Moisturizers For Your Skin Type at Ulta Beauty
No two skin types are the same, and your moisturizer should be as unique as you are. Whether you're looking for deep hydration, lightweight balance, or skin-soothing ingredients, there's a formula made just for you.
For personalized recommendations, take our Skin Care Quiz.
Moisturizers for Dry Skin
Lock in long-lasting moisture with rich, nourishing creams that replenish and restore. Look for hydrating ingredients like hyaluronic acid, ceramides, and shea butter.
Moisturizers for Oily Skin
Keep shine under control with lightweight, oil-free moisturizers that hydrate without clogging pores. Gel-based formulas and mattifying ingredients like niacinamide can help maintain a balanced, fresh complexion.
Moisturizers for Sensitive Skin
Soothe and protect with gentle, fragrance-free formulas designed to calm irritation. Look for ingredients like aloe, oat extract, and ceramides to strengthen your skin’s natural barrier.
Clean Ingredient Moisturizers
If you prefer skincare with consciously selected ingredients, explore clean beauty moisturizers free from parabens, sulfates, and synthetic fragrances. Hydrate your skin while staying true to your values.
Moisturizers for Acne-Prone Skin
Support a clear, balanced complexion with lightweight, non-comedogenic moisturizers. Formulas with salicylic acid, niacinamide, and tea tree oil can help keep breakouts in check without stripping your skin.
Moisturizers for Mature Skin
Soften fine lines and boost collagen with deeply hydrating and anti-aging formulas. Look for ingredients like retinol, peptides, and vitamin C to nourish and support a radiant glow.
Frequently Asked Questions
What are the different types of moisturizing ingredients?
Moisturizing ingredients generally fall into three categories: humectants, emollients, and occlusives.
- Humectants like hyaluronic acid and glycerin draw moisture into the skin.
- Emollients such as ceramides and squalane help smooth and soften by filling in gaps between skin cells.
- Occlusives like shea butter and petrolatum create a barrier to lock in hydration and prevent moisture loss.
Many moisturizers combine these ingredients for optimal hydration.
Is it better to apply moisturizer on wet or dry skin?
Apply moisturizer to slightly damp skin after cleansing. This helps lock in the moisture and maximizes hydration. Avoid soaking wet skin, as this can dilute the product.
When should I apply moisturizer and how much should I use?
Apply moisturizer twice daily, in the morning and at night, as the last step in your skincare routine.
Use a pea-sized amount for the face and a nickel-sized amount for the neck and décolletage. If your skin feels dry throughout the day, you can layer a lightweight formula or facial mist for an extra hydration boost.
