Smooth and beautiful skin: 15 best face lotions

Beautiful and smooth skin is every girl’s dream, but, unfortunately, not always a reality. Decorative cosmetics can help hide imperfections: foundation, powder, concealer. But this is not a way out of the situation. In order not to hide imperfections, but only to emphasize the advantages and natural beauty of the skin, it should be carefully looked after. And one of the stages of facial care is the use of lotion.

But before you start buying it, you should figure out what this product actually does and why it is needed.

Firstly, it is often confused with tonic. Despite the fact that they are similar in their action, they are still different products. The main function of both products is to deeply cleanse the face of impurities. But tonics act more delicately and gently, but lotions often contain alcohol, which has a more aggressive effect on the skin. Although modern manufacturers are moving away from this and stop adding alcohol to the formula, replacing it with acids or plant extracts.

Secondly, it is worth knowing that, like any other skin care products, lotions are divided into types corresponding to different skin types:

• Moisturizing.
• Rejuvenating.
• Exfoliating.
• For problematic skin.
• Matting.
• Antibacterial.
• Calming.
• Tonic.

Therefore, you should choose products of this type for yourself based on the characteristics of your skin. Sometimes lotions and tonics are also confused with makeup removers. It is not right. Makeup removal can only be done with micellar water, milk, hydrophilic oil or other specialized products. Lotions ensure clean skin after removing the make-up. They collect all the impurities that may remain even after thorough washing, tone the face, leaving it fresh and prepared for further procedures.

What else should you pay attention to when choosing such a product:

• Compound.
  The safety of the ingredients included in the product can be checked on the Internet. And, despite the fact that the basis of almost all products now consists of plant extracts, acids and oils, chemical elements still remain an integral part of the composition.
• Consistency.
  Clear or slightly tinted water is the standard form of lotion, but some manufacturers are moving away from the classic liquid look and releasing their products with the consistency of milk or serum.
• Volume.
  The consumption of such products is quite large, therefore, the smaller the volume of the bottle, the less time it will last you. This should be taken into account when purchasing expensive luxury goods, for example.
• Smell.
  Manufacturers have recently moved away from the use of harsh perfumes, giving preference to natural aromas obtained by adding flower or other plant extracts to the composition. Such smells are much more pleasant and unobtrusive.

Introducing the rating of facial lotions for 2022. The best 15 products that were selected by our experts based on user reviews and ratings.

Best Inexpensive Face Lotions

We often associate low prices with low quality products. But it is not always the case. You should not think that lotions in the price category up to 500 rubles will not be of any benefit, or that they can only cause harm. They act, but superficially, without penetrating into the deeper layers of the skin. The main thing is that they cope with their main function - cleansing - 100%. You can often purchase products from this category at your nearest cosmetic store or even at a supermarket/hypermarket in the beauty and health department. And the low price is mainly due to the production of these products in Russia or nearby CIS countries.

4 Vitex exfoliating with fruit acids

In fourth place in our rating is an exfoliating lotion with fruit acids from the Belarusian brand Belita-Vitex from the Skin AHA Clinic line.
There are seven products in total, all of which are aimed at exfoliating and evening out the complexion using AHA acids. Therefore, for comprehensive care, it is advisable to also purchase foam, scrub, peeling, serum and cream from the same line. The manufacturer himself calls this product a skin radiance activator. Encapsulated fruit acids included in the product help to gently exfoliate the stratum corneum of the epidermis, trigger cellular renewal, help fight blackheads, and, in general, even out skin tone, giving it a natural shine and radiance. In most reviews of this product, girls confirm all the above effects and note an improvement in complexion and smoothness of the skin.

But the consistency of this product is more like milk than lotion. Therefore, it may be inconvenient to apply it with a cotton pad, because... it absorbs most of the substance. The product does not contain alcohol, but you will still feel a tingling sensation when applied, there is nothing to worry about, this is how acids work.

Pros:

• Does not contain alcohol.
• Tightens pores.
• Prevents oily shine.

The main components of this lotion are extracts of Japanese sophora, lemon balm and wheat proteins. Thanks to them, cell regeneration occurs, skin alignment and restoration, hydration and nutrition occur. The surface of the face becomes smooth, radiant and silky.

But this product is only called a lotion; in fact, inside the package there is a thick liquid, more like milk in color, consistency, and delicate creamy smell. Therefore, in most reviews, girls describe their reaction of surprise to this product after opening and first application. Moreover, for some this product is absorbed into the skin without a residue, while for others it leaves a sticky film that has to be washed off some time after use. But there is a plus to this feature; this product can be used to remove makeup residue from the skin. Of course, it won’t cope with active evening make-up, but it will be quite capable of removing a minimal layer of tone or mascara that has spread under the eyes.

Pros:

• Free from parabens and silicones.
• Suitable for daily use.

What does a facial tonic do: benefits and effects of use

To maintain skin health for a long time and fully care for it, you need to perform 3 steps daily;

• cleanse;
• tonify;
• moisturize.

It is the second step that is very important, because it works in several directions at once:

• final cleansing. Even after removing makeup and washing with foam, small impurities may remain;
• restoration of acid-base balance. Some products and plain tap water have a detrimental effect on the protective qualities of the skin, reducing their resistance to various negative environmental factors;
• preparation for the next stage - applying creams. Active components cleanse pores and increase the effectiveness of the ingredients included in the serum;
• refreshes, eliminates signs of fatigue, evens out color and returns a healthy glow, soothes inflamed areas.

The best face lotions in the mid-price segment

Lotions from this category can be called the “golden mean”. They already affect the deeper layers of the epidermis, not just leaving a film on the skin to moisturize, nourish and protect it from environmental influences, but penetrate into cells located much deeper. This happens mainly due to the composition, which is more saturated with useful components than that of inexpensive products. The price range of this segment is limited to 1000 rubles. Often these are professional or pharmacy care products produced abroad.

And deep hydration of cells, increasing elasticity and firmness of the skin is provided by hyaluronic acid. The product itself is more like a serum due to its gel-like consistency. But it is thanks to this that the product has economical consumption, which means one bottle of 180 ml will last for a long time.

The design of the bottle is very bright, made in red with a huge number of Japanese characters. However, such attention-grabbing labels are typical for all products from Asian manufacturers. Unfortunately, sometimes you come across bottles without a sticker with instructions in Russian. But it doesn't matter, because... This lotion does not require complicated use.

2 Beauty Style for deep cleansing Disincrustant

The rating continues with the deep cleansing lotion Disincrustant from the American brand Beauty Style.
This is a product for preparing the skin for ultrasonic or mechanical facial cleansing. Moreover, for it to work correctly, it must be applied according to the instructions. Before ultrasound cleaning or galvanotherapy, it is enough to simply wipe your face, because... the cosmetic device will do the rest (namely, it will turn sebum into soap and pull it out of the pores). And before mechanical cleaning, you need to soak a gauze napkin with the product and leave it on your face for 10 minutes, during which time the skin will become soft and well prepared to remove impurities. In the recent past, this product has been updated, the bottle has become much more convenient and beautiful. The round shape has turned into a laconic square, the dispenser has been transformed from a conventional screw-on spout to a more convenient spout with a lid that protects against accidental pressure. The volume of the bottle has also undergone changes, but not for the better; it has lost 50 grams and is now 250 ml.

It must be said that you should not use this lotion as a regular daily skin care product. If you do this, it, of course, will not harm your skin in any way, but there will be no benefit from such manipulations either, because... This product is still aimed at disincrustation (hardware method of facial cleansing).

Pros:

• Convenient dispenser.
• Attractive bottle.
• Softens skin and comedones.
• Antimicrobial action.
• Tightens pores.
• Turns sebum into soap.
• Pleasant floral scent.

Minuses:

• Not suitable for normal use.

The liquid phase of this lotion consists of more than 90% of the same thermal water, and the second phase of natural silicates that protect the skin from harmful environmental influences. They look like a sediment of white flakes, so before applying, be sure to shake the bottle to mix both phases.

In many of them, the composition or formula is not much different from more budget lotions; they use quite standard ingredients and will not do anything special to your face.

• pale pink - has a calming effect;

Which face lotion is better to choose?

Let's give some more tips on choosing a product:

• First of all, you should know your skin type and choose a lotion according to its needs. For dry skin - moisturizing, for oily or combination skin - mattifying or sebum-regulating, for chapped or flaky skin - exfoliating, for enlarged pores - tightening, for problem skin - with components that fight acne and blackheads.
• If you are prone to allergies or edema, you should immediately read the composition of the product to identify ingredients that can cause an allergic reaction in you. If there are any, of course, you need to refuse to purchase such a product in favor of another.
• For sensitive skin, i.e. for those who immediately react negatively to any actions directed towards it, be it redness, itching or a feeling of tightness, it is necessary to select products with the desired mark - “for sensitive skin”. Because It is in such lotions that the concentration of soothing components in the composition is higher than in others. They will not allow your face to turn into a “tomato” after all the procedures.
• An equally important parameter will be the smell, because... you will feel it not only during application, but most likely also for several minutes after. And if it is unpleasant, then the procedure will not be a pleasant pastime for you, but a painful ordeal. Therefore, if possible, it is advisable to immediately smell the product, and if the aroma does not suit you, give preference to another more pleasant-smelling product.
• It is preferable to buy care products of this type in specialized cosmetic stores or pharmacies, so as not to run into fakes, the use of which can only lead to very sad results.

And remember, any lotion can cause an allergic reaction, itching, pimples or redness, regardless of price and manufacturer. If you notice these signs appearing on your skin after applying the product, stop using it immediately.
