Healthy Hydration

We loved these moisturizers made from naturally derived ingredients. Consider them the equivalent of a new winter coat for your face.

Oily skin

It also contains organic essential oils—such as pink grapefruit and rosemary—for their antibacterial and antimicrobial properties. $27.95 for 1.2 oz.; mychelleusa.com

Sensitive skin
Dr. Andrew Weil for Origins Plantidote Mega-Mushroom Face Cream
