Prescriptives Good In Bed is double teaming you, if you know what we mean. And we think you do.

Just about everyone I know cites Clinique as being their first non-drugstore skincare line, but mine was Prescriptives, mostly because I am such a unique shade of copy paper white that theirs was the only foundation that didn't give me the dreaded chin line of demarcation. While I've branched out and recognize that you don't have to be wearing head-to-toe anything, I still visit Prescriptives now and then, particularly when I want some custom-blended lip gloss, which is when I spotted their new night moisturizer, Good In Bed.

Prescriptives is so good about having products that don't overdo the oil or alpha-hydroxys and is one of the few lines that I'll dump all over my ultra-sensitive skin without even worrying about the possibility of a reaction. After a few days, my complexion was dewy and soft but amazingly, a little...glowy? In researching, I discovered that Prescriptives had essentially slipped me a mickey, because there's a teeny tiny bit of self-tanner in the mix. What a multi-tasker! It's such a light touch that it's barely noticeable but it's nice to know so that you don't accidentally self-tan your 600-thread-count Egyptian cotton white pillow cases. Marked as "non-acnegenic," the product is still loaded with shea butter, so only approach if you are very dry or use every other or every third day if you tend toward congested pores.
