’ throughout the day to protect the skin barrier and provide microbiome support.
Originally priced at £45 for a 50ml full-size tub, you can currently get it cheaper over at Amazon for £36 instead. The formula is rated by customers as “nourishing, hydrating on skin and perfect for the colder months”.
Experts created the cream with a blend of moisturisation heroes including multi-weight hyaluronic acid and a unique, barrier-supporting prebiotic peptide to provie intense hydration and help improve skin health in just one hour.
One shopper enjoyed using the face cream and she said: “It sits well under makeup. My face doesn’t go shiny during the day using this. It also doesn’t irritate my skin or block my pores. I have combination skin and get cystic acne along my jaw.”
OK! beauty writer Laura Mulley tried the cream first-hand and said it’s a “game-changer”. She shared on The Mirror: “It’s nourishing but non-greasy, banishes dryness without making me break out in spots, and leaves my skin looking fresher, plumper and healthier, a result that lasts all day. I honestly think all skin types can use it and love it – it has made me reintroduce this skincare step back into my routine, and my skin is all the better for it.”
Total Moisture Daily Facial Cream has been rigorously tested on all skin types and tones through clinical, consumer and analytical scientific trials, with remarkable results on skin moisturisation. 100% of the testers agreed their skin felt less dry and tight and 55% found instant increase in skin hydration.
But some shoppers were disappointed after trying the cream, one shared: “Sadly this cream will not absorb and just sits atop my skin and peels off.”
A second added: “The texture of the moisturizer is good, non-scented, lightweight enough to feel hydrated when applied but not think and sticky. However, it makes my skin very congested. I’ve noticed an increase in stubborn breakouts, particularly around chin and jawline since using.”
But Medik8 claims the formula “won’t clog pores” and is proven to layer well under sunscreen and makeup while prolonging makeup wear. You can try the Total Moisture Daily Facial Cream with 20% off on Amazon.
Elsewhere, if you want to try new launches, Paula’s Choice Pro-Collagen Peptide Plumping Moisturiser is worth a go. The gel-cream, £49 at SpaceNK, aims to plump and restore bounce for a youthful appearance while providing up to 24 hours of hydration.
Drunk Elephant’s Protini Moisturiser features a blend of nine signal peptides and amino acids to visibly improve skin tone, texture and firmness. You can get it at Boots and save 15% with code SAVE15 and purchase at £52.70 instead of £62.
