Well, 2020 has already welcomed a bevy of new beauty launches and skin care we can't wait to try out, and the year has barely begun. There are brand-new (and new and improved) creams, masks, and more, but since no one is handing us a blank check anytime soon, we need to be smart about which skincare trends we're going to try our hands at this year . . . or at least which products deserve a spot on our first-to-buy list.
We looked through the newest arrivals at Sephora to see which items were getting the most loves and rave reviews from other shoppers to clue us in to what's popular already. We focussed on new skin care (even though there's a ton of new hair care, makeup, and bath goodies, too). Check out the top-rated skincare products that recently arrived on Sephora's shelves ahead and see for yourself.
Laneige Hypoallergenic Cica Sleeping Mask
The new Laneige Hypoallergenic Cica Sleeping Mask ($34) is already rather popular with other Sephora shoppers, who've given it 4.8 stars (with 98 percent also saying they'd recommend it to a friend). The overnight mask is great for dry or sensitive faces, as there's fermented forest yeast extract —aka cica — to moisturise and strengthen skin while you're getting some shut-eye.
Dermalogica Biolumin-C Vitamin C Eye Serum
If you're looking to brighten things up under your eyes, Sephora shoppers give top marks to this Dermalogica Biolumin-C Vitamin C Eye Serum ($70). It's a lightweight serum that hydrates and firms the under-eye area, while adding in chia seed oil to help de-puff and nurture, too.
Volition Beauty Hibiscus Unspottable Correcting Oil
This Volition Beauty Hibiscus Unspottable Correcting Oil ($49) earns high praise from people who've picked the product up at Sephora. (Ninety-seven percent of them would recommend it to a friend.) The treatment oil takes on your dark spots with hibiscus flower and licorice root and also leaves skin nourished and smooth.
Algenist Genius Collagen Calming Relief
This new Algenist Genius Collagen Calming Relief ($58) has already earned high praise from other Sephora shoppers. It's a gentle treatment packed with active vegan collagen to help skin lock in more moisture and to reduce any signs of irritation.
Fresh Lotus Youth Preserve Moisturiser
Both the Fresh Lotus Youth Preserve Moisturiser ($19-$48) and the Lotus Youth Preserve Eye Cream ($45) have earned top marks from Sephora shoppers who purchased them. They now feature the brand's new multiaction "super lotus," which protects against free radicals, fights visible signs of ageing, and strengthens skin (on the face and under-eye area).
Herbivore Prism 20% AHA + 5% BHA Exfoliating Glow Facial
The new Herbivore Prism 20% AHA + 5% BHA Exfoliating Glow Facial ($58) has already earned more than 17,000 loves from Sephora shoppers and mostly five-star reviews. The jelly-textured rinse-off mask packs in both plant-based AHAs and BHAs to exfoliate skin along with rose water and aloe vera for an added cooling effect.
Lancôme Rénergie Lift Multi-Action Ultra Dark Spot Correcting Cream SPF 30
If you're struggling with dark spots, 98 percent of the Sephora shoppers who picked up this Lancôme Rénergie Lift Multi-Action Ultra Dark Spot Correcting Cream SPF 30 ($109) would recommend it to you, too. Not only does it hydrate skin and tackle those sun spots, it's also a lightweight sunscreen for extra protection against the elements.
Josie Maran Argan Beta-Retinoid Pink Algae Serum
If your face hasn't responded well to other retinol products (or if sensitive skin makes you scared to try it), other Sephora shoppers are recommending this Josie Maran Argan Beta-Retinoid Pink Algae Serum ($68). It actually gets its pro-retinol serum from beta-carotene-rich pink algae . . . and not a chemical.
Milk Makeup Vegan Milk Moisturiser
As you may assume, the Milk Makeup Vegan Milk Moisturiser ($38) has a selection of moisturising vegan milks inside, including milk from figs, shea butter, oats, and even milk coming from desert plants. There's also a new Vegan Milk Moisturiser Mini option ($19), and thousands of Sephora shoppers are loving them both so far.
Ole Henriksen Truth Juice Daily Cleanser
This Ole Henriksen Truth Juice Daily Cleanser ($28) has already been marked with more than 12,000 hearts from Sephora shoppers. The juice-based, citrus-scented gel cleans your face — even removes your waterproof makeup! — without stripping skin in the process.
Supergoop Unseen Sunscreen SPF 40
The antioxidant-rich, oil-free Supergoop Unseen Sunscreen SPF 40 ($34) can serve as both a primer and a sun protector. The new product also protects against technology's blue light and is already popular at Sephora.
Peace Out Microneedling Anti-Wrinkle Retinol Patches
These Peace Out Microneedling Anti-Wrinkle Retinol Patches ($28) are dissolving patches packed with retinol, peptides, and vitamin C. Since they can eliminate fine lines and wrinkles with zero needles, it's no wonder they've earned more than 23,000 loves.
Dr. Brandt Skincare Dark Spots No More Triple Acid Spot Minimizing Concentrate
The top-rated Dr. Brandt Skincare Dark Spots No More Triple Acid Spot Minimizing Concentrate ($68) tackles all types of dark spots like sun spots, acne scars, and melasma. It uses a 15-percent blend of three acids to fight those marks before, during, and after their formation.
Glow Recipe Banana Soufflé Moisture Cream
More than 27,000 people have shown the new Glow Recipe Banana Soufflé Moisture Cream ($39) some love on Sephora's site — and those reviewers are crazy for its subtle banana scent. Powered by the potassium- and magnesium-rich fruit, the lotion also hydrates skin and balances out irritation, too.
Murad Retinol Youth Renewal Night Cream
The new Murad Retinol Youth Renewal Night Cream ($82) is gentle enough to use daily and fights signs of ageing you may not be able to see yet. In fact, several Sephora shoppers have labeled it the best night cream ever . . . but you can be the judge of that.
Tatcha The Serum Stick: Treatment and Touch Up Balm
It's easier than ever to use this Tatcha The Serum Stick: Treatment and Touch Up Balm ($48), as it's like a serum in stick form. There are already more than 1,000 reviews for the sqaulane-rich product at Sephora, where it's earned high marks for helping sensitive skin, fighting dryness, and bringing back radiance.
Peter Thomas Roth Vital-E Microbiome Age Defence Eye Cream
The top-rated Peter Thomas Roth Vital-E Microbiome Age Defence Eye Cream ($55) fights wrinkles and dark circles in the under-eye area whether they came from pollution, climate changes, blue light, or something else entirely. This new product uses caffeine, probiotics, and vitamin E to do all that, while also supporting your skin.
Farsáli Liquid Powder Oil Balancing Serum
The new Farsáli Liquid Powder Oil Balancing Serum ($54) starts out as an oil and transforms into a powder on your face. While that happens, French pink clay absorbs skin's excess oil (and helps to balance future oil production), so it's no surprise that Sephora shoppers with oily skin are giving this product top marks.
First Aid Beauty FAB Pharma Arnica Relief and Rescue Mask
The soothing First Aid Beauty FAB Pharma Arnica Relief and Rescue Mask ($32) helps relieve stressed, dehydrated skin with arnica and calendula flowers. It's actually a mask that is not meant to be rinsed off — just leave it on for 15 minutes and massage in any leftover product for soft, dewy skin.
Drunk Elephant F-Balm Electrolyte Waterfacial Mask
Nearly 30,000 Sephora shoppers have added this new Drunk Elephant F-Balm Electrolyte Waterfacial Mask ($52) to their loves already. There's a blend of electrolytes to maintain skin's hydration and improve its barrier overnight, plus it cools as it goes on to offer soothing relief to sensitive or irritated skin.
Biossance Squalane + 10% Lactic Acid Resurfacing Night Serum
The top-rated Biossance Squalane + 10% Lactic Acid Resurfacing Night Serum ($62) uses lactic acid and clover to fight environmental stressors and smooth skin overnight. This new serum also features the squalane featured in other Biossance products to keep your face hydrated at the same time.
