Kérastase Densifique Thickening Shampoo for Thinning Hair:

This shampoo is rich in hyaluronic acid, an ingredient that amps up hydration and helps with overall scalp health, says board-certified dermatologist Melanie Palm, MD. Meanwhile, gluco-peptides help repair hair and improve density.

After a little under a year of use, our tester says she saw significant changes in the volume and thickness of her fine, thinning hair. “This thickening shampoo was one of my holy grails during a period of time where my hair was thinning around the crown of my head,” says Glamour commerce writer Alanna Martine Kilkeary. “After about three weeks, I did see some fullness in areas that once looked sparse, and I also found my hair to generally be smoother, bouncier, and softer.”

What we love: A little goes a long way; lathers well; shine-boosting

What could improve: Pricey

Hair type: Best for all hair types

Key ingredients: Hyaluronic acid, gluco-peptides, ceramides

Scent: Clean, fresh

Safe for color-treated hair: Yes

Size: 8.5 ounces

And many more of our editor-tested favorites

Best drugstore cream for wrinkles
Neutrogena Rapid Wrinkle Repair Retinol Eye Cream

Active ingredients: Retinol | Consistency: Lightweight cream

For wrinkles, or deeper-set lines, retinol is your best bet. Dermatologist and cosmetic surgeon Dr. Melanie Palm likes the Neutrogena Rapid Wrinkle Repair Eye Cream, which uses a stabilized form of pure retinol that releases slowly over time. “The vehicle really matters when we’re delivering these vitamin A derivatives,” she says. The delayed absorption reduces risk of irritation, important for delicate, sensitive areas like the eye. It also uses a “beginner strength” retinol, which makes it friendlier than some other formulations. While Palm says this eye cream is generally safe for most, she would recommend avoiding if you’re pregnant, have a sensitive skin type, or have a previous history of contact dermatitis (a rash or irritation) from eye shadow or eczema. “You want to be careful,” she says.

Including options that treat dark circles, fine lines, and puffiness.

After a few days: “The first thing you’ll notice in your skin once you stop drinking is increased hydration,” says Dr. Reszko. Your skin will look (and feel) plumper because you no longer have alcohol flushing water out of your body. You’ll also notice less puffiness, which usually occurs because alcohol impacts the body’s lymphatic system. This is resolved fairly immediately after you start abstaining, says Dr. Palm.

After a few weeks: After two to four weeks of sobriety, most people will start to see reduced inflammation overall, and a particularly noticeable improvement in eczema or psoriasis, says Dr. Palm. Once your body is no longer releasing those inflammatory molecules, the skin can start to heal and regenerate. To be clear, that doesn’t mean these chronic conditions will be totally eradicated, but alcohol-induced flares should be greatly minimized.

Another reason to be sober-curious? Your complexion.

To combat even the most extreme cases of dry skin, like eczema, experts tell us you should seek out formulations rich in ceramides and hyaluronic acid.

Melanie Palm — the medical director at Art of Skin MD — explains that ceramides (or, cholesterol-derived fat) help seal the skin barrier to keep in moisture, while hyaluronic acid is known to carry 1,000 times its weight in water, so your skin stays extra hydrated. Seven of our experts pointed us to this CeraVe lotion, which contains both. It’s fragrance-free so it’s well-suited for sensitive skin types, and it doesn’t feel sticky or heavy on skin.

Including a body butter an aesthetician has been gatekeeping for years.

What Is Batana Oil?

Batana oil is extracted from the nuts of American palm trees, which are native to Central and South America, Melanie Palm, MD, MBA, board-certified dermatologist and cosmetic surgeon at Art of Skin MD in Solana Beach, California, told Health.

It’s a natural oil rich in fatty acids and antioxidants—including vitamin E—and is used in cooking and soap-making, she said.

Many batana oil sellers claim that the product has a history of being used as a hair treatment by indigenous people in Honduras.

However, more recently, batana oil has gained popularity in the U.S. as a remedy for hair loss, with social media users claiming it can promote hair growth and reduce breakage, said Palm.

Social media users are calling batana oil a natural hair-growth remedy, but does it really work? Here's what science says.

Which skin barrier repair ingredients should I look out for?

A key way to maintain a healthy skin barrier is to add a barrier repair product, which is strategically formulated to address the specific needs of the skin barrier, to your routine. Where traditional moisturizing products provide supplemental hydration to the skin, "barrier repair products help to repair the skin's barrier to help skin better retain moisture and prevent environmental damage," explains Dr. Clark-Loeser. If you're unsure what ingredients to seek out in a barrier repair cream, San Diego-based board-certified dermatologist Melanie Palm, MD, previously told us to look for "ingredients like glycerin, hyaluronic acid, squalane, natural moisturizing factors, and ceramides" for their conditioning properties and soothing benefits.

They relieve and protect itchy, sensitive skin in seconds.
