SkinCeuticals
SkinCeuticals, founded by a doctor and beloved by dermatologists, has ruled supreme for over 25 years. With a strong commitment to science- and research-backed skincare, SkinCeuticals, according to the brand, pioneered the introduction of cosmeceuticals, which are products considered on the cutting edge between cosmetics and pharmaceuticals.
Surprisingly, the brand is perhaps best known for a legendary, hot dog-smelling product: the C E Ferulic Serum, which is adored by both the general public and seriously impressive dermatologists. Since its introduction in 2005, it has consistently ranked as the best vitamin C on the market, earning numerous awards and accolades for its liquid gold-like formula.
The Triple Lipid Restore 2:4:2 cream comes in a close second in terms of accolades and prestige. The name refers to the formula's main ingredients, which are 2% pure ceramides, 4% natural cholesterol, and 2% fatty acids. The legendary moisturizer strengthens the skin barrier and visibly improves the smoothness, pores, and radiance of aging skin.
