7 Target Beauty Bargains a Shopping Insider Always Buys
Target
As a decades-long beauty editor and writer, I have tried almost every beauty brand at Sephora, Target, Ulta, and the finest department stores. And because I have the best job in the world, I didn’t have to pay for most of them. However, some body and beauty items are so amazing (and also affordable) that I have no problem forking over cash for them. Here are 7 affordable Target body and beauty items worth the hype that I always have on hand.

Literally every dermatologist I know swears that Aquaphor is a miracle beauty product. I use it on my lips, but some people swear by it for under eyes, as a moisturizer for super dry spots like elbows or knees, or even to soothe blisters. I always have a tube in my nightstand, one in my purse, and another in my car.

My daughter drives a lot of my spending. About six months ago, she forced me to buy Monday Moisture Shampoo and Conditioner, which I have used ever since. It is seriously hydrating and makes my hair look and feel so healthy. I have no trouble combing it out post-wash, and my hair is naturally wavy and tangly. We buy the big bottles, but a standard size is $6.99.
Target
Saltair Santal Bloom Body Wash is another thrifty product I won’t stop buying. I have no qualms about spending hundreds of dollars on Le Labo Santal 33 perfume, but I refuse to splurge on the body wash or lotion. This smells just like it, but costs just $12.99. You can’t go wrong with any of the other scents either.
Target
Hailey Bieber can afford anything on the planet, but recently revealed that during her pregnancy, she “couldn’t live without” Bio-Oil Skincare Oil . This hydrating and healing oil is multi-tasking, perfect for soothing itchy dry skin and preventing stretch marks. I always keep a bottle or two in my cabinet. At $6.49, throw it in your cart ASAP.
Target
My daughter is obsessed with e .l.f. Halo Glow Liquid Filter Highlighter , and so are all her friends. This miracle product adds a glowy, dewy finish to your face. You can also mix it with foundation to prevent the caked-on look.

About 15 years ago, a makeup artist in Los Angeles turned me onto Almay Clear Complexion Concealer and I haven’t stopped using it since. It’s perfect for dabbling on breakouts, as the formula includes salicylic acid. They recently updated the formula to add prebiotics and aloe. It’s a true beauty bargain at $7.99.
Target
My daughter also got me hooked on Tree Hut Body Scrub. I love pretty much every scent they make, but I recently discovered Tree Hut Coco Colada Shea Sugar Coconut Body Scrub . It smells like vacation and leaves my skin feeling soft, smooth, and hydrated everytime.
