Here's Everything Our Shopping Editor Uses to Defeat Her Dry, Dehydrated Skin

I didn't know that a body wash could feel silky, but this one is so heavenly. It's almost oily in texture, but not in a bad way—it doesn't leave a residue.

This moisturizing shampoo is my baseline. It's the one I go back to when my hair is really in dire need of hydration, but it doesn't weigh it down.

I naturally team it with the matching conditioner, which adds shine without making my hair feel greasy.

Don't hate me, but I don't moisturize my body all the time. Body lotions normally make me feel oily and sticky, but this one does not. It's a dream to apply, adds glow, and sinks in quickly without lacking in hydration.

I top everything with this just-launched body oil, and I'm going to keep it on hand to add glow all summer long. Despite being an oil, it doesn't leave me feeling oily. Instead, it sinks in quickly, and it smells like heaven.

I tested this hair gloss for weeks, and it remains in my routine to this day. It's a quick fix to a problem I've had since dying my hair last summer—the color gets dull after a few washes. This boosts shine, makes my hair more manageable, and hides split ends (my favorite part).

This spray removes bacteria and calms my skin without drying it out. It's also faster than traditional cleansing, so it works when I'm running late.

This one product changed my whole routine. I apply it day and night, but it's basically a super shot of hydration for my skin. My moisturizer glides on over it without pilling, and it leaves me with the most insane glow. It will never not be my go-to.

This serum was a February new beauty launch that I tested on a whim, and I've been loving it so far. It's lightweight and adds so much shine that I really look lit from within when I use matte foundation or concealer.

French girls got it right with this moisturizer. It's a dream to apply, lasts forever, and is a perfect base layer underneath makeup. I have several tubes in my stash just in case I run out.

This is the lightweight moisturizer I'm going to use all summer long. It's a watery gel (as the name suggests) and feels instantly cool on the skin, which is much-needed as the weather warms.

This Shiseido sunscreen is my favorite because it doesn't mess with my makeup, doesn't break me out, and leaves me with a healthy glow.

This Patrick Ta foundation has super-full coverage, but it can easily be thinned out for an all-over glowy finish. I simply mix a pump of it with a dash of the Laneige toner.

I owe our senior beauty editor, Samantha Holender, all the credit here—this is the best concealer I've ever used. I keep one in my bathroom and another in my work bag for touch-ups. It layers beautifully, lasts all day (and night), and never creases.

I've been a Merit Beauty fan since the brand first launched, and the Flush Balm cream blushes have been my favorite product. This was my favorite new addition when the shade range expanded in late 2024. It gives me a sun-tinged look that I'll wear all year.

I normally skip primers in my routine, but this one is changing my mind. It's a little tacky (which I like) and gives enough glow that I can almost use it instead of a tinted moisturizer because it makes my skin look so diffused.

I'm a fan of Glossier's OG FutureDew serum, but I love this stick version even more. It's easy to apply and pat into your skin, and it gives you a wet look that never fades away.

I tested this sheer bronzer when it launched, and I've loved it ever since. It's shockingly lightweight but packs enough of a punch in the pigment department. I use it as a bronzed base to add shape and definition, and then I set it with a powder bronzer to lock it in.

This is the perfume I wore on my wedding day, and I still love it. Notes of fig, bergamot, and musk mix with cedar for a floral-yet-grounded scent. Plus, the bottle can be personalized, so I got it made with our wedding date.

It should come as no surprise that I love Cyklar's Cedar Supreme perfume oil. It's so easy to wear (I love layering it with the Sacred Santal scent), and it melds into your skin for an easy everyday look.

I am a bit of a floral perfume girl from time to time. Rose scents normally give me a headache, but this one doesn't. It smells more "pure" than other rose scents. In my mind, it smells more like a bed of roses rather than a typical perfume.

If you love a spring scent that's not floral, I recommend this one from Maison Margiela Replica. It has fresh-smelling notes of rose petals, pine needles, and aquatic accord that leave you smelling, yes, like you just stepped out of a mid-season rainstorm. It's one of the most unique and wearable scents I've ever owned.

My husband wears this scent from Byredo, and I'm sappy, so I wear it when he's out of town—but don't worry, he has a travel-sized edition for himself. It's one of those scents that takes me right back to some of our favorite moments, but I'm convinced I would wear it even if he didn't. Despite containing notes like violet and magnolia, it's one of my favorite unisex scents. I blame notes like ambrette and sandalwood.

If this scent surprises you, knoe that I felt the same way. It's the sweeter of the two new Glossier fragrances and contains notes like toasted almond, plum butter, and buttercream. Musky base notes keep it from going overboard.
