Acharia has combination skin, which means it's oily yet dehydrated and prone to breakouts, and finding a moisturizer that accommodated her skin's needs was a challenge until she came across the Dr. Barbara Sturm Darker Skin Tones Face Cream ($225). "It's just this really staple, very rich, non-oily-looking face cream that just hydrates but doesn't hydrate too much that you look oily," she says. "It's just a great base for putting other products into it if you want to, but also just perfect on its own." Acharia notices a big difference in her skin when she uses this cream, saying it keeps her skin plump with a youthful appearance. It is formulated with magnolia and African whitewood bark extracts, which the brand claims helps refine pores, balance the skin, and provide hydration. It also contains lumicol, which helps to even out the skin tone, and telovitin, which helps with anti-aging concerns.
Pro Tip: As someone with a brown skin tone, Acharia loves using the brand's line for darker skin tones. She also regularly uses the Foam Cleanser ($75) and the Enzyme Cleanser ($75), which are must haves for model Lais Ribeiro as well.
