Dermalogica Active Moist Moisturizer

Moisturizers USA Approx. $49

A professional-channel product that predates the current skincare conversation entirely, and still sells because facialists keep using it. It is a light lotion that makes no corrective claim, and it does contain fragrance, which we would rather tell you now than have you discover it.
