The #ProductEmpties We Loved to the Last DropFrom new finds to longtime favorites, these are beauty products that our editors use until the bitter end (of the tube) |
The Gentle Peel That Leaves My Skin So Glowy As a beauty editor, I'm constantly slathering new products on my face. While definitely a highlight of the job, all these products can lead to clogged pores, breakouts and patchy, uneven skin. My fix: The Body Shop Drops of Youth Youth Liquid Peel, $25. This holy grail, gentle liquid skin exfoliant removes all of the gunk and grime and leaves my face baby smooth.
After washing and drying your face, apply one to two pumps of the product, rub in small circles and watch the magic begin. You'll notice the gel start to clump up before your eyes — it's a combination of dead skin cells and product. The more you rub it, the more it clumps (it's a little gross, yet oh-so-satisfying). After rinsing with warm water, you'll notice an immediate difference in your complexion. Pores are cleaned out and those little dry patches around the nose and forehead are gone. The best part is, the soft, smooth, just-back-from-a-facial glow — and no irritation. It's gentle enough to use several times per week — just enough to undo all the product testing I inflict upon it.
