Let’s start with the the iconic Clinique Moisture Surge 100H Auto-Replenishing Hydrator. This gel-cream powerhouse is basically the skincare equivalent of drinking several full Stanley cups of water, thanks to a blend of glycerin, hyaluronic acid, and aloe, which work in tandem to hydrate, soothe, and plump. Plus, the gel is super lightweight and flawlessly blends into skin without leaving behind an oily residue, health writer and editor Jessie Van Amburg says.

“Don’t let the thin, light texture fool you,” Van Amburg says. “This baby is potent. The name ‘moisture surge’ isn’t for nothing. It’s deeply hydrating yet gentle—which is good for my sensitive AF skin.” Translation? It’s a foolproof fit for anyone who wants long-lasting hydration without the sticky, heavy feeling of traditional creams.

Van Amburg’s biggest qualm with the OG? That it didn’t contain SPF. Enter: Moisture Surge Broad Spectrum SPF 28 Sheer Hydrator. It combines the same lightweight hydration Van Amburg loves about the original with built-in sun protection. Think of it as your multi-tasking morning moisturizer—it absorbs quickly, layers well under makeup, and shields your skin from harmful UV rays. And, the sheer finish means no chalky white cast, making it ideal for all skin tones.

What makes this duo a true winter skincare MVP, though, is how seamlessly both products will fit into your routine. Use the SPF Sheer Hydrator to lock in moisture and protect your skin before heading out for the day, then let the Replenishing Hydrator work its magic overnight. Together, they’ll create a 24/7 hydration system that will help keep your skin glowing all winter long.
