My Favorite Drugstore Prodcuts

I've always loved trying new products and some of my favorite ones have been the ones found in drugstores or Target.  I like to go in every so often and pick out something new and see how it compares to what I was previously wearing.  Here are ones that I find myself continuously buying lately or coming back to.



drugstore products




St. Ives Green Tea Scrub - This has been my favorite because the scrub is gentle.  It's not as rough as the apricot one and I feel it does the trick better, my face instantly feels cleaner and has a nice shine to it.

Maybelline Age Rewind Concealer - This is my go to for quick coverups... I wouldn't say it's the concealer I wear if I have a bad night with the kids and need my circles covered up, but it does  the trick for days that I don't feel like wearing a ton of makeup.  I wear this and then follow my face with my MAC Studio Fix Powder which I've used for years.

Ponds Crema S Face Cream - I love how thick and moisturizing this cream is, without leaving my face feeling oily.  It's one of the best face creams I've tried!

Neutrogena Oil-Free Acne Wash - I'm throwing it back with this one ;)  I think I've been using this facewash since I was a teenager - it's still one of my favorites and leaves my face feeling clean.  Another favorite of mine which I switch off with is Trader Joes Spa Face wash with Tea Tree Oil - smells wonderful and leaves my face feeling great!

Maybelline Falsies Mascara - I know I've talked about this mascara a lot, but I truly love it.  My lashes come out thick and long looking.  I always want to pick up another mascara to try whenever I'm in Target, but I always go back to this one.  Any suggestions for any other good ones?

Essie Nail Polish - Does this one need an explanation?!  Who doesn't love Essie??

Burt's Bees Face Wipes - This is one of my newer buys and I really like it.  I use these wipes to take off my makeup or when I feel like my face can use a freshen up - these wipes are great, and don't dry out your skin like some others do.


What are you favorite drugstore products?  Are there any others I should add to my rotation?

Can't agree more with the st.ives and pond cream - they are my go-to!! I also just picked up a new garnier night cream that I'm loving!!! I've heard great things about the age rewind eraser and want to try that as well! xo, Biana - BlovedBoston

I really like the Maybelline Mega Plush mascara. I have also been using BADgal lash from Benefit and I love it. I use Simple makeup remover/cleansing wipes, but maybe I'll try the Burt's Bees wipes some time. Thanks for sharing!! :-)

I just went to the drugstore yesterday for some stocking up and Essie polish was a necessity (since my kids decided to smash a few bottles on our bathroom floor the other night, ah!) I love that scrub and that Pond's cream really is awesome! It's so much bang for you buck!!

I've been using ponds face cream since college and love it! I also love that age rewind concealer for my dark (new mom = no sleep) circles under my eyes!

I always end up going back to Maybelline's Falsies too, and have to keep telling myself to stop trying others as my true love is to the Falsies :)

Being a beauty blogger I'm constantly in the drugstore looking at new products. My husband already knows what time it is when I ask to go to Walgreens. lol Thanks for sharing your picks! Definitely gonna check some of them out.

St. Ives Scrubs are the best! I use them on my whole body. They are so cheap and work fabulously!

Kristen said...

love that falsies mascara, and the maybelline under eye stuff is literally my favourite thing ever - which reminds me, i'm out and need to buy some more! i definitely find the apricot scrub too rough so i will have to try the green tea one.

Pond's and Falsies...yessss. I was way late to the game with the Falsies mascara, but it's easily become my favorite!

Katie Elizabeth said...

Essie is the best! Ballet Slippers is my all time fave :) And yours is seriously the fourth blog this week that has mentioned the Maybelleine Instant Age Rewind so I'll definitely be picking that up soon!

We use the same scrub and face lotion ;) So excited to use the concealer again, too!

The Burt's Bees Hand Salve is a life saver for me this time of year!!

I've been wanting to get some Essie nail polish but it's always so expensive :( Where do you buy yours? Do you know how much it is? And what colors are your faves? :)

I've been looking for a new scrub since my last one got discontinued and I have about one more use left in my last bottle. Thinking I will need to give that St Ives a try!

I need to try that st ives green tea scrub. I love the Neutrogena one and the grapefruit one they have. Maybelline is the only mascara I wear-but I haven't tried Falsies. I just picked up lash sensational last week and LOVE it so far. Essie is always a favorite.
