In need of a little extra exfoliation? You might want to try out a peel like the Drunk Elephant Sukari Baby Facial (a product that's fast-approaching cult status). Designed to be used on a weekly basis, it offers a pretty major perk-me-up for your skin.
This night cream is so good at what it does — it hydrates and smooths skin like you wouldn't believe. It works fast, diminishing the appearance of, well, pretty much everything: dark spots, pores and even fine lines.
Here's another great gentle retinol option. Since it's a granactive retinoid, it's actually a bit less potentially irritating to your skin, as retinol products can be for some. The fact that it's delivered along with lightweight, hydrating squalane (another ingredient you should look into adding to your routine) also makes it an attractive pick.
When people tell you how much vitamin C helps with hyperpigmentation and scarring, they're not exaggerating. This serum makes fast work of acne scars, while also adding in moisture (not to mention a cheery aesthetic).
This is one of those skin care products that sneaks up on you. At first it seems like a nice enough, soothing and hydrating serum, but over time you'll start to notice an overall improvement in the texture/brightness of your skin. And before you know it, it'll become a must-have staple (boy, was Sephora genius when they made this one of their birthday gifts last year).
