Skin care should be a top priority no matter the season, according to the dermatologists we spoke to this year. They stressed the importance of wearing sunscreen during the hot summer months and moisturizing your dry skin in the winter. Throughout 2022, we saw plenty of interest in a variety of skin care products to tackle any issues your skin may face in between, including SPF scalp protection, under-eye patches, pimple patches and more. And as the year comes to a close, we’re taking a look back on some of the skin care products Select readers loved the most.
