15 Beauty Steals You Should Be Buying From Trader Joe's
Trader Joe's
Hyaluronic Moisture Boost Serum, $8.99
Trader Joe's hyaluronic acid serum costs under $10 and works just as well as the pricier guys. The unscented, ultra-lightweight formula absorbs quickly and leaves you with a plump, dewy complexion.
Trader Joe's
Rose Water Facial Toner, $3.99
This is one facial spray we love to mist on all day long. Formulated with rose water, rose essential oil and witch hazel, it soothes, tones and hydrates, while leaving behind behind a wonderful, natural rose scent.
Trader Joe's
Shea Butter & Coconut Oil Hair Mask, $3.99
This thick, rich, coconut-scented hair mask works wonders on distressed tresses. Smooth on the shea butter, argan, coconut and vitamin E oil blend and leave it on while you shower — then rinse away for softer and shinier hair.
Trader Joe's
Blueberry & Acai Facial Scrub, $5.99
This blueberry muffin-scented scrub is like a mini facial in a jar. It's formulated with natural AHAs to exfoliate, colloidal oatmeal to soothe and moisture-rich oils to hydrate. Use it several times a week for smooth, glowy, even skin.
Trader Joe's
Organic Argan Oil, $6.99
At an unheard of price, this 100-percent organic argan oil is a steal. The lightweight hydrator can be used to moisturize everything from head to toe without any residual greasiness — you can use it as a body and face moisturizer, a smoothing hair oil, a cuticle treatment and so much more.
Trader Joe's
Pumpkin Body Butter, $4.99
This is one of those products we patiently wait for every fall, along with all of Trader Joe's other yummy seasonal offerings. The creamy, spicy, body butter smells good enough to eat, and you'll want to slather it everywhere for some seriously soft skin. It may not quite be pumpkin spice season yet, but Trader Joe's currently has a seasonal cucumber and avocado version that's just as delightful.
Trader Joe's
Micellar Cleanser & Makeup Remover Towelettes, $3.99
You'll want to tuck these babies into your gym or travel bag. The ultra-gentle, alcohol-free wipes easily remove a full face of makeup without stripping your skin. They leave your face totally clean and hydrated, which makes them perfect for on the go (or when you're just too lazy to wash your face before bed).
Trader Joe's
Spa Face Wash with Tea Tree Oil, $5.99
If you have combination or oily skin, you're going to love this cleanser. A blend of castille soap, chamomile extract and coconut, tea tree and lavender oils works to deep clean problematic skin. After repeated use, you'll notice fewer breakouts, softer skin and a balance in oil production. So good.
Trader Joe's
Honey Mango Cream Shave, $3.99
A little goes a long way with this giant tube of non-foaming shave cream. The skin-softening, paraben-free formula is enriched with aloe and vitamin E to give you a close, smooth shave and protect against nicks. We especially love the sweet, tropical, honey mango scent.
Trader Joe's
Spa Lavender Hand & Body Lotion, $4.99
If you can't get enough of the relaxing scent of lavender , you'll love this hydrating, hand and body lotion. The lightweight formula absorbs so quickly and won't leave you feeling sticky or greasy.
Trader Joe's
Sunscreen SPF 50 Spray, $5.99
This lightweight spray sunscreen is a major steal, clocking in at less than $6. The formula is lightweight, unscented, doesn't leave behind a white cast and provides SPF 50 protection. What's not to love? Plus, it even contains moisturizing coconut oil — that's just icing on the cake.
Trader Joe's
Tea Tree Tingle Shampoo, $3.99
Wake yourself up with this truly tingly experience. The cooling blend of peppermint and tea tree oils removes scalp buildup to give you clean, soft, shiny strands with refreshing, herbal scent.
Trader Joe's
Enrich Moisturizing Face Lotion SPF 15, $3.99
This face moisturizer has achieved cult-status among Trader Joe's fans. Formulated with SPF 15, it's the perfect daytime moisturizer because it's lightweight, hydrating, oil-free, unscented and it soaks right in. It's great for helping your skin find that perfect equilibrium and also happens to double as a pretty great makeup base (your makeup will glide right on over it).
Trader Joe's
Lavender Salt Scrub, $5.99
Another intoxicating Trader Joe's product for lavender aficionados: This salt-based scrub is the ideal mix of hydration and exfoliation as the perfectly-sized grains complement the moisturizing blend of almond, apricot and avocado oils. Slough off dry, dead skin to reveal decadent silky smoothness.
Trader Joe's
Refresh Citrus Body Wash, $2.99
With its fragrant citrus blend of orange, lemon, grapefruit and tangerine, this body wash is an instant mood booster. It'll wash away a case of the Mondays just like that, and its gentle, foamy lather will leave skin clean and smooth, not stripped.
