Ep 153 Bonus Episode! The Best Drugstore Skincare Products to Buy in Canada This Month
We know our #podfam loves a good drugstore find, so we’ve partnered with Shoppers Drug Mart in Canada to get the 411 on the skincare musts that are sure to pop off in January. Just in time for your New Year skin resolutions, maybe you’re looking to add a new step to your skincare routine, or maybe you’d like to try out a buzzy ingredient you keep hearing about. Well, we went on a virtual, VIP shopping trip with Shoppers Beauty Pro Chanel Cruz, who fills us on everything from a new, 20% vitamin C capsule that’s the perfect dupe for a pricier, prestige version, to a brand new retinol treatment that cocoons as it refines. Plus, you’ll find out which affordable under-eye patches the retailer can’t keep in stock, and your new BFF for double-cleansing the lazy-slash-busy way.
The drugstore insider has all the intel on what’s been selling out since the start of the pandemic – and how consumer skincare habits and attitudes have been changing at home, too. And finally, how on earth do you find the perfect, personalized skincare products when you’re shopping online during a lockdown? Big news! We’ve got the scoop on the retailer’s new, Virtual Skin Analysis Tool that gives you a real-time skin diagnosis, with customized product recommendations -- AND earn those Optimum points -- all without leaving the comfort of your couch.
