Forty-six-year-old beauty editor shares favored SkinCeuticals products
Hey there! Let's talk about some fantastic SkinCeuticals goodies that have been my go-to's as I've hit mid-Life's milestone. My skin, it's had a wild ride, with those pesky expression lines rearing their heads more frequently than I'd like. But fear not, because these SkinCeuticals products have been my saviors!
My Top Picks
- The King of Peptides: P-Tiox, $148
- What's so great about it? This little wonder is brimming with peptides that tackle the formation and deepening of those lines we've all grown to know and loathe, making it the ultimate rescue squad for injectables. Plus, it's got PHA and niacinamide to even out skin tone and ease any redness.
- Sunscreen by the Sea: Clear Daily Soothing UV Defense Sunscreen SPF 50, $54
- Why I'm smitten? I've got delicate skin, and I can be sensitive to some sunscreens. This one, however, is a dream come true! It's free from avobenzone – my skin's sworn enemy – and offers broad-spectrum protection using chemically and mineral filters that keep my skin feeling calm and looking radiant.
- Tender Lip Love: Antioxidant Lip Repair, $46
- What's special? You know those dry, flaky lips? Yeah, I've got that... all the time. But this stuff works like a charm as a pre-balm step! It packs hydration-attracting ingredients like urea and hyaluronic acid, and antioxidants that help protect my delicate lip skin from environmental aggressors.
- Retinol for the Win: Retinol 1.0, $102
- What makes it stand out? SkinCeuticals calls this the "retinol face cream for advanced users." As someone who's dabbled with retinol for well over a decade, I can confidently say it's a must-have for smoother, more even skin. And for those new to retinol, start with a lower concentration first, like Retinol 0.3 or Retinol 0.5, and work your way up!
- Overnight Miracle Worker: Renew Overnight Dry, $78
- What sets it apart? As I inch closer to 50, dryness is a growing concern. This rich night cream is packed with alphahydroxy acids that help gently exfoliate while keeping skin hydrated. It's the perfect partner for a good night's sleep and a brighter, more radiant morning!
How my skin found its Zennith
When I was in my twenties, I gravitated towards products aimed at bright, glowing, youthful skin. But as the years have passed and I've encountered new skin challenges such as hyperpigmentation and dryness, I've had to adapt my skincare routine to address these concerns.
So, while the SkinCeuticals products that worked for me in my late twenties may not be the same ones that work now, I've found solace in these newer offerings that have helped transform my skin and keep it looking youthful and vibrant.
And, not to brag, but I've got all the beauty editors gushing about my glow, so I think I'm doing something right!
