9 Natural Face Moisturizers And Organic Face Creams

Let Your Natural Beauty Shine

Our skin absorbs the majority of what we put on it, whether it’s face creams, body lotions, or skin oils. And we’ve all seen the side effects when beauty products don’t work well with our skin: rashes, irritation, and dryness abound. That’s why we’re fans of using the highest-quality and most natural ingredients as possible.

We’ve found nine natural and organic face moisturizers for every skin type—the best route to natural and glowing skin. These face moisturizers include ingredients like organic jojoba oil, seed oils, and shea butter to leave skin radiant and leave you ready to take on the day with confidence.

Let us know your favorites! If you're on the search for other natural beauty recommendations, check out our guide to organic makeup and organic skincare products.
