February Pharmacy Finds: Back To Basics

What Pharmacy Finds have we got in store for you this February?

This month we’ve really gone back to basics and are looking at four classic chemist brands. These products are all available in pharmacies across Australia, but sometimes it’s so easy to overlook the skincare solutions that are staring us in the face!

Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser

bb Brand Partnerships Manager Anna’s Pick:
This dermatologist favourite is really the secret to great skin for sensitive girls. If most cleansers irritate or dry out your skin then it’s time to give Cetaphil a try. This soap substitute preserves your skin’s natural oils and softens your skin as it cleanses. You can even use it without water by simply wiping it off your skin. And it’s available in almost every pharmacy across Australia!

ChapStick 100% Natural Papaw Lip Balm

bb Global Brand Director Sam’s Pick:
ChapStick now does papaw! Could this be the best thing to happen to our lips in 2015? The brand new 100% Natural Papaw Lip Balm is an all natural balm to enrich and moisturise your lips. This is exactly what we’ve been waiting for, and the ladies of bellabox can’t get enough of it.

Aveeno Daily Moisturising Lotion

bb Brand Partnerships Manager Nat’s Pick:
When Jennifer Aniston needs to hydrate her skin after vacationing in Cabo she reaches for the Aveeno Daily Moisturising Lotion. It contains colloidal oatmeal to nourish your skin, and it’s gentle enough to be used on extra dry and cracked skin. You’ll see instant results with one application, and afer 14 days your skin will be softer than ever.

Benzac AC Gel

bb Beauty Editor Julia’s Pick:
This month my personal pick is simple old Benzac. I’ve tried every pimple treatment out there, and there is no such thing as an overnight fix. But Benzac AC Gel comes the closest. The active ingredient benzoyl peroxide helps to unblock pores and kill acne bacteria. Unlike most acne treatments this comes in different strengths, and if you’re a first time buyer you should start with 2.5%.
