Trending Skincare Products
Skincare is a long-standing hot topic with a recent focus on creating the perfect skincare routine. The industry is becoming more innovative, with new brands regularly popping up on our social feeds and in the stores.
Today’s new brands offer low-end to high-end products, and it can be difficult determining which products or ingredients do what. Here are 4 trending products that are currently making waves:
The Ordinary Glycolic Acid 7% Toning Solution
Chemical exfoliants are having their moment! A chemical exfoliant, which you leave on your face, is different from a physical exfoliant, like a scrub, which you wash off. This specific product is said to offer mild exfoliation that may improve skin radiance and skin texture. It also contains aloe vera, which soothes the skin.
Sunscreen
A staple in most skincare routines and we all likely have our favorites, but any brand will do as long as you remember to apply enough and reapply. It’s recommended to use a sunscreen along with a moisturizer, not just a moisturizer with sunscreen. A fan favorite is SunBum with SPF50 unbum with SPF 50, and try the Tarteguard 30 Powder Sunscreen for easy reapplication over makeup later in the day.
Naturium Quadruple Hyaluronic Acid Serum
Hyaluronic acid is known for its hydrating properties and this product features 4 different molecular weights for deep hydration. It works for all skin types, and pairs well with other ingredients like retinol.
Paula’s Choice 2% BHA Liquid Exfoliant
A cult favorite and another chemical exfoliant this product features salicylic acid, a popular acne-fighting ingredient. This product claims to unclog pores, smooth wrinkles, and brighten your skin tone, and is safe enough to use twice daily.
While these fan favorites are popular products, please do your own research before buying, and consult a dermatologist for major skin issues. All descriptions or claims from these products come from their own product page.
