Ever since starting college, searching for skin care products has become a mission for me. However, I found myself in between being broke and overwhelmed by the vast selection of products. Luckily, I came across the best skin care products, both in price and quality, that worked wonders for my skin. These are my must-haves:
I use this cleanser twice a day and it has done wonders for my face. It leaves my face feeling fresh and rejuvenated. The best part is, it’s only $6.
Toners are used to reduce redness, shrink pores and protect the skin, which is just what I needed. My face used to break out and leave painful blemishes behind, but after using this product once a day, I haven’t had them since! It costs $8 on e.l.f.’s website.
I use this moisturizer in the mornings, right after cleansing and toning my skin. This $12 lotion has a light and airy formula that lights up the skin, leaving a healthy-looking face.
No skin care routine is complete without some sunscreen! When I’m heading out for the day, I replace e.l.f.’s Holy Hydration! Hydro-Gel Moisturizer with this one. The consistency of this product is thick, but not heavy on the skin, however, it does have a tacky feel to it. To me, it’s perfect for applying makeup after. You can find it online, but I purchase mine from my nearest drugstore for $15.99.
In my experience, the ultra-light weight formula makes it the best lotion for the end of the day. I go to bed feeling both refreshed and cozy, I can never get enough of it. This lotion is also only $15.99.
