A FRUGAL shopper has developed a skin-saving routine with Dollar Tree deals.
Her economic investment helped her turn back time.
METHODS TO SAVE MONEY
Editor Username111312 was on a mission to smooth her combination dry and oily skin with one shopping trip.
It looked like she had achieved her skin care goals and reduced blemishes without breaking the bank.
“I intend to follow this routine and try it out. It’s been a week and I’ve seen great results compared to my old non-existent skincare routine,” she said.
“I noticed a dramatic reduction in redness and irritation, and also less oil production toward the end of the day with more consistent moisturizing,” she continued.
“I wanted affordable, easy-to-buy products that contained common, in-demand skincare ingredients. Dollar Tree had them all.”
At $1.25 each, her five products in total, which gave anti-aging results in both her morning and evening routines, cost less than $7.
One of her favorites was the Skin Nutrition Botanicals Vitamin C Serum.
She shared how the serum “protects skin throughout the day from free radicals and pollutants while also brightening and boosting collagen production.”

She also trusted the Creme De Skin Creations Retinol Night Serum she purchased.
The shopper shared how the key ingredient helped initiate skin cell turnover, “promoting rapid exfoliation and stimulation of collagen and elastin.”
A bottle of Global Beauty Care hyaluronic acid was also reducing redness.
She was a fan of the cream’s “skin hydration/suppleness and moisture barrier.”
Eliminating your blemishes was also possible with your Just4U Oil-Free Acne Wash 2% Salicylic Acid.
She explained how BHA in the form of salicylic acid helps open pores while exfoliating and stimulating the epidermis.
To give “special attention and care” to a “sensitive and often neglected area”, choose this eye serum – Skin Nutritions Age Defy Dark Circles and Puffiness Serum.
She noted how most of the items that provided amazing results also contained niacinamide, an ingredient known to stimulate collagen and keep skin hydrated.
At the end of the routine, she always makes a point of applying an SPF 30+ mineral sunscreen.
GET UP AND SHINE
If you want to keep up with this budget-friendly skincare guru, you can follow her morning routine, which includes “gently” washing your face with a Dove facial cleansing bar.
Be sure to dry your face with a clean microfiber cloth before applying the eye serum.
Her technique also includes applying a drop of vitamin C serum to your finger and spreading it across the five facial zones.
“Left cheek, right cheek, forehead, nose/chin, neck. Wait a bit to absorb it,” she said.
All she needed to complete her method was a pea-sized amount of hyaluronic acid moisturizer and her mineral sunscreen to rub onto her face and neck.
REPEAT THIS
His similar nighttime methods also worked quickly.
While in the shower or sink, she washes her face with Salicylic Acid using a facial cleansing cloth/cloth.
She then repeats this step of her morning routine – drying her face with a microfiber cloth before adding eye cream.
This time she uses her retinol serum on the five facial zones and finishes with her hyaluronic acid moisturizer on the face and neck areas.
Others were also amazed at the “good things” she had found.
“I don’t think it’s necessary to spend a lot of money on skincare products, these seem to be reliable, at least for basic care,” she said.
She noticed that, in addition to not noticing any new acne breakouts, her blemishes also disappeared faster.
She attributed this to “the introduction of retinol and niacinamide, also antioxidants,” into the affordable products.
“Also sunscreen during the day, my face feels much fresher and less irritated, I can be comfortable while driving or being in the sun!” she said.
After all, the main active ingredients were known to fight bacteria, inflammation and increase oil production.
