The Ordinary Moisturizers Review – Which One Should I Use?
Does The Ordinary have a good moisturiser?
The Ordinary doesn´t have one good moisturizer. They have THREE!
- The Ordinary Natural Moisturizing Factors + HA – This is the original moisturizer that I have used for 6 years! It is rich and creamy, and I never thought I would change it for another moisturizer – but I have! I love the NMF + PhytoCeramides
- The Ordinary Natural Moisturizing Factors + PhytoCeramides – The most nourishing moisturizer of them all. This is, even more, creamier and hydrating than the original
- The Ordinary Natural Moisturizing Factors + Beta Glucan – This is a lightweight clear gel moisturizer and perfect for summer months and oily skin.
The 3 Ordinary Moisturizers
What Type of Skin is The Ordinary Moisturizer For?
There is a moisturizer for everyone and all skin types.
- Natural Moisturizing Factors + HA is great for non-greasy hydration and suitable for anyone!. If you have tried this and prefer a lighter moisturiser, then go for Beta Glucan. If you didn´t find this hydrating enough, go for PhytoCeramides.
- The Natural Moisturizing Factors + PhytoCeramides offers a thicker option for more dry skin. This leaves skin looking dewy. I love all 3, but this is my favourite. If you find this too rich, try the original Natural Moisturizing Factors + HA.
- Natural Moisturizing Factors + Beta Glucan keeps things light with lasting hydration and would be great for oily skin.

You could choose any of the 3 moisturizers. If you have a store near you that sells The Ordinary, I would pop in and try them all.
