Dry Skin in Winter… Us Too

Hydration Heroics That Save Your Skin All Season

Cold air, indoor heat, and biting winds can leave skin feeling tight, dull, and dehydrated fast. If your makeup suddenly looks less smooth or your glow disappears by noon, winter dryness is likely the culprit.

The fix? A hydration-first routine that locks in moisture, refreshes skin, and keeps makeup looking flawless. From a chilled setting spray trick to hyaluronic acid–infused finishing powder, these Laura Mercier hydration heroes are designed to help dry winter skin look fresh, plump, and perfectly set.

Hydration Meets Shine Control

Translucent Loose Talc-Free Setting Powder Ultra-Blur

How? Infused with Hyaluronic Acid, this blurring icon hydrates skin while controlling shine.

Powder and dry skin don’t usually get along, but we've changed that. This ultra-blurring setting powder delivers a soft-focus finish while helping skin retain moisture, making it ideal for winter makeup routines.

Hyaluronic acid attracts and holds hydration, which means skin stays comfortable, smooth, and balanced throughout the day. The result is shine control without that dry, powdery look.

Why it’s a winter must-have:

  • Hyaluronic acid makes the powder comfortable for all skin types, including dry skin
  • Blurs the look of pores and fine lines
  • Sets makeup without emphasizing dryness

Translucent Hydrating Setting Spray Ultra-Blur

Keep setting spray in the fridge for a rejuvenating experience that keeps your look in place.

Here’s your winter skin-saving trick: refrigerate your hydrating setting spray. Cooling the mist before application helps refresh tired-looking skin, reduce the appearance of puffiness, and instantly revive makeup without disrupting it.

Using a hydrating setting spray for dry skin is essential during winter months, when moisture loss can make makeup settle into fine lines. Chilling it takes the experience to the next level — especially first thing in the morning or after a long day.

Why it works for dry winter skin:

  • Hyaluronic Acid moisturizes skin for all-day comfortable wear
  • White Lily Extract soothes skin
  • Sets makeup while maintaining a natural, skin-like finish
