Drug Store Dandies at DRUGSTORE.COM & More

Some of us are a little obsessed with going to stores like Duane Reade, Ulta, Rite Aid and Walgreens. For me, if shelves are neatly stocked, I'm in for a leisure stroll in the beauty aisles. I check out the end caps for limited editions, new product or trend items. See if my favorite product is in house or sold out. And peek at beauty bundles from lesser known brands.

You may prefer virtual shopping. DRUGSTORE.COM has some dandies for you:

FACE: REVLON introduced PHOTOREADY MAKEUP for a poreless, airbrushed skin in any light. Complete coverage with a soft luminous finish. Oil and fragrance free with SPF 20 to guard against the sun's harmful rays...12 shades at $13.99 each.
