Promising review: "I had not used a makeup primer in years, and since I am a bit older, I wanted to give one a try. Read good reviews on this one and was happy with the results. Made my makeup go on smoother over my fine lines. I also noticed that my skin instantly looked smoother after applying it, even before I put on my makeup. Need to stock up." —Mom2twoMonkeys

Price: $8.97 (available in five flavors) 

Promising review: "This has been the most amazing face wash. I wash my face religiously twice a day, and this face wash has been the absolute best one I’ve tried. My skin is clear and pure. It’s gentle yet effective. Love Curology, my new go-to face wash." —Katie

Promising review: "The very first time I used Garnier SkinActive Micellar Cleansing Water, I was amazed at how well it removed all my makeup! I usually use about four cotton pads to remove everything. It never leaves my skin feeling dry or oily. One night, I was so tired that I fell asleep without washing my face after using it, and my skin still felt hydrated the next morning. This is an amazing makeup remover, and I'm a repeat buyer!" —anonymous

Price: $3.82+ (originally $4.49+; available in three sizes and packs of two) 

I've been using these for years, and this is my favorite style. I love how they don't feel harsh or heavy on my sensitive skin. They do a great job of removing makeup; however, I always follow them with a cleanser. 

Promising review: "I absolutely love that it takes only one makeup wipe to remove all your makeup! No effort at all! It is so easy, so convenient, so time-saving! I highly recommend these makeup wipes, they're the only ones I ever use!❤️" —Regina

Price: $5.67 for a 25-pack (also available in larger packs)

Promising review: "I use this on my skin after cleansing as part of my skincare, and I love how immediately hydrating it is. not in a greasy way; your skin feels hydrated, but it's not sticky or anything. I'm sensitive to scents, and this smells like nothing, which I love, so it won't clash with everything that does." —Walmart customer

Promising review: "I've struggled with acne-prone skin for years, and ever since I started using these a decade ago, they've become an absolute essential in my skincare routine. I can't imagine going without them — they're truly a game-changer!" —Jennifer

Promising review: "It took me about 2 weeks of consistent use, and I started seeing some results! After 3 months, I see great results. A little goes a long way, and it’s definitely lightened some of my hyperpigmentation along my neck and around my mouth and nose areas. I also notice the dark circles underneath my eyes seem to be less noticeable and less puffy. Definitely recommend. Especially for the price!" —Andrea

Price: $18.68+ (also available in a larger size) 

Promising review: "Read the reviews and decided to try this one out. The reviews weren't lying. This serum is hands down my favorite skincare item I've purchased! It is light, super hydrating, and leaves my skin feeling so soft and moisturized. The dropper is the perfect size for the amount needed! My skin has never felt better, and my pores are almost imperceptible now! I will say that the serum feels sticky at first after application, but the stickiness disappears after about three minutes. If you're on the fence, do yourself a favor and just get it! For the price, you can't go wrong!" —anonymous

Price: $5.97+ (also available in a larger size)

Promising review: "The pump makes it so easy to get just the right amount of moisturizer, unlike the other kind you have to scoop out. The formula is smooth, and I can tell my face is more moisturized than with other moisturizers I've used. It helps my makeup stay on and keep my skin looking fresh and not dry." —Tina

Promising review: "If you have dry, sensitive skin, I think you'll love this cleanser! I already love Good Molecules as a brand, but this was my first time purchasing the cleanser. It has almost a jelly-like consistency, but the lather is kinda creamy. It's gentle, but still cleanses well (without stripping your skin's oils). I love how immediately after rinsing, my skin feels more hydrated. I also noticed that it helps to reduce redness, and my skin overall feels calmed. There's also a very light scent that I absolutely love. It smells like crisp, spring water… It's so refreshing. I'm so glad I decided to give it a try; I will definitely be repurchasing!" —Tiffany

Promising review: "I love this product! It provides a cooling feeling under my eyes but does not burn at all. It truly works, too. I've noticed a huge improvement with my puffiness and dark circles. With the affordable price, I will be continuing to purchase this product and suggest it to anyone who will listen." —Kimberly

Promising review: "I have dry skin on my face, and I use this as my facial moisturizer. It’s done wonders in evening out my skin tone and in creating a nice glow. I’m happy with my purchase." —John

Promising review: "I love the smell and how makes my skin feel so soft and creamy. I love how my skin drinks up the lotion. Feel very natural and healthy. Will buy more and look into there other products!" —Irma

Promising review: "I've been using Asepxia for four years now and have not had one breakout, and my whole body feels clean with no residue. I really like this product. It is wonderful for teenagers, as my grandson also uses it and has no breakouts." —eva 

Promising review: "I love these blue illuminating under-eye masks! I need them so badly! I struggle with under-eye puffiness and bags. These feel so good when I put them on after a long day at work or even first thing in the morning. They help reduce the puffiness which keeps me buying them!" —Paige

Promising review: "Absolutely love this eye cream! In as little as two weeks' time, the dark circles and puffiness under my eyes have disappeared! I pat my eyes with water and then apply this eye cream in the morning, and the skin around my eyes looks hydrated and moisturized. I will be ordering this eye cream again and again and again. I'm also going to try more of the Fortify facial products as well." —Jeanne

Promising review: "Great everyday moisturizer for sensitive skin! I've been using Cetaphil Moisturizing Lotion for a while, and it has become one of my go-to products. The texture is lightweight, non-greasy, and absorbs quickly, leaving no residue. It keeps my skin hydrated throughout the day, especially during colder months when my skin tends to get dry." —Nadeem

Price: $3.17+ (available in five sizes) 

Promising review: "What I liked about both cucumber and the rose water spray is that it simply works, it locks in my daily moisturizing routine, and smells great! The price is right, and I like the smaller bottles for my tote or purse. Definitely a go-to for me." —Diana

Promising review: "I like to do a skin mask once a week or so, and this one smells so nice, feels very good, and leaves my skin looking and feeling very nice. I got a bunch on clearance sale, and I like it so much I'll buy more at full price — for me that's about the highest compliment I can give a product, lol." —Mac

Promising review: "Took it on my trip to Panama and it seemed to work really well while out in the sun on the beach and at the pool, smells nice too. I would recommend this product." —shortcake58

Promising review: "I ordered these masks to have a fun spa night with my sisters and our daughters! Everyone loved it! It was an awesome spa girls' day! I definitely recommend trying them out!" —Victoria

Promising review: "This face moisturizer is my holy grail, especially for the cold weather, because my skin gets drier. I don’t know what I’d do without this moisturizer, and it lasts so long, whether you get the small size or the big size. A little goes a long way. and it always makes my makeup look amazing. I love love looveeee ponds." —Maria

Promising review: "The texture was buttery. It really helped my dry lips. And it's very easy to use." —Eleigha

Promising review: "I used to only use these when traveling, but started using them as a part of my nightly skincare routine along with Olay's retinol 24 night cream. I feel like both of these are helping my wrinkles and skin quality overall. Love that it's fragrance-free. And like the lightweight packaging, which makes it easy to travel with." —Hannah

I recently started using this, and it feels lovely on my lips. It makes my lips look and feel super soft. The vanilla scent and flavor remind me a lot of ice cream or a sugar cookie. 

Promising review: "This lotion feels very good on my face. Not heavy or sticky at all. I thought it might feel more like sunscreen than lotion, but that is not the case. I have been using it daily." —Satisfied

Promising review: "My go-to lip exfoliation product! It moisturizes and exfoliates all in one step. Great for carrying in your purse. No need to rinse off." —Tanya

Promising review: "Feels so light on the skin, not heavy at all, and very moisturizing. definitely gives you the glazed donut look too!" —Hailey

Promising review: "I've noticed it makes my skin appear smoother, and it's gotten rid of most of the large pores and helps make blackheads disappear and also look less obvious. I definitely think it's worth the money and the smell 😅" —Hannah
