Mild, summer mornings are now behind us, and our skin is not too happy about it. With cooler weather, we say goodbye to dewy, fresh faces and prepare for those days with dry skin that lay ahead.
After spending all of five minutes wallowing in self-pity, we discovered some pretty amazing new products under $20 that will get our skin back to a brighter and healthier state. From a complexion-clearing scrub to a hydrating under-eye cream, here are five wallet-friendly beauty buys that make good on their promises:
Shampoo
We couldn't help but let out a shout of joy when these products landed in our office. Jamaican black castor oil has been our go-to for stimulating hair growth, and with the addition of apple cider vinegar, we can expect super clean hair from this goodie. SheaMoisture Jamaican Black Castor Oil Strengthen, Grow & Restore Shampoo. $10.99, Sheamoisture.com
Body Wash
I've got great news for my colleagues (ahem, HuffPost Style Fashion Editor Michelle Persad) who hate spending lots of time applying lotion. This new and improved drugstore body wash has an even richer lather that leaves skin super soft and moisturized. Dove Deep Moisture Body Wash With NutriumMoisture, $5.49, Target.com.
Facial Scrub
Just about everyone is familiar with St. Ives' apricot scrub. However, this green tea-infused version boasts an intoxicating scent and tackles acne just as effectively. St. Ives. Blackhead Clearing Green Tea Scrub. $4.29, Walgreens.com.

Eye Cream
We've been on an endless search for the best eye cream. So far, we've seen significant improvement in the texture of our skin since dabbing this onto our under-eye area before bed. Thank you, blueberries! Yes To Blueberries Eye Firming Treatment, $15.99, Ulta.com.
Nail Care
The kale craze has made its way to nail polish, and this antioxidant-rich formula helps to strengthen brittle nails. Nails Inc. NailKale Superfood Base Coat. $15, Sephora.com.
