A routine for the best skincare products for dry skin only needs three steps: a cream or balm cleanser, a hydrating serum or essence, and a rich face cream. Here is what I would put in each step and how to layer them.

The best mascara for sensitive eyes is simple, gentle to remove and replaced often, and a tubing formula is often the easiest on irritated lids. These are the everyday mascaras I would patch test first, the tubing mascaras that slide off with warm water, and the gentle removers that finish the job.

An acne safe moisturizer is one the brand labels non-comedogenic. I compare gels, barrier creams and light SPF, and quote what each brand says.

A generation grew up stripping their faces with alcohol and wondering why the shine came back harder. The best toner for oily skin regulates rather than removes, usually with a mild acid and no drying agents. These are the modern version and my personal favs

Clinique Black Honey began as a lip gloss shade in 1971 and became the Almost Lipstick in 1989, a sheer berry that reads differently on every mouth. Here it is with the rest of the Clinique counter and four sheer tints that share its easygoing idea.

The best eye cream for dark circles depends on whether the area looks shadowed, puffy, or simply tired.

Editorial
The best toner for oily skin works between cleansing and moisturizer, clearing out what a face wash leaves behind rather than just tightening pores for an hour. For years the fix was an alcohol heavy astringent, which strips skin so aggressively that it produces even more oil to compensate. This edit compares eight acid based formulas instead, from gentle, regular use options to stronger ones meant for active breakouts.

These are the best hand creams for dry skin, from rich salves and fragrance-free tubes to scented favorites, masks and travel sizes. I started with a 1969 fishermen's recipe, because the best ones begin with a real problem.

Editorial
The best skincare for oily skin is a gentle cleanser, one active and a light moisturizer. Oily skin gets sold long routines, and I explain why a short one gives you something to actually diagnose.

Editorial
My pick for the best exfoliator for acne prone skin here is Paula's Choice Skin Perfecting 2% BHA Exfoliating Toner, which is built around salicylic acid. I also sort scrubs, liquid exfoliants and pads, with one rule: acid at night, sunscreen every morning.

Editorial
Clinique Beyond Perfecting Foundation + Concealer is a fragrance-free, full-coverage 2-in-1 that the brand says wears for 24 hours. Here is the rest of the Clinique base line, the longwear foundations worth comparing, and the concealers, powders and sponges that finish it.

Clinique lotion vs gel: Dramatically Different Moisturizing Lotion+ and the Moisturizing Gel are both made for barrier repair. I compare them with Moisture Surge, the gel-cream, and the treatment creams.
