Picture this: you run out of your favorite high-end moisturizer and have a few more bills to pay before you can re-up. Do you (a) just wing it and go bare-face until the next paycheck? (b) bum some of your roommates moisturizer or (c) go buy a drugstore brand to use in the meantime?
If you are anything like me, option c would have been the last thing you want to do. I used to dread shopping for drugstore skincare products. There were too many products that never seemed to be made for me. But now that everyone has become hyper-focused on improving their skincare regimens, drugstore brands have stepped up their game. It’s a lot easier to find useful, effective products at an affordable price point. Which leads me to the topic of today’s post! I believe I’ve found the best drugstore moisturizer in the Olay Total Effects 7-in-1 Anti Aging Daily Face Moisturizer.
One quick trip to your local CVS and you can try it out for yourself. The product aims to smooth and brighten your skin, even your skin tone and refine your pores. It can also help target age spots and restore firmness to your skin. I’ve been pleasantly surprised by how well this drugstore moisturizer works for my crazy combo skin. My favorite part is that it has SPF 15. That means I don’t have to layer on an extra product under my makeup! Even if you are pretty young like I am, its never too early to start using anti-aging products. After all, prevention is always better than prescription!
