When considering taking care of your skin, one of your first options is probably going to a dermatologist. We agree, you’re totally right. However, dermatologists don’t only recommend prescription-level products. On the contrary, practically all derms love to either recommend a great skincare routine as the first line or even combine them with a prescription. This is where the expression dermatologist-approved skincare comes from. So, which brands do they usually recommend? It always comes down to the level of trust a dermatologist has in a brand.
