SkinCeuticals Retexturizing Activator: $86
While SkinCeuticals is best known for its vitamin C serum, we think the Retexturizing Activator deserves recognition, too.

If you suffer from things like discoloration or dehydrated skin, this serum made with kombucha and hyaluronic acid will work wonders.
