I'm a Beauty Editor—These Moisturizers Deliver Seriously Glowy Skin

If you're already acquainted with Farmacy Beauty, you'll know that they offer effective science-based skincare solutions formulated from response, farm-sourced ingredients. Their TikTok viral, clinically-tested moisturizer is a standout on its own. It helps repair and protect the skin barrier with antioxidant-rich buckwheat honey, fig extract, and a potent ceramide blend to boost your skin's elasticity and radiance.

I've been seriously impressed with Stella McCartney's Restore Cream, which hydrates the skin with hyaluronic acid, while organic birch sap (rich in vitamin C) and cherry blossom extract help to brighten and give your skin that sought-after glow. Stella McCartney's skincare is also refillable, making it kinder to the environment.

We're all for moisturizers that provide an instant glow, but this one also helps to give your skin that long-term glow. Pioneered with a blend of Japanese purple rice and Okinawa algae extract, these ingredients help to soothe inflammation, while hyaluronic acid and botanical extracts work in tandem to brighten and hydrate your skin from within.

Formulated with kombucha and fermented ginger to boost radiance, this priming moisturizer is one of the glowiest I have come across. Plus, my breakout-prone skin has absolutely no trouble with it. Thanks to its light-reflecting minerals, I get compliments on how healthy my complexion looks whenever I use it. 

This lightweight gel moisturizer is impossibly refreshing on the skin, so it breathes a bit of glowing life into lackluster complexions straight away. On top of that, it also has a golden, pearly sheen that radiates health and vitality.

The Ole Henriksen C-Rush cream is one of my favorite moisturizers. For those who have normal skin, I highly recommend this radiance-boosting formula. The gel-cream texture is lightweight and refreshing but also has a very sheer peachy color (it doesn't have any pigment; it's just the natural color of the cream) that livens up any complexion. 

For no-makeup days, this stuff has become my reach-for. It's jam-packed with oils and fruit extracts for optimum nourishment but doesn't leave a sticky or greasy residue. If you're into a super-glossy finish, nothing compares.

It's a little pricey, I know, but if you ask me, it's also one of the best illuminating products around. With powerhouse hydrators such as hyaluronic acid alongside shea and mango-seed butter, it's a wonderful moisturiser on its own merit. However, it also contains diamond dust to give the most beautifully blurring (and radiant) sheen.

Newly reformulated but from a lifelong-favorite range, this glowing moisturizer champions vitamin C and has glow-giving antioxidant properties. The light, gel-like texture is also wonderfully cooling and invigorating.

This stuff is seriously rich. Full of essential oils and hyaluronic acid, it offers up next-level moisture. Because of this, I wouldn't suggest it as an everyday option. However, its radiance-boosting, glow-giving properties are, if you ask me, totally unrivaled. It has an orange tint to it that works to color-correct and leaves behind the most convincing sun-kissed effect. If you're after instant results, this one is for you.

This ever-so-slightly iridescent formula is basically dewy, healthy-looking skin in a bottle. When applied after serum, it gives skin almost a wet-look finish, but it doesn't look oily or sweaty, either. It just veils the skin in youthful radiance.

Confidence in a Cream has long been my go-to whenever my skin looks really dry. I recently discovered this version. Still containing all of the super-hydrating ingredients like squalane and iris root, it also has 2x more-potent active ingredients that work to reverse 10 visible signs of aging in two weeks.

Sitting somewhere between skincare and a makeup product, this stuff is a really worthwhile add-on. If you don't like the dewy finish that often comes with illuminating moisturizers, listen up. It contains vitamin E and squalane for a super-hydrating punch, but it also has a pearly finish that works to reflect light and boost luminosity. Plus, it's soft and more matte than many others on the list. 

Another rich formula with essential fatty acids, rose-hip oil, and antioxidant maracuja oil, this stuff means business. Ideal for dry skin, it also has a yellow tint (thanks to turmeric) that doesn't just deliver an out-of-this-world glow but also helps even out areas of hyperpigmentation.

Sitting somewhere between a rich moisturizer and a primer, this perfecting balm is ideal for days when you don't want to apply a full base. Reflective pearls illuminate while lychee extract revitalizes.

I've obsessed over this glow-giving moisturizer before. It's one of the most radiance-boosting skincare products I own. To put it bluntly, this is probably the one $145 skincare product I genuinely believe I would consider parting with the cash for.

This moisturizer might not have evident illuminating properties, but its glow-boosting properties go unrivaled. With vitamin C to help boost the skin's natural radiance and an oxygen complex to deliver a dewy glow, it's like healthy skin in a tub. 

A number of celebs (including Rosie Huntington-Whiteley and Katie Holmes) swear by Dr. Barbara Sturm's glowing skincare, and these Glow Drops are a firm favorite. With polygonum bistorta root to help even skin tone, wild rose extract to refine pores and hyaluronic acid to plump and hydrate, these glow drops mean business.

Few skincare ranges are as glow-boosting as Sunday Riley's CEO. Wholesale Replica Bag addition to the range is this lightweight cream, which delivers intense hydration without feeling greasy. On top of generally being a great moisturizer, it is also jam-packed with glow-boosting vitamin C for antioxidant protection and has a very subtle shimmering yellow tint to help give skin a visible energy boost.

Beloved for their cult hot cloth cleanser, Liz Earle really knows a thing or two about caring for skin to ensure maximum glow—and this lightweight gel moisturizer is no exception. It uses a hefty dose of prickly pear to gently exfoliate the skin's surface and reveal the brighter skin below before delivering a dose of skin-brightening vitamin C via acerola cherry. The result is a soft, smooth, and dewy complexion with genuine radiance.
