Best New Beauty Products for April 2021: Our Honest Reviews

I’ve been a Milky Jelly Cleanser faithful for years now, so when I heard that Glossier was coming out with a new deep-cleaning facial wash, I cleared all the room on my top shelf. Let me tell you—this product does not disappoint. It goes IN on your skin, but in the most gentle way, so you’ll want it on deck for all of the hot, humid, and sweaty days ahead. The formula has a blend of AHA exfoliators that are still nice to sensitive skin, with calendula, chamomile, and passion fruit extracts that keep your skin hydrated from the deep clean. Despite having allover dryness and eczema, I never feel that uncomfortable tightness after using this wash, just clean, clarified, and polished. That said, I only use it one to two times per week—for anyone with oilier skin, you’ll probably fall in love with this for more regular use! And of course, since it’s a Glossier product, we can’t ignore the packaging. Unlike most from the brand, this one comes in a sleek glass bottle so you can actually see the amber-hued formula inside. I highly recommend bringing it into the shower, because when that steam hits and the glass fogs up, it’s chef’s kiss. —S.S.
