7 Dermatologist-Approved Anti-Aging Products From $11

Few things thrill me like stumbling upon new Amazon storefronts—particularly storefronts  dedicated to beauty products. Earlier this week, I discovered the retailer’s SkinCare+ page: A collection of curated, dermatologist-approved finds (some of which are even FSA/HSA-eligible). After ample time perusing derm-approved anti-aging selects, I wound up with seven formulas in my cart. Best of all, prices start at $11.

7 Dermatologist-Approved Anti-Aging Products

L’Oréal Wrinkle Expert 55+ Anti-Aging Face Moisturizer

Amazon

Don’t let its diminutive price tag fool you: This moisturizer smooths wrinkles on par with “expensive” ”department store” creams. Formulated specifically for mature skin, it’s rich, fast-absorbing, and packed with calcium—a mineral that helps thicken aging skin, per the brand. In doing so, it smooths crepey texture and fades fine lines—and quickly. A 60-year-old shopper reported their forehead wrinkles ”almost disappeared after only a week” of use.

Olay Retinol Face Moisturizer

Amazon

Dermatologist approval aside, a handful of my 40-something friends rave about this cream’s wrinkle-thwarting prowess—and have the smooth skin to show for it. The formula stars retinol, the preeminent anti-aging ingredient, according to virtually every dermatologist I’ve ever met.
Niacinamide—a form of vitamin B that brightens hyperpigmentation and whittles the appearance of large pores—is also present. Moreover, the ingredient soothes, thereby acting as a counterbalance for potential retinol-induced irritation. 

Cetaphil Healthy Renew Anti-Aging Face Serum 

Amazon

My 42-year-old fiancé looks 15 years his junior (seriously—not a single stranger has accurately guessed his age). In addition to excellent genes, he attributes his youthful complexion to Cetaphil products, including this lightweight firming serum. Packed with collagen-proliferating peptides, it addresses age-related skin laxity, yielding bouncier, tighter, smoother skin—in two weeks, per the brand. Barrier-restoring panthenol, a soothing B vitamin, makes it a win for even the most sensitive complexions. A true testament to its excellence? More than 20,000 shoppers have repurchased the serum, per Amazon.
