WHY SYDNEY LOVES IT: Textured toning pads are the perfect way to add chemical and physical exfoliation to prevent and treat breakouts as well as discoloration from past breakouts and sun. They're easy-to-use and great for post-workouts, travel, teenagers, or anyone that loves to keep things simple. They also reduce the appearance of razor bumps on both men...

WHY SYDNEY LOVES IT: The hands-down BEST EYE CREAM. The texture, ingredients, price, plus it's made for those with extra sensitive skin. I've tried 40+ eye creams, and this is it. There are others that are similar, but they will be over $100. I love that it's in a pump bottle...

WHY SYDNEY LOVES IT: My go-to daily SPF moisturizer because it's packed with so many wonderful ingredients and is lightweight enough for all skin types. The tinted option is so subtle but gives a bit of coverage and simply blends with another product to make the perfect color and coverage. DETAILS: Oil-free...

WHY SYDNEY LOVES IT: My favorite sunscreen. It's 100% mineral AND protects against heat, UV light including blue light from screens, using a technique plants use to protect themselves from the sun! It's the best SPF option for those with melasma/brown discoloration as the main concern. It has enough coverage to...

WHY SYDNEY LOVES IT: Vitamin C serum is the first place to spend money in your routine. Medical-grade vitamin C serum can't be replicated at the drugstore. I prefer Obagi Vitamin C Serums to other medical-grade brands due to the texture and price. It's antioxidant of the morning skincare routine. If...

WHY SYDNEY LOVES IT: Vitamin C serum is the first place to spend money in your routine. Medical-grade vitamin C serum can't be replicated at the drugstore. I prefer Obagi Vitamin C Serums to other medical-grade brands due to the texture and price. It's antioxidant of the morning skincare routine. Start...

WHY SYDNEY LOVES IT: The texture is special- it's thick enough to replenish at night but thin enough to use in the morning as well. Plus it has PEPTIDES for anti-aging. For the price it's an MVP. I love it as an all-in-one year-round moisturizer. For drier skin a thicker moisturizer at...

WHY SYDNEY LOVES IT: This is the vitamin C for those with any skin sensitivities or rosacea. It has a derivative of ascorbic acid called THD Ascorbate, which makes it more appropriate for the most sensitive skin. It also serves as an anti-aging serum and has all vitamins A-E found in our...

WHY SYDNEY LOVES IT: My cleanser pick for oily yet sensitive skin. This is one of Epionce's standout products. It's made for oily skin but uses willowbark, the naturally occuring form of salicylic acid, so that it doesn't overdry. It complements other products in a skincare routine so well unlike many...

WHY SYDNEY LOVES IT: Oil cleansers are the secret to healthy skin and removing makeup. This one can be used on the face AND body! I think it's a must-have. DETAILS:  New and improved! More nourishing, biodegradable formula. Gentle face, body, and scalp cleansing oil help balance the skin’s microbiome while restoring...

WHY SYDNEY LOVES IT: It's magical. The one cleanser I recommend everyone start with- no matter age or gender or skin type. It's not an oil cleanser but functions like one in that it gently removes eye makeup and fortifies the skin's natural protective moisture barrier. Plus THE PRICE makes it...

WHY SYDNEY LOVES IT: My pick for retinoid alternative during pregnancy or those that can't tolerate a retinoid. Of course check with your OB before using. Azelaic acid is universally considered safe in pregnancy. This product combines azelaic acid with salicylic acid <2% (so less than what is at the drugstore)...

WHY SYDNEY LOVES IT: This can be used as an extra thick moisturizer as well as neck cream. It was actually studied on the neck and chest by the dermatologist who created the Epionce line for his mom who wanted a neck cream. Yes, it's a bit of a splurge but for many 1...

WHY SYDNEY LOVES IT: Vitamin C serum is the first place to spend money in your routine. Medical-grade vitamin C serum can't be replicated at the drugstore. I prefer Obagi Vitamin C Serums to other medical-grade brands due to the texture and price. It's antioxidant of the morning skincare routine. The...

WHY SYDNEY LOVES IT: Possibly my favorite skincare product. This can be left on overnight as a moisturizer when your skin needs some extra love to thrive. It's a must for all skin types to navigate seasons and incorporate new/stronger ingredients. Dry skin can use a few times weekly, and it's...

WHY SYDNEY LOVES IT: This cleanser is it for 2 types of patients. It's wonderful for those with sensitive skin that is normal-dry and also breakout-prone. I also like this for preteens that are wanting to prevent or just starting to experience some congestion. There aren't many cleansers that address this skin...

WHY SYDNEY LOVES IT: My go-to lightweight PM moisturizer for breakout-prone skin. It has niacinamide to calm and help with discoloration from breakouts. It can be used in the AM too before sunscreen.DETAILS:  This advanced facial moisturizer works to moisturize, restore and repair skin while you rest. EltaMD PM Therapy is oil-free,...

WHY SYDNEY LOVES IT: I love a lotion in a pump and this one is made for those with oilier skin so it's not as thick. I've found all skin types can use it in the AM and as their go-to lightweight moisturizer. There is a very subtle smell that culminates...

WHY SYDNEY LOVES IT: This is a really gritty exfoliator to add to your routine daily or a few times a week, depending on your skin type. This product is perfect for buffing away dead skin and leaving the skin with that fresh skin feeling that Sydney loves! DETAILS:  Gently helps to remove...

WHY SYDNEY LOVES IT: Exfoliating cleansers are my favorite for in the shower so you can use on the neck and chest too. This one gently removes dead skin cells with biodegradable wax beads (mechanical exfoliation) and papaya enzymes (chemical exfoliation. It also hydrates so it works well for all skin...
