Groceries, designer clothes, exclusive skin care brands, the latest iPhone . . . is there anything you can't get from Target? The next time you head into the bull's-eye for gum and Drano, take a cruise down the beauty aisles, too. You might be surprised at the luxe brands you find. French pharmacy favorites like La Roche-Posay, Vichy, and Nuxe are coming to middle America along with smaller, natural offerings like S.W. Basics and Nourish Organic.

Target has already unlocked the hearts of fashion lovers (Altuzarra for less than $100? Swoon!). The brand has also expanded its multicultural hair offerings, including natural hair favorites like Carol's Daughter and Mixed Chicks on the shelves nationwide. But these exclusive skin care brands (plus, sexy checkout boys like Alex from Target) are all a part of the plan to woo beauty fiends. We have to say that it's working! Source: POPSUGAR Photography

Acure Organics

Acure Organics

The list of the toxins that aren't included in the Acure products (parabens, phthalates, sulfates, petroleum, silicone, synthetic fragrance) is longer than the actual ingredients lineup. The family-owned business may be branching out to the mass market, but it still prides itself on using organic elements.

Own Beauty

Own Beauty

The Own label has a bevy of symbols touting its gluten-free, vegan, cruelty-free, and non-GMO certifications, but that's not why we love the brand (although it's definitely a bonus). Own has a tailored range of skin care products that fit your needs. Not sure where you belong? The company also has an app to help determine your product needs.

Skinfix

Skinfix

The Skinfix moisturizer recipe was passed down from generation to generation until the British pharmacy formula finally made its way to Nova Scotia, Canada. Now, the age-old eczema remedy has been revitalized, coming to the US through Target. Currently the line has three products: a targeted rash balm with two-percent colloidal oatmeal, a body lotion, and a hand cream.

La Roche-Posay

La Roche-Posay

Your dermatologist may have already recommended this brand as an over-the-counter eczema or acne solution because when it comes to sensitive skin care, La Roche-Posay is the international leader. The foundation of the brand comes from the thermal spring waters around the institute, which they've literally bottled and brought stateside. Within the range, you'll find treatments for dark spots, sensitive skin, and more.

S.W. Basics

S.W. Basics

What started as a mom-and-pop beauty brand in the New York borough of Brooklyn has now reached a nationwide spread. The all-natural company takes an organic approach to skin care, using as little ingredients as possible. Some of the scrubs and masks are even edible (and, yes, the products do taste delicious).

Try: S.W. Basics Cream ($32)

Laneige

Laneige

The magical ingredient behind Laneige's skin innovations is mineral water. Already a top seller in skin-centric countries like China, Korea, and Singapore, you can now get the powerful antiaging formulas at Target. The innovative BB Cushion has all the best facets of skin care, like SPF 50 and a color-correcting pigment. Plus, the bouncy compact won't crack or explode.

Nourish Organic

Nourish Organic

Sure, many beauty labels read "natural" and "organic," but Nourish Organic is one of the very few that have the USDA's seal of approval. We promise you'll be able to recognize every ingredient in these vegan-friendly, gluten-free products.

Boots No7

Boots No7

Boots No7 has been a staple British brand since the 1930s. The international company provides skin solutions from body care to antiaging face products and color cosmetics, too. You can't compete with over 70 years of beauty expertise!

Vichy

Vichy

Vichy is yet another French import that has taken over the US beauty market. The thermal spa water is the basis of the product range, but the creams and concoctions are leading the antiaging category worldwide.

Nuxe

Nuxe

This month, the Nuxe skin care line is coming to the local bull's-eye. The Huile Prodigieuse is the original bestseller for the French skin brand, which already has a cult following abroad and in the states. The fragrant oil can be used to hydrate skin from head to toe. We're also big fans of the Ultra-Nourishing Lip Balm, which will soothe chapped lips without leaving a sticky, glossy residue.

Benzac
Benzac

Benzac

Benzac is a well-known prescription acne brand that uses benzoyl peroxide to clear breakouts. Recently the company launched a new over-the-counter skin care range in Target. The line includes a face wash, moisturizer, and spot treatment. It's dermatologist-grade solutions at a drugstore-worthy price.
