Perhaps it’s saying Auf Wiedersehen to summer that has me reaching for German made skincare lately, so Dr. Hauschka is back in heavy rotation and ready to deliver much needed moisture between seasons. Driven by nourishing botanicals and essential oils, these natural formulas are some of the most iconic in the industry. With an overall aesthetic completely on point, nothing says you’re serious about your skin like a casual assortment of Dr. Hauschka products.
My go-to when I feel like seriously enhancing my cleansing ritual, the Dr. Hauschka Cleansing Cream revitalizes and refines dull skin while removing excess oil, dirt, and impurities. Somewhere between a cream and a balm, it contains calming and healing botanicals (Calendula, Chamomile, Anthyllis) and flecks of Almond Seed Meal that provides just enough grit for gentle manual exfoliation. The unique scent is a mash up of herbal and medicinal, and I happen to love it. Apply it to damp skin and massage it in gently for a few minutes and then rinse. If you practice ‘double cleansing,’ use this one for your first cleanse. $29 (50ml)
A real treat for skin that has to deal both with the outdoor cold and indoor heat, the Hydrating Mask is a must-have this time of year. Rich and creamy, it is loaded with Almond, Avocado and Jojoba Oils, Shea Butter, and Rose Wax and restores moisture in parched, dehydrated skin. Highly nourishing Quince Seed Extract instantly revives a dull, lackluster complexion and boosts radiance in just twenty minutes. It can be a great fix before an event this holiday season and to keep on hand during travel. $56 (30ml)
A true classic, and the secret, now exposed, behind J.Lo’s glow, the Rose Day Cream by Dr. Hauschka is one of the most universally embraced moisturizers on the market. Suitable for literally everyone, it soothes, nurtures, and protects the skin with Wild Rosehip Oil, Rose Petal Wax, St. John’s Wort, and Marshmallow Extract. Truly luxurious, the velvety texture sinks in immediately and works great under makeup during the day or as an intensive overnight treatment. Elegantly formulated, this ultra effective moisturizer is one of the more impressive holistic skincare options out there. Affordable, too! $43 (30ml)
Deceivingly lightweight, just a dab of the Daily Hydrating Eye Cream from Dr. Hauschka delivers an incredible punch of moisture. Packed with Rose Water, Shea and Mango Butters, Pineapple Extract and numerous plant oils, this ultra nourishing eye treatment feels pretty lush when applied on the delicate skin around the eyes. Beyond basic, it provides lasting hydration, firms, and keeps your concealer in place. Never heavy nor greasy, it absorbs immediately, plumping up pesky crow’s feet for a rested, alert appearance. The slim tube couldn’t be more travel friendly. $55 (.4 oz)
