This all-in-one daily moisturizer from Roc was the consumer favorite in the GH Beauty Lab’s anti-aging day cream test and scored high for reducing visible spots by 4.5%, over four weeks in Lab measurements. Testers gave it the best marks for softening, firming and reducing wrinkles, and a few said it was perfect for wearing under makeup. “It left my skin feeling plump and looking smooth and glowing,” one said, and another noted that it seemed to have lightened her brown spots.
From BeautyStat, a Black-owned brand created by cosmetic chemist Ron Robinson, this multi-benefit serum contains a high 20% concentration of the gold standard brightening ingredient vitamin C, especially beneficial for dark skin tones that are prone to hyperpigmentation. We haven’t tested it in the Lab, but reviewers swear by it: “Helps combat dark spots, breakouts, signs of aging,” a Skinstore reviewer reported. “It’s a miracle product that truly tackles it all.”
