Products They Love

4.9Gentle Clear Mattifying Acne Moisturizer

“It's great for oily skin. If you have oily skin, you're going to love it because it also has salicylic acid which is good at removing oil and trapping oil, but also it's great at actually treating acne in the process…”

4.9Cicaplast Baume B5+

“The barrier revive cream has just an incredible aesthetic. So not only does it give you a healthy skin barrier, decreases inflammation, balances out the microbiome, but also has a lot of other ingredients that just help the skin and they nail the aesthetics…”

4.8Universal Tinted Moisturizer SPF 46
4.9Mighty Melt Cleansing Balm
  • “It was really affordable. I feel like it was close to maybe $10 or less than $15. And it's just a really, really, really nice cleansing balm. Again, a bit on the softer side, but incredible at removing things without stripping the skin”
  • “I would say that one of my favorite cleansing balms that I've ever tried, and he's made his own. So, I mean, to say be able to say that to make a cleansing balm tailored towards your preferences and have another that you love and feel like is one of your favorites, definitely a good testimony”9:14–9:17

  • “This is another product that there's no ad spend behind. And again, it drives me nuts cuz I think it's such I I've said this product for three or four out of the last 5 years. I think this is the best acne moisturizer out there or at least one up”11:11–11:16

  • “Of all of the urea products that launched this year, one of the best, if not the best, is the 20% urea from Cetaphil”1:15–1:19
  • “They stabilize 20% urea which is actually very difficult to do. So you're going to get that moisturizing and the exfoliation benefit”2:02–2:07
  • “If you're somebody who has thickened elbows and knees that lead them to be darker, if you have dry cracked heels, this is going to be really beneficial for that. If you have ichthyosis vulgaris, this will be beneficial for that as well”2:10–2:13

4.6Peptide Skinjection Moisture Infusion Cream
  • “The cream and the serum both have 21 different types of peptides in it including ingredients like argirene and argirelox”13:17–13:24

  • “It is just a really interesting combination of ingredients and it's power packed with different types of peptides. And because of that, even though it's a little bit more pricey, it definitely makes our list of the year definitely”13:37–13:42

  • “It is effective. They have a lot of studies backing it up”12:16–12:18

4.8Minéral 89 48H Moisture Matte Sorbet
4.6Ceramide Ato Lotion
  • “Their body moisturizer. That gel is just absolutely phenomenal. So, you really can't get much like this over here. 12 oz. Really affordable product, cool looking pump, and feels amazing on the skin. If you're looking for like a lightweight body moisturizer for the summer, I'd check out the Illiyoon ceramide ato lotion”10:21–10:26
  • “Illiyoon similarly has married their whole lineup around these encapsulated ceramides like slow release long hydration. I think the core messaging around this one is 100 hours of hydration. So in theory, you only need to moisturize every 3 to 4 days. So this is one of my favorites, too”13:55–13:59

  • “They also added a peptide called pal pentipeptide 4”7:03–7:10
  • “The whole portfolio, the whole profile of the Olay product does certainly elevate it beyond just a simple retinol moisturizer combination”7:25–7:29

  • “If you really want like that soft appearing and soft feeling skin, I think that's where the Olay vehicle delivers”10:10–10:15

  • “Hate this packaging”4:44–4:46

  • “I would go with something like Remedy for Healthy Aging here”10:45–10:48
