Promising review: "I have suddenly and inexplicably developed an allergy to fragrance. It is super annoying and I was itchy and bumpy; especially on my face, until I figured out my fragrance full products were likely the culprit. I have Vanicream EVERYTHING at this point. Body wash, lotion, face wash, sunscreen and this moisturizing lotion. All of it is great! I live in Colorado and this heavier moisturizing cream keeps my skin from, well, falling off! It is so dry here! I use the lighter lotion on my face and it is delightful too. If you have super sensitive skin this just might be something that works for you too!" —Adrienne

Promising review: "I've struggled my entire life with dry skin, especially dry lips. This is the only ChapStick that actually HEALS my lips. I also use it on any other dry spots on my face. Stop using any other brand." —Emily

Price: $7.75+ (available in two sizes)

Promising review: "I do not claim to understand the science behind these tiny miracles, but they have changed my life. I spent my work day looking forward to going home and putting one of these bad boys on my newly erupted Mt. Zit and the overnight results were shocking. Not only is it grossly satisfying, but it saved me several days of walking around with a bloody crater in my face because my previous method of dealing with unsightly blemishes was to pick pick pick." —Adg

Promising review: "Wow, I love this stuff! I’ve been using it daily for about a month and a half, and never had any negative skin reactions. I tend towards having dry skin, so using a toner to prep my skin for moisture has been excellent. It leaves my face feeling soft and smooth and smells lovely, but the smell doesn’t linger for too long after applying, which is a big plus. I think it’s helped a little with preventing breakouts, (I still break out around when I get my period, but that’s just hormones). I’ve also noticed that it’s helped to even out my skin tone! I feel less red and splotchy now, which I’m super happy about. You can’t beat the price! 10/10 would recommend to a friend." —Sarah Joyce

Price: $9.49+ (available in six styles)

Promising review: "This serum is just as amazing as everyone says it is. I am 67-years-old, and I have light melasma on both of my cheekbones. I have done *everything* to get rid of it (microdermabrasion, other serums, clarisonic exfoliation, and on and on ad nauseam). I wear SPF 50–70 on my face 365 days a year, and I've done that for decades. I also drink a lot of water. It looked as good as it was going to get. Now, my skin looks even better, and the melasma has never been lighter. Overall, my skin tone just looks very even and smooth. Every morning when I look in the mirror at my face, I marvel at how smooth it looks for my age. This is such a terrific product. I just finished my first bottle and I'm on to my second one!" —Rabid Reader

Price: $21.97+ (available in two sizes and a two-pack)

Promising review: "At 68-years-old, I am making my first purchase of 'oil blotting' papers. I must say I was skeptical. But I was quite pleasantly surprised that the 'papers' do remove the oil that causes the shine. Admittedly, I handle things awkwardly (probably using more 'papers' than necessary). However, the product does work. And work well." —John

Price: $6.95+ (available in three styles and various multipacks)

Promising review: "I have struggled with acne consistently since I began hitting puberty in elementary school. Nothing helped and this was my last ditch effort before I got on Accutane. Within DAYS it started working miracles. Now I can finally feel comfortable without makeup, this is something I haven’t felt since childhood. Within a month my skin was pretty much clear. I still have minor hormonal break outs around my period but it is nothing in comparison to how it was. It does bleach fabric so be careful and you have to pair it with a daily moisturizer because it will dry out your skin. These are very small prices to pay for a product that finally works. Try it before you get on any medications!!" —Destiny

Price: $9.39

Promising review: "Bio-Oil is the BEST skin product on the market. I use it as a twice a day — morning and before I go to bed. Small lines have disappeared. My skin is very smooth and seems to glow. A doctor recommended this to one of my friends who told me about it. I have bought several bottles as gifts. Be patient. It will take a few months for you to see notice the changes. I am 71-years-old. No one paid me to write this." —Amazon Customer

Promising review: "I live in the hot and humid climes of Florida where sweat happens to ALL body parts and, yes, irritation sets in (literally and emotionally!). This product has made a major difference in my life this summer. I can apply it under the breasts, go about my day and not be distracted by any sweat or itchiness. The skin beneath my underwire also is no longer irritated, red and bumpy. It's really been a great addition to my life." —L Wooten

Price: $9+ (available in two sizes and also in a pack of two)

Promising review: "Finally a sunscreen that doesn’t make my face itch all day! Sure wish they would bring the price down. Love how it blends in and is soft and moisturizing. I’m 59 and this goes on smooth and doesn’t ball up under my makeup." —Melony

Promising review: "I'm 55-years-old and my skin is a bit sensitive. I don't have a lot of wrinkles, but I'm definitely noticing a few more laugh lines and forehead crinkles than I had a few years ago! I've tried several moisturizers and have not been terribly impressed with any of them until now. This stuff really is great — incredibly hydrating without feeling greasy and it absorbs quickly. It feels great on my skin. In just a few short weeks, I definitely notice an improvement in my skin tone and fewer lines and wrinkles! Plus, the customer service is great. I had questions when I first received the product and got followup response immediately. I will definitely be ordering this product again. I use it in the evening and morning; no need for two different moisturizers. Very pleased!" —sbakey

Promising review: "I have been using this daily for about eight months now. I am 60 years old. It reduced the puffiness and bags under my eyes. I am Sicilian and had dark circles. It has brightened up my eye area. I am very surprised as I have paid much more for eye creams that have done so much less. I recently had pre-cancerous cells removed at the bridge of my nose. After healing, I was left with a dark scar. The dermatologist told me that it would heal over time. Since I began to apply this eye cream, the mark has almost disappeared entirely. I shop constantly from Amazon. This is the first time that I have taken the time to write a review. That's how impressed I am with this product. If you decide to purchase this, you won't be sorry." —Lynda M.

Promising review: "After being to multiple dermatologists and not having any luck, I was feeling hopeless. I started to accept my acne was chronic, since I’m 25 and have had it since 13. My dermatologist had always told me 5% benzoyl peroxide is the same as 10%, so don’t use it. Well, 12 years later and no results, I decided to not listen to the 'expert' and give it a try for myself. I held out until the six-week mark to give it a full chance. Through dry skin, extra moisturizing, and washing my face with this product twice per day as directed (letting it sit on my face for three to five minutes before washing) I am pleased to report my skin is the clearest it has ever been in the past 12 years. When I was talking to one of my clients about this product, she said, 'I didn’t know you had acne, your skin looks so smooth and porcelain.' Well... that was a new one! I am so glad I took the risk! It will definitely dry out your skin, so find a good moisturizer." —Mackenzie

Promising review: "I wished there was a way to give this product 10 stars. Let me first say I'm a VERY picky retinol user. I usually use a high end organic product (aka: Origins) but thought I'd give this one a whirl given the reviews. I'm a tried and proven convert now. I LOVE this product. It is so luxurious, never causes burning, peeling or redness. Truthfully, I think this is best retinol cream I've ever used and that's just how it FEELS on my skin. Let's talk results. This product changed the playing field. With one use, I could tell this was different. I'm addicted now and have a hard time finishing up my other products! People at work ask me what I'm doing to my skin. They tell me how super soft, supple and radiant my skin looks. I thought it was just me that noticed but others have too. I don't want to waste any other existing product so I'm going to still use that up first before ordering more, but once it's gone, I'll be ordering this full time from now on. I'm also going to try out their other products as well." —GFresh

Promising review: "At 60-years-old I have tried SO MANY products...anything short of surgery to lift and tighten my face. Around the age of 57 my pores became larger and larger. I tried product after product and spent hundreds trying to find that fountain of youth. There is nothing like going into a store with sales people younger than my grandchildren telling me what I'm doing 'wrong' with my skin care regime. They had never seen a wrinkle in their lives. I thought I would give this face mask a shot. I mean what did I have to lose? Immediate results! I couldn't believe it! My pores were small; my face was different...and in a good way..lol. I can't believe my skin looks so good. I'm so excited. I had to write a review. I don't think you'll be sorry if you decide to try this. I know I sure wasn't!" —Judi

Promising review: "I used this after an overzealous micro-dermabrasion facial left part of my face scraped raw. Seriously, it looked like I had face-planted on concrete. And I am a slow healer. After tons of frantic internet research, I stumbled upon this cream. It accelerated the healing process to a few days and without scars or complications. Love the cream." —Ljtrue

Promising review: "I have bought this from Amazon and in store at Walmart, and both have been THE BEST thing I have ever used on my skin! I get hormonal acne that will NOT go away. I've used Curology, Proactiv, Adapalene, this is the only thing that gets rid of my acne, clears a pimple in like TWO DAYS (i'm talking the big, nasty suckers that never surface and stick around for MONTHS), and leaves my skin soooo soft, gets rid of oil (i have pretty oily skin), tightens my pores, decreases the purple hyperpigmentation that pimples leave, and clears my complexion. I literally cannot rave about this enough!! Don't even question it, just buy it! Also, a container has like 25+ uses in it for me. Leave it on for 30 minutes for oily skin, use it 2–3 times a week, my skin is FLAWLESS! I've NEVER had good skin before this!" —Natalie

Price: $14.95+ (available in two sizes)

Promising review: "Amazing product! I've suffered with KP on my arms for 15 years and nothing helped. This product didn't just help, it completely cleared it away! I noticed a big difference after just one use and a month later of using it two times a week my arms are smooth and I'm no longer embarrassed of them. I'm so excited! This product has changed my life!" —Sherrie

Price: $12+ (available in four sizes and also in a two pack)

Promising review: "I’ve always been in awe of ladies who have silky smooth legs and have wondered what I’m missing...Tend Skin is what I’ve been missing! Wish I would’ve found this a decade ago. My legs (and arms...I get little bumps on the back of my arms above my elbow) have never been so SMOOTH! Even my husband commented and asked what I’m doing different. This is such a wonderful product, and I always make sure to have a backup on hand so I don’t run out!" —Anna A.

Price: $18.99+ (available in two sizes)

Promising review: "This is the first time I have tried anything like this. I just had cataract surgery that eliminated my need for glasses (which I have worn for 60 years). As one might guess, the absence of glasses uncovered dark circles and bags under my eyes, which are now very pronounced. I purchased this product and used it a few times (so far) and my housemates tell me they can see a marked improvement, as do I! I would certainly buy these again." —Cathi

Price: $12.97 for a pack of 15 pairs

Promising review: "The texture of this scrub is fabulous; its grainy salt and minerals are perfect for lightly scrubbing away dead dull skin to reveal the new polished skin while the lightweight subtle scented oils in the scrub nourish and soften!! I love using this scrub from neck all the way to my toes! It is the perfect body scrub for the warmer months ahead, it keeps my skin looking fantastic and gives it great moisture without having to slather on heavy lotions that make me sweat in the summer heat! Even my husband noticed a difference in the feel of my skin. He loved how soft and smooth I felt!! Plus the scent is very light and yummy!" —Ardena

Price: $9.99

Promising review: "I’m really impressed with these pads. I’ve suffered from adult cystic acne for about a decade now, and have tried countless products over the years. Adding these things into my skincare routine has made my skin look bright and clear like porcelain. I still get the occasional blemish, but they’re always very small and go away in a day or two. I highly recommend them." —Caroline

Promising review: "I have had with acne for a long time and have tried everything from Accutane to Proactiv to Rodan and Fields. I got this after running out of another pricier aloe cream. This works wonders! It keeps my face and skin clear and acne free. My skin is naturally really dry and I use this 2x a day after washing my face. It goes on under my makeup and works as nice moisturizer/primer for my foundation too. A little bit goes a long one. One 300 mL lasted me 11 months." —Amber A.

Price: $9.31+ (available in three sizes)

Promising review: "I am amazed! I have dealt with eczema all my life. I've used steroid creams/ointments, lotions, wash, you name it. And then I tried this miracle product! In four days, my hands looks better then it ever has! I can bend my finger without pain! I'm sooo happy with the results. And I have only been using it for four days!" —Kelly

Price: $9.98+ (available in packs of one, two, and 12)

Promising review: "I am super busy and not one to ever write reviews, but based on my results with this product I had to take the time. I am so impressed with the softness and glow the next morning. In addition I get adult acne and the healing process as well as reduction of previous scaring has been amazing. Today someone commented, 'You look great...what are you doing???' For a product under $20 you can't go wrong, worth every penny." —Max
