Because why not give it a try?

Bobbi Brown’s Skin Moisture Solution

The well-known brand Bobbi Brown offers a serum, or "the product you apply just before the facial cream to boost its effect, making you look and feel like a million dollars." In this case, three drops of the formula work like a moisture magnet, binding hydration to the skin. It costs NIS 215 per bottle, available at brand stores and online.

NUXE Multi-Purpose Oil

Looking for an all-in-one solution? In the cold days, it might be better to abandon creams in favor of NUXE's Huile Prodigieuse body oil. This multi-purpose moisturizing oil, for nourishing and repairing skin (and hair), is composed of seven botanical oils, including vitamin E, borage for anti-aging, macadamia nuts, hazelnut and softening almond, camellia, and restoring argan. The oil, with a fragrance of orange blossom, vanilla, and magnolia, costs NIS 180 for 100 ml, available on NUXE's website, Super-Pharm, Guilty, and selected pharmacies.
