From Texture to Tone: 8 Products That Address Every Skin Concern

Flawless skin may sound like something out of a dream, but it isn’t quite as unattainable as you may think. The trick is to break down each and every complexion concern that needs addressing, and then find the right product for the job(s). Whether your face is marked with dark spots or covered in blemishes, there’s a formula out there that can improve your concerns. That said, finding those formulas is easier said than done. That’s why we’ve already done the heavy lifting, now it’s as simple as clicking through to find the best products to address all of your skin issues.

FOR DRYNESS: CeraVe Moisturizing Cream
For dry skin types, the CeraVe Moisturizing Cream has been a staple in skin care routines for years, and with good reason. The potent cream provides multiple layers of nurturing and protective ingredients to provide long-lasting hydration and nourishment where you need it, without leaving skin looking greasy.

FOR EXCESS OIL: Garnier SkinActive Deep Pore Face Wash with Green Tea
Looking like an oil slick can be a pain, but it’s nothing the right cleanser can’t take care of. The Garnier SkinActive Deep Pore Face Wash with Green Tea purifies while removing dirt, oil, and daily build-up, leaving skin with a mattified appearance. It doesn’t hurt that the formula consists of 99% naturally-derived ingredients.

FOR DISCOLORATION: Kiehl’s Clearly Corrective Dark Spot Solution
The more time we spend in the sun, the likelier we are to receiving unwanted dark spots in return. If discoloration is a skin concern you’d like to address ASAP, start smoothing on Kiehl’s Clearly Corrective Dark Spot Solution. Formulated with a potent complex of Activated C, white perch, and peonies, you can expect this serum to help correct dark spots and discoloration.

FOR ROUGH TEXTURE: SkinCeuticals Retexturizing Activator
If you’ve experienced having rough skin, you know it can be well, rough. Thankfully, you aren’t stuck with the same texture for life. Smooth, soft skin can be yours with a little help from the right product. The SkinCeuticals Retexturizing Activator promotes exfoliation, visibly diminishing surface lines and transforming skin so that it’s smoother, softer, and more radiant.

The Kiehl’s Rare Earth Deep Pore Cleansing Mask helps eliminate debris and dead skin cells, leaving the appearance of pores minimized

FOR DARK CIRCLES: Vichy Idéalia Eyes

The dual-action spot treatment, with benzoyl peroxide and LHA, helps to reduce the number and severity of blemishes, while penetrating clogged pores to clear blackheads and whiteheads
