Product Pick: L’Oreal Skin Genesis Serum Concentrate
Saturday, November 15th, 2008 | Product Picks, Sales, Skincare
If you want high quality skincare that contains the latest advanced ingredients at an affordable price, you may tire yourself out looking for such a thing. Fortunately, I found L’Oreal’s Skin Genesis line of products, the Skin Genesis Serum Concentrate in particular. I discovered that this particular drugstore skincare product can compete with skincare products that cost many times more.
Not to name names, but… after trying an expensive hyaluronic acid product by Cellex-C (ie. Cellex-C Hydra 5B Complex) that costs $73 for a 30 ml bottle, I felt that I got similar skin benefits after using L’Oreal’s Skin Genesis Serum Concentrate, which also contains hyaluronic acid.
Out of all the Skin Genesis products, the Serum Concentrate is the best! Comparing the ingredient lists of all the Skin Genesis products, I always find myself much more attracted to the ingredients in the Serum Concentrate product than in any other. It is my daily go-to product, and I like it enough to bother stuffing it into a jam-packed 1 quart plastic bag and taking it with me on the plane when I travel. The twist-lock pump packaging is an extra bonus, as it really helps keep the product sanitary and makes it really easy to use.
L’Oreal Skin Genesis Serum Concentrate is truly one of my all-time favorite products, and it usually retails for about $19.99 in drugstores. Keep reading to find out how you can consistently get this product for much less.
Meilily Shopping Strategy
Since I consistently repurchase L’Oreal Skin Genesis Serum Concentrate, I can usually get good deals on this product when I wait to buy it when it is on sale and use a coupon at the same time. On average, I’ve purchased this product for about $12-13, saving almost $8 each time.
For example, L’Oreal Skin Genesis was recently on sale for 25% off at Walgreens, reducing the store price of the Serum Concentrate from $19.99 to $14.99. Since I had a manufacturer’s coupon for $2 off Skin Genesis from my last purchase of the serum, my item cost came out to $12.99. [On top of that, I also had a coupon for $5 off of a $20 Walgreens purchase (sent to me from the walgreens.com photo department), which saved me even more!]
Tip: When you buy a bottle of Skin Genesis Serum Concentrate, you can usually find a coupon for $2 off of Skin Genesis products inside. Also, you can often find L’Oreal coupons in the mail, in drugstore flyers, in the newspaper coupon section, or online, in addition to the regular in-store sales on L’Oreal products.
Every little bit you save can add up, so don’t be afraid to use coupons! They’re what I like to call “free money” for products I know I’m going to buy!
