Think of a holy grail beauty product. Maybe something like La Mer comes to mind. Or Augustinus Bader. On the contrary, though, not all products with swarms of fans will cost you big bucks. Case in point: L’Oréal Paris Skincare Revitalift Triple Power Anti-Aging Face Moisturizer with Pro-Retinol ($15), or, as skin-care aficionados know it to be: the drugstore moisturizer with over 10,000 5-star reviews.

So, what makes this moisturizer so special, you might ask? It all comes down to the combination of three key ingredients. Let’s start with the ingredient that’s so important that it’s actually in the name of the product. Pro-retinol, also known as retinyl palmitate, is a retinol derivative that’s thought to be better tolerated by the skin, thanks to the fact that it’s the most present form of vitamin A naturally found in the skin, and it’s a more mild form of retinol overall. And, according to Amazon reviewers, this holds up.

“I have very sensitive skin and this product doesn't irritate it whatsoever,” one reviewer wrote. “[I’ve] been using this for two months and notice a huge difference in the...overall health of my skin. The smell is great too and it's very rich and creamy! I switched from an expensive moisturizer from a department store to this and have way better results. I highly recommend this product to anyone.”

In addition to pro-retinol, this top-rated moisturizer is made with hyaluronic acid, which is known to hydrate and plump the skin due to its ability to hold up to 1,000 times its weight in water, as well as vitamin C, which is renowned for its brightening and evening effects. In other words, L’Oreal Paris Revitalift Triple Power Anti-Aging Face Moisturizer with Pro-Retinol is a multi-tasker that’s well worth the on-sale $15 price tag at Amazon. And, if you think you’ll cruise right through a jar, you can even set up a delivery subscription, which will knock the price down by 50 cents. Buy the cream.
