I’m welcoming 2025 with a major regimen refresh; it’s the perfect time to overhaul my beauty collection with fan-favorite formulas I’ll rely on for seasons to come. The best place to start? Amazon’s convenient curation of customer-adored skin care, hair care, and makeup gems. I sifted through the treasure trove of highly coveted picks to select the top 10 items I’m taking to checkout, and the best part? They’re all less than $20.

If you act quickly, you can get your hands on wildly popular products for up to 76 percent off. (Score!) Below, snag a retinol night cream, viral lip treatment, wrinkle-blurring face primer, and hair growth conditioner for as little as $5. You’ll find top picks from brands you know and love including Laneige, Cosrx, Neutrogena, L’Oréal, and more. Just be sure to grab these finds ASAP—they’re hot for a reason and run the risk of selling out quickly.

Not only are my skin care picks loved by thousands of Amazon shoppers, but they’re also on major sale. This luxe cream from viral K-beauty brand Cosrx is a whopping 76 percent off and these handy Medicube toner pads are impressively discounted, too. Personally, I’m running to snag a restock of my go-to Neutrogena Hydro Boost Water Gel while it’s $19. Formulated with hyaluronic acid, the cream deeply moisturizes my dry, sensitive complexion while maintaining a lightweight, barely there feel.
