One thing I've learned as a beauty editor is that you don't always have to spend a small fortune on skincare to notice a real difference, regardless of your skin type.

While my routine does consist of the odd luxury buy, lately it's the cheaper products I've become hooked on. And it seems I'm not alone in opting for more affordable versions.

From dermatologist-rated brands such as CeraVe and The Ordinary to those which are currently a little under the radar but brilliant all the same, here are the products that you should get on board with before everyone else catches on. And they're all under £13.
