Amazon Launched An Under $40 Skin Care Line With Everything From Masks To Micellar Wipes
Amazon has long been the place to get, well, everything you need — from books to DVDs to Halloween costumes to couches and more. But the one-stop, e-commerce giant is working to establish itself as a legitimate beauty hub. Belei, Amazon's first-ever dedicated skin care line, arrived on March 20. It's a small but effective collection comprised of 12 products that both target and provide solutions for universal skin concerns such as acne, dryness, dullness, and beyond.
Buzzy ingredients like hyaluronic acid and retinol are featured in the products in the Belei range, which includes moisturizers, serums, eye cream, facial wipes, a spot treatment, and a mask. You can build a full skin care regimen with Belei or you can supplement your favorite products in your routine by incorporating some Belei offerings into rotation.
Belei products start as low as $9 and go up to $40. The brand is paraben, sulfate, and fragrance-free. None of the products are tested on animals.
Product efficacy is also a top priority with Belei. "Our goal is to help customers spend less time and money searching for the right skin care solutions," said Kara Trousdale, Head of Beauty for Private Brands on Amazon.com, in a press release.
Rather than spending precious time seeking products, Amazon would prefer you spend said time using Belei offerings. "We took a simple, no-nonsense approach when creating Belei, developing products with ingredients that are both proven to deliver results and also offer customers great value for the quality," Trousdale finished.
Here's everything in Amazon's Belei line and what each item does. The mint and forest green packaging will have you taking "Top Shelfies" as soon as your first shipment arrives.
