Sephora launched its clean beauty initiative more than two years ago and, since then, the retailer has added a ton of clean makeup, skin care, hair products, and fragrances, all free from controversial ingredients (and marked with an easy-to-spot green label, too). With more options than ever — and 2021 finally here — is this not a great time to make a clean swap in a beauty routine, and try something new at the same time?
New Year's resolutions notwithstanding, whether you're looking for a cleanser, moisturizer, toner, or mask, we've picked out 21 clean skin-care goodies from Sephora to fit those needs. Every single one has at least a 4-star average rating, and hundreds — and, in some cases, thousands — of 5-star reviews from other shoppers already. Check them out ahead.
