20 Suprising Beauty Finds At Target

I love romantic walks...down the beauty aisle.

No surprise there, right? Well, recently when on a Target trip (let's be honest, I'm there pretty much weekly) I was in the beauty aisle and noticed they have really stepped up their beauty game. Look at all of these goodies below:



Besides the usual brands we all know and love (L'Oreal, Revlon, Covergirl, Maybelline, etc) I found lots of beauty brands (and some that are Target exclusives) that have turned into new loves for me. I've narrowed it down to 20 (trust me, I could have easily doubled this list) of surprising beauty finds at Target.

Row 1:

  • I'm a huge fan of Kbeauty (Korean beauty) and am thrilled that Target is carrying more of their brands, like MISSHA. Their MISSHA Time Revolution The First Treatment Essence Mask has been a go-to for hydration and fine lines. It's unscented, too!
  • Nuxe-Huile Prodigieuse® Multi-Purpose Dry Oil is one of those "treat yourself" luxury items. I got NUXE in a Birchbox once, and have been hooked on the brand ever since. Rub this oil on after showering for hydrated skin and to enjoy the indulgence. It's good, y'all.
  • Sonia Kashuk is a Target-exclusive brand that is well-loved here on the blog. I even got to interview her once! I had a cold and sounded like a man, but anyway, if you've never tried out her brand, I love the makeup and the body care items the best. This stick highlighter and creamy bronzer have contouring and highlighting easily sorted.
  • PLANT is a new-to-me brand that is pricey (think $20+) but is full of only good-for-you ingredients. Their SUPER SOAKmade with lemongrass and eucalyptus, was my go-to when I had a bad cold recently. I also like their ZAP ZIT mask.
Row 2:
  • Andre Walker, hairstylist for Oprah, has finally come out with his own line of products. My friends with natural hair swear by his Q Oil, but I love it on mine, too. Add a little for hydration and shine. You can use it on your body, too!
  • Skinfix is another must-have brand, with their hand cream taking top spot on my nightstand. Love everything I've tried from them!
  • You Are Amazing--Yes, you are, and so is this new bath line. I have hundreds of DIY recipes on here, but I know some of you won't make anything unless the step is "open product." This line is for you, then! The Exfoliating Body Scrub & Wash isn't too harsh on skin. I use it before shaving.
  • RAW Sugar is another good-for-you brand, and I've been loving their body wash, like this one in vanilla bean. I'm on a vanilla kick lately.
  • I didn't leave the guys out! MARLOWE is a bath and body line designed for men, but I'm a fan of their stuff, like this Men's Body Scrub Soap--perfect for travel, when you want to get the grit and grime off! Bonus: For every Marlowe. item purchased, soap is distributed to people at risk for hygiene-related illnesses in partnership with Clean the World®.
Row 3:
  • If you haven't tried Boots No 7 products, what are you waiting for? So glad this Uk brand is here in the States! Walgreens has started carrying them too. I'm all about this anti-aging serum.
  • EDEN Body Works is full of natural products, like their peppermint tea tree shampoo. Great for itchy scalps or for too much product buildup.
  • I've talked about Pixi Beauty tons on the blog, like their peach corrector is a fave of mine for dark circles. But a standout product is the Glow Tonic. A must for glowing skin.
  • Ok, ok one last sugar scrub product. But it's a good one! I am obsessed with all things from the Mayfair Soap Foundry line, like this Grapefruit Bergamot scent. The scrub is awesome and the body soufflĂ© is divine.
Row 4:
  • W3ll People (yes, that's the spelling) has this Invisible Setting Powder I've been loving. It's an all natural mineral powder that soothes irritated skin.
  • SheaMoisture isn't a new brand, but I love that I can find it easily at Target, usually on an endcap. The Curl Enhancing Smoothie is for thick, curly hair and helps reduce frizz. I like to use it as a deep conditioner!
  • More hair stuff! Carol's Daughter Mimosa Hair Honey is a hair pomade for dry, brittle hair. It adds shine and texture. I use it when I'm doing beachy waves in my hair.
  • Soapbox Argan Oil Shampoo  not only helps frizzy hair but for every bottle sold, a month’s supply of clean water is given to a community in need! #SoapEqualsHope
  • Laneige is another KBeauty brand I've talked about several times on here. I love their Cushion Compact and their Water Sleeping Mask. I love the packaging too.
Not sponsored. I bought all of these!

Which of these would you try?

  • I had a whirlwind trip back to my hometown to see my niece turn 1! She went crazy on the cake and had the best time smashing it, opening presents, and playing with the wrapping paper. The weekend went by too fast!

  9. Sometimes I wish all US brands were freely available in the UK and vice versa. There are a few on your list I'd love to try, but I don't think I'll find them here, at least not yet. Thank you for the round-up, Elle. x

  11. Sounds like a fun weekend with your family! I love the line that a lot of us won't make a bath product unless it is step one, open the product. That is me and so true! With that said, I will be checking out the Plant line!

  12. I love that Target has introduced so many new brands! I think some stores are carrying S.W. Basics. They have a couple products that I love! I want to try that K.Beauty mask!

  13. One of my favorite things about going to Target is strolling down the beauty aisle. I haven't tried any of these products, but I'll have to pick up a few next time I'm there!

  14. Ohhh, I love this! Target is my favorite, and I can probably actually afford some of these! I'm especially intrigued by the Invisible Setting Powder and the Q Oil!

  25. Such great products! I'll have to try that EDEN Body Works shampoo. I'm happy there isn't a Target super close to me or i would be in big trouble but I do love a good Target haul everyone few months.

  26. Me and the hubby might have to share some of the Men's Body Scrub Soap. I usually find the men's scrubs tend to be better at removing dead skin. I like my scrubs a little more exfoliating. ;)

  33. I've been super intrigued by the Carol's daughter line. I've noticed them at Target and Walgreens, but haven't really heard anything about them. What do you think? Have you tried a lot of their products? Worth it?

    ReplyDelete
  34. Oh my goodness, I did not know that half of these were at Target! I need to go on a new trip soon!

  38. Sigh. I honestly feel like I'm living in the hinterlands. Singapore could really use a Target or Target like store... Or even a Walgreens/Duane Reade. :(

    ReplyDelete
  39. Oh my goodness there are so many great things on this list! I didn't know Target was carrying MISSHA! I need to check that out!

  43. I used to love Target when I studied in the US, and I must confess that most of the brands I didn't know (that you mentioned), but I am pleased that you found such nice products and above all, the brand that I know and love, Nuxe! Wow, that was such a nice surprise!

  44. I love browsing the beauty aisles at Target as well! So many great picks here!

  45. The Target near me wasn't too good yesterday when I went. I think they are changing around the beauty isle because they was very minimal products. I still want to try the Laneige Water Sleeping Mask!

    ReplyDelete
  46. I always just pass by all of these goodies! Nice to know that you approve! The sleeping mask sounds intriguing!

  50. Ahh, this is after my own heart--you know how much I love Target. Most of these I haven't heard of, so thanks for giving me some new things to check out! I want to try the Skinfix hand lotion and the Raw Sugar vanilla bodywash... I love vanilla!

    ReplyDelete
  51. hahahaha i laughed so hard at I love romantic walks...down the beauty aisle. i spend waaaaayyy too much money when i let myself go into those aisles.

    your niece was adorable on snapchat with her cake! too cute.

    ReplyDelete
  52. Target gets me all the time, especially in their beauty products. I love the Sonia Kashuk line. Gotta try some of these. That is a loooot of goodies.

    ReplyDelete
  53. I didn't know that Target started carrying Kbeauty! I say that like I live in the U.S. lol But I will be traveling state side soon and now am so excited to visit the beauty aisles!

    ReplyDelete
  54. Damn girl you've been busy since I last visited! lol or I'm really behind on return blog comments. Either way... I love Pixi's Glow Tonic. I tried a sample of that SkinFix lotion, while I like it, it's like $20. Even L'Occitane isn't that much so not worth it to me.

    I can get lost in the aisles of Target :)
