Best Barbara Sturm Products at Sephora
Are You Familiar With All the Luxe Dr. Barbara Sturm Products Sold at Sephora Yet?
As POPSUGAR editors, we independently select and write about stuff we love and think you'll like too. If you buy a product we have recommended, we may receive affiliate commission, which in turn supports our work.
If there's one thing Dr. Barbara Sturm knows, it's skin care and science. OK, that's two things, but this doctor knows — and combines — them both in her medical background and her beauty treatments. With experience in anti-inflammatory medicine and a focus on nonsurgical antiageing skin treatments, Dr. Sturm created her Molecular Cosmetics skincare line to include everything from eye creams to enzyme cleansers, all using nonaggressive ingredients.
Lucky for us, that means these luxe, scientifically proven products are available to help our skin woes like dryness, hyperpigmentation, and premature ageing — and can be found right at Sephora. The products are popular with celebrities and POPSUGAR editors alike, so we went through the items sold at Sephora and picked out the skincare ones that stood out, including face creams and foam cleansers.
