February calls for comfort, moisture, and a little indulgence, especially when winter skin is feeling its most depleted. This month’s Picks of the Month are all about deep hydration and sensorial formulas that turn everyday care into a small ritual. From nourishing oils and dewy serums to ultra-hydrating gels and comforting lip balms, these favourites are designed to restore, protect, and help skin (and lips) glow through the coldest stretch of the season.

Chalet l’huile sauvage, A grounding ritual for skin and hair, this nourishing oil blends jojoba oil and olive squalane to hydrate, protect, and support the skin’s natural balance. The lightweight formula softens and smooths while enhancing hair’s natural shine. Infused with burnt cedar, vetiver, and juniper tar, the scent unfolds in warm, smoky layers. It’s housed in the brand’s signature glass bottle, finished with gold engraving by their glass artist.
Rose Deep Hydration Oil-Infused Serum
Fresh’s serum is a lightweight, oil-infused liquid serum designed to deliver 24-hour hydration for skin that looks dewy and plumped with moisture. With a simple shake, its dual phases blend into a silky texture that balances water and oil for immediate comfort. Infused with rosewater, damask rose, and lightweight nourishing oils, it deeply hydrates without leaving a greasy finish, revealing soft, luminous skin.
Moroccanoil Lip Balms
Moroccanoil expands into lip care with its newest launch: luxurious lip balms that deliver clinically proven hydration for up to 24 hours with no stickiness, just comfort and shine. Powered by argan oil, argan butter, peptides, and hyaluronic acid, the formula nourishes, smooths, and protects while leaving lips soft and healthy-looking.
