Dry skin usually suits a richer, cream based moisturiser, while oily or combination skin often prefers a lighter, gel based formula. The right texture depends on how much hydration your skin needs and how it tends to feel by midday.

Gel moisturisers are lighter and absorb quickly, which suits oily or combination skin well. Cream moisturisers are richer and help hold moisture for longer, which usually suits drier skin types better, especially through winter months.

Yes. Skipping moisturiser can leave oily skin feeling dehydrated and looking shinier by the end of the day. A lightweight, oil free formula hydrates without adding heaviness or shine, keeping skin balanced throughout the day.

Moisturisers with ingredients like ceramides and hyaluronic acid help support the skin's natural barrier function, which plays a role in keeping moisture in and everyday irritants out, especially in colder or drier conditions.

Not necessarily, though many people prefer a lighter formula during the day, especially under sunscreen or makeup, and a richer one at night while skin is resting and not exposed to daily environmental factors.
