Face cream with radiant particles, a gel that “catches” light and creates a Photoshop effect, elixirs for skin radiance with pomegranate and citrus extracts that will “erase” fatigue from the face - put aside the highlighter, BeautyHack experts have chosen the best products that really are make the skin healthy.
Face creams
Face cream GlowCrème, Erborian
Choice of BeautyHack Editor-in-Chief Karina Andreeva
I apply this pearlescent product all over my face, both before and after makeup. It works as a base - after it the foundation spreads much better and more evenly, and in the compartment they give the effect of the skin "from the inside".
Replaces the highlighter - I apply it as the final stage of makeup on the protruding parts of the face (cheekbones, under the eyebrow, a tick above the upper lip, the bridge of the nose). Very easy to use and barely noticeable on the face, but the radiance turns out as if it were your healthy skin (and not tired after a long winter). By the way, when a tan appears on my skin, I often do not use any foundation and just apply this cream: it looks very beautiful.
It contains extracts of Poria coconut (an antioxidant that is responsible for smoothing) and licorice (evens skin tone and gives radiance). For what funds to go to the Erborian store you can see here.

Gel-balm for radiance of the skin "Sea source" Source Marine, Thalgo
The choice of the editorial assistant at BeautyHack Karina Ilyasova
I am always in search of the perfect cream - even the most persistent tin soldier will fail sooner or later. Over the past few months, my skin has just gone crazy: stress, temperature changes, poor nutrition. All this instantly reflected on my face. When I tested the cream for the first time, I didn't have much hope: good? Yes. Moisturizes? Yes. Doesn't cause rashes? Yes. At this stage, I was already incredibly happy, since these indicators were more than enough.
The texture of the balm is ideal for the warm season - the skin is moisturized, but not oily. It is absorbed instantly, therefore it is suitable for care both at night and before make-up. But the most important thing is that the complexion and the quality of the skin have improved with it. It is now smoother, softer and fresher. This cream is just a godsend for me. If it was necessary to leave only one means of care, then it would definitely be it.

Light cream for intense hydration Botanical Kinetics Intense Hydrating Soft Crème, Aveda
Editor's Choice BeautyHack Julia Kozoliy
The cream belongs to the basic series of the American organic brand. His portfolio includes Ecocert certification, which confirms that 90% of essential oils and 89% of raw ingredients in all Aveda products are of plant origin. And the basic series is the cleansing and moisturizing creams and lotions that the skin (of any type) needs every day.
Botanical Kinetics cream is light, like an emulsion (there is a slightly denser product for dry skin in the series). It is instantly absorbed (I apply it in the morning and in the evening), removes traces of fatigue and retains hydration for 24 hours - visually this is expressed in even skin in the morning (without shine in problem areas) and a healthy glow in the evening (when fatigue has swept away all traces of makeup from the face).
And for me, Aveda is beauty therapy - it's about the most delicate textures that seem to soothe the skin, and herbal light aromas (slightly similar to each other, but special each time). Aromatherapists and perfumers of the brand are working on the latter!
Price: 4 440 rub.
Moisturizing day cream "Yuzu Sorbet", Erborian
The choice of special correspondent Beautyhack Daria Mironova
My absolute favorite this fall with a magical consistency. Imagine a light, citrus-scented white sorbet with tiny yellow granules that dissolve on the skin when applied - it looks like someone has decided to extend the summer!
The main ingredient is Japanese yuzu lemon, which is rich in vitamin C and fights skin fatigue in cosmetics. Moisturizing sorbet is perfect for everyday use, even for my oily skin: does not clog pores, moisturizes and gives radiance!
Price: 3 950 rub.
Gel Elixir De Lumiere, Eisenberg
BeautyHack Editor's Choice Daria Sizova
In the heat, I don't want to overload my face with products at all, and I need one and only (and the best!) Cream that moisturizes the skin, prepares it for makeup and makes the face glow. This was found among the means of the French brand, which is known all over the world for its line of perfumes (you can read more about a family brand with an interesting philosophy here).
The brand succeeded in the care products no worse than the fragrances - a mask that in a matter of minutes will relieve fatigue and transform the face, has firmly settled on the shelves of real beauticians (and on mine too). And the gel did not disappoint at all. For the summer, he is what you need (on three points).
1) It has a very light texture, and therefore the gel will not overload the face, leave no sticky marks or injure the skin if you burn. The composition contains Bellis Perennis flower extract, which helps to cope with all stages of melanin synthesis (it is inevitable in the sun).
2) The product is multifunctional - it can also be applied to the delicate area under the eyes, which means that one less product will "go" to the holiday cosmetic bag. The gel will replace not only the main stage of care, but also the make-up base. Bonus - the product gives the skin a slight radiance (the highlighter and porthole can also be omitted - only if for evening make-up).
3) The gel allows you to do without makeup at all. The product contains not only a valuable extract, but also photoreflectors - small reflective particles that "catch" daylight and sunlight. They illuminate the skin and hide minor imperfections like a Photoshop (what else do you need from makeup in the summer?).
There is only one "but" - the product will not give your skin a powerful charge of hydration. Therefore, if in the summer she desperately screams "water!", Stock up on fabric masks - in combination with the gel, you get an absolutely excellent "combo".
Price: about 5000 rubles.
Face cream My Payot Jour Gelee, Payot
The choice of special correspondent BeautyHack Anastasia Lyagushkina
My love for Payot began with a harmonious combination of beautiful jars and magic tools inside them. I couldn't ignore the My Payot Jour Gelee face cream. Visually, it resembles fruit puree, and the aroma of apricot makes the product even more appetizing. I use it in the morning, for breakfast. As stated on the package, the cream gives the skin a radiance and moisturizes it perfectly.
The jelly texture is well distributed and perfectly absorbed - after application, the skin looks fresh and radiant, and becomes soft to the touch. What is important - the texture of the cream is very light, it is not felt on the skin and does not create a film effect.
Bottom line: the skin is hydrated, fresh, radiant, a tropical scent reminiscent of summer, for a couple more hours with me - I'm happy!
Price: about 2,000 rubles.
Face cream Bamboo Glow Dewy Effect Cream, Erborian
Choice of the senior editor of BeautyHack Anastasia Speranskaya
Erborian is the first Korean-French brand that combines the best achievements of Korean medicine and modern technologies. According to the founder, Catalin Berenyi, the decision to create the brand was born by itself, because all women are united by beauty. This summer, Katalin also took care of young girls - she was inspired by her daughter Zoe to create new products Bamboo Glow and Bamboo Matte.
For a whole year, the founder studied the needs of young skin and came to the conclusion that we all lack hydration. But Bamboo Glow Cream can do more: it gives the skin a light glow and perfectly refreshes it. Traces of fatigue are erased, as if a magic eraser was passed over the face - that is why the cream can also be used as a base for makeup, and thanks to its convenient packaging, the novelty will fit into any cosmetic bag.
Price: 1 990 rub.
Moisturizer, primer and illuminator Smart Radiance Cream, 03 Glowing Rose, Kiko Milano
BeautyHack Editor's Choice Daria Sizova
A radiant base is a must-have. With the onset of cold weather, the skin becomes dull, gray like the sky outside the window: in this case, only serums with vitamin C (especially these) and primers with shining particles that give the face a healthy look are saved.
This product offers a universal solution - to use the product as a make-up base, as a moisturizer, and as an illuminator. The pleasant consistency spreads easily over the skin and is quickly absorbed. The element of hydration is felt immediately - the composition contains hyaluronic acid. But for dry skin, this is not enough - do not forget to apply the cream.
The brush-shaped applicator is handy, but can spread too much of the product - spread the remainder over the collarbones for a subtle shine. There is no shimmer in the all-in-one product - rather, small shiny particles that create a uniform and very natural glow (as if your skin really looks like that). There are 5 shades in the line for different skin tones, but I recommend the third, with a pearly glow - the most versatile.
The main "trick" of the product is that it emphasizes the radiance of the skin, and does not create play or holographic effect from space. What you need as a base for every day! By the way, the remedy is not comedogenic - do not expect blackheads and clogged pores.
Price: 1 190 rub.
Universal nourishing cream Skin Food, Weleda
Editor's Choice Beautyhack Julia Kozoliy
The Weleda company was founded in 1921, and one of the first face creams of the brand was created in 1926. So Skin Food cream is an updated version of exactly that remedy, invented at the beginning of the 20th century. Its main task is to soften and protect the skin during the autumn-winter period.
The cream is nutritious, which means dense and greasy (in the second and fourth place in the list of components - sunflower and almond oils). The product does not lay down with a film, is not immediately (but quickly) absorbed and works well with problem areas: local peeling, rough skin on the elbows, knees and heels (for this reason, the product can be kept close at hand even in summer).
Herbal aroma with pronounced notes of calendula and rosemary are the main components of the product that soothe the skin and fight dullness. And Skin Food is also good because it can be used not only for facial care. First, it replaces the primer for a healthy glow. And secondly, it will save chapped lips, dry hair ends and help out if you run out of cuticle oil!
Price: 870 rub.
Foundation care Base Traitante Le Privilege, Rivoli Geneve
The choice of special correspondent BeautyHack Maria Alferova
The Swiss brand Rivoli Geneve has the texture of a soufflé and an incredible moisturizing and radiant effect. I even stopped using foundation and concealer unnecessarily, because the skin already has an even tone, there is no redness, and Base Traitante makes it fresh and well-groomed.
Now the Rivoli Geneve brand belongs to the Induchem concern. And this is already a success, because for 65 years Induchem has been developing formulas, components and products for many leading brands, and Rivoli Geneve is the quintessence of all the accumulated knowledge. The main component of tonal care is a hyaluronic acid precursor. Precursors are generally a notion of Rivoli Geneve, molecules that penetrate the skin, giving it what it needs. In this case, it is hyaluronic acid. Also in Base Traitante is UVaxine, a molecule that protects the skin from UV rays.
The beige-pinkish primer instantly melts on the skin and adjusts to its color. If I still apply shadows and blush on top, they seem to look brighter.
Price: 8 400 rub.
Cream for face, neck and skin around the eyes Multi-Active 3 in 1, Lundenilona
The choice of the editorial assistant of BeautyHack Anna Hobotova
The Russian brand Lundenilona is seven years old and named after its founder, Ilona Lunden. The brand began with one product - an elixir for hair and skin. Now the assortment has expanded to products for hair, skin and teeth, and there are Lundenilona representations in Belarus and Kazakhstan.
I got a cream for the face, neck and skin around the eyes, which should perform three functions at once: moisturize, nourish and restore. For this, the manufacturer has created a "shock" composition: extracts of red algae, arnica flowers, rose, licorice root, chicory leaves, ash bark, hyaluronic acid - all for tone, freshness, radiance and protection from external influences. Vitamins E and B7 restore the integrity and density of the skin.
The texture of the cream is very soft and delicate, it lays on the skin evenly, without leaving an oily sheen. I use the product in the morning as a makeup base and in the evening just to moisturize. During use, the skin became smoother, and dryness and peeling in the T-zone are gone. Bonus - SPF 10!
Price: 2 950 rub.
Moisturizing cream-gel for the face C-Vit Revitalizing Gel Cream, Sesderma
The choice of SMM-manager BeautyHack Alexandra Grishina
The Spanish brand in the field of dermatocosmetology invites us with every means to listen to our skin - to take into account its needs in a situation “here and now”. The brand develops a wide range of products - every girl will be able to find exactly what will help solve individual skin problems (dermatological and aesthetic). But among the "army" there are also universal means.
If you are the owner of dull skin and need a vitamin boost, then this gel is for you. It has a light texture that is comfortable for summer and an interesting composition - orange and grapefruit oils and vitamin C improve the complexion, giving the skin a healthy glow. The effect is noticeable after the first application - the skin is toned and looks moisturized.
The active ingredients in the composition stimulate the production of collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid, which helps to restore the lipid barrier, improves microcirculation and activates cell renewal.
The product works great as a makeup base - it contains vitamin A and reflective particles.
I apply the product to cleansed face with massage movements every morning (the brand recommends applying the product in the evening). After a few weeks of use, I noticed that the skin became smoother and the complexion was even.
Price: 3 950 rub.
Invisible Illumination Instant Glow Fresh Skin Tint and Foundation Brush 02, Lumene
Choice of the senior editor of BeautyHack Anastasia Speranskaya
We know you've been looking for it - a cream that brightens, moisturizes and conceals imperfections without turning your face into a disco ball. Lumene has released a novelty that literally fits like a second skin: thanks to the gel-like texture, the finish is light and breathable, but at the same time perfectly evens the complexion.
Healthy ingredients from Finland are carefully collected in a round jar: here and arctic spring water (the faithful companion of all Lumene products), and wild arctic cloudberries, and organic northern birch sap, and red algae. The stereotype that foundations dry out the skin is shattered!
It's simple - if you apply the product with your fingers, the cream will melt almost to a translucent state, and with a brush, the finish turns out a little denser. Dense bristles and a comfortable notch in diameter help to perfectly blend the borders - down with stripes around the ears and hairline. However, you are unlikely to have them: despite the fact that the cream is presented in two shades (universal medium and universal light), even dark-skinned Moldovan women and snow-white will be able to apply the novelty flawlessly. The cream will not hide serious imperfections, but this is not its responsibility. But an even complexion and a healthy natural glow are guaranteed for you all day long.
Price for the cream: 2 407 rubles.
Day cream anti-wrinkle to smooth the surface of the skin, Yves Rocher
The choice of the editorial assistant of BeautyHack Anna Hobotova
The main "trick" of Yves Rocher is to benefit from plant extracts. The company fought over the series for natural skin radiance for 8 years. Experts have created three treatment programs at once: a natural radiance against wrinkles and for smoothing the skin surface, restoring elasticity - to renew the synthesis of collagen and hyaluronic acid, a lifting effect - for modeling contours.
The Natural Radiance program is based on the crystal mesembriantemum (in other words, the plant of life), its extract activates the production of mTOR protein and stimulates the fight against deep wrinkles. It also contains a plant extract of rice, which restores the process of oxygen metabolism and enhances the natural radiance of the skin. It is better to use the cream from the age of 30, but I decided to test it on myself. The aroma of the cream is gorgeous - sweet-floral. It is absorbed immediately after application and hydrates the skin in a gorgeous way. I use it in the morning and as a make-up base: all day long the skin is velvety, smooth and fresh. An excellent budget tool for daily use.
Price: 1 049 rub.
Face serums
Serum for radiance of the skin Clarifying Infusion, Valmont
Choice of the senior editor of BeautyHack Anastasia Speranskaya
Back in 1905, the Valmont health and beauty clinic opened its doors on the shores of Lake Leman in Geneva - it will take several years, and Coco Chanel, Georges Simenon and Ingrid Bergman will become its regular guests. A cellular procedure was also developed there, which helped to restore damage to the skin and return it to its former beauty and youth. Now it is no longer just a clinic, but one of the largest brands with a wide range of products for all occasions, but Valmont's "cellular" principles have remained true - they made the triple DNA molecule the main ingredient.
In the radiance serum she was accompanied by zinc - they are united by a plus sign, therefore together they both rejuvenate and soothe the skin. In general, it has a very positive effect on my combined zinc: it significantly reduces the production of sebum and narrows the pores in the T-zone, so for me this is the best primer.
The serum promises to add radiance, but don't expect shimmery particles or oily sheen - the components work from the inside out. Hexylresorcinol provides a "highlight" for the skin - it also limits the production of melanin, evening out skin tone and preventing the appearance of age spots. And applying the product is a pleasure. Delicate pearl with the aroma of a cream from my mother's cosmetic bag (so warm herbal), the serum is quickly absorbed and does not leave a sticky feeling, but the skin shines even without a highlighter!
Price: 19 250 rub.
Serum "Perfect radiance" Le Blanc Chanel, Chanel
The product contains an extract of the Japanese akoya pearl - it brightens the skin, evening its tone. The collection works in a complex - neutralizes age spots and helps in the fight against aging, thanks to the beneficial properties of pearl collagen, rose berry and commeline extract, a natural antioxidant.
Price: RUB 6 995
Night serum Perfect C Treatment Serum, 3LAB
Choice of BeautyHack Editor-in-Chief Karina Andreeva
Almost every girl dreams of trying the products of the American brand 3LAB at least once in her life (and also to find out if the high price corresponds to the quality!). In the period of long working days and cold weather, one lack of sleep turns my face into such a tired and haggard that everyone asks me: "Are you sleeping at all?" Radiance and healthy color, of course, are the first to leave the ship. Cream alone is not enough. I decided to give the serum a chance to transform me (spoiler: she did it great!).
The product has a gel texture and a light yellow tint. If you look closely, you can see small shiny particles. I would also like to note a pleasant aroma with sourness. It is used sparingly: 1-2 drops are enough for the whole face. Night serum, but sometimes I apply it in the morning. It contains two active forms of vitamin C (to prevent the first wrinkles and anti-aging effect), peptides (to stimulate the production of collegiate) and acai berries (work as an antioxidant). For a couple of days of use, which were accompanied by not the strongest and longest sleep, the serum was still able to help the face and "hid" sleepless nights and fatigue. Moisturizing, anti-aging effect and radiant skin - what else do you need to be happy?
Price: 10 045 rub.
Ampoule set "Grand Cru Ultimate Anti-Aging", BABOR
The choice of SMM-manager BeautyHack Alexandra Grishina
In miracle ampoules, the BABOR experts have combined the maximum concentration of active ingredients of natural origin, sterile packaging and a serving per application - for the purest and most effective form of care. Grand Cru is French translated as “the highest quality product”. Giving such a name to its new product, the brand immediately declares its exclusivity and excludes the right to make a mistake - the product simply has no chance to disappoint you.
In the set you will find 7 ampoules for a weekly anti-age course: 2 ampoules of a royal rose, 3 ampoules of a white rose and 3 of a black rose. Each of the three concentrates has a different role to play. Royal rose is designed to stimulate collagen production in the layers of the skin. The white rose is responsible for shine and tone evening. And the cherry on the cake is the black rose of Baccarat, which protects against premature aging, the very same protection against free radicals. The bright scent of the rose will not leave anyone indifferent, and the convenient opening cap and sterile ampoule will simplify the process of your rejuvenation. The "dose" is designed for one application - it is enough for the face, neck and décolleté.
Price: 5 720 rub.
Elixir for radiance of the skin Glow Formula Skin Hydrator, Kiehl's
BeautyHack Editor's Choice Daria Sizova
I love multifunctional tools (read why - read here). The elixir replaced my serum and makeup base - it perfectly moisturized the skin and prepared it for makeup. The product will appeal to adherents of organic cosmetics: 95% of the ingredients in the composition are natural. The forward among them is pomegranate extract, which is responsible for natural radiance and a healthy complexion.
The creamy texture spreads easily on the skin and absorbs quickly. The composition also contains a delicate shimmer - shimmering particles create the effect of skin radiance "from the inside". And lovers of a very delicate glow can apply the product locally - as a highlighter.
Price: 2 690 rubles.
Antioxidant concentrate of youth LiftActiv, Vichy
The choice of the editorial assistant at BeautyHack Karina Ilyasova
Winter (or, well, spring) is the ideal time to use this serum. Vichy experts warn: it is better not to apply LiftActiv if you are going to be in the sun. If you still have a serum on your skin, use a cream with a minimum of SPF 15 on top. Night is another matter. At this time, the product is better absorbed by the skin, and in the morning you will calmly wash off its remnants.
The main promise from the manufacturer is that the concentrate gives the skin a healthy glow. And indeed it is! For a month of use (exactly during this period, the jar ended), the skin gradually acquired a healthy and rested look. Outwardly, the serum resembles water and must be applied very quickly so that it does not get absorbed into the skin of the hands.
The product does not clog the pores, but it can tingle if there are wounds on the skin. Of course, after a month, fine wrinkles have not disappeared anywhere, but the freshness of the face 100% compensates for all the promises.
Price: 965 rub.
Serum-radiance against age spots Vinoperfect, Caudalie
BeautyHack Editor's Choice Daria Sizova
After the vacation, pigmentation suddenly appeared on my face. At first I fell into a stupor, and then I began to study the issue. Since the spots are not very pronounced, I realized that I need to deal with the problem with the help of cosmetics - to treat “from the inside” and hide from the outside.
Serum will help on both counts. When choosing a product, there was no doubt: the main ingredient of the serum is viniferin. This is not a scary term from alchemy, but just a natural squeeze from the vine. Remember the history lessons and portraits of girls in wineries - despite the bright sun, their skin was porcelain-sleek, and all thanks to the juice of the vine.
Squalane of olive will additionally moisturize your skin (this is extremely important in the fall), and a light, fat-free formula will allow the product to be absorbed quickly and not cause trouble for girls with a combination type.
Price: 3 800 rub.
Serum "White Queen" Reine Blanche, L'Occitane
Editor's Choice BeautyHack Julia Kozoliy
"The White Queen" is not a reference to the character of Lewis Carroll. This is how L'Occitane named a series of products with meadowsweet extract, a perennial herb with white flowers. In all the products you will find an impressive portion of the antioxidants flavonoids, fatty acids and vitamins A and C. This mix was "seasoned" with salicylic acid and received products whose main task is to fill the skin with radiance! The serum copes with its task by 5 points.
This is not an anti-age category, so don't expect it to work miracles, but it is very good as a daily care in any season.
Firstly, it is comfortable to use: there is no feeling of a film, a sticky layer. The serum has a very light texture, the product is immediately absorbed - you can proceed to the rest of the care steps.
Secondly, you will see the result from the product immediately, if there are no obvious problems on the skin. If you remember about it in the morning and in the evening, the skin will become soft, and on the face you will notice a delicate glow, as if you had applied a makeup base with shimmery particles.
The product has a convenient dispenser. I love eyedropper serums - they are photogenic (making a cool Boomerang) and will set you up for impressive work on your skin. But the dispenser has its advantages (especially when you are late for work).
Price: RUB 5 800
Night revitalizing serum Skin Treatment Ex, Cefine
Editor's Choice BeautyHack Natalia Kapitsa
Until the age of 25, I and skin care were incompatible concepts: cleansing is the only stage that I have never ignored. Having crossed the thirty-year mark and joined the society of “not young, but still beautiful,” face serums appeared on the shelf - I don't want to see wrinkles before forty years. The "first night" right went to the night remedy from Cefine.
All lines of the Japanese brand are made on the basis of medicinal plants. His main philosophy is to combine the experience of the past with the possibilities of the present. The owner of the brand, cosmetologist Mineko Nishida is sure: plants have a strong energy and therefore are able to work wonders. Judging by the effect after a week of using Skin Treatment Ex, Ms. Mineko is 100% right. The product with a rich vitamin composition (A, P, E), coesime Q10, creatine in nanocapsules does the impossible: it gives the skin radiance, making it more elastic. For skeptics: serum improves blood microcirculation - this cannot but work. Of course, she will not cope with deep "age" wrinkles, but with small "crow's feet" - one left.
The product has a light texture and almost no smell. A separate "thank you" for the normalization of the activity of the sebaceous glands - after two weeks of daily use, the face shines less.
Among the ingredients I found aloe extract, hyaluronic acid, squalene, hydrolyzed silk, chlorella extract and much more interesting - it seems that just reading the composition you start to look younger (just kidding). In the "team" they work for 5+.
Price: 8 650 rub.
Essence Clearly Corrective Brightening & Soothing Treatment Water, Kiehl's
Choice of the senior editor of BeautyHack Anastasia Speranskaya
The long-awaited addition to the Clearly Corrective line from Kiehl’s - now the collection has an essence and a product for an even tone and smooth texture of the skin, which will help you look fresh in summer even on gray winter days. The essence is mesmerizing from the first seconds - you will see pearl overflows in the bottle. Unsurprisingly, it is designed to give your face a natural glow. It is these particles that noticeably even out the tone and save from dullness.
It contains vitamin C and extracts of white birch and licorice root, thanks to which the essence soothes and moisturizes the skin, as well as prepares it for the application of serum and cream. Apply twice a day, after shaking the bottle - with a cotton pad or in Korean, with patting movements of the hands.
Price: 3 600 rub.
Brightening ampoule water-based serum "Yuzu", Skinfood
The choice of BeautyHack editorial assistant Arina Zarudko
We love the Skinfood cosmetic brand for its unconventional approach to product creation: formulations are based on healthy foods that have a beneficial effect on the skin.
Having tasted the serum with yuzu extract, I realized that citruses are useful not only on the plate. This product perfectly moisturizes the skin, creating a naturally glowing effect (as if you are getting great sleep and living in nature).
The secret of the remedy is in a large amount of vitamin C, which is in the yuzu itself (there is more of it than in lemon!).
In addition, yuzu is a powerful natural antioxidant, which means it can even tone and soothe redness. In the fall, vitamins are needed not only by the body, but also by the skin - do not deny it pleasure.
The serum looks like lemon water and smells the same. I cleanse the skin, go through with a tonic and apply a few drops of serum - traces of fatigue and sadness on the skin as if it had happened.
Price: 1 990 rub.
Serum for face Citrus Brightening Serum, Frudia
BeautyHack Editor's Choice Daria Sizova
In the fall, a gray complexion comes to me - the skin reacts very sharply to the off-season, "rewarding" me with dullness and peeling. Therefore, radiance serums with a complex of vitamins are not a “delicacy”, but an obligatory part of your morning and evening routine.
This season, a bright bottle of the Korean brand, which entered the market 4 months ago, got into the cosmetic bag. Our entire editorial team fell in love with lip balm (how it differs from others - read here) and scrubbing shower gel (they talked about it here). My hands have been drawn to the product for a long time, and it turned out, not in vain - it can solve almost all skin problems.
If you have enlarged pores, the serum will help to tighten them without overdrying the skin - it contains oils of mango, tomato seeds, grapes and apricot kernel. They will also help to make the complexion smoother and maintain the elasticity of the skin. For those who have oily it, I also advise you to pay attention to the serum - the extract of bamboo leaves will make the skin slightly matte, preventing oily sheen during the day, and eucalyptus extract normalizes the work of the sebaceous glands, helping to treat acne and repairing areas that are damaged by acne.
And if in the summer you overdid it with a tan, the product will also help with pigmentation - it will visually hide it, make it lighter and help exfoliate dead cells. But the serum will only help if the spots are not very active - it works as an additional care.
But the best thing, in my opinion, is toning and eliminating dullness. Mandarin extract will slightly brighten the skin, breathe life into it, forcing the blood to circulate faster in the cells. As a result, you will get a healthy complexion without makeup - a real gift for the fall!
Price: about 2 500 rubles.
Face masks
Nourishing mask with pomegranate Pomegranate, Frudia
BeautyHack Editor's Choice Daria Sizova
I drew attention to the remedy because of the composition - the mask consists of 46% of pomegranate extract. This fruit has long been known for its nourishing properties, something that my dry and dull skin just lacked. I applied the product to cleansed skin for ten minutes. The impressions were only pleasant - for two reasons.
The first is ease of application. The fabric base adheres very tightly to the skin and does not slip off the face.
The second is the effect of using it. The skin became hydrated, and the pomegranate oil smoothed out fine wrinkles and visually tightened the skin. The effect of a pleasant glow "from the inside" turned out, as if I had just returned from the sea, and had not been sitting for eight hours in a stuffy office.
Price: 230 rub.
Mineral peeling mask "Double Radiance", Vichy
The choice of special correspondent BeautyHack Daria Mironova
The main ingredient in this mask is fruit acids, which gently cleanse the skin of dead cells. The product has a peach-colored gel consistency - apply on the face for five minutes, then rinse with warm water.
If you use it twice a week for a month, then the skin will become much smoother, enlarged pores will shrink, and inflammation will go away faster. The mask restores the mineral balance of the skin without dehydrating it. Mine is of the oily type, but the mask is also suitable for those with dry skin (you may need to use it a little less often).
Price: 1 200 rub.
Mask for perfect skin Express Lifting, Enhel Beauty
The choice of SMM-manager BeautyHack Alexandra Grishina
The Express Lifting set contains 3 sheet masks, generously infused with hydrogen essence based on coral powder from the depths of the Pacific Ocean. Due to its high concentration, the components of the mask actively penetrate into the skin in just 20 minutes, which are designed to moisturize it and restore processes in each cell. Do you know why the mask cannot be kept for more than 20 minutes? The cosmetologist told about this at the Sephora meeting in the Atrium: when you apply a mask, a process called osmosis takes place. But there is another side - reverse osmosis, which begins when the masks are "overexposed". In this case, all the beneficial effect disappears. Therefore, do not forget that everything is good in moderation. And for accuracy, you can always set a timer on your phone, which will cheerfully remind you of the need to remove the mask.
If you often have a feeling of tightness after washing, there is no healthy glow and, in principle, a rested look, then this set is your lifeguard! The mask must be applied to cleansed skin and then removed with a warm, damp towel. And the remaining copies are best kept in the refrigerator (the packaging is tightly closed, and not the essence disappears).
Price: 3 800 rub.
Makeup bases
Blurring & Illuminating Fluid Gel Primer Yves Saint Laurent
The choice of special correspondent BeautyHack Maria Alferova
The primer smoothes the skin, contains pearlescent particles that give the skin a visible glow. It is applied after day care and before foundation - it prevents cosmetics from clogging pores. Has a slight defocusing effect, which looks especially great in the photo.
Price: 3 680 rub.
Foundation for makeup Fluid Master Primer Base Lissante Perfection, Giorgio Armani
The choice of the makeup artist of Beauty Detox Bar Pavel Tul
I have been working with primers for about five years. All clients are satisfied, because thanks to these tools, they can do makeup in Moscow and fly with it to an event, even to another country.
I apply the Giorgio Armani base before using the foundation to make the skin look velvety and even. The coverage is lightweight and creates a natural glow to the skin.
Price: about 3,000 rubles.
Highlighting primer Lumi Magique Primer Pure Light, L'Oréal
The choice of special correspondent BeautyHack Maria Alferova
A liquid meringue-like primer is a favorite of makeup artists. If you want the effect of illuminated skin from within, this is for you. The shine looks natural, without oily sheen. Can be applied to the entire face or to individual areas as a highlighter.
Price: 685 rub.
