Finding products our derm would approve of isn’t exactly an easy task. That is, unless we want to buy from one of the pricey lines they carry in their office (we don’t). But thanks to LovelySkin, it’s about to get a whole lot easier. The dermatologist owned and operated beauty site carries only derm-approved skin care and makeup products selected by founder and CEO Joel Schlessinger, M.D., a board-certified dermatologist.The formulas he’d recommend to his own patients are the only ones that hit the site, so we totally trust him. Here, ten products we’ll be ordering from LovelySkin, like, yesterday.
