Splurge: Emepelle Serum, $175
It's a good sign when a dermatologist can't wait to try a particular product. Such is the case with Dr. Jessie Cheung — a board-certified dermatologist based in Chicago — and this expensive serum by Emepelle. "I was waiting to get my hands (and face) on this moisturizer when I heard that it was coming out because it's the first moisturizer that targets the hormone receptors in aging skin. Estrogen is essential to maintaining your skin's collagen and moisture, and Emepelle also has skin brighteners and antioxidants," she says. "I love it because I see the glow and hydration it gives my skin. You can start using Emepelle in your 30s; it's great for anyone who wants to prevent or treat dull, dry skin, or fine lines and laxity."

Save: Vanicream Moisturizing Lotion, $13.50
Like CeraVe, many dermatologists like Vanicream because its formulas are free of the most commonly known irritants and allergens. "The Vanicream Moisturizing Lotion can be applied anywhere on the body, and it's not greasy and won't clog pores," says Dr. Cheung. "I love it because it's easy to spread, absorbs quickly, doesn't smell, and it comes with a pump so my kids can apply it to themselves. It can be used for all skin types — even the most sensitive skin."
