Starface Moisturizer and Face Wash Review With Photos
While each product featured is independently selected by our editors, we may include paid promotion. If you buy something through our links, we may earn commission. Read more about our Product Review Guidelines here. As someone who spends a lot of time outdoors (mostly because I can’t stand being cooped up inside), skincare is always top of mind. Between SPF, moisturizers, retinols for fine lines, vitamin C serums to tackle sunspots, and pimple patches for that time of the month, I’ve got a routine for just about everything. After training for a marathon through the depths of a Boston winter, I really started to notice just how much my skin…

Sunday Riley Brightening Vitamin C Moisturizer Review
While each product featured is independently selected by our editors, we may include paid promotion. If you buy something through our links, we may earn commission. Read more about our Product Review Guidelines here. It’s almost summer, and here in California it’s starting to warm up, which means it’s time for me to switch out my skin care to more lightweight options. I have sensitive skin, so my routine is pretty simple, and I only use a few products. A nonnegotiable in my everyday routine is vitamin C because I love the brightening and plumping effect the ingredient gives my skin. Using Sunday Riley’s vitamin C serum was the first…

Rhode Skin Barrier Butter Review: See Photos
While each product featured is independently selected by our editors, we may include paid promotion. If you buy something through our links, we may earn commission. Read more about our Product Review Guidelines here. When it comes to beauty products, I’d describe myself as hard to impress. Occasionally, I’ll find a hair product I love that will work its way into my routine, and every few months, a new makeup product will find itself on my vanity. When it comes to skin-care products, though? Good freaking luck. I have dry, acne-prone skin, and I rarely add new things into my rotation unless they are practically life-changing. The fact is, with…

16 Best Tinted Moisturizers of 2024
While each product featured is independently selected by our editors, we may include paid promotion. If you buy something through our links, we may earn commission. Read more about our Product Review Guidelines here. Understatement of the century: finding base makeup that’s actually comfortable isn’t exactly easy. Most foundations can feel heavy, which is especially frustrating during the warmer months, which is why tinted moisturizer is such a worthy alternative. It’s perfect for when you want a “my skin but better” look because it’s usually lightweight yet effective, featuring sheer-to-medium coverage for a natural finish. And beyond that, many of them utilize skin-loving and protective ingredients like hyaluronic acid for…

If you buy something through our links, we may earn commission. Read more about our Product Review Guidelines here. Before we dive in, I want to give an explanation of what “glass skin” means to me. On the internet, searches for glass skin typically produce ultra-filtered, overly lit videos of impossibly baby-shiny skin. Sure, my skin might look like that under a high-volt ring light, but how it presents IRL is what matters to me. For my purposes, the term (which was made popular by Korean…

Best Face Moisturizers 2024 For All Skin Types
Every editorial product is independently selected by our editors. If you buy something through our links, we may earn commission. Whittling down the perfect face cream is a little like online dating: the options can feel, at times, overwhelming; the quality is, well, inconsistent; and at the end of the day, you may want different things than the person swiping next to you. (To be clear: that’s OK.) The truth is, the world of skin care isn’t meant to be one-size-fits-all, so the solution becomes to look at your skin’s specific needs — Is it dry? Prone to breakouts? More sensitive than a toddler at bedtime? — and then pick…

14 Best Body Lotions and Body Butters
Every editorial product is independently selected by our editors. If you buy something through our links, we may earn commission. If there’s one beauty product that most people we speak with are too lazy to use, it’s body lotion. But here’s the thing: you need to moisturize your entire body, all year, but especially during the cold winter months when many of us are more prone to dry skin. Just like the face, our body gets dry, flaky, and — in extreme cases — cracked when it’s not properly hydrated. But with so many body lotions, butters, creams, and oils on the market, it’s hard to know where to start…

If you buy something through our links, we may earn commission. My skin-care and makeup routines are geared toward making my skin look as glowy (and healthy) as possible. From layering serums so my skin looks like a glazed doughnut to ultra-dewy primers, I’m open to trying just about anything. So, when I heard that Ole Henriksen was adding a brightening vitamin C moisturizer to its cult-favorite Truth Collection, I was immediately intrigued. Riva Barak, the VP of product and technical development for Kendo Brands, Ole Henriksen’s parent company, explained that the…

Shiseido Vital Perfection Uplifting Firming Cream Review
Every editorial product is independently selected by our editors. If you buy something through our links, we may earn commission. As a beauty editor who tests countless new products a year, I’ve seen some pretty outlandish product claims made. Due to the unregulated guidelines, brands are free to claim something as “clean” or say it “yields instant results” without having to prove these statements with hard facts. Not only does that make it tricky to decipher who is telling the truth, but it also makes it time-consuming to test products that don’t deliver what they promise. This is why I was so excited when I heard Shiseido, a Japanese brand…

If you buy something through our links, we may earn commission. When it comes to skin-care products, I prioritize texture above all else. (Alright, that’s a slight exaggeration since ingredients are crucial too, but you get the point). When a product feels luxurious on my skin, it’s easy for me to use it daily. Conversely, if the texture is off, the product will likely gather dust on my shelf. Having experimented with countless bestselling skin-care products over the years, I’ve discovered that Cosrx offers one of the most texturally delightful product lines…
