The Top 10 Prime Day Skincare Deals Aestheticians Recommend Buying
Amazon's biggest sale of the year has begun—and it's full of major Prime Day skincare deals. But just because a product's on sale doesn't necessarily mean it's worth investing in. With that in mind, we asked four aestheticians to share the formulas they recommend adding to your cart this Prime Day. These are some of the 10 Prime Day skincare deals professional aestheticians recommend buying this ... More week. Illustration: Forbes / Photo: Retailers Turning to products that have been vetted by aestheticians can help eliminate some of the trial and error that comes with finding the right skincare routine for you. From Qure's LED light therapy face mask at 16% off to Farmacy's cleansing balm for 25% off, here's what the experts recommend shopping this Amazon Prime Day. Dr. Dennis Gross Alpha Beta Universal Daily Peel: Now $74, Was $92 (20% Off) Laneige Lip Glowy Balm: Now $13, Was $19 (30% Off) Rahua Body Oil: Now $48, Was $60 (20% Off) Qure Q-Rejuvalight Pro Facewear: Now $276, Was $329 (16% Off) Laneige Water Sleeping Mask: Now $22, Was $32 (30% Off) Raw Sugar Simply Body Wash: Now $6, Was $8 (29% Off) Farmacy Makeup Remover Cleansing Balm: Now $13, Was $18 (30% Off) Supergoop Glowscreen SPF 40: Now $30, Was $38 (20% Off) Remedy Super Stacked Healthy Aging Treatment: Now $30, Was $38 (20% Off) Tatcha The Rice Polish: Now $48, Was $68 (30% Off) Celebrity facialist Sarah Akram recommends grabbing a box of the Dr. Dennis Gross Alpha Beta Peel pads, since they use a patented two-step blend of AHAs and BHAs to smooth texture, minimize pores and boost radiance. Additional ingredients, such as antioxidants and retinol, also strengthen and improve the skin. 'It delivers consistent, professional-grade results at home without downtime,' she says. If you already own the cult-favorite Laneige Lip Sleeping Mask, celebrity aesthetician Alexandra Wagner suggests trying this other formula from the brand. It's a nourishing tinted lip balm with a glossy finish. She appreciates how the tube packaging makes it easy to throw in different bags for on-the-go applications. If you're looking for a body oil that boosts glow without feeling greasy, intensely relieves dryness, boosts elasticity and repairs a damaged skin barrier, Akram likes this Rahua formula. 'It features a blend of lightweight, fast‑absorbing Amazonian symbiotic oils—like guayusa, rahua and sacha inchi—and is rich in omegas, antioxidants and vitamins C and E.' The Qure LED face mask is a favorite of board-certified dermatologist and Remedy founder Dr. Muneeb Shah. 'It's completely customizable through their app, allowing you to personalize treatments for each area of the face and up to five facial zones. It also includes five different light wavelengths that target skin concerns like fine lines, acne, collagen loss and more. Plus, it's completely hands-free and each treatment only takes three minutes.' 'Laneige's Water Sleeping Mask delivers a surge of overnight hydration thanks to squalane, niacinamide and hyaluronic acid. It plumps, calms and repairs the skin barrier while you sleep,' says Akram. 'It also gives a visible glow and barrier boost by morning, making it perfect for proactive, treatment-ready clients.' Summer is a great time to stock up on body wash, and Akram recommends this option from Raw Sugar. 'This body wash is packed with clean, cold-pressed plant extracts that gently cleanse while locking in moisture—leaving skin soft, refreshed and nourished without any harsh chemicals,' she says. One of Dr. Shah's top cleansing balm recommendations, this formula is super effective at deeply cleansing the skin to remove excess dirt, impurities and makeup. 'After removing impurities, it leaves the skin silky smooth and hydrated thanks to its super green antioxidant ingredients,' he says. Not only is this Supergoop product an editor favorite, but Wagner is also a fan. Suitable for wearing alone or underneath makeup, the SPF 40 formula protects against harmful UV rays and blue light. It also features key ingredients like hyaluronic acid, vitamin B5 and niacinamide to soothe the skin. 'This is my powerhouse product that combines clinically-proven ingredients like retinaldehyde, Argireline (a peptide known to mimic Botox-like effects), Matrixyl, glycolic acid, lactic acid and antioxidants,' says Dr. Shah. 'It's an all-in-one product that promotes healthy aging by improving wrinkles, fine lines, texture, elasticity, uneven skin tone and other major skin concerns.' Akram named Tatcha's exfoliating treatment as another one of her top Prime Day picks. 'The Rice Polish is a favorite for its gentle enzymatic exfoliation—it refines texture without disrupting the skin barrier. It's ideal for maintaining a healthy glow between professional treatments,' she says.

Alia Bhatt's honest skincare routine: 5 must-have beauty products from her vanity
For Alia Bhatt, skincare is a non-negotiable part of her daily routine. While her stunning looks leave everyone in awe, the secret lies in the simple yet essential regimen she follows without fail. In one of the videos on her YouTube channel, the diva offered a glimpse into the detailed steps of her skincare routine and even listed the products she uses. Check out the 5 must-have beauty products from Alia Bhatt 's vanity that are absolute essentials for a good skincare routine: 1. Jade roller/skin massager The first step in Alia Bhatt's skincare regime is using a jade roller (also known as a skin massager) across her cheekbones and jawline. It helps calm the skin, boosts blood circulation, and reduces signs of fatigue. 2. Eye cream Alia works through a hectic schedule which often leads to less sleep. As a result, it causes dark circles, which is where a good under-eye cream comes in handy. It also helps with dryness around the eyes. She applies the Farmacy Dew It All Total Eye Cream before any other product and allows it to settle down a bit before proceeding with other items. 3. Watermelon glow niacinamide Alia Bhatt credits niacinamide in her skincare routine for reducing fine lines and protecting skin from pollution. It also helps regenerate and hydrate the skin. The Raazi actress uses Glow Recipe's Watermelon Glow Niacinamide Drops, applying it generously all over her face. 4. Watermelon juice moisturizer Moisturizing is a non-negotiable step in Alia Bhatt's skincare routine. She generously applies moisturizer to keep her skin hydrated throughout long shooting days. The diva uses Glow Recipe's Watermelon Juice Moisturizer, applying it all over her face, neck, and hands. 5. Fotoprotector Fusion Water Sunscreen The final and most crucial step in Alia Bhatt's skincare routine is sunscreen. She advises applying it everywhere—even indoors—since harmful sun rays can penetrate and damage the skin. Alia uses ISDIN's Fotoprotector Fusion Water Sunscreen with broad-spectrum SPF 50, generously applying it all over her face and neck before makeup.

The secret power of salicylic acid, unsung superhero of skincare routines: a guide to its benefits and uses, and to finding complementary products for your skin type
Skincare has its fair share of fleeting trends and buzzy ingredients that rise to fame faster than the latest celebrity skincare line, only to fade into the background as the next big thing takes centre stage . But every now and then, an ingredient comes along with true staying power. Enter salicylic acid, the unassuming but undeniably effective beta-hydroxy acid (BHA) that has been quietly holding down its A-list skincare status for years. Salicylic acid takes a no-nonsense approach to skincare. Pictured is Farmacy's Deep Sweep 2% BHA Pure Cleansing Toner. Photo: Handout For those grappling with oily skin, persistent breakouts, or that oh-so-charming constellation of blackheads, salicylic acid isn't just another product on the shelf: it's the go-to, the trusted ally, the non-negotiable. And unlike so many exfoliants that stick to surface-level theatrics, salicylic acid takes a no-nonsense approach, diving headfirst into the trenches, cutting through the chaos of clogged pores and breaking up the party where acne truly begins – deep inside your skin's oily underbelly. What is salicylic acid? Salicylic acid can slip through layers of sebum and dead skin cells to break apart oily build-up. Photo: Handout Advertisement Salicylic acid, also known as BHA, is an oil-soluble exfoliant that goes where others simply can't. 'While alpha-hydroxy acids (AHAs) like glycolic acid stick to surface-level exfoliation, salicylic acid dives deeper, targeting your skin's oil glands with more precision,' certified dermatologist Dr Amy Blake says. Its unique structure enables it to slip through layers of sebum and dead skin cells, breaking apart the build-up that clogs pores and ignites inflammation. What are the benefits of using it? Salicylic acid also helps soothe the skin. Pictured is Naturium's BHA Liquid Exfoliant 2%. Photo: Handout And salicylic acid doesn't stop at unclogging pores. Blake explains that acne-prone skin is often inflamed, 'and that's where salicylic acid's anti-inflammatory superpowers come in, swooping down to dial back redness and soothe irritation', she says, the acid delivering the skincare equivalent of a tranquil spa day. And while calming your skin and clearing out pores, it also works behind the scenes, gently loosening the bonds between dead skin cells to help them shed naturally, leading to fewer breakouts, a smoother surface and an overall complexion that feels balanced and refreshed. Who should – and shouldn't – use it? Salicylic acid is not suited to all skin types. Pictured is Medik8 Press & Clear Exfoliating 2% BHA Tonic Gentle-Release Salicylic Acid. Photo: Handout
