The Best Lightweight Moisturizers for Surviving Summer’s Homestretch

mikael jansson vogue june 2008

It’s the second week of August—and what started out earlier this summer as a healthy vacation glow is officially starting to resemble a perpetual sweaty sheen. It’s time to switch to the lightest moisturizer possible, and thanks to the latest breakthrough textures, there’s no shortage of good options: Korean import Belif’s liquid aqua bomb drenches skin with a water-like consistency that absorbs instantly and completely, meaning it doubles as a perfect primer for makeup; meanwhile, Peter Thomas Roth’s detox formula infuses hyaluronic acid, vitamin C, and soothing cucumber extract into a springy gel. If it’s your T-zone that’s having issues, Lancôme’s Bienfait Pure Focus matifying moisturizer can be used on your forehead, nose, and chin—it contains ingredients like salicylic acid and zinc gluconate to absorb oil and shrink pores. And though you might never know it from its completely weightless finish, SkinCeuticals’s patent-pending emulsion contains a super-dose of glycerin, plus ingredients to correct the signs of sun damage. Sounds like the perfect recipe to transition into fall.
