When it comes to self-care and image, skincare shares surprising similarities with fashion. Both aspects act as unique expressions, reflecting our inner selves and current moods.
However, there is one big difference: wearing the wrong shirt might not cause harm. But using the wrong skincare product...well, the consequences can be quite the opposite.
So, what are the latest skincare trends? Which ones are best suited for your skin type? And how can you determine if a trend is worth incorporating into your regimen? Let's delve deeper into this exciting world.
The Ever-Evolving World of Skincare
Skincare trends, much like fashion trends, are constantly evolving. From the 10-step Korean skincare routine to the rise of clean beauty and sustainable products, there's always something new on the horizon. So, what's the next big thing in skincare? Dive into the hottest trends rocking the beauty world!
Clean and Sustainable Beauty
Just as eco-friendly fashion brands are gaining popularity, the skincare world is also embracing clean and sustainable beauty practices. Consumers are becoming more conscious of the ingredients in their products and opting for brands that prioritize natural, cruelty-free, and environmentally friendly formulations.
All of our Jess Beauty products are certified GMO-free, which means that they are made without genetically modified organisms or ingredients, providing a naturally wholesome experience. And wait, there’s more; they are also cruelty-free and paraben-free!
Personalized Skincare
Imagine your entire wardrobe custom-designed by a top fashion house – that's the level of personalization hitting skincare! Advancements in technology allow brands to craft bespoke customized skincare solutions perfectly tailored to your skin type, concerns, and desired results.
Skin Cycling
Skin Cycling simplifies skincare with a four-night loop. Night one focuses on exfoliation, prepping your skin. Night two introduces retinoids to target specific concerns. The following two nights prioritize rest and hydration, allowing your skin to recover. This cycle repeats, seamlessly integrating with your daily routine.
By incorporating skin cycling, we strengthen our skin's barrier, allowing it to better defend itself against environmental aggressors. If you want to learn more about the Skin Cycle, click here.
Korean Beauty Routine
The Korean skincare routine, or K-beauty for short, has become a global phenomenon with its unique approach and innovative products. K-beauty goes beyond cleansing and dives into a multi-step process focused on achieving radiant, hydrated, and youthful-looking skin. From the iconic double cleanse and gentle exfoliation to layering lightweight formulas and targeted serums, K-beauty prioritizes pampering your skin for a healthy glow.

Finding Your Perfect Match: Skincare trends suited for your complexion
Your personal style is a vibrant canvas for self-expression. It's all about feeling confident and letting your personality shine through your wardrobe. Skincare, however, takes a different approach. While it can certainly boost your confidence with a healthy glow, the focus here is less on personal expression and more on providing your skin with the essential building blocks it needs to thrive.
Oily or Acne-Prone Skin
If you have oily or acne-prone skin, look for lightweight products like our Post Workout Gel Mask that won't clog pores. Also, incorporating retinol into your routine can help regulate oil production and prevent breakouts.
Are you new in the retinol universe? Don’t worry! You can start with our Age Rewind Retinol Serum at night, a gentle blend of bakuchiol, niacinamide, and panthenol. These ingredients work in harmony to soften your skin while providing hydration.
For more advanced users, we recommend Timeless Skin Retinol Cream, a very potent retinol formula designed to elevate your anti-aging game to new heights.
Dry or Sensitive Skin
For those with dry or sensitive skin, a gentle cleanser and rich moisturizers are the recipe for success. Start and finish the day refreshing yourself with Face Reset Cleanser, a revolutionary soft gel cleanser made with moisturizers and naturally derived ingredients that will nourish and cleanse your skin.
Apply a few drops of Shine Bright Serum to your face and neck, gently massaging it in. This formula helps revive your skin, leaving it with a brighter and more even appearance.
Craving deep hydration and improved elasticity for dry or sensitive body skin? Our Silky Smooth Body Balm might be your perfect match! Enriched with Vitamin E, known for its moisturizing properties, and Calendula Extract, known for its soothing benefits, this balm delivers a luxurious experience while leaving your skin feeling soft, supple, and beautifully nourished.

Combination Skin
If you have combination skin, balance is key. Use a Face Reset to remove impurities without stripping your skin's natural oils, followed by a lightweight moisturizer. And don't forget to protect your skin from UV/ UBA damage with a broad-spectrum SPF.
Remember: sunscreen is your skin's best defense against inflammation and redness. A broad-spectrum SPF daily, such as Let it Sun or Sun Drops (click here to buy SPF 50+ and here to buy 30+) can help them to protect their skin while keeping it fresh.

Found a new skincare craze? Here's how to tell if it's right for you
The skincare world is a whirlwind of innovation! New trends seem to pop up daily, leaving us wondering: is it worth the hype? Just like fashion fads, not every skincare trend will be a universal hit. But fear not, glow-getters! Here's your guide to navigating the beauty buzz and discovering the trends that will truly transform your skin.
Research and reviews
Before jumping on the bandwagon, consult a dermatologist. And if you can’t do that, then do your research. Read reviews from trusted sources, consult skincare experts, and educate yourself about the ingredients and benefits of the trend in question.
Patch Test
Before incorporating a new product or trend into your routine, always perform a patch test to check for any adverse reactions. This simple step can save you from potential skin woes down the line.
Listen to Your Skin
At the end of the day, your skin knows best. Pay attention to how your skin reacts to new products or trends. If something doesn't feel right, it's okay to press pause and reevaluate!
