If you ask any dermatologist what the most important part of any skin-care regimen is, they will all say sunscreen. 

That makes the duo of a five-ounce and three-ounce bottle of Neutrogena sunscreen your first beauty product purchase. At $15.99, that’s a super good deal.

Reviewers love how ungreasy the sunblock feels on their faces, as well as how long-lasting and effective it is.

Thank You Farmer Sun Project Water Sun Cream

If you don’t mind paying more for a fancier sunscreen, pick up a two-pack of 1.75-ounce bottles of Thank You Farmer sun cream. At $32.99 it’s definitely a pricier purchase than the Neutrogena option, but if you try it, you’ll see why people are happy to pay for it.

Reviewers compare the product to Elta MD, which is some seriously high-end sunscreen. That tells you all you need to know.

Daeng Gi Meo Ri Ki Gold Premium Shampoo and Treatment Set

Korean skincare is well-known in the beauty space, but there are also Korean hair care products you should try. Specifically, the three-pack of Daeng Gi Meo Ri Ki shampoo and conditioner Costco which sells for $56.99

It promises to give you thicker, fuller, and healthier hair, and reviewers say it does exactly that, as well as detangles long hair nicely.

If you have either a baby or skin that’s as sensitive as a baby’s, the two-pack of 25.35-ounce bottles of Mustela cleansing gel is for you. 

Reviewers extol the virtues of this soap, which has a “flowery-powdery” scent, moisturizes well, and won’t irritate your skin like other products.

All of the products on this list can be used by members of any gender, though the 6.7-ounce bottle of Versace cologne that Costco sells is marketed to men. 

The list price is $75.60 on Amazon, so chances are it will be slightly cheaper at the big-box store. It was recently listed for $69.99.

“Every time I wear this, I receive compliments from women about how fresh and clean this smells,” one member shared. That’s nice praise!

Alteya Organics Bulgarian Rose Water

Not everyone uses toner on their skin, but if you do, the two-pack of eight-ounce bottles of Alteya Organics Bulgarian rose water should be on your radar. 

The duo costs $29.99 and, given that you only need a small amount at a time, should last you quite a long time.

Customers appreciate how it helped with inflammation, improved their complexion, and evened out textures. They noted the good value, too.

Egyptian Magic All Purpose Skin Cream Set

If a product has the word “magic” in its name, it better be good. 

Fortunately, Costco’s $32.99 set of Egyptian Magic skin cream lives up to its name, as noted by customers. They say it moisturizes in the toughest of circumstances, from psoriasis to radiation treatment.

“Never buying another acne cream ever again,” one customer proclaimed. “[This] stuff is so, so, so amazing.” That’s definitely an item you should buy at Costco.

SK-II Facial Treatment Essence with Pump

There is a literal menagerie of anti-aging products out there, each promising to tighten skin, reduce wrinkles, and help manage those pesky under-eye spots. 

However, reviewers say that Costco’s 11-ounce bottle of SK-II face treatment actually lives up to the hype.

Pricing may vary (it was recently $219.99) but it will never be cheap. However, since readers claim it actually works, we think it’s worth it.

If you don’t have naturally long and full lashes and can’t get extensions, Costco’s two-pack of one-ounce RapidLash eyelash enhancing serum is the next best thing. At $54.99 the product isn’t inexpensive, but good makeup is worth the money.

Satisfied customers praised the serum, lauding its ability to help them grow long, thick, lovely lashes. Just note that you have to keep using it to maintain results.

If you were devoted to beauty trends in the ’90s, chances are you plucked your brows as thin as Gwen Stefani did. 

Fortunately, Costco sells a two-pack of RapidLash eyebrow enhancing serum to help you fill in those Instagram eyebrows — for the same cost as the eyelash serum.

“I honestly thought the hair would never grow there again,” one member raved. “Highly recommend this product!!”

Finish up your eye makeup routine with Vasanti Kajal eyeliner, which Costco carries in a two-pack for a mere $27.99. It’s designed for your waterline, but you can also use it on your lash line as members say they’ve done.

They also praise the fact that it’s easy to apply, doesn’t smudge, and comes off with soap and water. What else could you want from an eyeliner?

What's better than a brand-new tube of high-quality lipstick? The 16 that you get in the Artis lipstick collection for $139.99. Colors range from mauve and pink to yellow and maroon, so there’s a good chance several of them will work with your complexion.

“It's a great value for the price, and the quality of both the lipsticks and the brush is top-notch,” one reviewer summed up. We’re sold.
