When there’s a new wonder skincare product on the market, what’s the first thing you do? You whip out your smartphone and start Googling the ingredients of course! After all, you want to know exactly what’s in it and how it can benefit your skin.

This got us thinking; could our Google searches reveal the ingredients we look for the most in our skincare products? We’ve analyzed Google searches for over 200 different ingredients to reveal which ones are our favorites, and those that we’re most intrigued by!

Of course, not every search relates to skincare. To make sure our rankings aren’t skewed, we based our research on searches that include ‘for skin’ for each ingredient.

Coconut oil tops our list of the most popular skincare ingredients

Coconut oil
Coconut oil

Searched a whopping 43,000 times every month globally, coconut oil tops our list of the most in-demand skincare ingredients. Over the course of a year, that’s a staggering 516,000 searches!

When you look at the benefits coconut oil can offer skin, it’s easy to see why it tops our list! Not only does it hydrate and protect skin, it’s also claimed to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, and reduce redness. No wonder it’s such a sought after ingredient in our skincare routine!

However, despite it topping our list, some of us are still unsure of the benefits the ingredient can bring. Every month, there are 11,000 searches for ‘is coconut oil good for your skin?’, while 9,100 people look up ‘benefits of coconut oil on skin’. This suggests that although the ingredient is in our skincare, we’re not too sure what it does!

Vitamin E takes second place, with creams, oils and serums our go-to products

Following behind coconut oil, vitamin E takes second place with 31,000 monthly global searches. That’s 372,000 searches over the course of the year!

In terms of the most popular vitamin E skincare products, vitamin E cream is way out in front, with 34,000 monthly searches. Vitamin E oil (21,000 monthly searches) is in second place, followed by vitamin E serum with 9,700 searches per month respectively. 

Even though these products are in such high demand, people still question ‘vitamin E benefits for skin’ 11,000 times a month. 

Clearly, we’re doing our research before we invest - and given the number of searches for specific vitamin E products, we seem to like the benefits the ingredient offers! Reported to soften skin and protect against damage and moisture loss, there’s no reason not to like it!

Lesser known lactic acid rounds out the top three most popular skincare ingredients

While coconut oil and vitamin E are well-marketed skincare ingredients, a lesser known ingredient takes third place. Lactic acid racks up 24,000 monthly searches globally, but what benefits does the ingredient actually bring?

Lactic acid is often found in exfoliation products. It reportedly helps to remove dead skin cells, helping skin appear smoother and more youthful in appearance. 

Interestingly, there are no lactic acid product-specific searches in our top 30 product search findings. This suggests that people are maybe spotting the ingredient on the packaging of their skincare and are Googling it to find out more.

Calamine lotion, vitamin C serum and hydrocortisone cream are the most sought-after skincare products
