Best Drugstore Moisturizer

Best Drugstore Moisturizer


Wow I haven't done one of these in ages. A great entry considering it's now emerging into the winter season, a time of tinsel, gingerbread and dry, flaky skin.


Neutrogena Healthy Skin Anti Wrinkle Cream
























As a recipient of Allure's Best of Beauty, this product needs to be on every girls shelf!
A white, lightweight cream that absorbs well into the skin, without leaving it feeling greasy. This is a great moisturizer for nighttime and it's oil-free so it doesn't clog your pores. This scent free cream comes in a metal tube (to preserve the retinol). While I don't use this cream for it's anti-wrinkle effects, many woman have reported minimized lines and improved texture after only weeks!


Vaseline Petroleum Jelly




Ahhh what a classic! Even though we often purchase bigger and better products than this, we always seem to head back to this jay with the blue lid. Why? Because Vaseline is unscented, unflavored, hypoallergenic and extremely moisturizing! Having an allergic reaction to this product is almost unheard of which makes it a great universal moisturizer. It's versatile and it's many uses include: makeup remover, lip balm, clear mascara, removing rings, etc. Apply a thin of Vaseline where moisture is needed and marvel how rockin' smooth the skin feels!


Olay Regenerist Night Cream

My mom goes through these jars like candy! This scented lavender cream hydrates and leaves the skin feeling smooth and healthy. This night cream gives a slight "lifting effect"to the skin, leaving it firmer and more youthful. That being said, it is more of a night cream than a miracle wrinkle remedy, so don't expect more than a subtle improvement to lines.


Nivea Aqua Sensation



A lightweight and refreshing gel/cream with invigorating scent to lift up your day. This moisturizer has a gentle cooling effect and makes skin feel super smooth and soft. Aqua Sensation comes in a heavy glass jar with a lid. A great summer moisturizer, perhaps too light for the winter season.


Aveeno Positively Radiant Daily Moisturizer




This is a gentle moisturizer, perfect for those with sensitive or acne prone skin. Positively Radiant leaves the skin feeling soft and also works to clear the complexion. This makes a great day cream and contains SPF 15 and subtle shimmer to glow in the sunlight (:


Have you tried these moisturizers before?
