Show them what you’re capable of accomplishing this year, starting with achieving healthy skin. Get a confident glow with the right toner, moisturiser, and serum to start your school day, and be a problem solver with Lancôme’s skincare solutions for your every beauty concern. Start by studying the best skincare for twenty-somethings and check out our list of recommended skincare school supplies to use daily and keep handy in your beauty kit.
TONER
There’s a new kid on the block this year ready to school your skin: CLARIFIQUE DUAL ESSENCE. It’s our toner of choice for reaching ultimate skin clarity and getting clear skin to start the school year. Part of Lancôme’s green science beauty innovation, it uses enzymes to polish by eliminating dead cells charged with melanin and accelerates surface skin renewal. Results are visible as soon as one week, and full beauty benefits are apparent after one month of use. Make it your part of your end of summer routine to be ready to start the school year with clear skin. It also minimizes the appearance of pores and evens its overall tone for a clean complexion to solidify your fresh start.
SERUM
Welcome to Serum 101! Serum is an essential skincare step and opportunity for your skin. Applied after cleansing and before moisturising, care for your complexion with a formula concentrated on your skin’s needs. ADVANCED GÉNIFIQUE is our intro to serums, for every skin type and every age. More than just a hyaluronic acid or vitamin C serum, it delivers millions of prebiotics & probiotics to strengthen skin’s microbiome and support barrier function. These improve skin’s quality and radiance, smoothness and evenness, and fight off fine lines and wrinkles. Or, if you want to be an anti-aging overachiever, opt for a high performance serum like RÉNERGIE H.C.F. TRIPLE SERUM. This vitamin C serum also uses hyaluronic acid, ferulic acid, and niacinamide, fused together to make an anti-aging concentrate to restore skin layer by layer. How’s that for a chemistry lesson?
MOISTURIZER
Moisturizer might be the most important step of your back to school skincare routine. Let us recommend two star students. The first is HYDRA ZEN ANTI-STRESS cream. The start of school can be an exciting but stressful time, so help your skin start the year strong with this soothing moisturizer. It gives all day hydration to help protect from external influences like drying classroom air conditioning. It will leave your skin hydrated, soft, and radiant thanks to its exclusive plant complex enriched with Rose de France, and is suitable for all skin types. For dryer skin looking to do extra credit to fight signs of aging, choose ABSOLUE SOFT CREAM as your back to school moisturizer. This rich rose anti-aging cream revitalizes to make skin luminous and smooth, while also plumping and smoothing wrinkles.
