Vitamin C is the hero element in this wash, which Dr. Sperling says is great for treating dry skin. "Replenishes moisture loss," she explained.

Derma-E's Hyaluronic Hydrating Cleanser is a winner, thanks to its moisture-rich ingreedients. "Hyaluronic acid is a humectant, meaning it pulls water to the skin and helps prevent moisture loss," says Dr. Sperling.

This cleanser is my all-time favorite and legions of fans across the internet agree. But don't take my word for it, just read the label: soy proteins, cucumber extract, and rosewater to soothe and balance. Plus, reviewers with dry skin agree that it's a must.

"It leaves my skin feeling clean and not dry or stripped of all oils like most other facial cleansers do," one costumer wrote. "If you have sensitive, dry, or combination skin, you cant go wrong with this as apart of your daily regimen."

Generally, we all take products names with a grain of salt, but Dr. Sperling says hydrating face washes really do just that. "Hydrating properties attract water and hold in moisture, making them moisturizing and nourishing to the skin," she said. And this face wash has the golden combination, which includes both glycerin and hyaluronic acid.

Reviews say this cleanser "removes makeup well without stripping or drying the skin" and that's all thanks to the added glycerin. According to Dr. Sperline, it's a key ingredient people with dry skin should look for, because it "draws moisture to the skin."
