According to Shari Marchbein, MD, FAAD, the benefits of cold cream vary, but most people use it as a gentle makeup remover that won’t strip the skin thanks to its potent hydration properties. “Moisturising your skin is essential to help keep it hydrated and to help counteract the appearance of fine lines and/or the signs of skin discolouration,” she tells us. “A suitable moisturiser like a cold cream can help prevent dryness, improve tone and texture, and protect the outer layer of the skin. Replenishing skin’s natural moisture balance by moisturising daily is important, as environmental factors such as severe weather and sun can dry your skin and make it look dull.”
Another benefit of cold cream? Its versatility! Marchbein explains that pretty much anyone can use cold cream, and it’s especially dreamy for people with sensitive, dry, or normal skin. “Cold cream can also be used on acne-prone skin as long as the oils in the formula are noncomedogenic,” she adds. Luckily, many of the top formulas on the market fit the bill and won’t block or clog pores after cleansing. If you want to check a product’s ingredients to see if it is, indeed, noncomedogenic, I love this tool that allows you to copy and paste an ingredient label to see if it passes the test.
