When Emma Stone shared her beauty secrets with Style.com, a bottle of grapeseed oil is the last thing we were expecting her to name check.

Yet The Help actress told the fashion website than she "pretty much smell[s] like a grape the whole time" thanks to her supermarket beauty essential.

Stone said, "I'm seriously allergic to everything. So I just use natural grapeseed oil from the grocery store on my face as a moisturiser. After the shower, I pat it on, and then I'll use it throughout the day and night".

It must be doing the trick - Stone's skin was glowing on the Golden Globes red carpet last weekend. The even better news is that her skincare secret can be bought for under a fiver. We're starting to like the Hollywood star even more...

Take a look below for our pick of the best moisturisers for dry skin.

Moisturisers for dry skin

Bobbi Brown Extra Repair Moisturising Balm
 Bobbi Brown's latest moisturiser is the ultimate skincare treat. Yes, it's in the higher price bracket but the rich, smooth texture soothes and hydrates within one application. However, the USP is its secret ingredient - clary sage. This helps the skin to retain its natural moisture levels - a helping hand during the winter months. £62 available from <a href="http://shopping.mydaily.co.uk/redirect.php?prodID=74658337&pID=7933&dest=http://www.awin1.com%2Fcread.php%3Fclickref%3Dlynku%26awinaffid%3D126863%26awinmid%3D3539%26p%3Dhttp%253A%252F%252Fwww%252Eselfridges%252Ecom%252Fen%252F%252F%252F%252F%252F%255F299%252D85076589%252DE7J801%252F" target="_blank">Selfridges</a>

Pond's Hydro-Nourishing Cream
 Pond's moisturising creams have become cult beauty products, particularly because of their affordable price tags.

Dr. Hauschka Rose Day Cream
 There aren't many moisturisers that contain over 1, 075 organic rose petals, however it's Dr. Hauschka's day cream claim to fame. This gives the moisturiser a light, floral scent and helps to reduce redness in the skin. It also encourages repair and protection. A must-have during the colder weather. £23.95 available from <a href="http://www.drhauschka.co.uk/home" target="_blank">Dr. Hauschka</a>
