Try: Retrouvé Nutrient Face Serum, $395

We weren't supposed to know about Retrouvé. As legend has it, Kiehl's heiress Jami Heddinger tasked some of the industry's best cosmetic chemists to develop a personal stash of the most potent, filler-free skin care around — and she spared no expense doing so. But after friends caught wind of what she had made (and wouldn't quit bugging her for a stash of their own), the brand was officially born.

While you don't have to travel in a heiress's circle to get your hands on the brand, it remains so under the radar that only those in the know (or paying attention to background details when people like Tracee Ellis Ross post Instagram Stories from their bathrooms) are keyed in to the spendy, but hyper-concentrated skin care line that includes a cleanser that Zoë Kravitz swears by and serum so nourishing, it doubles as a moisturizer.
