Winter is technically almost over, but that doesn’t mean that drying effects it has on our skin will stop anytime soon. Not only does the cold weather make skin dry and patchy, but it also depletes it of its moisture and gets rid of your natural glow. When this happens, you need a good moisturizer or serum to help get your skin hydrated again.
“In general, maintaining good levels of hydration improves your skin overall,” according to anti-aging skincare expert Dr. Thiago Freire, M.D. “Dehydration can make you look older than you are…When you’re hydrated, your skin will retain more moisture. Moist skin looks younger. And it will be more elastic and supple, which also makes your skin look firmer and more toned. Supple and elastic skin also reduces the appearance of wrinkles because the plumpness smoothes the lined surface.”
Now you’re probably wondering which products work best to hydrate the skin, right? Take a cue from your favorite celebrities like Jessica Alba, Khloé Kardashian, and Gwyneth Paltrow to see which hydrating products they swear by to keep their skin looking youthful, supple and glowy:

This moisturizer has a steep price tag, but it's used by some of Hollywood's finest--including Khloé Kardashian. The ultra-rich moisturizing cream leaves a dewy finish and acts as a solution to dryness, uneven skin tone and texture, and enlarged pores with its nourishing, antioxidant-rich formula.
