Skin care is skin care is skin care, right? So wrong. In fact, that statement couldn’t be further from the truth. Finding the right skin-care regimen is a bit like shopping for jeans. You can try on five different pairs, all in the same size, yet there’s that one particular pair that fits your body just right. Same goes for skin care. Many items offer similar benefits and antiaging results, but each product has its own unique ingredient complex and formulation, and we all have unique skin that reacts differently to various products. So sometimes, you have to try a few different brands until you find what works best for you. That’s why I love discovery kits. They allow you to try a bunch of different products at a fantastic value before investing in the full-size versions. We work hard with the vendors to keep our discovery kits updated and fresh to reflect the latest launches and innovations. Some of my favorite kits right now are:

A218623: Perricone MD Best of Perricone 6-Piece Discovery Kit

A221569: Dr. Denese Must-Haves 4-Piece Discovery Kit

A221572: Kate Somerville Kate's Skin Solutions 4-Piece Set

A82267: Algenist Antiaging Skin Care 3-Piece Discovery Kit

A223331: Ole Henriksen Best of Ole Henriksen 7-Piece Discovery Kit

A224611: Peter Thomas Roth Breakthrough Formulas 6-Piece Kit

A224728: StriVectin Antiaging Experts 4-Piece Discovery Kit

When you do the math, you’re averaging $7–$15 per product for some of the hottest skin-care items on the market. How can you beat that? I don’t think many of us could open up our medicine cabinets and find skin-care products from just one brand. We’ll like an eye cream from this brand, a serum from another, etc. Discovery kits are the ideal and most economical way to find the perfect treatment products for YOUR skin. What new products have you fallen in love with that you found in a discovery kit?
