Few skincare ingredients have become as ubiquitous as niacinamide. From drugstore shelves to social feeds, niacinamide serums are everywhere, and their evangelists make a persuasive case for adding them to your skincare routine. Admittedly, I’ve never truly succumbed to the hype—with a history of skin troubles including acne and hyperpigmentation, I’ve developed a penchant for stronger stuff. Retinols, peels, acids, and peroxides: there are a few actives I haven’t tried to save my skin. But consulting the experts, I learned that by underestimating niacinamide, I may have overlooked the simplest savior of them all.

Quick: How many bottles of hand cream would you guess are within 20 feet of you at this very moment? There’s the travel-size tube stashed in your purse, the jumbo pump on the edge of the bathtub, the lavender-scented salve in your nightstand that helps lull you to sleep…Shall we go on? If smooth, supple skin is a priority, you probably have at least half a dozen half-used tubes, bottles, and pots floating around. And with the bright summer sun now shining, we’re going to recommend adding one more to your collection: a hand cream with SPF. Because unless you’re diligent about applying sunscreen to your hands daily (and reapplying every two hours) they’re likely being left exposed to the elements, including damaging UV rays.

With all the skin woes we’re inundated with—acne-prone girly (yes, face and body) here—sometimes, a girl wishes she could go back to the days of using sugary body washes that leave her smelling good, without worry of a breakout cropping up or triggering any other skin troubles. I love a fragrance as much as the next person, but often, wearing some of the best women’s perfumes alone just isn’t enough to give you the projection (how far your scent can travel) you desire.

Marriage is a significant life decision that requires extreme commitment, understanding, devotion and a heck of a lot of compromise. While many people dream of a lifelong partnership, others find the concept of marriage challenging. Astrology offers insights into personality traits and behaviors, suggesting that certain zodiac signs might face more difficulties in maintaining a traditional marital relationship.

But that comes as no surprise, considering their impressive resumes; these face serums not only brighten the skin and fade dark spots but also fight other signs of aging, like fine lines and wrinkles. “Vitamin C also works as an antioxidant, helping to protect your skin from environmental aggressors,” says Julie Monti, director of education at Amorepacific U.S. At this point, what can’t they do?

In my years-long quest for glass skin, I’ve determined Korean products pave the way to a clear, hydrated, and plump complexion.

I have a confession to make: Last year I made a silly skin-care mistake that I, a journalist who’s researched and written about beauty for over a decade, shouldn’t have made. I chose not to listen to my dermatologist when he told me my skin was too sensitive for tretinoin (a type of retinol), and I went behind his back and got a prescription. You know what happened next—I learned my lesson. My skin turned into a dry, red, splotchy, scaly mess, and stayed that way for months. I was only recently able to bring it back to a healthy state after replacing tretinoin with a different anti-aging product perfect for those of us with sensitive skin: SkinCeuticals’s Metacell Renewal B3 Niacinamide Moisturizer.
