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).
Hey, as long as we're ditching foundation, why not ditch concealer while we're at it? Differin has been around for a while, but it only became available over-the-counter in the past couple years — and what a gift that was. Its star ingredient is adapalene, a powerful retinoid that makes it a dream for prevention of all forms of acne, while reducing inflammation and redness deep in pores.
You know how acne products can leave your face as dry as the Sahara? It's the reason why most people tend to recommend spot treatments over all-over face treatments. Well, this little niacinamide and zinc serum is different: It's soothing and hydrating as they come and it really does help keep calm redness and blemishes.
Here's another acne treatment that's basically a godsend. Each pack comes with three different sizes of patches, perfect for every size of blemish imaginable. This may be a bit gross to think about but they're especially good for zits you may or may not have picked/popped since they soak up oil while also acting as a protective barrier to speed up healing.
