TotalBeauty.com editor's pick

Why it's great: This is such a great everyday cleanser. It smells terrific, creates a nice lather and gets your face really clean (including removing stubborn makeup). Your skin feels soft and smooth without feeling stripped and dry. A blend of charcoal and clay ensures pores stay clean and skin feels less oily with repeated use.

Best Drugstore Acne Product No. 1: Peach Slices Acne Spot Dots, $4.49
TotalBeauty.com editor's pick

Why it's great: One editor says these pimple patches changed the way she treats her occasional acne. Simply apply a sticker over the breakout at bedtime and remove when you wake. The hydrocolloid patch will be soaked with oil (from the blemish) and the spot will be much smaller, less red and less painful. They basically stop a new breakout in its tracks and are great at deflating huge cystic blemishes quickly.
