The biggest skincare trends of 2020

This is your 2020 reminder to go through your skincare collection and toss out anything that's expired — no need to bring those oldies into the new year, y'all. If one of your resolutions for the new decade is to ~finally~ achieve the skin of your dreams, I highly suggest keeping 2020's biggest skincare trends in mind. 

From on-the-rise product types to the ingredients you'll soon see everywhere, here's everything you need to know about the latest advances in skincare.

Less Aggressive Skincare

While we see 10-step Korean skincare routine tutorials online, we all know we don’t have the time for it. 2020 will be all about simplifying the tedious skincare routine. It will bring back the cleanse-tone-moisturize-sunscreen routine with weekly masking and exfoliating instead of layering hundreds of serums and potions every morning.

Liquid Beauty

Liquid exfoliates are big news on the beauty scene, and their popularity is souring. Beauty editors and experts hail their gentle yet powerful ability to leave skin radiant and glowy, so it's no wonder Pinterest searches for the term are up 58%. And now, thanks to new innovative product launches, more of us are adding liquid exfoliates to our skincare routine.

Acids Go Natural

Natual acids are more gentle approach than traditionally popular acids like AHA and BHA, and sourced from natural botanical extracts. Botanical AHAs can come from the hibiscus flower or coconut flower and are a great way to get the benefits of exfoliation without the irritation.

Minerals Are The New Vitamins

We’ve seen a huge rise in the popularity of supplements and adaptogens in the last year in particular (stay tuned for some reviews), and we love the boost they give our mood and skin. studies show 50% of the population are deficient in select minerals, which is why she believes “Minerals will be a new wave in skincare – topical application in addition to ingestion is a must.”
