I Gave Up Luxury Beauty Products for a Month. These Are the Drugstore Products I LovedIn the name of beauty, I ditched all my expensive products to find the drugstore ones that would make me swoon |

A facial peel is an essential part of my skin care routine (I use one at least once a week to keep my skin smooth and radiant), so I was determined to find one for the purposes of this experiment. And, yes, I get that this is a tad more expensive than typical drugstore products, but you can buy it at CVS, so it counts.
This tube is packed -- and I mean packed -- with amazing ingredients, like Kaolin clay, papaya leaf, hyaluronic acid, manuka honey and, of course, the brand's shining star: purified bee venom. It tingles as it goes on, and dries in about 15 minutes. It left my skin slightly pink and glowy, but it didn't feel tight or irritated. It's helping clear the congestion on my nose and chin -- something I've been trying to do for years.
But maybe the best part: You get to peel it off your face at the end, which is oddly satisfying, if a tad "American Psycho."
