Best Skincare Products on a Budget

We all want to have beautiful skin, but you don’t have to spend a fortune to get it.  Today I’m going to tell you the brands and products I like for the lowest price possible.  I will not be recommending products from the drugstore, but high quality products for the lowest price.  I only recommend products that I have personally used and love and would use on my own skin.  I have yet to find products at the drugstore that have good ingredients and are good for my skin (I’ve tried!).  But here’s a secret: A good quality product will last you longer because you don’t have to use as much of it.  All of the cleansers and moisturizers I’m recommending will last you 4-6 months.  Let’s get started!

    Thanks!

  2. Hi Rachel
    What do you think about Khiels products? I have been thinking about trying them (I love the lip products) so i thought i see. Great post for products at a lesser price point!

  3. Hi Rachel,
    What are your thoughts on Dermologica? I was on Ulta the other day and the esthetician that works in the spa there was raving and swearing by the products but I’ve always been apprehensive. Thoughts?
