Best All Facial Serums in 2026

This Clarifying Serum helps treat and prevent breakouts while controlling oil and unclogging pores.

Use to quiet inflammation and redness while boosting overall clarity—no irritation here.

Willow bark extract, niacinamide, and a zinc blend work together to keep acne and oil at bay.

Dark Spot Correcting Glow Serum - Our creamy, non-irritating gentle facial serum is specifically formulated for sensitive skin and first-time retinol users. We've also added antioxidants for good measure.

Anti-Aging Ingredients - No need to worry about redness or dryness with this retinol serum. It contains a duo of microencapsulated retinol, which sends the active ingredient deep down into skin sans surface irritation, and natural retinol alternatives, arophira and bakuchiol.

Resurface Overnight - It's an effective night treatment that reforms skin texture (softening lines and wrinkles) and refines skin tone (evening out discoloration) while supporting healthy skin functions and keeping pores clear.

This Brightening Serum uses pigmentation-fighting plant extracts and antioxidants to give lackluster complexions a boost.

Vitamin C, licorice root, and niacinamide work together to even out tone, reduce dark spots, and strengthen the skin against future damage.

This brightening serum also helps firm and hydrate skin. Apply consistently; it can take one to two months to see visible results from vitamin C.

This serum booster provides the perfect amount of lightweight, yet deep, hydration. Made specifically to help with dryness and dehydration, use this face serum if your skin is feeling parched.

With two types of hydrolyzed hyaluronic acid (your body’s natural hydrator that’s able to hold 1000 times its weight in water), it is able to hydrate both at the skin’s surface and the layers beneath it.

Virtually weightless, it disappears into skin in a snap. It can be used alone as a serum or mixed in with your other serums, gels, creams, and even face makeup to create a dewy look.

Hyperpigmentation Treatment - This stay-in-place illuminating dark spot treatment gel features a blend of concentrated (yet safe) ingredients to help fade lingering dark spots. Saturated with antioxidants, this post-acne gel also strengthens the skin’s barrier to help prevent future damage.

Ingredients - This hyperpigmentation spot treatment contains tranexamic acid (a derm favorite for melasma, the most stubborn form of hyperpigmentation), kojic acid, licorice root, and niacinamide, which work together to impede melanin production and even out skin tone without irritation.

The Results - 85% agreed the brightening dark spot corrector minimizes the appearance of dark spots
, 82% agree dark spots appear lighter and smaller, and 
79% agree areas of application appear brighter. *From an 8-week user perception trial of people aged 18-70 with various ethnicities and skin tones.

Vitamin C Face Powder - Unlike some liquid vitamin C skincare products, this powder stays fresh, retaining its abilities from the first shake to the last.

Complexion Booster - Seamlessly mix this superfine powder into your other skincare so any serum or moisturizer can also even your skin tone and strengthen skin. Vitamin C is a great tool for brightening hyperpigmentation, too.

Skin Brightening Ingredients - This little gem is in powder form because vitamin C is a highly unstable ingredient that degrades easily, losing its magic and skin benefits. It’s a gold standard in helping skin dullness, so we want it to live a long, happy life serving your skin to its best potential. This vitamin C facial powder is made with a base of tapioca starch: a safe, natural alternative to talc.
