As much as I love my expensive skincare, I do love a good drugstore staple. When you can get an amazing moisturizer/serum/face wash/eye cream/[insert skincare product here] that is just as good
as the pricier counterparts, why not take advantage of that? In fact, I would dare to say some of the formulas are even better than the more expensive options. Personally, I'm about 50/50 when it comes to my collection of drugstore and "designer" skincare products. I like to mix and match, and I'm always updating my rotation with new finds. For example, some days, I could use a drugstore makeup remover, daily moisturizer, and face wash but will apply a $166 vitamin C serum. It's all about a balance, right?
But I understand it can get a little overwhelming when you're shopping the drugstore aisles because there are so many brands and options. To help, I polled a bunch of dermatologists and got a list of their favorite drugstore buys. Here's what they would recommend over and over.
