The Holiday Hydration Edit
These essential moisture-boosting products will help you and your besties slay the szn.
We all know the importance of hydration—it's the key to staying energized and keeping our body's organs functioning. But during the rush of the holiday season, things can get a lil hectic. Between shuttling from party to party and searching for the perfect gift for everyone on your list, it's easy to forget to take a moment to just *breathe* and sip some water.
That's why we curated a list of our favorite products that help hydrate inside and out—including the moisturizer that will keep you looking glowy AF all winter long (hello, Clinique Moisture Surge 100H Auto-Replenishing Hydrator). All these items also happen to make great gifts for people who don't go anywhere without a 40-ounce tumbler, or those who might need a reminder to keep their thirst, skin, and hair quenched.
This moisturizer is your secret weapon for skin that glows but never feels greasy. The oil-free gel-cream formula contains aloe bioferment, hyaluronic acid, and vitamins C and E, which work together to combat loss of moisture from every source: weather, pollution, blue light, airplane travel, you name it. Your skin will feel soothed from dryness in just three seconds of application, and the product promises a whopping 100 hours of hydration to follow.
With a water bottle this cute, chances are you'll never fall victim to dehydration again. It's leakproof, can be sipped with the built-in straw (or not), and comes in colorways to please any aesthetic.
These little packets help rehydrate you faster than water alone and pack three times more electrolytes than your average sports drink. Go for the variety pack to snag 10 of each flavor: fruit punch, lemon lime, and blood orange. Bonus: Hydrant's packets are made with zero artificial sweeteners or synthetic colors.
When the weather gets cooler, skin tends to lose moisture, and your sinuses might suffer from dryness, too. Cue: this humidifier, which gives serious spa vibes with its fine mist and color-changing lighting capabilities.
Say buh-bye to dry lips with this ultra-hydrating lip mask. It's full of lipids, shea butter, and ceramides, making it ideal to smooth and hydrate. Wear it as a primer to prep for lipstick or alone for a glowy lip look.
Your hair needs hydration too, and this styling cream can provide up to three days' worth of moisture and tamed flyaways. It also keeps hair protected from heat tools up to 450° F, so you can prevent further parching.
If the only way you'll drink your water is if it's sparkling, a SodaStream is actually a super-smart investment. Not only is it more budget-friendly in the long run than buying cans upon cans, but this Art model is surprisingly chic—we love the on-trend colors it comes in, as well as how it's perfectly petite and cordless.
A 12-pack of this 100 percent-pure, no-sugar-added coconut water is only $24—even less, if you sign up for a two- to six-week subscription deal. It's got naturally occurring electrolytes and comes in a lot of fun flavors, including pineapple, blueberry, and a sparkling option.
If you've been holding off on buying a juicer until you have more counter space, this compact and easy-to-clean model is at your service. It comes with its own recipe book to give you inspo for nourishing and delicious concoctions.
If your hair feels dry and brittle after showering no matter the products you use, your showerhead may be to blame. This good-looking and easy-to-install filtered option that you've been seeing on your feeds is srsly worth it. It clears out chlorine, metals, and other forms of gunk that could be stripping your hair and skin of moisture.
These silicone molds make the cutest ice cubes ever. Throw some herbs and cut-up fruit into the water or fill them with a mixer of your choice to level up your next batch of mocktails.
