The drugstore skincare recommendations from /r/skincareaddiction are usually
I've been using this for about a year and it's been working well. I have no desire to "upgrade" to more expensive products. In fact I just got some samples of clinique moisturizers and I find I don't like them as much as my $10 CeraVe.
I've also found to great masks. Not sure if they're "drugstore" strictly, but I found them at walmart.
YASSSS!!!
Ladies in your late 20s, what are the biggest skin changes you've noticed so far? Right now, I totally see my under eye area changing overnight -- it's scary! I have a skincare routine that I swear by now or else I am in panic mode:
FACE

For sure! The Freeman Masque (linked to amazon) is at CVS/Walgreens for around 3-4$, they also sell single use pouches of it along with their other masques (avacodo, oatmeal, etc) which are nice if you just want to try it once without committing to an entire bottle.
The La Roche-Posay (haven't seen this in stores, I just ordered it from their website, but linked to amazon here) is sort of pricey for the amount you get, but since I only use it once a week it lasts a while. It's a gel, with really really (hence ultrafine I suppose) little beads, no strong fragrance to it but a subtle nice smell, and your face feels like polished glass afterwards. I feel like I have pretty sensitive skin and this has never been irritating and is my go to when I feel like I need some physical exfoliation.
Either this face mask or this one! I use face masks all the time and the company came out with these two new ones that I have yet to find in stores yet! I'm dying to try them!
Also, this French Vanilla Tea I had it at a spa a couple months back and have been trying to find it in stores ever since! I'm about to suck it up and order it online.
My skin is combination normal/oily. It's always been mostly clear, but textured and I have larger pores. I live in the South, so heat and humidity are my life. I only really got into skincare this year, before this I just washed and used a moisturizer, then maybe some makeup. I had a really rough year, though, and started exploring skincare as selfcare and a sort of hobby. I'm a research scientist (not dermatology), so reading on the ingredients was fun for me.
Dr. Dennis Gross alpha beta pore perfecting gel. I've been using this for about 8 months and I'm nearly done with the bottle (I started with a travel size). I like it fine, haven't had any issues. I don't know that I've seen any fancy results, but I didn't really expect any from a face wash.
Charcoal and Black Sugar Scrub. I've been using this 3-4 times per week for years. I'm not really sure who makes it, I buy the CVS version, but it's carried in several places under different branding (Ulta, Amazon). It's like $4 and I usually buy a couple at a time. I use it in the shower, put it on, let it set while I do something else, then I scrub with it. You can feel a slight warming when you put it on, and the longer you let it set while you're in the shower, the smaller the sugar granules get, so you can customize the scrub. I like physical exfoliation, so this stuff is my jam!
Paula's Choice-SKIN PERFECTING 2% BHA Liquid Salicylic Acid I've been using this as my toner for the past year. I like it, but I recently purchased something else to try when I run out.Lint Free Cotton Pads Specifically, these. I felt like I was wasting so much product with cotton or cloth rounds I finally switched to these and then measured it out. I was using 1.5ml with a disposable cotton round, 2ml with a reusable cloth round, and I use 0.5ml with these.
Supergoop Everyday Sunscreen I feel like half of my comments here are shilling for this sunscreen. I love it. I'm not sure what ingredient it is in most sunscreens that stings my face, but I went through probably a dozen brands before finding this (don't worry, everything that didn't work for me was donated to friends!) It doesn't sting, it goes on easy, and it's even moisturizing enough (here in the humid bayou) that I don't need a seperate moisturizer during the day. I loved it so much that I started buying it in the 48oz pump jug! I use it on all exposed skin every day. This stuff is my ride or die, it is my holy grail. If I was only allowed to have one thing for the rest of my life, this would be it. You can give me all the free sunscreen samples you want, but I'd just give them away and keep buying this, that's how much I love it. Also, their customer service is great and they're quick to answer questions if you contact them through facebook!The Ordinary's 5% Alpha Lipolic Acid
The Algenist Yeah, I'm giving this line it's own category because we're in love. I've been slowly trying their products and have fallen head over heels for a lot of them. I'm honestly afraid to review them because I'll sound like I'm being paid, but alas, I am paying them for their products. (Please, Algenist, pay me? Hire me as a tester for all of your things?) A lot of their stuff I've bought in trial/travel size, sometimes in kits.
---Genius Sleeping Collagen This is the product that did it for me. Sephora had a coupon code where you would get 10 packets (1ml each) of this stuff with the claim that you would see results in 10 days. I ordered it, but then when I saw the price (it's $98 for a 60ml jar), I wasn't sure if I should try it! I'm not sure how they concluded that you'd need 1ml per night, because that was about 2.5 applications for me. It sounds crazy, but there was a difference in my skin texture after one use. By day 5, I bought the jar. I've been using it for 6 months now and have about 1/4 of the jar left. I've already repurchased (I was that close to getting Rouge status and wanted the points lol)
---AA Barrier Serum This was the second product of theirs I tried, and it was the thing that made me obsessed with the brand. Sephora (bless them) was offering a 15ml trial of it with purchase, and so I had to go find something to buy so I could get it. Again, I ordered the full size in days. It contains niacinamide and I find it hydrating as well, to the point where it's replaced several of my other serums.
---Genius Ultimate Anti-Aging and Vitamin C serum This was meh for me, but in fairness, I have never been impressed with a vitamin C serum and I've tried a few.
---Genius liquid collagen lip Also meh. I somehow ended up with 2 tubes of it when they were offering a blind grab bag of products on their website. I've been using it every day, but I don't see any results. Maybe I would is I had thin or wrinkled lips? It does feel nice going on, has a mild tingle, but I don't know that I'd purchase it on my own.
---Genius Liquid Collagen This shit is the truth. I had 2 blister pack trials (1ml each) sitting around and finally decided to try them, but I also decided that I wasn't going to like it based on my experience with the lip collagen. The blister packs were good for about 2.5 applications each. The night of my third application, I washed my face and was thinking that my skin was looking awesome and wondered briefly if I'd been doing anything new. I looked over at my shelf and didn't see anything, but then I saw the remnants of the blister pack on the counter and shrieked! I think ordered it from my phone then and there. My skin texture and tone have improved. The hollows beneath my eyes don't seem as sunken. This stuff is liquid gold.
---Power recharging night pressed serum Meh. This didn't do much for me. But I gave the remaining sample to a friend and she loves it. She's older than me and said he did a lot for her fine lines.
---Perfect Clarifying Pore Correcting Mask I love a good mask and this is a good one! I love the way it feels, just barely cooling. You leave it on for 10-ish minutes and then wash it off. I've used it twice so far in place of the "Aztec Secret" clay mask and i prefer it a lot.
---Reveal Color Correcting Eye Serum Brightener I like this. I got a trial size and I've been using it under my eyes every morning. I don't have dark circles, but I do have hollow under eyes (I got restylane in my tear troughs a year ago, and it helped a lot, but it wasn't the perfect fix I'd hoped it would be.) I'll probably buy this when I run out.
---Genius Ultimate Anti-Aging Bi-Phase Peel I'm not sure how I feel about this yet. I got this expecting it to be like the alpha lipolic acid I get from The Ordinary, but this one is much, much gentler. You apply, then you're supposed to rinse it off after a couple minutes, sort of like the Pixi peel pads, but this is just very mild. You get a really soft menthol-type cooling, sort of like the person next to you is eating a mint. It's not at all drying, which i like, but I don't know if it's exfoliating enough for me? I'm going to keep using it, but I'm not sold on it yet.
Serums
I've tried A LOT of serums in the past year. I've learned that I'm not crazy about The Ordinary's serums, they're often too thick and pill instead of absorb. I really enjoyed Niod's multi-molecular hyaluronic complex, and I may re-purchase it in the future. Niod talks a big game about their Copper Amino Isolate, but I got absolutely nothing out of it at all. If you're looking for cheap serums, I'd recommend The Inkey List over The Ordinary. I never had any pilling and had decent results with their hyaluronic acid as well as their polyglutamic acid.

Does this product have any red flags for skin care products, or would this typically benefit me? I often have rough dead skin on my face and usually would use this to remove it. My face is typically oily. Is it safe to use on skin in general, or should I find another exfoliant?
