Transformative skin care products are always on our radar, especially when we stumble on those that literally transform before our eyes. We’re talking innovators that instantly change textures, going from ordinary mud masks and gel cleansers to luxurious oils that melt on the skin. If we've learned anything from last year’s coconut oil craze, it’s that oils have a long list of benefits in the beauty world, whether it be removing stubborn eye makeup, diminishing signs of aging, or replenishing a dry complexion with some much-needed moisture (thank you, polar vortex).
