Formulated with salicylic acid, this drugstore acne-fighting moisturizer helps clear blemishes and leaves skin feeling hydrated and soothed. Its lightweight, fast-absorbing formula soaks into the skin to help minimize the appearance of large pores. Salicylic acid clears up existing breakouts and helps prevent new ones from forming.

Youth to The People Adaptogen Deep Moisture Cream

Give your skin a boost with this moisturizing cream powered by adaptogenic plant extracts. Thanks to its unique blend of squalane, jojoba and shea butter, this cream provides long-lasting, deep hydration to sensitive skin while diminishing any signs of fatigue. It’s richer than some of the other creams on this list, which is why we recommend it for nighttime.
