Fact: Winter weather can be *brutal* on your skin. Between the dry heat indoors and the frigid wind outside, it’s no wonder that your usual skincare routine may not be cutting it lately. But don’t give up on your great goals: keeping your skin hydrated in the colder months is This is possible with the right products, such as this Clinique Moisture Surge skin care set.
This set contains not one but two hydration heroes: the Moisture Surge 100H Auto-Replenishing Hydrator and the Moisture Surge Broad Spectrum SPF 28 Sheer Hydrator. Together they deliver lightweight, non-greasy moisture to keep your skin feeling dewy and fresh all day long. Bonus added? The set is $45 off through the end of the month.
Let’s start with the iconic Clinique Moisture Surge 100H Auto-Replenishing Hydrator. This gel-cream powerhouse is basically the skincare equivalent of drinking several full Stanley cups of water, thanks to a blend of glycerin, hyaluronic acid, and aloe, which work together to hydrate, soothe, and plump. Plus, the gel is super light and blends perfectly into the skin without leaving an oily residue, says health writer and editor Jessie Van Amburg.
“Don’t be fooled by the thin, light texture,” says Van Amburg. “This baby is powerful. The name ‘moisture boost’ is not without reason. It’s deeply hydrating yet gentle, which is great for my sensitive AF skin.” Translation? It’s a foolproof solution for anyone who wants long-lasting hydration without the sticky, heavy feeling of traditional creams.
Van Amburg’s biggest problem with the OG? That there was no SPF in it. Enter: Moisture Surge Broad Spectrum SPF 28 Sheer Hydrator. It combines the same lightweight hydration that Van Amburg loves in the original with built-in sun protection. Think of it as your multifunctional morning cream: it is quickly absorbed, fits well under makeup and protects your skin against harmful UV rays. And the sheer finish means there’s no chalky white cast, making it ideal for all skin tones.
What makes this duo a true winter skincare MVP, however, is how seamlessly both products fit into your routine. Use the SPF Sheer Hydrator to lock in moisture and protect your skin before heading out, and let the Replenishing Hydrator work its magic overnight. Together they create a 24/7 hydration system that keeps your skin radiant all winter long.
