2019 Saw Some Mind-Blowing Skincare Launches, but These Are Our Favorites

"I've been told by — oh, I don't know — 900+ people that I'm always drawn to the purple object in the room. This is true (and I blame my Alma Mater for that) but the Tatcha the Dewy Skin Cream ($68) sparks joy in a way lavender throw pillows or the eggplant emoji just can't. The formula is packed with antioxidant-rich Japanese purple rice bran, skin-softening algae, and hydrating amino acids — all of which are just a fancy way of saying it's really, really moisturizing. And let's be real: that's my actual favorite color." — KC
