This month, NewBeauty readers took skin care seriously. In March, that meant luxurious face creams, silky lip masks, powerful serums and an instantly depuffing eye gel were among the top-sellers. Explore these beauty fanatic favorites and more, below.
Dr. Barbara Sturm Face Cream ($240)
Priyanka Chopra-Jonas once told us this soothing anti-aging cream was her favorite moisturizer. Evidently, NewBeauty readers love it too. It’s packed with the antioxidant purslane—an ingredient that provides optimal moisture, strengthens the skin barrier and reduces significant signs of aging.
Dermalogica Awaken Peptide Depuffing Eye Gel ($59)
Shoppers in their 40s say this is the “best” eye product for tired, puffy eyes. The unique formula counts caffeine, peptides, rosemary and lactic acid as key ingredients to deliver a more youthful, wide-awake look in just 10 minutes.
CHANEL Le Rouge Duo Ultra Tenue Ultrawear Liquid Lip Colour ($48)
This is the liquid lipstick meets high-shine gloss that Jennifer Aniston wore to the 2024 SAG Awards (specifically, the Light Rose shade). Shoppers praise it, too. “Stays all day and moisturizes lips as well. Going to buy more colors,” shared one reviewer.
Three Ships Beauty Firm Believer Goji Stem Cell + Pomegranate Smoothing Neck + Face Cream ($42)
For the second consecutive month, our readers bought this firming face and neck cream in droves. Powerful botanicals such as goji berry, edelweiss and pomegranate restore supple, smooth and youthful-looking skin.
Saie Slip Tint Radiant All-Over Concealer ($28)
Saie’s newest concealer made big waves among NewBeauty readers. The “undetectable” medium coverage concealer can be used in the traditional sense—spot cover blemishes, conceal imperfections and brighten dark circles—and doubles as a full face light foundation. One reviewer went so far as to say it was like “hitting the jackpot” for their “dry and aging skin.”
Angela Caglia Cell Forté Serum With BIOMSC ($395)
Angela Caglia Skincare founder and CEO, Angela Caglia, told us an emerging skin-care trend may come from inside our own bodies—and NewBeauty readers are in.
“2024 will be about human-derived stem cell technology like our breakthrough, first-to-market best-seller Cell Forte Serum powered by our proprietary BIOMSC with thousands of real growth factors, exosomes, and peptides,” Cagila explains.
Dermelect Cosmeceuticals Smooth & Supple Lip Mask Melt ($26)
To alleviate dry, chapped lips this winter our readers stocked up on this non-sticky lip mask from Dermelect. The formula has hydrating oils rich in fatty acids, nourishing plant extracts and antioxidant-rich berries, and comes in a generous size.
SkinMedica TNS Advanced+ Anti-Aging Serum ($295)
This dermatologist-favorite serum is proven to visibly improve the appearance of coarse wrinkles, fine lines and sagging skin. Grand Rapids, MI plastic surgeon David R. Alfonso, MD, says it’s his “personal go-to favorite medical grade product.” Montclair, NJ dermatologist Jeanine Downie, MD, adds, “The formula has growth factors and stem cells which help with toning and tightening the look and feel of the skin.”
SkinCeuticals C E Ferulic ($182)
Speaking of highly recommended dermatologist-approved products, SkinCeuticals C E Ferulic, unsurprisingly, made our top-sold list again. The iconic serum was nicknamed “liquid gold” by patients of Pittsburgh plastic surgeon Leo R. McCafferty, MD.
“This powerful vitamin C serum protects the skin from UVA/UVB, infrared rays, and all other environmental stressors that cause damage to our skin. Its protective benefits last the whole day while giving skin an added glow,” adds Fresno, CA dermatologist Kathleen Behr, MD.
Biopelle Tensage Intensive Serum 50 ($195)
Named one of the “best serums” for healthier skin, Davie, FL dermatologist Marianna Blyumin-Karasik, MD counts Biopelle Tensage Intensive Serum 50 as her “secret weapon” when it comes to seeing brightening and smoothing results fast. Her favorite benefit of the serum is its ability to “vitalize the skin in one week,” according to Dr. Blyumin-Karasik.
