Anyone who suffers with tight, dry skin will feel instant relief.

Ceramidin Serum, £36 | Dr Jart+

Best For: Rapid Results

This wonder serum goes deep to optimise the health of the skin barrier – and it’s particularly good for those with drier skin types. Dull or dehydrated skin is often a reflection of a parched skin barrier – and this quick fix serum is designed to rapidly reveal a smoother, brighter complexion. Apply morning and night to a clean face for best results.

B-Hydra Intensive Hydration Serum, £42 | Drunk Elephant

Best For: Very Dry Skin

This serum is biocompatible – meaning it is formulated to penetrate the skin without disrupting its natural balance – but it’s also able to replenish very dry skin. Better hydration means better texture, look and tone, making this one ideal for severely dried-out skin or complexions which have had a little too much sun exposure.

Avocado Ceramide Recovery Serum, £38 | Glow Recipe

Best For: Natural Ingredients

Containing a blend of nourishing fats, this serum rehydrates the skin's delicate barrier with an ultra-lightweight, milky formula that’s infused with the brand’s hero ingredient – avocado. It quickly absorbs into the skin and is held there to replenish dry, irritated or damaged complexions. Ceramide-5 calms redness while a dose of barrier-boosting pre-, pro- and post-biotics defends the skin against external aggressors to maintain long-term barrier health.
