Which moisturiser is best for dry skin in Pakistan?
Dry skin lacks oil and has a weaker barrier, so it loses water quickly — especially in winter, in air-conditioned offices and in dusty, dry cities. Look for ceramides, panthenol, squalane, shea or hyaluronic acid in a cream texture.
- CeraVe Moisturizing Cream for Dry to Very Dry Skin — rich, fragrance-free, good for face and body.
- Purito Seoul Luminous Ceramide Moisturizer 100ml — lighter ceramide cream for daytime.
- Beauty of Joseon Dynasty Cream 100ml — a nourishing cream with a soft glow.
- Isntree Hyaluronic Acid Moist Cream 100ml — hydration without heaviness.
Cream or lotion — which is better for dry skin?
Creams are thicker and seal moisture in better, so they suit very dry skin and night-time use. Lotions are lighter and suit dry skin in summer or under makeup. Many people use CeraVe Moisturising Lotion For Dry to Very Dry Skin in the day and CeraVe Moisturizing Cream for Dry to Very Dry Skin at night. For cracked patches on lips, cheeks or hands, CeraVe Advance Repair Ointment 88ml works as a thin protective layer.
Which face wash is best for dry skin?
Use a cream, milk or soft gel cleanser that does not foam much. CeraVe Hydrating Cleanser For Normal to Dry Skin and CeraVe Cream to Foam Cleanser for Normal to Dry Skin 236ml keep the skin comfortable. In the morning, very dry skin can rinse with water only. Avoid hot water and scrubs, which strip oil and make flaking worse.
What is a winter routine for dry skin?
Morning
- Gentle cleanser or a water rinse.
- Hydrating toner or essence, such as COSRX Advanced Snail 96 Mucin Power Essence.
- Ceramide moisturiser.
- Moisturising sunscreen, such as Round Lab Birch Juice Moisturizing Sun Cream SPF50+ PA++++ 50ml.
Night
- Cleansing balm if you wore makeup, then a cream cleanser.
- Essence or hyaluronic acid serum from our hyaluronic acid collection.
- Rich cream; add a thin layer of ointment on the driest spots.
Looking for a Korean alternative to Nivea or Pond's cold cream?
If you like a rich cream for winter, try CeraVe Moisturizing Cream for Dry to Very Dry Skin or Beauty of Joseon Dynasty Cream 100ml. If you want something lighter for the face in daytime, try Purito Seoul Luminous Ceramide Moisturizer 100ml. Korean and derm-brand moisturisers for dry skin focus on barrier ingredients such as ceramides and panthenol.

Frequently asked questions
Which moisturiser is best for dry skin?
A ceramide-based cream is usually best for dry skin because ceramides help rebuild the skin barrier that keeps water in. CeraVe Moisturizing Cream suits very dry skin, Purito Seoul Luminous Ceramide Moisturizer is a lighter Korean option, and Purito Mighty Bamboo Panthenol Cream suits dry, sensitive skin.
Which moisturiser is best for dry skin in winter?
In winter, choose a richer cream and apply it on slightly damp skin, morning and night. CeraVe Moisturizing Cream and Beauty of Joseon Dynasty Cream work well for cold, dry weather. Add a thin layer of CeraVe Advance Repair Ointment on cracked areas, and avoid hot water when washing your face.
Is CeraVe Moisturizing Cream good for dry skin?
Yes. CeraVe Moisturizing Cream contains ceramides and hyaluronic acid in a rich, fragrance-free base, which is why it is popular for dry and very dry skin on the face and body. It can feel heavy on oily skin; if you find it too rich for daytime, use CeraVe Moisturising Lotion instead.
Which face wash is best for dry skin?
Dry skin needs a cleanser that does not strip natural oil. CeraVe Hydrating Cleanser is a creamy, non-foaming option, and CeraVe Cream to Foam Cleanser is a gentle alternative. Wash with lukewarm water, pat the skin dry and apply moisturiser within a minute or two.
Do I need sunscreen if I have dry skin?
Yes, every day. Dry skin still burns, tans and develops dark spots in Pakistan's strong sun. Choose a moisturising sunscreen such as Round Lab Birch Juice Moisturizing Sun Cream or Beauty of Joseon Relief Sun, which feel comfortable on dry skin and do not leave a white cast.
Why is my skin dry and flaky even after moisturiser?
Common reasons are a harsh face wash, hot water, over-exfoliating with scrubs or acids, or a moisturiser that is too light. Switch to a creamy cleanser, stop exfoliating for two weeks, apply cream on damp skin and add an essence underneath. If flaking stays, red or itchy, see a dermatologist.

Korean Skincare Pakistan is an authorised seller of major 40+ K-beauty brands and the authorised e-commerce retailer of the official distributor of L'Oréal Group in Pakistan for CeraVe and La Roche-Posay.
