Underrated Chemist Warehouse Products from a Manager Who’s Worked There for 12+ Years!
Jess from @jessfromchemistwarehouse has worked at the blue and yellow chemist for 12+ years.
With over 35,000 followers on TikTok and 15,000+ on Instagram, Jess has a gift for taking us through the (sometimes) overwhelming isles to find hidden gems and best sellers.
Jess started at Chemist Warehouse when she was 21 as a full time pharmacy assistant, coming from a hair dresser apprenticeship she loved.
(Yes, there are some underrated hair picks coming up!)
After a year and a half of working hard as a pharmacy assistant and shadowing her manager, she was asked to move to a new store where she would takeover as Retail Manager.
“I created this page because I want to share my knowledge and excitement about products in Chemist Warehouse.
I love helping people finding their new signature fragrance, their new favourite skincare product, but mostly just an epic deal…
I'm such a savage for bargain hunting…!”
We asked Jess some questions.
What is the "average" person walking into the skincare section at a Chemist Warehouse looking to find?
“…I don't get to talk to all the customers and we have over 1000 customers a day…but I often find so many people come in looking for things they have seen on TikTok haha.
Others may have skin concerns like dry, itchy skin, especially around hayfever season.”
What are the skincare best sellers for your Chemist Warehouse?
“I think La Roche-Posay + CeraVe have a choke hold on all of us, especially their Cicplast and Anthelios ranges.
Simple Biodegradable Cleansing Wipes, Skin Republic retinol hydrogel under eye patches, Skin Control Pimple Patches, Garnier + Bioderma micellar water (I personally prefer Bioderma).
Neutrogena Hydro Boost Gel (slay), Avene Thermal Spring Water, Goat Soap bars, Ego QV Gentle Skin Cleanser...
there are so many products that we honestly sell hundreds of!”
We love seeing the community engagement- what are you often requested to review?
“Everyone is still on the dupe train, which I totally get from the cost of living situation going on and everyone wants an amazing product for less.
This is why MCoBeauty are killing it!
Offering amazing products at an affordable price.”
What are the 3 best underrated products at Chemist Warehouse?
“I would have to say Kristin Ess hair care is very underrated, I'm a massive fan!
Krumbled beauty bites are underrated, I know these are quiet new, so it may just be because no-one knows about them but they have nutritional and cosmetic benefits in a yummy little bite sized bar!
Skin Control Wrinkle Reset Range - again I know these are pretty new but I had to double blink when I put these into the shelf and saw the price.
They are insanely affordable when compared to others on the market.
I love the forehead one and really notice a difference when I wear it overnight.”
Thank you for sharing your top picks Jess!
