Just because awards season is over, doesn’t mean you shouldn’t have red carpet-ready skin. Check out some of my favorite skincare brands for flawless skin year-round below, which also happen to be celeb-favorites as well.
111SKIN
Celeb fans: Kim Kardashian West, Behati Prinsloo, Adriana Lima, Sofia Coppola, Priyanka Chopra
The Celestial Black Diamond line from 111SKIN is one of the brand’s most powerful, using clinical-grade ingredients for the highest level of results. For added efficacy, each product within this collection is made with Diamond Powder, which helps theskin really absorb the youth-enhancing benefitsfor maximum, anti-aging results. Dr. Yannis Alexandrides M.D. FACS—who founded the company—uses only the finest ingredients like licorice root extract, hyaluronic acid, argirelineand retinol, giving each product a smooth texture that feels oh-so-good on the face.
La Mer
Celeb fans: Kate Hudson, Kim Kardashian West, Chrissy Teigen, Serena Williams
Considered the holy grail of celebrity skincare, La Mer may be one of the most coveted skincare brands in the world. Other than its recognizable name, what makes the line truly special is the inclusion of Miracle Broth—an elixir that uses sea kelp and bio-fermentation, first developed in the 1960s by aerospace physicist Dr. Max Huber to combat his own scars from a laboratory accident. Targeting inflammation and redness, the result of the heavenly collection of products is visibly clearer, more healthy skin that is also more resilient to external factors.
La Prairie
Celeb fans: Margot Robbie, January Jones, Angelina Jolie, Christina Hendricks, Victoria Beckham
Combining high-end and rare ingredients like golden caviar extract and pure platinum together with proven Swiss science, La Prairie has become a go-to choice for celebrity skin for obvious reasons. Dating back to the 1930s when adoctor at Clinique La Prairie discovered and began developing cellular anti-aging therapies by way of the brand’s exclusive Cellular Complex, the products are incredibly effective and of course, incredibly luxurious. Products leave the skin more protected, more even-toned, smooth and soft.
Dior
Celeb fans: Bella Hadid, Charlize Theron, Kate Mara, Cara Delevingne
French skincare at its finest, the Dior Skincare product offering targets the most common, age-related skincare issues, in the most luxurious way. Fine lines, uneven texture and dull skin are slowly diminished, making it an obvious choice among Hollywood’s elite. The Capture Youth line is a particular favorite, given its proven results and personalized approach, with different products to address your specific skincare issue. For instance, the Intense Rescue Serum treats tired skin in a super lightweight oil-serum with algae extract, while argan oil fixes the skin’s lipid deficiencies and the fruit of the tropical tamanu tree from Indonesia strengthens the skin barrier. Skin is left smoother, more hydrated, clearer, brighter and more protected with continued use.
Valmont
Celeb fans: Natalia Vodianova, supermodels, members of royal families
Known for its super high-end product line, Valmont has recently introduced its latest offering, the Purity collection, with nine different cleansers: Icy Falls, Wonder Falls, Bubble Falls, Bi-Falls, Aqua Falls, Fluid Falls, Vital Falls, Face Exfoliant and Purity Pack. Each maximizes efficacy in thoroughly cleansing the skin, and alsouses gentle formulas that purify the skin, removing all traces of makeup and residue from pollutants. The extra luxurious component in the Valmont products—making them celebrity favorites—is the inclusion of two key ingredients: Swiss glacial spring water and select probiotics, which together, promote a healthy and balanced microbiotathat leaves the skin with results that are visible and touchable.
