As much as I love testing out new skincare like tinted sunscreen and face serums, I don’t love the high price tag that often comes with these types of products. Instead, I prefer stocking up on skincare and beauty essentials when there’s a sale going on, or I’ll find a good deal on a brand I like — fun fact: I’ve never spent more than $50 on a single product. 

To save on end-of-summer essentials, like some of the best sunscreen and makeup primers with SPF, I’m eyeing tons of beauty products in the Amazon Outlet store — a hidden section of the online retailer stocked with deals on tons of popular brands like Neutrogena, Bliss, IT Cosmetics, and more. I’ve rounded up my favorite picks that I’m adding to my cart, which will hopefully help you with your own skincare restock — plus, many of these products are travel-sized and perfect to take along to your next sunny destination.

Bliss Glow & Hydrate Serum

I noticed a huge difference in my complexion once I started adding a hyaluronic acid serum to my skincare routine; my face was much smoother and more hydrated. A brightening serum like this one from Bliss goes a step further with the addition of niacinamide, which has excellent nourishing properties. In addition to hydrating your face, it’ll help brighten and even out your skin tone by targeting dark spots. For just $15, it’s a great find to incorporate into your morning routine.

Alba Botanica Face Sunscreen

I’m always on the lookout for mineral face sunscreen because I find it makes me less likely to break out compared to a chemical sunscreen. One like this Alba Botanica Sunscreen is ideal because it’s not only mineral-based, but it’s also fragrance-free, which means it’s less likely to irritate your skin. Plus, the sheer formula will blend in smoothly without leaving a white cast behind. I’m surprised by the low $8 price point and love the 2-ounce size so it’ll be easy to toss in a carry-on.

IT Cosmetics Bye Bye Under-eye Full Coverage Concealer

Although I no longer wear foundation (I use a tinted moisturizer with SPF, instead), I like to have concealer on hand to cover spots or dark circles under my eyes. This IT Cosmetics Bye Bye Under-eye Concealer is designed to do just that — make tired bags disappear. But it goes a step further with anti-aging properties; ingredients like ceramides and peptides hydrate skin and reduce the appearance of wrinkles. And, the waterproof formula means it should stand up to sweat for any days of exploration on your next trip. Try it now while it’s at an amazing 40 percent off.

Neutrogena Hydro Boost Hyaluronic Acid Serum

As I mentioned before, I love having a standard hyaluronic acid serum on hand for a blast of hydration in my skincare routine. This Neutrogena Hydro Boost Serum is a popular choice (even among celebrities like Jennifer Garner, who has been a Neutrogena ambassador for years) because it’s lightweight and perfect for all skin types, even those with sensitive skin thanks to the fragrance-free formula. Shoppers said that it really works at hydrating skin and leaving it soft and smooth — and its 1-ounce size makes it small enough to pack in your toiletry bag. A little goes a long way, so this $14 bottle will likely last you weeks.

Covergirl Clean Fresh Hydrating Concealer

As soon as I saw that this Covergirl concealer was $3, I immediately added it to my cart. I love Covergirl’s Clean Fresh line because of their vegan formulas (and it’s cruelty-free, like all of Covergirl’s products) that I can feel a little better about putting on my face without a high price tag. This concealer, in particular, is great because it also offers hydration with the inclusion of coconut milk and aloe, so it’ll cover spots without drying out skin.

La Roche-Posay Anthelios Clear Skin Sunscreen

I’ve wanted to get my hands on French pharmacy brand La Roche-Posay’s Anthelios SPF products for a while, but I’ve been deterred by the slightly higher prices. So, I was excited to see this face sunscreen included in the Amazon Beauty Outlet for just $15. I love the fragrance-free formula and that it’s specifically “dry touch,” so it shouldn’t leave skin greasy, even though it’s not mineral-based. It’ll be a great makeup primer because of its pore-blurring matte finish (which many Amazon shoppers said is exactly how they use it).

Bliss Block Star SPF 30 Invisible Daily Tinted Sunscreen

Yet another excellent sunscreen on sale is this Bliss Block Star tinted sunscreen, which is 32 percent off. The sheer, mineral-based formula is made to go on smoothly and dry fast, which means it’s ideal to use under makeup. Because it’s also tinted, it can easily act as a foundation that both smoothes your complexion and protects your skin from the sun. Many shoppers praised this Bliss sunscreen for how light it feels on their face, making it a good daily pick. Plus, its small 1.7-ounce tube means you can pack it in your carry-on.

Neutrogena Gentle Oil-free Eye Makeup Remover and Cleanser

No makeup haul is complete without ensuring you have makeup remover on hand, too. I love this oil-free Neutrogena eye makeup remover because its heavy duty formula is an all-star at getting waterproof mascara and eyeliner off quickly — without irritating your eyes. And, I love the non-greasy formula. This pack includes three 5.5-ounce bottles for just $18, or you could get an 8-ounce bottle on sale for $10.

IT Cosmetics Confidence in a Cream Anti-aging Face Moisturizer

All of these concealers, serums, and tinted sunscreens would mean nothing without a good face moisturizer to lock in hydration. This IT Cosmetics Anti-aging Face Moisturizer includes moisturizing powerhouses hyaluronic acid and ceramides to help skin appear smoother and feel soft to the touch. With over 1,500 perfect five-star ratings on Amazon, it’s a huge hit with Amazon shoppers, many of whom noted that it’s great for dry skin and worth every penny. 

Neutrogena Invisible Daily Defense Face Sunscreen and Hydrating Serum

Another solid option if you’re looking for a new daily face sunscreen is this Neutrogena pick, which features antioxidants to help protect skin from environmental stressors (like pollution) in addition to the sun’s UV rays. It goes on smoothly and is water-resistant up to 80 minutes, so it’s great for a hot, sweaty day or a visit to the beach. It comes in 1.7- and 3-ounce bottles, both of which you can safely pack in your bag.
