The truth is the best beauty products change habitually—and frequently. What we loved last year is replaced by some new arrival, that classic you forgot about, or that thing that’s majorly popular on the other side of the world. The speed at which we are discovering beauty is swift—and don’t we know it! Vogue’s beauty team, between here and London, tests a lot of products each week. Not to mention, what’s considered “the best” is entirely subjective. Amongst our teams, we all have different skin types, complexion concerns, and texture preferences. Needless to say, all of our daily beauty routines look different from one another.
Vogue’s Favorite Beauty Products of 2026
It’s hard to believe that 2026 is already more than halfway through. And with that in mind, we’re reflecting on the beauty products that got us through the year so far. For starters, both senior beauty and wellness editor Margaux Anbouba and senior beauty shopping writer Ellie Davis have been quite taken by the new Shark FacialPro since their first trial. Both liken it to a Hydrafacial, apt to suck all the gunk out of your pores. Beauty editor at large Arden Fanning Andrews, on the other hand, is still very much in love with Omi’s hair growth gummies, and considers them a mainstay in her wellness regimen. Beauty shopping writer aConçetta Ciarlo has found similar blemish-fighting solace in esthetician Sofie Pavitt’s regimen—namely, the expert’s mandelic acid serum.
Below, all these and more beauty finds (both new or old!) that have been truly game-changing for our Vogue beauty editors. From high-tech gadgets to newfound signatures, read on to discover our picks.

Best Skin-Care Products
Allies of Skin
Copper Tripeptide & Ectoin Advanced Repair Serum
Hyperpigmentation is my constant companion. Blemish? Dark mark. Bug bite? Dark mark. Blind pimple that never breaks through the skin but causes undue chaos below? You already know. This serum has flattened and faded two particularly difficult dark spots in a matter of weeks, repairing the damaged skin and nixing any dryness or flakiness. —Morgan Fargo, beauty and wellness editor
Bioeffect
EGF Essence
I just used a whole bottle of Bioeffect EGF Essence, part of their growth-factor line that Vogue editors love, and plan to use another! I splash it directly on my skin in the morning to refresh as a first step, and it’s just the right amount of slip to start the day (and works under makeup without pilling!). —Arden Fanning Andrews, beauty editor at large
