10 Anti-Aging Moisturizers So Good Bartenders Will Ask to See Your ID
Earlier this year, I went cocktails with friends. When it was my turn to place my order—an espresso martini, it was a Friday!—and the waitress stopped and cocked her head. “ID, please,” she requested. The table of 30-somethings went silent. After I handed over my driver’s license, stating I was in fact born in 1990, my friend looked me dead in the eye and said, “Spill the skincare routine.”
“It’s The Cream,” I shared, talking about one of the best anti-aging face creams on the market. “And sunscreen, of course.”
A good face cream (whether or not you like the term “anti-aging”) can make all the difference when it comes to smooth, glowing skin. “Moisturizing mature skin leads to better skin tone, and firmness. It also appears less wrinkly,” says dermatologist Dr. Karan Lal. It needs to have the right actives for your skin: maybe you need hyaluronic acid or retinol in your routine, or if you’re feeling dull niacinamide or vitamin C can help. We’ve made a list of 10 of our favorites, which include clean beauty options and fragrance-free formulas all with the goal of keeping your skin looking fresh and glowy.
