These Best-Selling Cult Products Are Actually Worth Every Single Penny

As a beauty editor, if there's one skincare brand that I'm asked about most, it's SkinCeuticals. "Are SkinCeuticals products really worth it?" and "Is the C E Ferulic serum actually worth investing in?" are probably the two most common questions I'm asked about the brand, and my answer is a resounding yes. And I'm not alone. There isn't a beauty editor I know who doesn't get excited when the conversation turns to its best-selling C E Ferulic Serum. If you pop in to any top skincare clinic, you'll find SkinCeuticals products lining the shelves, and you'll no doubt see the brand peppered on beauty insiders' Instagram profiles too. You see, it's the sort of brand that is trusted by skincare experts and beauty editors alike. It turns out that Sienna Miller and Hailey Bieber are fans, too. The brand is science-led and results-driven, so the formulations give great results, and if, like me, you have problematic skin and experience acne or eczema, there are ranges to cater to every skin type and concern. And they really work.

You'll find a bottle of SkinCeuticals C E Ferulic on every beauty insider's shelf.

However, with a premium price tag to match the premium formulations, these products do fall into the investment end of skincare purchases. While I don't believe that anyone needs to spend upwards of £100 on a serum (I love an affordable yet effective beauty buy), if you're thinking of investing in SkinCeuticals and have the budget, then there are some great products within the range to try that are worthy of their price tags.
