Dermstore is a multi-brand beauty retailer. Its homepage title lists skin care, sunscreen, hair and beauty products, and the navigation adds makeup, tools and devices, fragrance, body care and a wellness section. Because it carries many outside brands, prices vary widely. This guide uses a handful of products shown on the homepage to give a sense of the range. All prices are as listed at the time of writing and can change.

Example products and prices

The homepage featured these items:

Those figures show how the store spans a sunscreen duo at the lower end through to a device near $300.

How the store is organized

Categories listed in the main menu are Skin Care (cleansers, serums, moisturizers, eye care and sunscreen), Hair Care, Makeup, Tools & Devices, Fragrance, Body Care, and Wellness & Supplements. There is also a filter for HSA/FSA eligible products, which some shoppers use to narrow the catalog.

If you already know a brand, start there. If you do not, the category pages are the easier route into a catalog this size.

Perks listed on the homepage

The announcement banner mentions free US shipping on orders of $50 or more, an auto-replenishment option, 15% off a first order placed in the app, and a rewards program. The page also points to gift-with-purchase promotions. Eligibility rules differ for each, so read the terms on the store before relying on them.

Choosing sensibly

With serums and devices in the $95 to $300 range, it helps to decide on one or two priorities before browsing. A single sunscreen or a single serum is an easier first order than a full routine, and sizes are shown in the product name so you can compare value across brands.

Comparing across brands

Since Dermstore stocks other companies’ products, a price on its page is the store’s listed price for that brand. The homepage examples show a useful pattern: the EltaMD sunscreen duo at $88.00 and the Medik8 peptide product at $95.00 sit close together, while the SkinCeuticals serum at $185.00 and the SkinMedica serum at $236.00 sit in a clearly higher band. Looking at size in the product name, such as 1 fl. oz. or 30ml, is the quickest way to judge whether a higher price is simply a bigger bottle. The Anniversary Edit is listed at $150.00.

How to pay less

Offers listed for Dermstore include 15% and 20% off storewide, 18% and 30% off select items, free shipping and a newsletter sign-up offer. Which ones apply varies by brand and date. See our Dermstore coupons page for the current list.

Skin care and wellness products suit different people, so check with a doctor or dermatologist if you have a skin condition or take medication.
