The best beauty-editor approved deals from the Space N.K. Skin Care sale:
Dr. Dennis Gross Alpha Beta Universal Daily Peel
Why we love it
- Gentle enough for daily use
- Ideal for acne-prone skin
- Suitable for all skin types
- Helps unclog pores
Who it’s best for: acne-prone skinaging skintexturedullness
Ah yes, the cult-favorite peel pads. Dr. Dennis Gross is known for this exfoliating powerhouse system, mainly because it’s gentle enough for daily use. Thanks to the combination of AHAs and BHAs, you’ll be working on brighter, clearer skin after every use. The reviews are filled with comments like “My holy grail,” and “Exfoliating like a pro” for a reason. However, if you have sensitive skin, it’s best to use these once or twice a week rather than daily. Bonus: The 5-pack is the perfect way to test them out.

Allies of Skin Peptides & Antioxidants Firming Daily Treatment
Why we love it
- Packed with antioxidants
- Rich in peptides
- Protects from environmental stress
- Weightless consistency
Who it’s best for: acne-prone skinaging skindullness
We’re already fans of the Allies of Skin Hyaluronic Acid—which we featured in our buying guide ofthe best hyaluronic acid serums—but it’s currently out of stock at Space N.K. Our next top pick? This peptide treatment.
If you’re struggling with sun spots or a dull complexion, this 3-in-1 moisturizing treatment will be your dream true. Not only is the slick formula packed with antioxidants and skin brighteners, but it even contains a blend of peptides to nourish the skin barrier and reveal a dewy, glowing finish.

Drunk Elephant T.L.C. Framboos Glycolic Night Serum
Why we love it
- Blend of AHAs & BHAs
- Easy to use
- Air-tight packaging
- Contains antioxidants
Who it’s best for: acne-prone skinaging skintexturedullnesscombination skin
Our beauty team has tried plenty of exfoliants, but this serum stays at the top of my list. A blend of AHAs and BHAs is accompanied by raspberry and extract and horse chestnut, which ensures the ingredients are absorbed by the skin to help balance the complexion. We love that it works overnight, revealing an almost magical glow in the morning. Just be warned this formula is strong thanks to a long list of acids: glycolic, lactic, citric, and tartaric. It’ll do wonders for clogged pores, but those with sensitive skin should opts for something gentler.

Medik8 Crystal Retinal 3
Why we love it
- Gentle retinol formula
- Increasing strengths available
- Air-tight packaging
Who it’s best for: acne-prone skinaging skintexturedullness
If you’re looking for a new retinol formula, Medik8 has you covered. Inside you’ll find 0.03% encapsulated retinaldehyde, which is one step above classic retinol found in many OTC products. It’s not quite as potent as the prescription-grade options but instead falls right in the middle—pleasing those who are sensitive to harsh treatments and anyone looking for real results. You can even bump up to the 0.06% potency if you’re looking for something a bit stronger down the line. Either way, retinol is a worthy investment, so why not grab it while it’s almost discounted for less.

Tata Harper Hydrating Floral Mask
Why we love it
- Replenishes moisture
- Eases irritated skin
- Packed with hyaluronic acid
- Soothes redness
Who it’s best for: aging skindullnessdrynesssensitive skincombination skin
Assistant beauty editor Hannah Frye (it’s me!) is obsessed with this hydrating mask—so much so, that she uses it at least once a week. The formula is packed with hyaluronic acid, antioxidants, and pure fruit oils to deliver a gel-like consistency that sits on the skin without feeling claustrophobic. After a few minutes, your skin will look plumper and dewier, which means you’re ready to take on whatever the day throws at you.

Augustinus Bader The Rich Cream
Why we love it
- Ideal for normal to dry skin types
- Protects against environmental stress
- Nourishes the skin barrier
- Locks in hydration over night
Who it’s best for: aging skindullnessdrynesssensitive skincombination skin
Augustinus Bader is well-known in the world of luxury skin care, and this moisturizer is hardly ever on sale. The price tag is matched with a blend of skin-loving antioxidants, omega-6 fatty acids, potent botanical oils, shea butter, and the brand’s unique TFC8, or Trigger Factor Complex which helps encourage cell renewal. Use this on your face and neck every morning and evening—but only if you want healthier, brighter skin for days.
