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.
Sick of concealer settling into your creases? This pale green eye cream is here to save the day. It's decadently hydrating, helping to reduce the appearance of fine lines and dark circles. Another bonus? Its creamy, emollient texture creates enough glow to double as a highlighter in a pinch.
Here's another lifesaver for your under-eye area: These hydrogel patches are dry, unlike most under-eye patches — but that doesn't make them any less effective. In fact, they stick like a treat and lock moisture in for a dewy, refreshed look.
