You simply cannot find a better drug from the pharmacy for beauty and teeth whitening at home! Crush a couple of activated charcoal tablets and brush your teeth with this black powder. You will see how your smile will shine after the first use of activated carbon.
2 Hydrogen peroxide
Are you out of deodorant? Wipe your armpits with a swab soaked in hydrogen peroxide - this, of course, will not reduce sweating, but there will definitely be no smell of sweat. Can be combined with the use of deodorant when you need to extend freshness throughout the day. Only hydrogen peroxide is applied first, and deodorant is then applied to the dried skin of the armpits.
Hydrogen peroxide can also be used as a remedy for acne on the face; each of us has it in the pharmacy. Peroxide is suitable for any skin, especially oily skin, because... reduces sebum secretion.
3 Retinoic ointment
It can lay claim to the title of drugstore beauty staple because it contains vitamin A, the most effective anti-aging skin ingredient. When choosing inexpensive products at the pharmacy, give preference to this one. Retinol in the ointment rejuvenates and soothes the skin, relieving irritation and redness on it. The beauty pharmacy positions it against acne and to combat acne, but in fact it is also an excellent prevention of aging and improves skin condition.
Advice: Apply renin ointment in the form of a mask in a thick layer on your face and leave for 20-30 minutes, maybe longer, and then rinse with warm water. In just half an hour you will see what a rejuvenating effect it has!
4 Vitamin E
You will find it in the pharmacy under the name “Tocopherol”, and vitamin E looks like small red capsules in a transparent shell. Pierce the capsule with a needle and rub all the contents into the nail plate. There is no better drug from the pharmacy for the beauty and strengthening of nails than vitamin E! And, by the way, it is great for nail growth.
5 Aevit
Speaking about beauty products from the pharmacy, one of the honorable places should be given to the duet of two important vitamins “A and E”, which together form capsules with the “Aevit” solution. This is a great beauty drugstore anti-wrinkle treatment, and the best part is that it can even be used under the eyes.
Advice: crush the capsule and apply the composition to cleansed facial skin, let it absorb. Use as a course - morning and evening, for 2 weeks, then take a break.
6 Licorice root syrup
Everyone knows it not as a drug from a pharmacy for beauty, but as a herbal cough medicine. But in fact, tincture from licorice root removes age spots. When choosing inexpensive anti-pigmentation products at the pharmacy, opt for this product. You can even simply apply licorice root syrup to problem areas of the skin with excess pigmentation - it will even out the tone and help whiten the skin.
7 Cream “Clirvin”
The pharmacy offers many expensive creams for the beauty of the body, but it is Clearwin cream that truly effectively removes stretch marks. In order to make sure of this, you need to apply the cream twice a day to problem areas of the skin (buttocks, abdomen, thighs), and after about two weeks you will be able to see the first result - smooth skin without the hated white stretch marks. Clearvin cream is also an inexpensive product that can be found in the pharmacy around the corner.
8 Zinc ointment
The best remedy for acne on the face, which is available in any pharmacy, is zinc ointment. But it can dry out the skin, so after using it you need a moisturizer. Like the acne remedy that you find at the pharmacy, you need to apply the ointment precisely to the pimple, let it absorb and go to bed with a clear conscience. In the morning, not a trace of the pimple will remain, and you just need to wash your face thoroughly and moisturize your skin.
9 Burdock oil
The main remedy for hair loss in the pharmacy, which has proven itself with our grandmothers, is oil from the common burdock root, or popularly burdock. Turn your attention to inexpensive products at the pharmacy, and you will easily find it everywhere. Burdock oil strengthens strands and makes curls silky along their entire length.
Advice: Heat the oil in a water bath to a comfortable temperature, apply to the hair roots as a mask and wrap with a towel. It's better on a weekend when you don't have to rush to work. Repeat 1-2 times a week for a month, depending on the result.
10 Ascorbic acid
I’ve never tried inexpensive beauty products from a pharmacy before, but in vain! “Ascorbinka” perfectly refreshes the skin and can be used as a remedy for acne on the face, which is sold in pharmacies. To make a face mask, you will need Vitamin C, both in ampoules and in powder. A mask based on ascorbic acid will tighten pores, remove oily skin and become your No. 1 acne remedy in the pharmacy.
11 Badyaga
When you are looking for inexpensive anti-wrinkle products at the pharmacy, you can’t ignore the badyagu. This is a freshwater sponge in powder form for exfoliation that will help renew skin cells. As a remedy for acne, bought at a pharmacy, badyaga acts quite strongly, so it is better to carry out the procedure on a day off, when there is no need to rush anywhere.
Advice: dilute badyagi powder with peroxide, apply to a clean and damp face. After 5-7 minutes, you need to rinse with water, as burning and redness of the skin may occur. But after a few hours it will pass, and your face will become refreshed and rejuvenated!
12 Epsom salt
Also known under other names - magnesium sulfate or magnesia. As a drugstore beauty product, salt will be useful for anyone who has problem skin on the body, acne on the back, or simply wants to relax and cleanse the skin by taking a bath. The package usually contains 100 g of salt. But magnesium is considered not only as a remedy for acne in the pharmacy, it helps to lose weight, even in 1 day! To do this, you will need to take a bath in which 1 kg of magnesia was diluted. The bath will remove excess fluid from the body, help the kidneys cope with the load and relieve swelling. The only limitation is that you need to use Epsom salt no more than once a month, since it is quite a strong remedy.

Ecology of life. Beauty: In everyday self-care, not only berries and vegetables grown in the country, or sour cream purchased for potato pancakes, but also pharmacy products can be useful. The price for it is often cheap. Well, it’s certainly cheaper than cosmetics - even mass market ones. But is it true that calendula tincture helps get rid of acne, and glycerin and Vaseline will turn tired feet into perfectly smooth ones?
In everyday self-care, not only berries and vegetables grown in the country, or sour cream purchased for potato pancakes, but also pharmacy products can be useful. The price for it is often cheap. Well, it’s certainly cheaper than cosmetics - even mass market ones.
But is it true that calendula tincture helps get rid of acne, and glycerin and Vaseline will turn tired feet into perfectly smooth ones? Let's find out from a professional!
We talked about options for budget-friendly and effective self-care with cosmetologist Natalya Gapeeva.
Pharmacy products - a replacement for everything?
Pharmacy products cannot replace complete skin care for the face and body, since products from the pharmacy are aimed only at eliminating skin problems such as dryness and allergic reactions. Various thoughtless experiments with them can lead to undesirable consequences: irritation, burns, clogged pores, and as a result, pustular rashes. Of course, there are age restrictions when using any drug, which is important to consider when selecting funds.
Products that are used daily in facial skin care at a certain age and do not cause unpleasant sensations - dryness, tightness, irritation - can be used regularly. Only depending on age you need to add separate eyelid skin care and lifting procedures. In any case, you should consult a specialist.
Ichthyol ointment and calendula for acne
Ichthyol ointment and calendula can be used, but very carefully, as they can leave burns on the inflamed area, which will lead to pigmentation. Ichthyol ointment is applied to the problem area for 3-5 minutes. You can repeat the procedure several times during the day. Calendula tincture is also used locally. And calendula ointment can be left on for a long time.
Glycerin and Vaseline for soft feet
Can be used without restrictions. Indeed, the skin of the feet will become soft and tender. After all, these ingredients are contained in foot skin care creams. Also, if there are cracks, you can use calendula ointment, panthenol, bepanthen, solcoseryl ointment, Reparef-1, Reparef-2 ointment, rub in AEvit oil. And don’t forget about the foot scrub before the procedure, as it helps remove dead skin particles, and the effect of the treatments will be greater.
AEvit for face and hair
AEvit can be used externally for dry skin, but you should not overuse it. It is better to take the drug in a course: one month every six months. Your skin will thank you!
As for the hair ends, AEvit is an oil-based vitamin that can be added to a hair mask and left for 15-20 minutes. Apply 5 cm from the roots, then rinse with plenty of water. After this procedure, your hair will look well-groomed, just like after going to the salon.
You need to use it once a week for dry and brittle hair, once a month for normal hair. If you want to pamper your curls with vitamins that do not require rinsing, then it is better to use B vitamins (ampoules). And you should always remember that thoughtless use of products leads to hair loss and fragility.
For dry lips - Vaseline with sugar and salt
For dry lips, you can use cosmetic Vaseline with mink oil, but as for sugar and salt - under no circumstances! This will lead to injury to the delicate skin of the lips, cracks, dryness, and peeling will appear. The skin of the lips really loves products based on hyaluronic acid - serums, masks and creams. Lips will look well-groomed and voluminous, as “hyaluronic acid” attracts water.
Nicotinic acid for hair growth
Nicotinic acid can be used for rubbing into the scalp, because it is vitamin B3, PP, nicotinamide, niacinamide. It is necessary to use “nicotine” only for clean and washed hair. Open the ampoule, pour the contents into a container using a syringe, and rub the acid into the scalp.
Full ampoules cannot be stored when opened, because the components of the “nicotine” are quickly destroyed in air. Contraindications to this drug: individual intolerance. Before using it, you need to do a test: rub it into the temporal area and wait 10-15 minutes. If there is no burning or redness, then nicotine can be used. Vitamin biotin also has a good effect on hair and skin.
Sea salt and water for scalp
Salt can cause irritation and stinging. Therefore, you should not use it, as it will lead to dryness not only of your hair, but also of your scalp. There are special scrubs that exfoliate dead skin particles, increase microcirculation, which helps improve blood supply to the hair follicles. After this procedure, hair products will provide more benefits than usual. Scrubbing can be done 1-2 times a month.
Chamomile tincture ice for face
Of course, ice is good for the skin. It improves the elasticity and tone of blood vessels (prevention of rosacea, erythrosis), blood microcirculation. Decoctions of chamomile, calendula, cornflower, blackcurrant leaves, peppermint, echinacea are used for problematic, oily and normal skin. Aloe juice and arnica decoction will help get rid of dark circles, bruises, and bags under the eyes. Cucumber juice has a beneficial effect on skin with pigmentation.
Procedures with wiping the face with ice are especially good if done in the morning. Your face will look fresh and rested!
For irritation after shaving: 2 dissolved aspirin tablets and 1 spoon of glycerin
Under no circumstances should you use this “life hack”! Aspirin is an acid that will lead to irritation, redness, and ultimately flaking and dryness. Glycerin may moisturize, but will not relieve sensitivity or soothe the skin. After all, during shaving, the skin gets injured. Therefore, you need to use products that soothe and relieve irritation. Panthenol 3%, face and body milk, and gel-based products containing green tea are suitable. The lighter the product (i.e. not oil-based), the softer the skin will be.
Fish oil for vitaminizing facial skin
Fish oil is a storehouse of beneficial properties and vitamins. Can be used for both face and body. For the face, we apply fish oil as a mask for 15-20 minutes, rinse with warm, then cold water. Be careful with the skin around your eyes!Here fish oil should be applied only in a thin layer, otherwise swelling may occur.
It is better to do this procedure in the evening 2 hours before bedtime, because fish oil has an unpleasant odor - and going to work after such a mask will not be very pleasant. At the end of the procedure, you should not apply cream, as it will weigh down the skin. We use a fish oil mask once a week.
Chlorhexidine for disinfection and dullness of facial skin
Chlorhexidine is an antiseptic and is not suitable for frequent use on sensitive skin. It is good to use if you have oily skin, complicated acne or oily seborrhea. During the rash, wipe the skin of the face in the morning and evening. However, it is worth remembering the possible intolerance to chlorhexidine.
Mouthwash for removing bruises
This is a new product for me, I can’t say that it will help with hematomas. The best remedy is troxevasin, heparin, arnica ointment, and bodyaga. These drugs improve microcirculation, so the hematoma goes away faster.

Advice from a cosmetologist:
All girls know: proper daily care will give noticeable results. Every day your skin needs:
1. Cleansing (gel, foam, cream mousse),
2. Toning (lotion, tonic),
3. Intensive care (use of serums),
4. Protection (cream according to skin type, and in summer we use SPF),
5. Using a facial scrub (1-2 times a week).
6. Masks according to skin type (2 times a week for dry skin, 1 time a week for oily skin, for problem and combination skin - 1-2 times a week).
Add here the “pharmacy life hacks” that we talked about above, and you will meet this fall healthy and beautiful! published
There is another way to always stay beautiful without spending a lot of money on it. When you go to the pharmacy for drops for a runny nose, pay attention to the simple pharmacy assortment - often great opportunities are hidden behind modest packaging.
Take note, just before use, just in case, consult your doctor to see if you have any individual contraindications.
1.Hydrogen peroxide
A well-known disinfectant and deodorizing agent, it is absolutely harmless and can be found in every home. We clean her ears and apply it to cuts to stop the bleeding, but it turns out it can be good for our appearance too.
If you remove blackheads at home, be sure to thoroughly moisten your skin with hydrogen peroxide before doing so. It loosens the stratum corneum well, and they will come to the surface very easily when pressed along with the entire rod.
After removing this uncleanness from the skin, wipe these places again - this way you will close and disinfect the pores, and the next day there will be no marks on your face.
Have you suddenly run out of deodorant? – wipe your armpits with hydrogen peroxide, this will certainly not reduce sweating, but there will definitely be no smell for a long time. By the way, if you want to extend the effect of your deodorant for a couple of hours, for example, if you have a long trip ahead, and to be sure to stay fresh, this advice will also help. Just apply deodorant to dry skin.
And if you don’t have any cosmetics on hand, peroxide will help you out. Hydrogen peroxide can replace lotion and tonic, because... perfectly cleanses, tightens and whitens pores. Suitable for any skin, and for oily skin it is simply ideal, because... reduces sebum secretion, and can be used daily.
2. Badyaga
Of all the masks with the addition of hydrogen peroxide, the mask with badyaga is the most famous.
A freshwater sponge called badyaga is sold in powder form in almost every pharmacy. Many people believe that peeling using badyagi is not much inferior in effect to salon procedures. In principle, this is true, but there is one drawback - badyaga, with prolonged use, causes hair growth. If you already have facial hair, then masks with badyaga are not suitable for you.
Agree, the drawback is insignificant. And if you have no contraindications, then badyaga can magically change your skin. The top layer of dead cells, after several masks, is almost completely removed. And in this layer there are different acne, comedones, and pimples. It is better to make such masks if you know that you will not go anywhere for the next 12 hours, as your face will be red like an Indian.
In short, just dilute the powder with peroxide, and after a minute apply it to damp skin. To make the redness go away faster, you can then apply zinc ointment. After this, the skin may peel off for 3–4 days, and as soon as everything is restored, you can make such a peeling mask again. A course of masks is always better than one, the only one. But here you yourself, based on the condition of your skin, decide how many you need to do.
3. Calendula tincture
Calendula tincture is absolutely necessary in every medicine cabinet. It has been proven to be more effective than iodine preparations for treating wounds and cuts, as calendula has the unique ability to accelerate tissue regeneration, reduce inflammation and promote wound healing.
If this remedy helps cure boils and ulcers, then it will definitely get rid of acne. In general, I think calendula tincture is the best lotion. If alcohol scares you, then dilute it with water in a ratio of 1 to 1.
Also, calendula tincture dries out the scalp, and if you rub it in periodically, your hair will become noticeably less dirty. To strengthen your hair, you can add castor oil to the calendula tincture. You need to rub it in for a month, and it helps a lot with seborrhea.
4. Levomekol
The domestic ointment “Levomekol” has a fairly strong anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial effect, and is active against various microorganisms (staphylococci, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Escherichia coli).
If you are injured, burned, have a boil, you picked your face yourself, or you feel that a pimple is starting to break out, this ointment can help you. Apply a thick layer to the sore spot until it goes away. And it passes after it quite quickly.
5. Salicylic alcohol and salicylic ointment
A component of almost all anti-acne and anti-seborrheic medications, salicylic acid dissolved in alcohol is sold in every pharmacy. If you have acne, blackheads, back acne, very oily skin, or problems with keratolization, this is the product for you.
I recently read that a study was conducted in America on the most effective remedy against acne and pimples. The Americans have come to the conclusion that salicylic acid is so far the best known, and consider it almost a panacea for all skin problems.
One of my friends fights blackheads very effectively by using salicylic ointment every evening after wiping with hydrogen peroxide. Salicylic ointment is gentler than alcohol and exfoliates dead skin cells well.
I warn you - salicylic alcohol is very drying to the skin, so apply it point by point. By the way, salicyl dissolves only in alcohol, so it is not clear where it comes from in alcohol-free lotions. Salicylic acid also prevents the appearance of calluses and roughening of the skin, so after a pedicure, apply it to your heels and other problem areas.
6. Zinc ointment
Zinc ointment is an anti-inflammatory agent that has a drying, adsorbent, astringent and antiseptic effect. After cleansing your face, for acne and any inflammation, apply zinc ointment to the skin.
Again, if a pimple starts, smear this area at night and in the morning, most likely, there will be no trace of it. It’s not for nothing that zinc is included in widely advertised products for problem skin. Only they are expensive, and the ointment costs pennies.
Next, to prevent irritation after depilation in the bikini area, apply zinc ointment for several hours. Usually one application is enough to forget about this trouble until the next procedure.
Have you had a pedicure – at home or in a salon, and want to keep the effect longer? Just periodically apply zinc ointment to your feet and heels. Verified.
7. Apilak (available in the form of ointments, suppositories, supplements)
“Apilak” is a trade name of a drug based on royal jelly, patented by a Tallinn pharmaceutical plant. It has been produced since Soviet times and this remedy has helped more than one generation of people. “Apilak” is a general tonic, an adaptogen, a biogenic stimulator of metabolic processes, and also a source of amino acids, a bunch of vitamins and macroelements.
The range of diseases for which it is prescribed is huge. Apilak is often prescribed to children with a lack of appetite, to people during the recovery period after operations and stress, as an additional remedy in the treatment of infertility. The ointment in combination with dietary supplement is included in the treatment of seborrhea and neurodermatitis, and after just a month of use it reduces skin oiliness, reduces the number of inflammatory elements, and reduces itching.
For oily, problematic facial skin, it is useful to apply Apilak to the skin in a thick layer at least once a week. If you have chronic fatigue syndrome, heavy physical or mental stress, or just want to cheer up, taking Apilak is one of the safest ways to do it. Sold in every pharmacy, it is cheap.
8. St. John's wort oil, chamomile, nettle, burdock oil, castor oil.
All these oils are far from in short supply, are affordable and very well nourish and restore hair. I advise you to buy everything and make hot wraps with them one by one. Usually the oil is packaged in small glass bottles, I just put them in a glass of boiling water, and after a minute I apply the already heated oil to my hair. Do this twice a week.
9. Epsom salt (otherwise known as magnesium sulfate or magnesia)
The drug is known to all hypertensive patients and people with liver diseases. As far as I know, in ambulances they use magnesium in ampoules to quickly lower blood pressure. But for our goals - to achieve well-grooming and health - we will need magnesium powder. It is packaged in 100 gram bags and costs somewhere around 10 – 12 rubles.
If you urgently need to lose weight, literally in 1 day, then a bath with the addition of 1 kg of magnesium will help you. The effect is based on the removal of excess water from the body. The bath is also useful for people suffering from edema; it helps the kidneys cope well with the load.
For patients with psoriasis, such a bath will also make life much easier, as it cleanses the skin well. A bath with Epsom salts will also be useful for people with problem skin on the body, acne on the back and chest, and simply wanting to cleanse the body. Just don’t overuse it, a bath with magnesium can only be used once a month, it’s a very strong remedy.
10. Cosmetic clay
Everyone seems to know about clay (white, green, blue, etc.). And I also think that clay masks, baths and wraps really work. Be sure to buy a couple of packages if you haven’t tried it yet. White clay is better for dry skin and hair, green clay is better for problem skin and oily hair, blue clay, in principle, is suitable for everyone.
Of course, simple cosmetic clay is not as effective as, for example, Moroccan clay, or the one sold in Indian stores. But the price is different.
11. Pasta “Sulsena”
Known to our parents, the hair care product Sulsena paste is an emulsion based on selenium disulfide. This disulfide is a sebum regulator and has an anti-dandruff effect.
Sulsena paste will help you if you have dandruff, dull split ends, and also if your hair quickly becomes oily, splits or falls out. The sulfur contained in the paste strengthens and thickens the hair from the inside, so that after use it appears thicker.
Great if you want to increase the time between shampoos. I can personally confirm that my hair stays fresh longer and has an amazing shine.
12. Romazulan
"Romazulan" is an antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory drug consisting of chamomile extract and chamomile essential oil (live azulene). Anyone who, like me, is a fan of the chamomile scent, I think, will be delighted with this drug.
The beauty of “Romazulan” is that it can be added everywhere: in baths, in shampoo, in homemade soap, in shower gel, masks. It can be used as a lotion for oily, problem skin, and in general for any skin inflammation, gum disease, and even as a deodorant.
Just imagine that when literally one gram of azulene is added to cosmetics, it already has a healing effect, but there is so much of it in 100 ml. packaging. I believe that every woman who cares about her beauty should have Romazulan.
13. Cubes with herbs.
Chamomile succession oil jojoba olive oil! And everything goes into the freezer! And in the morning, wipe your face with the cube! It becomes fresh, rosy and soft! And in general, during the day, if your face is tired, just wipe it off, and the tiredness on your face will disappear!
14. Aevit
Super anti-wrinkle remedies. Apply to the skin around the eyes. Capsules cost 34 rubles. This is vitamin A and E together, applied morning and evening under the eyes. Or you can smear it only once a day, leave it on for 2 hours, then it is absorbed, or blot it with a napkin. If you’re at home, you can walk like this all day! Good effect. Use for 2 weeks, then break.
15. Blepharogel No. 1 (price about 150 rubles)
There's hyaluronic acid there. For bags under the eyes. Apply a thick layer 3 times a day and be sure to apply it lightly at night; after a few days the swelling should go down and wrinkles should disappear. You can also try castor oil. Apply in the morning for 2 hours after the gel (lifting effect). You can go even further and purchase pure hyaluronic acid in ampoules (on the website or in a company that sells cosmetologists) and pour the ampoule into a bottle with blepharogel. Shake well and apply each time before applying.
16. Calcium chloride solution
Peeling - Hollywood cleansing: Apply a solution of calcium chloride (35 rubles) to a clean, dry face, wait until it dries, then apply a second layer, and again wait for it to dry. Lather your hands with baby soap and massage the skin, rolling the coils. The mechanism here is as follows: calcium chloride interacts with soap (sodium and potassium salts of higher carboxylic acids), potassium or sodium chloride and an insoluble calcium salt of higher carboxylic acids are formed, which rolls off, simultaneously capturing part of the upper layer of keratin scales. The result is a superficial gentle peeling.
The use of calcium chloride to cleanse the skin is possible in the absence of inflammatory elements. Very effective. Verified!!!
17. For 24 rubles Heparin ointment (for swelling... if you have terrible bags under the eyes in the morning)
18. Retinoic ointment
A storehouse of vitamin A. The ointment is positioned as anti-acne, but is also an excellent prevention of aging, improves skin condition, and removes redness.
I make a mask out of it, for 20-30 minutes, longer if possible. Some leave it overnight. I heard that in the USA cosmetologists prescribe its analogue (retisol) as the only proven remedy for combating wrinkles.
