If you haven't yet heard the theory that your makeup is only as good as your skin-care, consider yourself briefed. Reviving dull and tired skin is no easy feat, and despite the magical powers of primers, foundations and luminizers, a truly glowing complexion typically has more to do with the health of your skin -- not your Sephora card. Formulated with a luxe foaming oxygen complex, ginseng, caffeine, probiotics, lactic acid, antioxidants, and yes, vitamins, aplenty, there's not much this drugstore face mask from Pixi By Petra doesn't do.

There's nothing more antagonizing than an unbreakable cycle of acne. After days of poking, prodding and dabbing copious amounts of zit cream, you finally manage to minimize the angry appearance of one or two bumps, only to wake up to another angry mountain range the next morning. Sound familiar? You're in luck. Specifically designed for the most stubborn of breakouts, this gel-based leave-on mask from Neutrogena is a godsend for those struggling to break an endless relationship with acne. Potently formulated with bacteria-fighting medicine, this drugstore favorite lightly absorbs into your skin to help fight current and future breakouts.

Due to its detoxification powers, charcoal has been garnering a lot of attention lately. Whether you're sipping it from your local juice shop (with lemon and lavender, please), taking it in pill-form, or applying it to your face post-SoulCycle class, it's hard to deny charcoal's buzzy and ultra-trendy draw. However, after just a few applications of this breakthrough mask from L'Oreal (which touts charcoal as its all-star ingredient), we have to admit that we are so on board. Reminiscent of products that are quite literally six times the price, this pure-clay mask manages to illuminate skin in a mere ten minutes. Plus, it's gentle and non-drying so you can apply it up to three times a week.

We get it. The thought of a chemical-based peel can be a tad bit daunting. To ease your way into the treatment, try Vichy's Double Glow Peel Mask -- an affordable drugstore option that's gentle enough for even the most sensitive of skin. After AHA fruit acids remove pesky dead skin cells, ultra-fine powder ground from volcanic rock (no joke), works to gently exfoliate your skin -- delivering the radiant results that, until now, we only associated with the A-list.

An internet favorite, this drugstore pick from Alba Botanica has been praised by professional derms and reviewers alike. While papaya and pineapple enzymes naturally slough off dead skin cells, soothing aloe works to calm your complexion. The blissful end result: A vibrant, incredibly even skin tone. Plus, if you're prone to irritation and sensitivity, listen up. The hypo-allergenic formula features 100 percent vegetarian ingredients and is pH balanced, which makes it an incredibly gentle option.
