With a break from COVID-19 and arrival of 2022, there’s no better time to make sure that your skincare arsenal is packed with trendy products and ingredients. Retinols, hyaluronic acid and niacinamide are among the best ingredients for skin that we expect to make a boom this year. Below, we’re sharing 5 topmost skincare ingredients trending in 2022, so you can keep them on your radar.
- Retinol
We know that retinol has been around forever. But that doesn’t change the fact that people are still swearing by its anti-aging benefits only. Its track record speaks for itself as one of the best ingredients for skin, so don’t be surprised to see the launch of new products driven by this powerful vitamin A derivative. Retinol also helps to fight key signs of aging like deep wrinkles and works to smooth and brighten your complexion.
- Hyaluronic Acid
Hydrated skin never goes out of style and there are only few ingredients that can help you achieve the intense levels of moisturisation that hyaluronic acid can. For this reason, along with others, we don’t see hyaluronic acid going anywhere anytime soon. The hydration powerhouse can hold up to 1000x times its weight in water, plumping the skin with moisture, so it looks soft, smooth, and more youthful. Moisturized and hydrated skin is always beautiful.
- Niacinamide
Niacinamide is a form of vitamin B3 that you may have heard. Whether you’re familiar with the ingredient or not, you should be! It offers various benefits, such as reducing visible signs of aging, acne and wrinkles.
- Petroleum Jelly
Surprised to hear about petroleum jelly? If there’s one trending ingredient hidden in plain sight, it is petroleum jelly. Yes! This household item is one you’ve likely been familiar with since you were a kid, but you never gave it a sight. It works to moisturize dry skin, rehydrate your nails, and more, so we think it’s a must for your skincare pouch.
- Vitamin C
When applied topically, vitamin C acts as an antioxidant and can help neutralize free radical damage to the skin’s surface. Free radicals are unstable molecules induced by the environment, which can bind to the skin and can cause premature aging, including visible fine lines, wrinkles, dark spots, and more. So applying vitamin C serum along with broad-spectrum sunscreen will provide you protection against harmful free radicals and to help improve skin radiance.
