Drugstore Cowgirl

Gone are those Saturday afternoons hanging around cosmetic counters searching for the perfect lipstick (maybe that’s a good thing). But we still need that lipstick—it’s just that baby Jack and little Jill don’t share the same passion for beauty products than our grade ten Best Friend Forever did. Not fair really—it’s because of our kids we go to the drugstore so much, whether it’s for diapers, sunscreen, school supplies, band-aids (the list goes on). We know there are treasures hiding in those aisles—but like that needle in the haystack, you need time to find them. So with the collective wisdom of the SavvyMom team, we’ve come up with a drugstore beauty guide that will get you in and out of there in no time with all the treasures you need.
