Celebs’ Favorite Drugstore Beauty Buys

Celebrities and makeup artists have a dirty little secret: As they get red-carpet ready, many of the beauty tools and products they use are from the everyday drugstore-and they cost less than $9! Here we reveal the 10 drugstore beauty products that celebrities and their makeup artists swear by.


Cetaphil Daily Facial Cleanser


For less than coffee and a scone at Starbucks, you can use the same facial cleanser adored by Jennifer Garner, Natalie Portman, and Jessica Alba. It also tops many dermatologists' must-buy lists. $9.19 at CVS


Maybelline Great Lash Mascara


It's no surprise that Maybelline's Great Lash Mascara is a makeup bag must-have-almost every celebrity sings its praises at one point or another. Recently, Kate Beckinsale told InStyle Magazine, "A lot of fancy mascaras flake and get cakey. This is really cheap, and you can get it anywhere." $5.93 at Amazon.com


L'Oreal Colour Juice Lip Gloss


Lucy Lui swears by her L'Oreal's Colour Juice lip gloss. Available in shades like Raspberry Smash, Strawberry Smoothie, and Peek-A-Boo Clear, there's a color to compliment every skin tone. $6.78 at Drugstore.com


Smith's Rosebud Salve


This little pot of lip balm is a favorite of many A-list movie stars including Katherine Heigl and Eva Longoria.$5.59 at Drugstore.com


John Frieda Frizz-Ease Hair Serum

Found in almost every hair stylist's bag of tricks, Frizz-Ease Hair Serum not only smoothes unruly hair but it also kicks up the shine. Sarah Jessica Parker relies on it to tame her curly mane. $8.99 at Drugstore.com


Covergirl Outlast Lipstain

Celebrity makeup artist Sam Fine recently told a group of beauty bloggers and editors that his favorite long-lasting lip color is Covergirl Outlast Lip Stain. Gossip Girl actress Leighton Meester and singer Brandy are also fans. $7.84 at Walmart.com


Palmer's Cocoa Butter Body Lotion

Katy Perry told Glamour magazine she loved Palmer's Cocoa Butter Body Lotion in high school-and that she still swears by it today! Jennifer Lopez also considers the lotion one of her all-time favorite beauty products. $8.29 at Drugstore.com


Neutrogena Transparent Facial Bar

The Neutrogena Facial Cleansing Bar is a well-renowned part of Jennifer Aniston's daily beauty regimen. Yes, it's also part of most teenagers' daily routine but with a price tag of $2.79 (at Drugstore.com), it makes perfect sense!


Olay Daily Facials Express Clean Wipes

One of the beauty tools in Kim Kardashian's beauty bag is this pack of Olay Daily Facial Wipes. She's such a big fan that in a recent interview, she referred to the wipes as her "saving grace!" $4.79 at CVS


Clairol's Natural Instincts Hair Color

Just this past summer in a blog post for XOJane, Courtney Cox revealed she dyed her hair at home with Clairol Natural Instincts Hair Color: "The $9 drugstore beauty item I buy every 28 days." That might be the best celebrity endorsement we've heard all year! $6.99 at Walgreens
