TJ Maxx Goodies
I spend a lot of time in TJ Maxx for skincare.
I don't need the judgement.
First of all, it's 5 minutes from my job so it helps my brain take a break during my lunch. Second of all, there is nothing like parading those aisles and finding a facial serum under $6 that enhances the skin like it cost $100. It is the greatest feeling in the world and I didn't want to keep all my amazing finds to myself, I wanted to share with you.
Pearlessence. This was the biggest surprise of them all and my girl Erica put me all the way on. I think I have every serum, facial oil, mask, sheet mask, cleanser, and so on. I am in love with this product so much but I do have my favorites. The pink clay mask is the most amazing. Every time I use this mask, my face is refreshed, revived, brighter, and smoother. Hemp seed oil is a great soothing and calming facial oil that really works. After I've been a tad bit aggressive with my skin, this oil is in my sensitive skincare routine.
Two of my least favorite products from this brand are the coconut oil because it is too greasy and the charcoal mask because it doesn't strip my skin like I like. I see no difference after using that face mask. But overall this brand is fantastic!
Valjean Labs. I saw this brand in the store and ignored it because I was not familiar and then I saw it on Instagram and decided to take the leap. I have to say I am pleasantly surprised with this brand. I use their clarity serum during my acne routine and I definitely think it helps keep the breakouts at bay. I also have their morning glow facial oil and it does give a great dewy finish without being too oily. It also doesn't hurt that I love the packaging.
Glow Lab caught my eye because of it's packaging. I purchased their glow eye serum and I like it. I like the texture and the feel on my skin. I feel like with eye serums you need to really commit to one for a couple months to see if it really makes a difference. So I can't say this has improved my eyes but I will say it is decent.
Dr Paw Paw I purchased out of its packaging convenience. They have a product that packages their lip scrub and lip balm in one! The scrub is not too harsh and does not have fall out. The lip balm is creamy and has a nice sheen on my lips. This was such a winner but I hope to find more flavors.
There are also big name brands that can be located in TJ Maxx, you just have to search. Like Shiseido, Glam Glow, Laura Mercier, Dr. Brandt, and more. My theory on these brands being discounted so low is they don't have much more shelf life, the jar has been opened or the packaging is damaged. Either way, it's a win. I purchased a $68 face moisturizer for $14,! No one is ever mad at that. I will say what I purchase of high end products I use immediately.
If you are just starting your skincare journey I recommend a TJ Maxx haul. You get way more bang for your buck and the products are amazing. Who doesn't like a deal or should I say a steal? So run to your nearest TJ Maxx and message me while you are there so I can see if you have better stuff at yours!
