Miranda Kerr is known for many things, including being a Victoria’s Secret Angel, being the founder and CEO of Kora Organics, and being a health and wellness devotee. This list is made all the more impressive when you consider she’s juggled it all with motherhood. (She’s a parent to three boys.) So yeah, you could say that Kerr knows a thing or two about committing to little moments of self-care in the midst of a demanding day. On the eve of her 40th birthday, I caught up with the multi-hyphenate to talk about all things skincare, health, and wellness. And let me tell you—Kerr just might be my new beauty icon. She approaches life, and her routine, with quiet confidence and lighthearted humor. Ahead, learn all about Kerr’s newest product, which just so happens to be the world’s first certified-organic retinol alternative (but more on that in a minute). Plus, see every product she uses in her daily skincare routine, the easy things she does to ground herself in the midst of chaos, and the lessons she’s learned throughout the last decade.
Kerr recently launched a serum that acts as a natural alternative to retinol. Translation? It promises to do all the things retinol does—plump fine lines and wrinkles, smooth texture, and even skin tone—without the irritation that’s often synonymous with the powerhouse ingredient.
Instead of retinol, this serum is formulated with bakuchiol, alfalfa, and plant stem cells. Together, they firm the skin, target signs of aging, and defend against environmental stress. Here’s the kicker: It does all of these things without causing dryness, peeling, flakiness, and redness. In fact, it’s so gentle that it can be used both morning and night to speed up results.
“I really want to change the narrative of organic skincare being less effective because I think that’s a bunch of BS, especially knowing that there are 60% more antioxidants in a certified-organic ingredient,” Kerr says. “We have a lot of customers with sensitive skin, and I myself have sensitive skin. I’m super proud that this is the first certified-organic retinol alternative that’s ever been launched.”
For Kerr, like for so many of us, skincare is part of a self-care routine. Along with her go-to Kora Organics products, Kerr counts on little rituals to keep her calm and centered throughout her day, which usually starts before the sun rises. “I wake up between 5 and 5:30, so I’m up for an hour to an hour and a half before the kids get up,” she says. “I really value that time in the morning. I try so hard to not check my email and all that and just go into my routine for myself, whether that is doing a workout in my bedroom or doing a 20-minute meditation.” “I’ll do my dry body brushing, which I love to wake me up and stimulate circulation,” she continues. “I’ll hop in the shower and do my skincare routine and make sure that I’m ready for the day … like I’ve given back to myself for the day before it starts.”
After dry-brushing, Kerr heads to the kitchen for celery juice, which she drinks every morning. “I prep the juice the night before. I make sure that I cut and clean it, so in the morning, I just have to quickly make it fresh,” she says. “It’s a bit overwhelming when you’ve got three kids running around. You’re trying to make breakfast, and you’re also trying to make celery juice. … It’s too much. The celery juice helps me with energy.”
Kerr continues to incorporate moments of self-care throughout the day by carrying a rose quartz crystal, burning palo santo (“You burn the palo santo, and it resets your whole energy”), and using the Theragun to relieve tight muscles. “I’ll often get it out of my bag—I’m a big bag lady—and do it for like five minutes,” she says.
She also sticks to herbal tea in an effort to avoid too much caffeine. “I love lemon balm tea with honey,” she says. “Growing up in Australia, my parents were like, ‘Let’s have a cup of tea!’ But those cups of tea add up to a lot of caffeine if you’re having black tea. I love lemon balm because it’s soothing and good for the digestive and nervous systems.”
It’s not just tangible products that Kerr counts on to keep herself well. In true holistic fashion, she also focuses on her mindset. “We can look outside and say, ‘I can’t believe it’s raining again.’ Or we can be like, ‘I love the rain. We really needed this. It feels so cozy.’ It’s our perspective, and only we can change that. If we change our perspective and we change our mindset, we can really change ourselves at the end of the day. We can [be] better. We can feel more vibrant and feel more alive.”
On the cusp of a landmark birthday, I suspected Kerr had been reflecting on her 30s, and I was curious how her habits and perspectives might have changed. “Sleep is more important to me now than ever. That’s probably because… well, having kids. My husband and I would rather go to bed early, cuddle up, and wake up early with the kids, so that’s definitely changed. I’m also more committed to exercise as I’m getting older, and strength training is something I’ve gotten into,” she says. “I used to be more of a yoga and Pilates girl, but I can do both because, as you age, your muscles just aren’t the same. I’m just trying to keep my skin and my muscles strong and also try to be as healthy as I can. At the same time, I think it’s important to have fun, and the more gentle and kind you are with yourself, the more it reflects in your whole energy.”
I also suspected that she might even have some advice to offer those who are soon entering a new stage of life, and I was right. “The age of 27 to 30 is when you’re going through your Saturn return,” she says. “That’s when I always say to people that it might feel like a lot at the time, but it’s such an incredible time to let go of whatever is not serving you and step into the new that’s coming. It’s almost like everything gets turned upside down at that point, and then new things come. You’ll notice, between 27 and 30, there’ll be different shifts in people, whether they completely change jobs or move countries or move houses. … At the time, it might have felt really overwhelming, but they realize it was always for the better. I always say brace yourself for that.” As for the biggest lesson she learned during her 30s, Kerr says it was learning to ask questions and to ask for help. “I grew up in a little country town in Australia,” she says. “It wasn’t a normal thing to reach out to people and be like, ‘Can you help me?’ I didn’t want to impose on other people and their time. I wanted to do it all on my own, but it’s important to realize you can’t do it all on your own. It’s important to ask for help. My husband taught me that. When we’re younger, we feel like we have to know it all and it would be silly to ask that question, but no, if you don’t understand, there’s no point in pretending as you do. Just ask, ‘Can you explain that?’” Kerr sums it up so succinctly: “Realize that, no matter what, there are going to be challenges in your life. It doesn’t matter who you are or where you’re from. It’s all part of growing. Embrace those challenges as opportunities to grow and learn. Don’t sweat the small stuff.”
“What’s in there aren’t only incredible ingredients to cleanse your skin in a gentle way, but I’m really all about the sensorial benefits. It has peppermint essential oil to prevent the overproduction of sebum and also to uplift you. It also has palo santo to clear your energy. I use that in the morning. It’s a good wake-up call,” she says.
“At night, I pretty much do the same thing, but I wash my makeup off with the Milky Mushroom Cleanser, which is a whole experience in and of itself,” Kerr says. “It’s an oil-based cleanser. When you’re cleansing your skin, you’re cleansing your spirit. It’s filtered through and touches upon clear quartz crystals to cleanse your energy. At the end of the day, it’s a really good makeup remover.”
This mask-scrub hybrid is one of Kerr’s all-time favorite products, and she uses it every other day to slough away dry skin and smooth and brighten her complexion.
“It invigorates your skin and your senses. There’s a little aquamarine crystal in the bottom, so it’s very soothing energetically as well as for your skin,” Kerr says.
In the morning, Kerr layers this vitamin C serum underneath the Plant Stem Cell Retinol Alternative Serum. “It’s a 12% vitamin C serum. It was the first certified-organic vitamin C serum in the world. It contains kakadu plum from Australia. My mum would always give me kakadu plum powder for the vitamin C benefits,” she says.
At night, Kerr uses this AHA Resurfacing Serum in place of the aforementioned vitamin C serum. It targets enlarged pores, dark spots, and uneven texture with a blend of AHAs, BHA, and ferments.
Kerr applies the new serum both morning and night.
In the morning, Kerr uses this lightweight moisturizer, which has green algae, alpine rose, and green tea.
At night, Kerr chooses this moisturizer, which includes turmeric, licorice, noni fruit, microalgae, and desert-date oil to boost moisture and visibly plump skin.
Twice a day, Kerr seals in her moisturizer with this antioxidant-rich face oil.
With 5.5% active vitamin C, this eye cream brightens, firms, and reduces signs of aging.
Kahai oil, rosehip oil, and tomato fruit hydrate, soothe, and firm the skin.
The final step in Kerr’s nighttime routine is to apply a thin layer of this sleeping mask. “It seals everything in. You put a light layer on your skin, and it dries and locks all the moisture in. It doesn’t rub off on your pillow, and you wake up in the morning, and your skin is so plump and dewy,” she says.
When it comes to finding the best sunscreens on the market, beauty editors don’t mess around. After all, there are a lot of factors that determine whether a sunscreen will become a permanent part of your routine or not. The formulation of it is absolutely key. Does it leave a whitecast? Will it irritate acne-prone or sensitive skin? Does it pair well with makeup? Luckily, beauty editors are here to answer all of the above burning questions. Rest assured, we give a lot of sunscreens a test drive every month so we can confidently recommend a few options that work for everyone.
Like I said above, a key thing I know many makeup wearers consider when buying an SPF is if it will mix well with other products like primer, foundation, or a skin tint. It’s the second thing I test for after seeing if it irritates my skin at all (a necessary step when you have sensitive, acne-prone skin). If you’re in a similar spot and need some recs, you’ve come to the right place. I asked beauty editors to share the best sunscreens to wear under makeup that suit every skin type. Keep reading below for all our favorites.
When used correctly, tretinoin can help with everything from uneven texture, acne, fine lines, and dark spots. Those with dry skin, however, might tolerate lotion formulas of tretinoin, such as the prescription brands Altreno and Arazola, Marcus says. She also suggests slowly working your way up to daily use when using any form of retinoid.
“Using tretinoin two or three nights a week is a good idea. Then work up to nightly applications as your skin gets used to it,” she says. “Tretinoins—and, in fact, all retinoids—make skin more sun sensitive, so it’s more important than ever to remember your daily sunscreen. Retinoids should not be used by pregnant people. They should be applied at night, not during the day, as they are not photostable and therefore their efficacy is decreased by UV rays.”
Below you’ll find the moisturizers Marcus recommends using with tretinoin.
BB cream is one of those beauty items we didn’t even know we needed until a few years ago but now couldn’t live without. It’s the perfect middle ground between full-coverage foundation and ultra-sheer tinted moisturizer. It’s also a must-have if your makeup mood changes with the wind the way ours often does.
While there are tons of iconic BB cream formulas on the market from more high-end brands, we’ve learned that some amazing options are available at the drugstore. We have to admit that some of those drugstore mainstays are seriously lacking in the shade-range department, but that being said, there are still some solid selects for those who want to save their coins while pursuing a natural-looking glow.
Ahead, check out the 12 best drugstore BB creams for every skin concern that will save your complexion with a quick swipe.
Melissa Meyers is a Los Angeles–based influencer with a focus on beauty, style, travel, and wellness. Her blog, The Glow Girl, aims to empower women to embrace the best version of themselves, age gracefully, and cultivate a glow from the inside out. She also happens to be a 58-year-old with a passion for beauty. Below, hear from Meyers on her favorite nontoxic self-tanning products to keep her skin sun-kissed, healthy, and glowing all winter—and beyond!
“I love sporting a healthy glow all year round, and a great tan magically seems to improve the tone, texture, and color of the skin while also helping to mask any imperfections. Thankfully, gone are the days where you had to bask in the sun for hours to look like a bronzed goddess or use a smelly, toxic self-tanner that makes your skin look like a roast turkey.”
Self-tanner is hit or miss. If you use the right formula, you’ll end up with an all-over glow. If you use the wrong formula, you’ll end up with patchiness, streaks, and an unnatural hue (although your application technique may have something to do with it, too). That’s why self-tanning can be scary—especially when it comes to your face. After all, it’s pretty hard to disguise a bad self-tan if it’s front and center.
Luckily, we live in a time when brands are creating self-tanning products specifically for the face, so we don’t have to risk the same faux pas that we did in the past (is there anyone else out there who used to tan their face by rubbing a body mitt all over it and hoping for the best? Or was that just us?). These days, there are drops and mists and more, all of which will ensure a seamless, glowing result. Keep scrolling to see the 16 best face self-tanners on the market.
As a beauty editor, one of the major privileges of my job is getting to talk to celebrities. Not only that, but I get to talk to stars about beauty products, which is basically a dream come true. Many celebrities have their own brands, but I live for celebrities telling me what products they actually use and love in their daily lives.
Many celeb favorites are available at none other than Sephora, which is basically my beauty product mecca. Right now, Sephora is having its annual Spring Savings Event, which means that you can find celeb-loved products at a discount. If you’re a Rouge member, the savings start today. Here’s everything you need to know to save: From April 14 to April 24, Rouge members get 20% off their purchases.

Keep reading for the products celebs have shared their love for with our editors that you can get at a discount right now at Sephora.
If you’re anything like me, you’ve been a Sephora Insider for, well, forever. You probably also wait all year for the Sephora Savings Event. This year, in preparation, I spent three (yes, three) total hours shopping at Sephora to find the best products across skincare, makeup, hair, and fragrance categories. You can call it an irresponsible use of time, but I call it research. I’m a beauty editor, and seeking out the best in beauty is quite literally part of my job.
On my most recent trip to Sephora, I walked the hallowed halls and found some seriously stellar items. I’m talking about a lightweight sunscreen that neither pills nor leaves a white cast. I’m talking about a high-pigmented lip color that feels like butter on your lips. And I’m talking about a hair mask that leaves your strands bouncy and moisturized without residue. As I said, these products are stellar.
The best part? They’re on sale. Rouge members receive 20% off plus early access to the sale on April 14. VIB members receive 15% off starting April 18. Finally, Beauty Insiders receive 10% off starting April 18. Use the code SAVENOW at checkout.
Every spring, I look forward to Sephora‘s Spring Savings Event. For a beauty lover, it’s akin to Christmas as you can snag your absolute favorite Sephora beauty products for less only a few times a year. This sale is the perfect time to take the plunge on splurges you wouldn’t normally buy at full price.
If you’re a Rouge member, you get first dibs on the sale (along with an amazing discount). Here’s everything you need to know to save: From April 14 to April 24, Rouge members get 20% off their purchases.
But Rouge members aren’t the only ones able to save. From April 18 to April 24, VIB members can take 15% off their purchases, and Insider members can take 10% off. Plus,all Beauty Insiders, regardless of tier, can receive 30% off Sephora Collection products during their designated sale dates. Enter the promo code SAVENOW at checkout.
This year, I’m prioritizing products I love but wouldn’t pay full price for as I’m trying to save as much money as possible. That includes things like cult-favorite hair tools, makeup products I’ll reach for every day, and fragrances I know I’ll use for years to come. Read on for my unbiased picks below.
Sobelman also says those dry skin types will want to seek out hydrating and nourishing ingredients like hyaluronic acid, ceramides, and replenishing lipids. “Ceramides and lipids make up both the outer layer of our skin and the extracellular matrix—the solution between our skin cells holding it together,” she shares. “Both can be found in moisturizers and are fantastic at locking in hydration (like hyaluronic acid) and supporting the skin’s barrier. Most sensitive skin showing signs of type one rosacea has an impaired barrier and needs more ceramides and lipids to reduce that pesky redness through the cheeks.”
If you’re shopping for an organic moisturizer and want to know what other natural ingredients to consider, master esthetician and Flora Mirabilis founder Jordan LaFragola has you covered. “If you have acne-prone skin, you want to look for ingredients with a low comedogenic rating, meaning they are not pore-clogging,” she says. “Almond, apricot kernel, argan, grapeseed, hemp, pomegranate seed, sacha inchi, and safflower are great choices. You also want to look for antibacterial and anti-inflammatory ingredients, such as cedarwood, frankincense, lavender, and tea tree. Ingredients rich in linoleic fatty acids will restore your skin’s barrier, making it look plump and youthful. Fruit seed oils are excellent sources, and sacha inchi has one of the highest levels of linoleic fatty acids of any plant oil. Ingredients with brightening and resurfacing properties are also key. Sandalwood is a particularly great anti-aging oil, as are Frankincense, rose, apple cider vinegar, and vitamin C.”

Although I love writing and learning about beauty, I won’t pretend to be an expert on all skin types—that’s what I turn to the pros for. What I can do, though, is speak about my experience with sensitive, acne-prone skin. If you also have it, then you know what a giant pain in the you-know-what it can be. My skin has generally tolerated dermatologist-loved ingredients like vitamin C pretty well, but I know that that’s not the case for everyone. If you do tend to react to high concentrations of the ingredient, then you’ve come to the right place. You can still receive the benefits of this powerful brightening agent without the irritation.
You may want to try a facial oil that contains vitamin C-rich ingredients or one that has ascorbic acid at a lower concentration (10% or less) than some serums. I also want to note that that doesn’t mean you can’t use a vitamin C serum at all if you have sensitive skin—derms have a few tips in that regard. “While those with sensitive skin can still consider vitamin C oils, those with sensitive skin should try to avoid heavy fragrance as this can be irritating on the skin,” says board-certified dermatologist Marisa Garshick, MD. “Oils may help to nourish and soften the skin, especially if containing ingredients like squalane. Other considerations when using vitamin C with sensitive skin are the type of vitamin C and the concentration. Certain types of vitamin c such as pure L-ascorbic acid may be more irritating on the skin and often higher concentrations of vitamin C may be more irritating as well, while more stable formulations like THD ascorbate may be preferred for sensitive skin as they are less irritating.”
According to board-certified dermatologist Brendan Camp, MD, vitamin C oils may also be helpful for those who have dry or dehydrated skin since they can provide a heftier dose of moisture. Whatever your skin type, combining vitamin C and skin-nourishing oils can be beneficial. If you’re interested in trying one out for yourself, keep scrolling. Derms shared a few of their top picks and I threw in a few of my own favorites.
I know I’m way behind on the trend, but luckily, trying Korean beauty products never goes out of style. My fellow Who What Wear editors have helped a lot in terms of where to start—they’ve recommended everything from the best Korean skincare to the best Korean makeup brands, and I couldn’t be more grateful for their insight. Trying a new beauty category can be overwhelming, but thanks to their recs, I’ve narrowed down my K-beauty favorites.
I’ve found that Korean beauty brands excel in one skincare category in particular: moisturizers. Not only are their ingredient lists pretty impressive, but many won’t cost you more than $35—a welcomed feat when you could use a wallet-friendly moisturizer. On top of that, there isn’t a day that goes by where I don’t see a new K-beauty moisturizer blowing up on TikTok. There’s one in particular that the TikTok beauty community continues to rave about long after its release. Keep scrolling if you’re looking for a Korean moisturizer and could use a few recommendations. I’ve included some TikTok community faves along with a dermatologist’s picks.
Even though my beauty cabinet is currently overflowing, I simply can’t resist picking up more skincare—can anyone else relate? I feel like there’s always an exciting new product to discover or an old favorite to fall back in love with. At least, that’s what I’m telling myself to justify my most recent splurge at Skinstore. The site currently has over 5000 products on sale as a part of its Friends and Family event, so obviously, I had to partake. All you have to do is use the code FRIENDS for up to 30% off of applicable products.
In case you’ve never shopped here before, it’s basically a goldmine of prestigious, derm-recommended skincare. It has everything from innovative clinical formulas to clean beauty favorites to best-selling classics to premium spa essentials. I perused the site and discovered countless products that I immediately added to my wish list, but I handpicked 14 that I’m the most excited about. I’ve been dying to try that NuFace Trinity + Trinity ELE Set ($382) that everyone keeps gushing about, so that’s first on the list. I also want to brighten my under-eyes, so the cult-favorite Triple Algae Eye Renewal Balm ($58) from Algenist made my list. And since my co-workers are always raving about the benefits of a good vitamin C serum, the BeautyStat Universal C Skin Refiner ($64) is obviously in my cart. Curious to see what else I can’t stop talking about? Keep scrolling.
For the daytime, Ross recommends a hyaluronic acid or a vitamin C product that provides deep hydration and triggers collagen production, respectively. SPF is super important for the daytime, too, as UV rays can put you at risk for skin cancer and can accelerate skin aging. Rhee suggests looking for prebiotic and probiotic ingredients like algae, xylitol, rhamnose, lactobacillus, vitreoscilla, and various ferments, which work together to balance your skin’s pH levels and strengthen the skin’s ability to fight against environmental pollutants.
And lastly, make sure your skincare is backed by science and that it does exactly what it’s supposed to do. “In order for a molecule to be effective, skincare ingredients need to be the right size to penetrate the epidermis and effectively absorb into the layers of the skin where it needs to be active,” Rhee says. “A lot of the molecules we know and love are inherently unstable, and if they aren’t stabilized through their formulation, all the dedication to your routine can go to waste because the active ingredients are unlikely to work as intended. This is also the case when you layer certain products. Some ingredients can destabilize and/or inactivate others.” Working with a dermatologist or other professional can help you figure out if the products you’re using are effective or not.
Take a look at some anti-aging creams the dermatologists and some of our editors recommend below.
If there’s one thing we know about Hailey Bieber, it’s that she’s always up-to-date on the latest beauty trends. Not only that, but many of her “get ready with me” TikToks feature the latest and greatest products in the beauty space (and no, she does not exclusively use products from her own brand, Rhode).
The brand founder and model has long favored a minimal getting ready routine. She’s basically the pioneer of “clean girl” makeup, and goes for products that enhance her features and give off a “no-makeup” vibe. In her latest get ready with me video, sandwiched between a few Rhode products and minimal makeup, we noticed Bieber reaching for one of the season’s buzziest new products—Kosas DreamBeam.
DreamBeam is joining the ranks of new-gen sunscreens that don’t feel like sunscreen. It’s a mineral-based formula that’s chock-full of ceramides and peptides to smooth and brighten skin and hyaluronic acid and allantoin to hydrate and soothe. Plus, unlike many mineral formulas, it doesn’t leave a white cast—its unique peachy tone cancels any whiteness, making it the perfect universal formula. Did I mention it’s waterproof? You can mimic Bieber and use DreamBeam on its own, but it also works double-duty as a makeup primer.
Co-founder and creative director of Westman Atelier, Gucci Westman, shared a bit about what makes the brand’s first venture into skincare unique. For starters, it’s truly an all-in-one serum packed with 12 active ingredients known to soften fine lines while dramatically boosting hydration levels and firmness within the skin.
“We worked with the leading skincare scientist in Korea who invented the multi-lamellar emulsion, the world’s first skin-like non-prescription formula to treat the skin barrier,” Westman shared. “With this technology, we were able to use 12 potent ingredients that work together to achieve a healthy skin barrier. The key ingredients are hyaluronic acid (four types) that delivers hydration continuously throughout the day and treats the skin barrier while strengthening it, niacinamide to even the skin tone, minimize pores, lighten pigmentation, smooth fine lines, and create plumper and juicy skin, and prickly pear cactus extract to sooth. Noni fruit [in the formula also] supports natural collagen [production], peptides smooth lines, and EGCG prevents premature skin damage.”
Westman, being a beloved industry makeup artist, also kept artistry in mind when creating this product. After all, it wouldn’t be a Westman Atelier product unless it worked well under makeup. What makes the perfect base for makeup, you ask? Hydrated, dewy skin and the skin activator offers it up on a silver platter. “I wanted to create something that had a meaningful effect on the skin that enters the dermis,” Westman says. “I loved this proprietary lamellar system formula where we could include several potent ingredients that don’t cancel each other out and work together. It creates a juicier, plumper finish to the skin that lasts the entire day.”
If you’re unsure where to start when it comes to serum shopping for oily skin, dermatologists have a few key ingredients they swear by. Board-certified dermatologist Brendan Camp, MD says vitamin C is a favorite, for starters. “Vitamin C is a skin care ingredient that can be used on most types of skin, including oily skin,” he says. “Finding a product that is lightweight and does not leave a thick residue is important when buying skincare for oily skin.” He also recommends a good oil-free moisturizer and salicylic acid. “Salicylic acid is a beta-hydroxy acid (BHA) that is hydrophobic, which allows it to penetrate deep in pores and flush them of excess oil and residue.”
Board-certified cosmetic dermatologist, Divya Shokeen, MD, FAAD recommends serums that contain retinol, and AHAs in addition to BHAs. “Retinoids help to reduce oil production, while AHAs and BHAs are great for reducing the appearance of pores,” she shares. Find a few of their recommended serums below along with some of our own favorites.
Caffeine is a wonderful ingredient. While many of us consider it a morning routine staple in the form of a delicious drink, according to dermatologists, it can actually do a whole range of incredible things for your skin, too. It’s particularly great if you struggle with things like dark circles, loose skin, and puffiness around the eye area.
Caffeine is a powerful antioxidant that can protect skin from free radical damage that can cause premature lines, skin sagging, and photo damage. According to board-certified dermatologist Brendan Camp, MD, it is also known to be a vasoconstrictor which means it causes the blood vessels to constrict or tighten, helping with sagging skin, discoloration, and fine lines.
I don’t know about you, but the above statement alone inspired me to web-surf for the best caffeine eye creams money can buy. Luckily for you, you won’t have to do too much surfing yourself—I asked Camp for a few of his favorites and found a few more options to choose from. Keep scrolling—there’s something for every budget.
Eye cream is a finicky thing. Sure, there are countless formulas out there that vow to fix every concern—whether that’s dark circles, puffiness, fine lines, or wrinkles—but as anyone who’s into skincare will surely tell you, it can be difficult to find one that actually delivers on its promises. So, yeah, I’ll say it: eye cream is basically the poster child for a skincare product that’s great in theory but can be disappointing in practice.
Then there’s the matter of price. There are so many luxury eye creams out there, and while many of them are effective and come highly recommended by beauty editors, sometimes, it’s nice to share some more budget-friendly recommendations. So that’s what we decided to do. Ahead, 5 beauty editors share their favorite high-end eye creams, followed by their favorite drugstore ones. The latter will provide real results without breaking the bank (thank us later).
I live and breathe all things beauty and skincare, so it probably comes as no surprise that I’m always chatting about my ride-or-die products with my friends and co-workers. One product that always comes up (both with my friends and here at Who What Wear) is the SkinCeuticals C E Ferulic. One of the hero ingredients in this beloved serum is Vitamin C, which has powerful brightening and anti-aging benefits. To celebrate this miracle ingredient, SkinCeuticals coined April 4 as Vitamin C Day. And now you can join the party with an exclusive offer from prestige skincare retailer Dermstore.
From March 24 to April 6, you can shop three limited-edition bundles, each starring C E Ferulic. I’m most excited for the Anti-Aging Refine and Smooth bundle, which brightens with C E Ferulic, hydrates with Triple Lipid Restore, and protects with Physical Fusion UV Defense Sunscreen. This is a heaven-sent combo for my sensitive, dry skin.
It gets even better. If you’re a member at Dermstore, you get double the points on SkinCeuticals products, which equates to 10% back on every dollar spent on this high-performance skincare. Achieving glowing skin and getting paid to shop? Yes, please. Keep scrolling to see the bundles and more editor-approved products from SkinCeuticals.
