Product Information

Retinoids are the go-to anti-aging ingredients recommended by dermatologists and skin experts. They are clinically proven to minimize the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, improve uneven skin tone, restore skin firmness, and shrink the appearance of enlarged pores.

This depends on the source. Squalane can be derived from both plants and animals. Most squalane used in skincare comes from plants. The formula includes a high concentration of the emollient squalane. Squalane is super-light, non-greasy, and sinks into the skin fast, yet it helps the skin to instantly feel soft and moisturized.One problem we noticed with Honest Beauty Tinted Lip Balm is that the color fades and dries after just a few hours. But this isn’t a huge deal; just carry the product with you during the day so you can reapply when necessary. Another problem with this cleanser is that it does not fully remove makeup and dirt in one wash. But this may not be a problem if you don’t wear makeup, or if you follow a double cleansing routine to remove excess sebum and oily makeup first. Diglucosyl gallic acid is a synthetic molecule that’s activated by the skin’s microbiome and functions as an antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and tyrosinase inhibitor. Tyrosinase is the key enzyme involved in the production of melanin (skin pigment). So by inhibiting this enzyme, diglucosyl gallic acid can help to reduce dark spots and promote a more even skin tone.

Oh and did we mention it’s available in 9 shades? Ranging from deep to fair, these blendable, luminous shades are designed with 5% pigment to complement a wide range of skin tones and undertones. Plus, the tint means you don’t have to worry about a white cast from the mineral sunscreens! In a study published by the manufacturer, it was found that using 2% Brightenyl for 12 weeks controlled skin tone via the inhibition of melanin synthesis as well as the modulation of skin brightness, yellowness, and redness. Bottom Line: A moisturizing balm with a base of sunflower oil and nourishing emollients to keep skin soft and moisturized. Honest Beauty Organic Beauty Facial Oil All of this is to say that the low concentration of vitamin C in Honest Beauty’s serum is pretty disappointing.Despite vitamin C being in the name of this product, the formula actually contains a very low concentration of vitamin C (less than 1%). The Honest Beauty blushes are very strongly pigmented, but I found the formula to be overly creamy. While this can have moisturization benefits, I prefer a cream blush that is just a normal amount of creamy or on the drier side. This one feels a little bit greasy for me personally.

The Honest Hydrogel cream is designed to hydrate, refresh, and cool the skin without feeling too heavy when applied. Its formula is infused with many good-for-you skincare ingredients like hyaluronic acid, squalene, and jojoba esters. types of Hyaluronic Acid with different molecular weights designed to help bind + retain moisture in different layers of the skinEven if you don’t have a full blown reaction to the ingredient, the damage may still be occurring every day. Ultimately, this can cause mild problems for your skin in the short term and worse problems in the long term. What Are The Top 10 Best Honest Beauty Skincare Products? Vitamin C also helps fade dark spots, evens out skin tone, and increases radiance. As if that wasn’t enough, research suggests that when vitamin C is applied to the skin, it significantly reverses aging-related structural changes by influencing collagen and elastin synthesis. The K-Beauty 10-step skincare routines were all the rage a couple years ago, but now it’s evident that consumers want simplicity. And that’s exactly what the Honest Beauty CC Cream will give you as it combines 3 products — sunscreen, moisturizer, and primer — into one formula. If there’s one product that put Honest Beauty on our radar, it’s the Honest Beauty Magic Balm. Created by Jessica Alba herself, Honest Beauty was born out of a gap that Alba saw in the market. She wanted to create accessible, thoughtfully designed beauty and wellness products that didn’t contain any of the suspicious ingredients that she had already been avoiding in her products for years. The result was a budget friendly, green beauty brand that focuses on healthy, natural ingredients that benefit the skin on a number of levels. Their cult classic Magic Balm was designed to be that product that you can use pretty much everywhere, whether you’re at home, at the office, or running errands around town. This convenient formula can be used on the lips as a lip balm, on the highpoints of the cheekbones as a glowy highlight without any sparkle, on the cuticles to hydrate, protect and encourage nail growth, as well as applied all over the body to sort out all types of dryness.

Founded by actress Jessica Alba, The Honest Company started with household products and baby items with an emphasis on clean ingredients. The brand expanded in 2015 with the launch of Honest Beauty, a line of clean skincare, hair care, and cosmetic products. Bottom Line: A rich face cream with standard ingredients (humectants, emollients, silicones) that feels nice on the skin, but the presence of fragrance may cause skin sensitivity. Honest Beauty Calm + Heal Melting Balm Honest Beauty Gel Cleanser feels like thin jelly, which I have nothing against, but combined with the fact that there is not much cleansing action and mine had a slightly off-putting scent, I did not enjoy the Honest Beauty cleanser. This is coming from a beauty aficionado who can be very forgiving of gentle cleansers that don’t even have any cleansing agents in the ingredients, as they tend to be filled with lots of great plant herbs and extracts that are skin-beneficial. But the Honest Beauty one is not a product I’d personally buy again. There’s just a lot of other cleansers out there at the same price point that I’d prefer to get over Honest Beauty’s. All clay masks can help to absorb excess oil, reduce shine, and unclog pores. Plus, the clay helps to gently exfoliate the skin while you’re washing the mask off. Hydration doesn't have to be heavy. This award-winning, bestselling, lightweight, moisture-release water cream refreshes and cools on application as it leaves a dewy finish. Infused with Jojoba + Squalane to help hydrate and soothe thirst, while 2 sizes of Hyaluronic Acid help soften and firm skin (reducing the appearance of fine lines). Drink up, babes.The formula includes plenty of silky emollients and silicones, as well as synthetic mica to diffuse the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, blemishes, pores, and uneven skin tone for a smooth, radiant complexion. Bottom Line: The Honest Beauty CC Cream is a multi-tasking product that provides SPF 30 protection while also color-correcting, moisturizing, and hiding imperfections. Honest Beauty Vitamin C Radiance Serum A multi-purpose balm is easily one of the most versatile products to keep in your medicine cabinet. These types of products can be utilized all over the body for a multitude of different applications. Balms can help with dry skin, irritation, and protection, and can also add a dewy, fresh glow to collarbones, cheekbones, cupid’s bow or lips. But, unfortunately, most balm-like multipurpose products contain high doses of petrolatum, which many skincare lovers choose to avoid for one reason on another. While most research has shown petrolatum-based ingredients to be safe on the skin, there are some concerns when it comes to inhalation, as well as the process by which petrolatum-based ingredients are made. What makes products like the Honest Beauty Healing Balm unique. This plant-oil based balm offers the same protective, nourishing, moisturizing benefits as your standard petrolatum-based balm, without any of the questionable controversies. This product contains beneficial ingredients including sunflower seed oil, beeswax, olive oil and coconut oil, all of which help the nourish the skin and soften it at the surface. Squalane comes from squalene, which occurs naturally within the sebum of our skin. It is one of the oils our skin produces to keep itself hydrated. Squalane is the hydrogenated version of squalene and has a longer shelf life.
