This new Walgreens skincare range is being launched by the retailer as one of its latest private label lines that's targeted towards offering shoppers a premium lineup of products at a competitive price point.
The product range includes cleansers, exfoliants, creams, serums and masks that dupe higher end options on the market in response to consumer demand. The products are priced at $5.99 for the serums, while the remainder of the lineup is priced from $8.99 to $22.99 to make them an easy option for consumers to decide to try and buy.
Group Vice President and General Merchandise Manager for Health and Beauty Heather Hughes spoke on the new Walgreens skincare range saying, "As we sharpen our focus in areas such as women’s health and beauty, our new premium skincare line is a game-changer for those who crave luxury but are mindful of their budget. Compared to the current price of similar premium skin care products listed on brand websites, the online prices of our new Walgreens premium skin care products are at least 50% less expensive, making high-quality skin care more accessible. It’s our way of delivering personalized solutions that don’t break the bank and we invite our customers to see for themselves.”
