While I appreciate the appeal of a slow-rise or relaxing, wind-down 10-step skin-care routine, the majority of the time when I find myself in my bathroom in front of the vanity, I’m looking for a quick fix. Whether I’m having an extra early morning or coming in from a late night, I often find myself dreaming of an all-in-one product to help my skin reset quickly and effectively. Enter Jan Marini’s Bioglycolic Face Cleanser ($50): my new favorite product for a quick refresh that will have your skin feeling salon-fresh in seconds.
What it is:
Jan Marini’s iconic Skin Care Management System is a cult-classic and a multi-year NewBeauty Award-winner, but the brand’s one-off products do just as many wonders for the skin, as I quickly learned after testing its best-selling Bioglycolic Face Cleanser. Harnessing the power of glycolic acid, this gentle exfoliating cleanser rids the skin of impurities and dead skin cells while preparing the skin for the serums and treatments to follow without the need for a toner or extra cleansing step. Suitable for all skin types, Jan Marini’s Bioglycolic Cleanser deeply cleanses without stripping for an all-in-one solution for refreshing your complexion morning or night.
How to use:
Suitable for use in the morning and evening, simply massage a quarter-sized amount of product onto the skin and remove with water or a damp was cloth. Then, splash your face 10-15 times with lukewarm water and blot dry. While the cleanser is non-irritating and gentle on all skin types, remember to remove your eye makeup before cleansing.
