There are times when you want everything in your beauty and skincare routine to be as straight forward as possible. This means fewer nebulous tips about eating better and drinking lots of water (though both of these things are important), and more specific tips on products that actual experts like dermatologists use, love, and recommend.

Luckily, every so often a pro like Dr. Mamina Turegano pops up on TikTok to express her appreciation for skincare products that you can purchase and start using asap.

This list of seven products can help “combat aging,” according to Turegano, and are “worth every penny.” Here’s what you need to know about each of them.

1. Neova DNA Total Repair Serum


The first time I tried the Neova brand, it was because of a recommendation by my own dermatologist, and I found one of their moisturizers to be intensely hydrating and reparative. The DNA Total Repair Serum is a daily serum with enzymes and antioxidants that is designed to repair DNA damage caused by oxidative stress and UV light. If you have photo damage from sun exposure, this may be one to consider. Find it here.

2. Skinceuticals C E Ferulic® with 15% L-Ascorbic Acid


Skinceuticals C E Ferulic® with 15% L-Ascorbic Acid is truly a favorite vitamin C pick among so many experts. This medical-grade serum is said to reduce damage from free radicals caused by things like UV exposure and pollution. It can help with skin tone and brightness, fine lines and wrinkles, discoloration, and loss of firmness. Find it here.

3. Tensage Intensive Serum


Tensage Intensive Serum contains vitamins C and E, growth factors, and is designed to help shorten time between in-office procedures like laser and healing. It can also improve fine lines and wrinkles and breathe life into lackluster skin. Find it here.

4. La Roche-Posay Anthelios Ultra Light Fluid Facial Sunscreen


No skincare routine is complete (no matter how high quality your other products are) if you haven’t incorporated a quality sunscreen into the mix. La Roche-Posay sunscreens are like skincare and SPF in one. They’re free of Oxybenzone and Octinoxate and are ideal for sensitive skin that becomes easily irritated from sunscreen. Find it here.

5. TheraBody TheraFace Mask


Red light therapy is said to help build collagen in the skin and reduce fine lines and dark spots. There are plenty of products from which to choose, but this mask by TheraBody scores points for its comfortable fit and other options that include blue light therapy, infrared LED light therapy, and vibration therapy. Find it here.

6. Beautycore Probiotic


Daily probiotics support the gut microbiome, which has a direct connection to your skin and overall health. This probiotic by Beautycore also contains biotin, vitamin C, selenium, and bamboo extract for additional skin, hair, and nails nourishment. Find it here.

7. Clinique Smart Clinical Repair Lifting Face & Neck Cream 


Don’t forget the skin on your neck! This area has thin and delicate skin that needs love, too, but can also be sensitive and more easily irritated. This fragrance-free cream (which can also be used on your face) is formulated with peptides to strengthen your skin barrier, as well as hydrating hyaluronic acid, jojoba oil, and shea butter. Find it here.
