4 Ultralight Moisturizers That Are Perfect for Spring
The Multitasker: Ursa Major Fortifying Face Balm, $36
Made in Vermont from natural oils and extracts, this product was designed to cover all your skincare bases. Aloe and willow bark soothe skin after shaving, while firming ingredients like birch sap offer built-in antiaging. Better yet, its featherweight formula absorbs without a trace.
The Shine Buster: Ernest Supplies Protective Matte Moisturizer, $25
This concentrated moisturizer is oil's natural enemy. On top of a long list of all-natural ingredients, its formula features dimethicone, a mineral that soaks up excess oil to instantly mattify skin. All this comes in a military-inspired pouch that's portable, spill-proof, and more than a little bad-ass.
The Classic: Baxter of California Oil Free Moisturizer, $22
With a heritage that traces back to 1965, Baxter of California isn't one to disappoint. Tapping skin-soothing ingredients like green tea and chamomile, this is a product you'll look forward to using: It goes on cool, smells fantastic, and leaves no greasy residue.
The SPF Hybrid: Jack Black Double-Duty Face Moisturizer, $28
If you're exposed to the sun on a daily basiseven for an hour or twoyou'll want a moisturizer with integrated SPF. This lightweight hydrator will do you one better: In addition to SPF 20 protection, it's made with nourishing algae extracts that repair damaged cells overnight.
