The Necks Best Thing: TriPeptide-R Neck Repair
Why it’s worth it: It’s important to give the delicate skin on your neck just as much love as its upstairs neighbor (your face). We love the SkinCeuticals TriPeptide-R Neck Repair, a retinol cream formulated with 0.2% pure retinol, that targets and slows the appearance of crepiness, wrinkles, and discoloration. As its name suggests, this neck treatment is infused with a 2.5% tripeptide complex and 5% glaucine complex (derived from the yellow-horned poppy plant) to increase skin elasticity and firmness.
Editor’s tip: Sure, this product is meant for your neck, but SkinCeuticals also recommends applying it to your décolleté and jawline and using an upward motion to massage this intensive treatment onto your skin.

Your New Favorite Cleanser: Simply Clean
Why it’s worth it: If you’re shopping a new cleanser, SkinCeuticals’s Simply Clean is a perfect intro to the brand. Suitable for all skin types, the formula removes waterproof makeup, curbs excess sebum, and gently, chemically exfoliates textured skin like a champ. You can thank a mélange of amino acid surfactants, a 6% concentration of sulfonic acid, aloe extracts, glycerin, orange oil, citric acid, and chamomile.
Editor’s tip: It’s gentle enough to use on recovering skin after an in-office procedure.
Key ingredients: amino acid surfactants, sulfonic acid, aloe extracts, glycerin, orange oil, citric acid, chamomile | Who it’s for: everyone | Fragrance-free: yes
The Pre-Snooze Serum: Resveratrol B E
Why it’s worth it: SkinCeuticals’s Resveratrol B E is another powerful serum that addresses signs of aging, thanks to the titular resveratrol, an antioxidant that protects and defends your skin against free radicals. This lightweight nighttime serum is also infused with anti-inflammatory and moisturizing vitamin E for a softer, smoother, and less puffy complexion, and baicalin (that’s the “B”), a potent antioxidant derived from the Baikal skullcap plant. One Allure tester previously noted that the product “goes on cool and wet and absorbs in seconds.”
