Perhaps my best skin-care tip is as follows: Whatever you do to your face, do to your neck, and, use any leftover face product on the top of your hands. So much focus (and pressure) is placed on our faces, but roughly 90% of our skin falls below the chin. It’s worth it to invest in body products with the same top-notch ingredients and benefits expected from facial skin care.
Youth to the People makes the search for high-quality body products a breeze with their new Body Care Collection. Elevate your shower experience with Superberry Firm + Glow Dream Body Butter ($48), 10% AHA + Yerba Mate Smoothing Energy Body Scrub ($42) and Superfood + Niacinmide Body Cleanser ($39). These are not your typical shower suds. All three boast an ingredient list usually reserved for face products.
Impressive Ingredients
The formula of Superfood + Niacinmide Body Cleanser is similar to the brand’s best-selling (and Kaia Gerber’s go-to face wash) Superfood Antioxidant Cleanser ($39). Both are lightweight gels that include powerful antioxidants in kale and green tea extract. As the name suggests, the Body Cleanser strongly features niacinamide, a multitasking megastar in the skin-care world. Niacinmide, a form of vitamin B, brightens dull skin, reduces inflammation and helps support balanced oil production. Also present are amino and fatty acids that soften and smooth skin from head to toe.
For an extra-silky, full-body glow grab the 10% AHA + Yerba Mate Smoothing Energy Body Scrub. This finely milled, creamy polish stars some serious skin-care heavy hitters. Bisobolol (a derivative of chamomile) and jojoba seed oil soothes and smooths. Upcycled olive seed powder and jojoba beads buff away impurities. AHAs brighten the skins’ surface. Antioxidant-blend yerba mate, caffeine and passionfruit leave skin radiant and energized. The brand also notes it’s safe and effective to address concerns concerns caused by keratosis pilaris (KP).
Finally, the Superberry Firm + Glow Dream Body Butter is a decadent emulsion that boosts hydration for 48 hours while simultaneously firming skin over time. It’s formulated with niacinmide, antioxidant-rich berry extracts, bisobolol and an intense moisture compex, a blend of jojoba oil, hyaluronic acid and shea and cupuaçu butters. The texture is indulgent, and its scent—with notes of yuzu, green tea and blonde woods—encourages relaxation and calm as you conclude your body-care routine.
If you’re looking to upgrade your body products for a glowy, silky and healthy full-body glow, Youth to the People’s transformative Body Care Collection is now available to purchase individually, or as a set ($110).
