Each new year brings the promise of potential, new possibilities, and of course, plenty of new skincare trends that are dominating the market.
If you’re a skintrepreneur who’s always on the hunt for the latest and greatest in product lines and fads, a skinthusiast who’s always looking for the latest, most beneficial serums, products, techniques, and more in the skincare realm, or you’re an esthetician on the prowl for the best of the best, you’re in the right place at the right time.
You know that it’s crucial to keep up and stay in the loop when it comes to the elite trends that tend to push to the front of the line every new year.
That being said, there’s a lot to keep track of. How can you be sure you’re aligning with the trends that matter (AKA, the skincare fads that are pushing forth actual progress, making real differences in skincare, and importantly, dominating the market)?

The Hottest Skincare Trends of 2022
Here’s the skinny on what you need to know when it comes to the hottest skincare of the season.
Anti-Inflammatory Regimens are In
Even though some of the most incredible skincare products contain ingredients that could cause inflammation flare-ups (we’re lookin’ at you, retinol and acid peels), there’s been a big shift toward anti-inflammatory products, regimens, and routines.
Does this mean you should turn your back on some of the stronger acids that can bring big benefits to skincare? Not at all. But anti-inflammatory, gentler products that prioritize the skin barrier (paired with anti-inflammatory diets, too) is a hot trend right now—and you should definitely pay attention.,
Refillable & Sustainable Packaging for the Win
Big hunks of plastic are out, sustainable packaging with minimal impact on the planet is in. This, naturally, includes refillable packaging and products, glass containers, and refillable serum jars. Translation? Single-use plastic is so 2021.
In the same vein, beauty bars are back—and here to stay, too. As part of the sustainable push, many are opting for a beauty bar vehicle for their treatments, as opposed to big, hard-to-recycle plastic containers.
Translation here? You might want to consider opting for more sustainable treatments and packaging for your skincare line lest you deal with the fallout of not opting for greener beauty solutions.
Fabulously Fermented Skincare
If you’ve got a kombucha obsession, we’ve got a feeling you’re going to love this fad. Fermented skincare is all the rage at the moment, offering ingredients that can handily give you tons of benefits like anti-aging, inflammation reduction (which, you know is big this year), and enhanced potency with minimal irritation (like retinol can sometimes have). What’s behind this trend? Some recent studies have pointed out that fermented ingredients pack a real punch against fine lines, inflammation, and aging. Of course, there’s no definitive proof as of yet, but that doesn’t mean skincare lines haven’t capitalized on this trend (and that doesn’t mean you should ignore this fad, either).
Crazy for At-Home Cryo
That’s right, we said cryo — as in, cryotherapy. The idea behind cryotherapy (if you’re still not super sure about what it’s all about) is that cold temperatures cause the blood vessels to contract, which in turn causes the pores to tighten up. The result? Firmer, more rejuvenated skin.
But the big trend now is that cryo is happening at home—big time. Instead of dropping cash on a few minutes in a cryo chamber, consumers are opting for at-home remedies like sculpting rollers, icy orbs, and other cold-infused tools.
The best products to pair with cryo tools? Hyaluronic acid infusions, eye serums, and caffeine products, too.
Retinol Continues Its Reign
Some trends never go out of style—and if we had to pick just one comprehensive skincare solution that will never fade from use, it would definitely be retinol. Don’t get us wrong, we’re perfectly aware that retinol isn’t some new and exciting trend that’s taking 2022 by storm, but we’re not going to deny that this oldie-but-goody will continue to top market charts year in and year out.
So, while it’s not considered a brand new trend that you’ve never heard of, we simply couldn’t ignore making mention of this always-hot, holy-grail of skincare trend that you must know about no matter what year it is.
