With a blend of natural moisturizing factors, beta glucan, and ceramides, it also fortifies the skin's natural barrier.

Review: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent Everyday Moisturiser – Lightweight, Hydrating and Great Value - ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Simple, Effective Moisturiser That Delivers Excellent Results The The Ordinary Natural Moisturizing Factors + HA is one of the best everyday moisturisers I’ve used. It does exactly what it promises—providing long-lasting hydration without feeling heavy, greasy or sticky. The cream absorbs quickly into the skin, leaving it feeling soft, smooth and well moisturised throughout the day. It’s fragrance-free, making it ideal for sensitive skin, and it layers well under sunscreen or other skincare products without pilling. A little goes a long way, so the tube lasts surprisingly well, making it excellent value for money. Despite its simple formula, it’s very effective at helping to prevent dryness and keeping skin feeling comfortable. Pros: * Lightweight but deeply hydrating * Absorbs quickly * Non-greasy finish * Fragrance-free and suitable for sensitive skin * Great value for money * Works well as an everyday moisturiser The only minor downside is that if you prefer heavily scented skincare products, this may feel a little plain—but that’s also one of its strengths for those wanting a straightforward, no-nonsense moisturiser. Overall, this is an outstanding everyday moisturiser that focuses on effective hydration rather than gimmicks. I’d happily buy it again and highly recommend it for anyone looking for a reliable, affordable skincare staple.
Review: My Perfect Moisturiser for Summer - I've really enjoyed using this moisturiser, especially during the warmer months. The lightweight gel texture feels refreshing on the skin and absorbs quickly without leaving any greasy or sticky feeling behind. It provides just the right amount of hydration for summer. My skin feels comfortable and moisturised throughout the day, but it never feels heavy, even on hot or humid days. I also like that it layers well under sunscreen and makeup without causing pilling. It leaves my skin feeling soft and balanced, making it a great everyday option. If you have very dry skin, you might prefer something richer during winter, but for spring and summer this has been just about perfect for me. It's a simple, effective moisturiser that's ideal if you're looking for lightweight hydration and a comfortable finish during the warmer seasons.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great natural moisturizer
*by A***A on 4 July 2026*

Excellent product for my sensitive skin. It's not oily and my skin feels smooth and soft. A bit dry after absorption, that's ok because I use facial oil anyway. I will recommend and buy it again. I love Ordinary products anyways.
