The biggest 2021 Skincare Trends
The global pandemic has changed the way we do pretty much everything. The way we work, the way we school, the way we shop for groceries, and the way we approach our skincare. Healthy skin is something that will never go out of style. However, much like with fashion, there are trends that come and go in the world of beauty, and in 2021, thankfully, a focus on skin health is very much at the forefront. So here are the biggest 2021 skincare trends !
1.Eye care
Y’all already know that the delicate skin around our eye area requires specific products to really take care of it. By spending hours Zooming in front of screens, dark circles, puffiness, and fine lines start appearing around the eye area. So a lot of dermatologists recommended hard-working eye creams boasting active ingredients like brightening vitamin C and skin-plumping collagen to improve dark circles and reduce the appearance of fine lines. To combat puffiness, cooling eye masks will be key to calming inflammation.

2.At-Home devices
According to Darden, devices specifically featuring vibration therapy and LED light therapy are gaining increasing popularity due to anti-aging benefits that don’t require lengthy recovery periods. If you’re looking for Darden’s specific recommendations, she touts Déesse’s renowned LED mask and her own brand-new Facial Sculpting Wand as a few of her favorites. It’s easy to use at home and is also a great, relaxing treatment to work out any tension in your face—something many of us are dealing with right now!
3.Protection against Blue Light Damage
We dove into the blue-light skincare trend late last year, and according to Patel, the surge in blue light–protecting skincare formulations is more and more prominent in 2021. “In light of COVID and since returning to ‘normal’ life might not be as near as we initially hoped or expected, our screen time is higher than it ever has been!” Patel explains. “Released from all of our electronic devices like our smartphones, laptops, tablets, and TVs, we really can’t escape blue light in modern-day society, and it can result in premature aging or skin damage.”

4. Maskne Treatments
With mask-related breakouts on the rise, Dr. Elsa Jungman, who has a Ph.D in Skin Pharmacology, predicts the prevalence of more skincare products that are gentle and supportive of your skin barrier and microbiome to help balance the impact of irritation from mask wearing and frequent cleansing.
There is this treatment called NeoElite by Aerolase recommended by Dr. Paul Jarrod Frank, which is a laser that is great for targeting inflammation and is safe for all skin types, followed by a cryotherapy facial to decrease swelling and redness, and finished off with an antibiotic face cream to clear and prevent future acne.
5. At-Home Chemical peels
With the unpredictable nature of when and how long certain cities will be in lockdown, we’re going to see more potent home versions of popular skincare treatments like chemical peels. Featuring professional-grade ingredients and step-by-step instructions, home kits like this one from PCA SKIN, are offering safe-to-use treatments that refresh a dull complexion and address specific skin concerns such as aging, discoloration and blemishes without having to go in to see your esthetician or dermatologist.
