Recommended Products for Sensitive Skin
If you frequently notice redness, burning, or tingling sensations when applying your nightly skincare, you may have sensitive skin. Here are Dr. Hadley King’s recs for skin care that helps meet sensitive skin needs:
Get A Lift is an Antioxidant rich Firming Facial Cream Moisturizer that features a moisture-boosting formula to help protect and brighten skin’s appearance. The non-greasy, lightweight formula helps give skin a more even-looking skin tone and texture. See why Dr. King suggests this product below:
“The Get a Lift Firming Facial Cream is a nice option for sensitive skin because it contains moisturizing ingredients as well as Oat Kernel Extract, which helps to support and protect the skin barrier.”
Forever Clean cleanser helps to gently cleanse away dirt, impurities, and makeup, while helping replenish and restore balance to the complexion. Forever Clean is gentle enough to use every day to help soothe sensitive skin. See what Dr. King has to say about Forever Clean below:
“I also recommend the Forever Clean Gentle Cleanser because it gently cleanses without stripping the skin of its natural oils, and it contains Aloe, which has hydrating properties.”
Recommended Products for Blemish Prone/Oily Skin
If you find that your skin becomes shiny throughout the day, or if you experience breakouts on the skin, we suggest the following products to help address blemish prone/oily skin needs:
Downtown Detox is a Detoxifying Black Lemon Face Mask with Charcoal and Absorbent Clay that helps draw out pore-clogging impurities and excess oil to cleanse away pore-clogging impurities for a visibly brighter, more radiant-looking complexion. See why Dr. King recommends Downtown Detox below:
“The Downtown Detox Detoxifying Black Lemon Mask is another great option because it contains Bentonite Clay and Charcoal, which help to absorb and remove excess sebum, as well as Lactic Acid, which gently exfoliates.”
See No More exfoliating deep pore cleanser visibly helps smooth and diminish the appearance of blemishes and skin imperfections while helping to minimize the appearance of pores. See No More has a skincare-infused formula that helps reduce the appearance of an uneven skin tone. See why Dr. King suggests See No More for combination skin below:
“The See No More Deep Pore Cleanser is also great for oily and acne-prone skin because it contains both Salicylic Acid and Lactic Acid to gently exfoliate to help prevent and treat clogged pores.”
Recommended Products for Fine Lines and Wrinkles
If you are looking to address fine lines and wrinkles and crave a smoother looking complexion, we recommend the following products:
Get A Lift is a moisturizer that combines multiple age-defying ingredients in one luxurious face cream that helps tighten, lift, and restore the look of skin’s youthful resilience. The Ceramide-rich formula helps tighten, restore firmness, and retain skin’s moisture. See why Dr. King recommends this product below:
“The Get a Lift Firming Facial Cream is also great for anti-aging because it contains Humectants, Emollients and Occlusives to hydrate and moisturize to visibly plump and smooth the skin, as well as Antioxidants to protect the skin.”

Recommended Products for Combination Skin
If your skin is oily in some areas (like the T-zone) and dry in other areas, you may have combination skin. We suggest the following skincare products to help balance combination skin:
4-in-1 Correcting Primer instantly blurs the look of imperfections while helping address blemish-prone skin and helping control shine with conditioning skincare ingredients. The skincare-infused formula helps control shine and minimize the look of pores. See why Dr. King suggests this primer for combination skin:
“The Anti-Blemish & Mattifying Acne Treatment 4-in-1 Correcting Primer is great for combination skin because it can be applied specifically to the area that tends to be oiler—such as the T Zone or hormonal areas.”
Get a Lift is a non-greasy moisturizer that helps the skin retain moisture while helping to create a softer, smoother-looking appearance. Get a Lift Firming Facial Cream Moisturizer is a great option for combination skin as the non-greasy, yet moisture-boosting formula will help to balance out the skin. See why Dr. Kind suggests this moisturizer below:
“The Get a Lift Firming Facial Cream is very moisturizing but has a light texture and absorbs quickly—perfect for combination skin.”
