These Are The Most Affordable & Highest-Rated Skincare Products on Amazon

Cosmedica Skincare Hyaluronic Acid Serum, $15, Amazon

A hyaluronic acid serum for under $20 with almost 5,000 five-star reviews? If it sounds too good to be true, you're not alone. But this serum is legit. Hyaluronic acid is a cult-favorite ingredient for dry skin because of how intensely hydrating it is — though all skin types, from sensitive to oily, can benefit from it. Cosmedica's HA formula is totally pure and contains no fillers, fragrance, or other unnecessary ingredients — just the good stuff.

Simple Facial Wipes, 25 Count (2 Pack), $7, Amazon

Face wipes shouldn't be the only step you use in your cleansing regimen, but for the first step in the makeup removal process or to fix smudges, they're a must-have in anyone's beauty kit. Many can be made with irritating ingredients, but not these: just like their name says, they're simple — in the best way possible. Formulated mostly with water and no fragrance, Simple's Facial Wipes remove waterproof makeup and leave skin soft. Plus, since they come in a two-pack, you'll have an extra to stash in your gym bag.

La Roche-Posay Effaclar Purifying Foaming Gel Cleanser, $15, Amazon

For oily skin, there are few better cleansers than this one from La Roche-Posay's Effaclar line. It's a gel that foams up into a rich lather and leaves your skin shine-free and squeaky-clean. It doesn't contain alcohol, but it does contain fragrance — yet many users with sensitive skin swear by it.

One fan raves, "This stuff WORKS. I have very oily acne-prone skin and have tried all sorts of things with minimal success. I have been washing my face twice a day with this stuff for about two weeks now and the difference is incredible! I haven't gotten any new large pimples and everything I had has cleared up."

Aveeno Positively Radiant Daily Face Moisturizer with Broad Spectrum SPF 15, $13, Amazon

If you're looking for a basic, affordable daily moisturizer, you can't do much better than this classic drugstore pick from Aveeno. In addition to being oil-free and non-comedogenic, it contains an SPF of 15, checking off all the major moisturizer boxes.

One reviewer says, "So far, the best [drugstore] brand of moisturizer that I have tried. My skin is on the oily side, especially in the summer months. It doesn't leave my skin looking like a sweaty, greasy mess like some other SPF moisturizers, but it does a good job of hydrating it."

ESARORA Ice Roller, $12, Amazon

Keep this bad boy in your freezer and you'll become shocked at how you ever lived without it before. Not only is the ESAROR ice roller great at depuffing skin, but it can also help ease sinus pain and headaches.

One facialist writes, "I use this ice roller in my esthetician treatment room after extractions, peels and/or waxing. My clients love it! It drastically reduces inflammation and swelling...thereby leaving the skin in a much healthier state."

Boots No7 Protect and Perfect Advanced Intense Facial Serum, $25, Amazon

Though perhaps a bit lesser-known than some of the cult-classics on this list, the No7 Protect And Perfect Serum from British pharmacy brand Boots is one of the most popular serums in its price category. It's a great serum because it targets such a multitude of skin concerns: loss of elasticity, hyperpigmentation, fine lines. Plus, it's non-greasy and leaves skin super smooth and soft.

"I have definitely noticed an improvement in my complexion and skin tone," shares one user. "The bottle has lasted much longer than I thought it would (3 months) with application twice per day ... After 3 months my skin looks more youthful and fresh. I also like the silky feel and quick absorption."

Timeless Skin Care 100% Pure Squalane, $13, Amazon

Squalane oil is an incredibly beneficial ingredient that's recently become popular in the beauty scene. But so many of these pure oils can cost upwards of $50. Leave it to Timeless Skin Care to produce another amazing, undiluted formula at an incredible price. Squalane is both an incredible moisturizer and a wrinkle-fighter, and unlike many other oils, it's quite lightweight and fast-absorbing.

One reviewer raves, "This oil is the sole reason I now feel comfortable walking around with no make up on ... It has completely eradicated all the small under the surface white bumps I had on my forehead, it has improved the texture of my skin, and it has faded my acne scars on my cheek to the point that they are almost gone." Another said it produced "shocking results after only a week."

Garnier SkinActive Moisture Rescue Face Moisturizer, $6, Amazon

This super refreshing gel-cream is like a water bomb for your face. It's oil-free, enriched with skin-brightening vitamin C, and works to strengthen your skin's moisture barrier. Plus, it provides 24 hours worth of hydration. People who hate thick lotions will love this gel moisturizer — and though this green one is specifically formulated for those with combination skin, it also comes in a similar, slightly more soothing version for extra dry skin.

Tinkle Eyebrow Razor (6 Pack), $6, Amazon

The Tinkle is an eyebrow razor first, but it also doubles as an amazing skin dermaplaner. Use it all over your face to shed the outermost layer of dead skin — skin will not only be ridiculously soft, but you'll find that your foundation looks much smoother, too. Don't worry about nicks and cuts — it's super gentle and comes with a stainless steel safety cover to prevent accidents.

Not only is it an Amazon number-one best-seller with a near-perfect rating and over 2,000 reviews, but it has users calling it "the best product ever!" One writes, "I never thought of shaving my face and am not a hairy person but learned that makeup goes on much smoother and I no longer have to wax or tweeze using this product. It's amazing what removing peach fuzz can do for your complexion!"

Thayers Alcohol-Free Rose Petal Witch Hazel Toner with Aloe Vera, $9, Amazon

Dry and/or sensitive skin types can have a hard time finding a toner they can use. But this one by Thayers is alcohol-free and infused with skin-soothing rose water and nourishing organic aloe vera. This mix will combat any of the drying effects of witch hazel, the other star ingredient in the formula, which works to tone skin, prevent breakouts, and tighten pores.

Over 4,000 reviewers are fans. "THIS WILL CHANGE YOUR SKIN 100%," raves one reviewer, calling it "The most effective skin care product." Another user said it cleared up her perioral dermatitis , while others swear by it for everything from redness to cystic acne.

CeraVe Daily Moisturizing Lotion, $10, Amazon

A moisturizer you can use on your body and face? Yes, please. CeraVe's classic Daily Moisturizing Lotion is gentle, yet nourishing enough to be used from your head to toes. It contains hyaluronic acid and skin-replenishing ceramides to help soften and hydrate skin. Even better, it's oil-free, fragrance-free, and non-comedogenic, so go ahead and stock up for the whole family. It's worth noting that it also comes in a near-identical cream formula, for those looking for something a bit richer.

"This lotion was recommended to me by my Dermatologist for hypersensitive skin. I also get rosacea and this works well after I get out of the shower. It is unscented and doesn’t have any irritants in. I strongly recommend this to anyone with sensitive skin or people who cannot deal with harsh products that contain a lot of chemicals and perfumes," shares one reviewer.

KOSE Softymo Speedy Cleansing Oil, $10, Amazon

Cleansing oils are used as the first step in the double cleansing process (followed by a water-based cleanser, like a gel or foam) because they remove makeup so adeptly — and this is one of the best ones out there. Unlike many other oil cleansers that leave skin greasy, though, this one can also be used on its own, without a follow-up cleanse. It leaves skin soft and clean, and takes off even the most stubborn waterproof makeup with ease.

Weleda Skin Food, $10, Amazon

This ultra-rich balm-cream has a literal worldwide following for its many, many uses. Some people use Weleda Skin Food as a face moisturizer, while others use it as a makeup remover, lip balm, or cuticle cream. Makeup artists use it to highlight their cheekbones and eyelids, and it's also amazing for healing cracked heels and dry elbows. You can basically put this stuff anywhere, and it's made by a natural, NATRUE-certified European brand.

Prop tip: warm it up in your hands before applying, especially if it's going on your face.

Dermal Korea Collagen Essence Facial Mask Sheets (16 Pack), $11, Amazon

Over 3,000 Amazon users are fans of this 16-pack of skin-plumping sheet masks. They're all enriched with collagen and skin-softening essence to leave your skin looking radiant and smooth, but each "flavor" also has its own unique benefits. Charcoal and bee venom, for example, help brighten and clarify skin, while royal jelly is deeply nourishing, and aloe soothes and hydrates.

Bioderma Sensibio H2O Micellar Water, $14, Amazon

The no-rinse cleanser that changed makeup removal as we know it: Bioderma's Sensibio H2O Micellar Water. It's inspired countless copycat formulas — even down to the packaging — but none work as well as the original. It removes makeup with just one swipe, leaves zero residue behind, and doesn't sting your eyes. Plus, rinsing afterwards is optional.

Desert Essence Tea Tree Oil Facial Cleansing Pads (50 Count), $7, Amazon

Tea tree has naturally antiseptic properties, which is what makes it such an effective blemish-buster. These tea tree pads are soaked in a formula containing the hero ingredient, as well as skin-soothing essential oils like chamomile and calendula, to stave off future breakouts, quell current breakouts, and reduce excess oil and shine. Plus, they're made by a trusted naturals brand and are free of any harsh ingredients, like fragrance and SLS.

Queen Bee Naturals Peeper Keeper Eye Balm, $17, Amazon

If you're looking for serious nourishment around your eyes, try a balm instead of a cream. Queen Bee Naturals' Peeper Keeper Eye Balm contains a heady mix of vitamin E and 10 moisturizing oils, including jojoba, avocado, and carrot seed, and no other unnecessary additives. Because it's such a natural, skin-safe formula, reviewers are also able to put it on their eyelids without the risk of irritation.

With almost 80 percent five-star reviews, it's clear customers are obsessed. "I have been searching for a product that was safe to apply daily to my eyelids and sensitive skin near my eyes. I live in a dry and dusty area so my eyelids were irritated all the time," shares one reviewer. "I purchased this a month ago ... It's been miraculous. My eye lids don't burn and the redness is gone. It has brought tremendous relief to me."

But Vanicream's Moisturizing Skin Cream was created to solve that issue. It has almost 3,000 reviews, with almost 80 percent being five-star.

They come with little pockets for your fingers that make application a breeze, they smell delicious, and they deliver brighter, clearer, smoother skin with every use.

Garden of Life Organic Extra Virgin Coconut Oil, $8, Amazon

Coconut oil has so many amazing uses. It's an excellent makeup remover, can be used for oil-pulling (an ancient oral hygiene technique), and, when used as a leave-on mask, is one of the best hair treatments out there. It's also an amazing body moisturizer: apply it after the shower and see how soft your skin feels. Though it's typically on the pricey side, this 14-ounce jar costs less than $10 — but it's USDA certified-organic, non-GMO, and made by one of the most trusted naturals brands out there.

Skinfood Black Sugar Mask Wash Off Exfoliator, $10, Amazon

Most exfoliators leave your skin feeling tight and dry — but not this one. Because it uses black sugar granules to exfoliate, which are much gentler (and more nourishing) than traditional gritty ingredients, Skinfood's black sugar mask and exfoliator leaves skin moisturized and soft, as well as clear and flake-free.

"The sugar is a great exfoliant, and when I leave it on after scrubbing, it gets all melty and the other magical ingredients make my skin softer than a unicorn pony. AND it smells delightful," writes one fan.

With almost 3,000 reviews, over 70 percent of users said it helped cure their acne, including those pesky cystic bumps. "This is a life saver for those with adult acne that has refused to yield to any other treatment," one reviewer writes, while another calls it "The best acne treatment I've ever tried." Because it's so strong, dry and/or sensitive skin types should steer clear.

Both dry and oily skin types can benefit from a water gel-cream like this one.

Sdara Skincare Microneedle Derma Roller, $20, Amazon

If you're on the quest for glowing, more radiant looking skin, but none of the products you use have been cutting it, it might be time to try a derma roller. Sdara's is one of the better ones you can get at its price point, and its results are immediate. Using teeny tiny .25mm microneedles, it delivers a professional-level facial treatment at home. It can help with everything from acne scars and hyperpigmentation to dullness and puffiness.

One reviewer claims here severe scarring from cystic acne were 70 percent gone in one night, calling it a miracle. Another said of the results, "Indentations are filling in, raised patches are flattening out, and dark spots are lightening up."

It leaves your skin looking silky and feeling soft, and you can also add it to your bath. Pro tip: apply it onto damp skin — it'll absorb better.

St. Ives Radiant Skin Face Scrub, $3, Amazon

When used properly — aka, a few times a week and not every day — a face scrub can actually do wonders for your skin. This classic pick from St. Ives leaves skin clear and bright, and it also happens to smell delicious. Sensitive skin types might want to steer clear, or only use it once a week. But devoted fans (it has over 4,000 reviews) swear by it for fighting off acne, washing off makeup, and leaving their skin "baby soft."

Other reviewers love to use it on their legs and faces before shaving to reduce razor burn and bumps.

Eucerin Q10 Anti-Wrinkle Face Cream, $9, Amazon

Been looking for the perfect, affordable face cream to promote a smoother, more radiant glow? Here ya' go. Eucerin is such an amazing brand because they don't use any irritating ingredients, and most of their formulas are fragrance-free and gentle, which is why they're so popular with sensitive skin types. The Q10 Anti-Wrinkle Face Cream ticks all those boxes — it's alcohol-free, fragrance-free, non-comedogenic, etc. — but it seriously delivers when it comes to keeping your skin looking renewed and fresh.

One fan, who called it their "miracle cream," says it's "next level good." They add, "Not only did my dryness clear right up, but all my acne is gone now. My skin seriously looks better than ever and I am so happy." Another says, "There are products on the market that are selling for 5 times what this cost [sic] and this is every bit as good."

Silicone Face Mask Brush, $5, Amazon

Applying your face masks — especially those made of clay — can get messy. These silicone brushes, however, are a simple hack. Not only will applying your mask be a much less messy process, but they also ensure your products go on smoother and more evenly. They're also great for mixing masks, if you do choose to pick up a tub of Aztec Clay.

"Makes mixing & applying masks 100x easier," says one reviewer. "Mixing everything with a plastic spoon is wasteful, it never mixes everything together great and can be very sloppy ... Remember, if you use bentonite clay, it can’t come in contact with metal, so the silicone is perfect for mixing it."

CeraVe Facial Moisturizing Lotion PM (2 Pack), $24, Amazon

For those with oily, acne-prone skin, or anyone who hates thick creams, try this lightweight night lotion from CeraVe. It sufficiently hydrates and moisturizes using niacinamide and hyaluronic acid — without the pore-clogging side effects. The best part is, it comes in a two-pack, so you'll be stocked for a while.

Avene Eau Thermale Thermal Spring Water Facial Mist Spray, $15, Amazon

Sure, *technically* it's just water — but there's something about this gentle, hydrating face mist that makes it worthy every penny. Use it for a mid-day or morning refresh, or before applying your creams and serums, since damp skin better absorbs moisture. Buy this one for your fridge and pick up the smaller, travel-sized bottle to keep in your bag — you have no idea how addicted to these skin-soothing spritzes you'll become.

Natural Reusable Cotton Rounds (16 Pack), $11, Amazon

Trying to be more environmentally-conscious? An easy way is to swap out your cotton pads with these reusable bamboo makeup remover pads. They work just as well as their less eco-friendly counterparts and can be used over and over again. Just throw them in the mesh bag, and then throw that in the washing machine (so they don't get lost) to get them clean. Plus, they're gentler on skin and, unlike drugstore-brand cotton pads, not filled with chemical bleach.

Lucas Papaw Ointment, $8, Amazon
