but for those of us with oily or breakout-prone skin, choosing a cream
always feels like a risk. Will it clog our pores? Will it leave us
looking a bit
too glowy? Enter this lovely, light-as-air gel
moisturizer from Simple. It's formulated with softening glycerin,
nourishing vitamins and absolutely no oil, so our hydration comes
without a side of worry. (Simple Ultra-Light Gel Moisturizer, $10.99,

tandem or separately, the irritant-free cleanser and moisturizer
provide immediate relief from symptoms and build a barrier against
further dryness and discomfort with regular use. (Dove DermaSeries

he problem: Aging, sensitive skin
StriVectin

true — retinols are the gold standard of anti-aging skincare, shrinking
pores, smoothing fine lines and brightening skin like no other
ingredient. But what if they're simply too harsh for your sensitive
skin? Try this first-of-its-kind serum, which blends a high
concentration of retinol with a new technology that strengthens the skin
barrier. All the benefits, none of the irritation. (StriVectin-AR

by natural licochalcone, a skin-calming licorice root extract,
Eucerin’s Redness Relief series of products, which includes the Daily
Perfecting Lotion above, has been shown in studies conducted by the
brand to neutralize redness and leave skin calmed, soothed and protected
— a must-try for those with rosacea. (Eucerin Redness Relief

The problem: Dark and puffy under-eyes
CeraVe
The solution:
We clearly are not the only ones out there tired of using one product
to target dark circles and a second to deflate bags. CeraVe new Eye
Repair formula does both, brilliantly — without inflaming the sensitive
tissue around our eyes. Key ingredients include marine and botanical
extracts to fight darkness, hyaluronic acid to hydrate and smooth fine
lines and ceramides to strengthen and repair the skin barrier. (CeraVe

The problem: Hyperpigmentation
Aveeno
The solution:
When it was observed that soy workers in Asia had spotless, smooth
hands, it sparked a full-scale investigation into the healing potential
of this ingredient, which is now the foundation of Aveeno Active
Naturals Total Soy Complex. Used regularly, Aveeno Positively Radiant
Targeted Tone Corrector, a gently hydrating lotion that also uses
Vitamin A, goes to work to reduce the appearance of dark spots and
discoloration in as little as two weeks. (Aveeno Positively Radiant

The problem: Adult acne
Maybelline
The solution: Our
teens are far behind us, but fighting for a clear complexion continues
on. Maybelline’s lightweight Pure BB Cream provides natural matte
coverage boosted by salicylic acid to calm and prevent breakouts
underneath. It’s acne-fighting makeup at its best, with SPF to ward off
skin damage, and five shades for a perfect match. (Maybelline Dream Pure

The problem: Dull complexion
Lumene
The solution: Noticing
that your skin doesn’t look as radiant and glowing as it used to? Never
fear: applying this Vitamin C-packed beauty balm will give you an even,
luminous glow. Lumene Bright Now Vitamin C BB Cream’s formula works on
two levels, infusing skin with brightening antioxidant skincare and
providing instant luminosity with light reflecting pigments. Avoid
applying powder on top, which can dull the brightening effects. (Lumene

Unwanted facial hair is a true scourge and it seems like nothing really
works ... until now. Bliss Fuzz Off Facial Hair Removal Cream is packed
with botanicals and skin-loving ingredients to remove hair in three
minutes or less without hurting your skin (or your sensitive nose). It
actually smells pretty good, and the results are fantastic. We
especially love the precision tip that lets us apply the product exactly
where we want it. (Bliss Fuzz Off Facial Hair Removal Cream, $24,
