Best Drugstore Moisturizer No. 9: RoC Retinol Correxion Max Daily Hydration Creme, $27.49
TotalBeauty.com editor's pick
Why it's great: When it comes to anti-aging skincare, retinol is key. RoC makes the potent ingredient accessible at the drugstore, which makes this one of the best face moisturizers at its price point. It's gentle enough that it won't aggravate sensitive skin and it provides a ton of hydration — and best of all, the retinol really does make a noticeable difference when it comes to dullness and fine lines.
