Lightweight hydration for every skin type.

Best Bang for the Buck

Origins

A combination toner, refresher, and moisturizer with serious restorative power.

Smells great and works well for all skin types, from dry to oily. Helps clarify skin to prevent damage from pollution and restores vitality and firmness.

Virgin Marula Luxury Facial Oil

Not hydrating enough to replace a moisturizing lotion or cream entirely.

Drunk Elephant

A versatile serum, containing Marula oil, that's rich in antioxidants to moisturize and reduce the appearance of lines and wrinkles.

Customers with oily or combination skin have found it to be especially effective for hydrating the T zone.

Midnight Recovery Concentrate

Only comes in one large, relatively pricey size.

Kiehl's

A highly rated serum that replenishes skin overnight so that you wake up with a visibly bright, healthy glow.

Users with dry and oily skin find this product to work exactly as advertised. Only requires a few drops at night to notice a difference in the morning.

Somewhat expensive for the quantity.

The priciest serum on this list, but a cult favorite from a trusted French brand for good reason.

This luxurious beautifying oil works on hair, nails, and skin. Helps the skin produce natural collagen to smooth signs of fine lines.
