Best Multipurpose Moisturizer

Aveeno Positively Ageless Lifting & Firming Daily Moisturizer SPF 30, $19.99, drugstores.

This quick-absorbing formula contains wheat protein to firm skin, shiitake mushroom extract to boost collagen, and sunscreen agents that protect against damaging UVA and UVB rays.

Best Night Cream

Neutrogena Anti-Oxidant Age Reverse Night Cream, $19.99, drugstores.

No need to wear heavy cream to bed. This light formula won over staffers with its antioxidants, such as soy, which minimizes dryness, and feverfew, a redness-reducing ingredient.

Best Undereye De-Puffer

Canyon Ranch Your Transformation Brightness Eye Cream, $70, saksfifthavenue.com.

Testers loved the texture of this cream, which is chock-full of undereye-improving ingredients, such as niacin (known to boost skin thickness) and Eyeliss, an ingredient that reduces darkness and puffiness.

Best Acne-Fighting Kit

Nature's Gate Organics Natural Results Acne Treatment System, $29.99, www.natures-gate.com.

Banish breakouts naturally without the irritation that benzoyl peroxide can cause. This three-step system uses salicylic acid and tea-tree oil to clear pimples and prevent new ones.

Best Cleansing Wipes

Garnier Nutritioniste Nutri-Pure Detoxifying Wet Cleansing Towelettes, $5.99, drugstores.

These premoistened cloths remove makeup and sweat pre- or post-workout without leaving skin feeling tight or dry. They contain vitamins E and B5 to moisturize as well as green-leaf extract to soothe.

Best Moisturizing Lip Balm

Nivea A Kiss of Flavor Passion Fruit Tinted Lip Care, $2.99, drugstores.

It hydrates better than other balms thanks to almond oil and vitamin E. One reviewer called the hint of color "perfect for those moments when you don't have lipstick but you need a quick touch-up."
