PhilosophyCosnova's budget German drugstore cosmetics with a quietly solid skincare extension.Pharmaceutical-grade EGF, made gentle.

Catrice

Catrice is best known for cosmetics, but their skincare line — sold alongside the makeup at dm and Rossmann — is shockingly decent for the price. The Hydrating Face Mist and Clean ID Pure line are worth the €4 if you're building a budget routine.

Pros

✓ Drugstore pricing
✓ Wide EU availability
✓ Respectable clean-line formulas

Cons

✗ Fragranced across most lines
✗ Limited premium actives
✗ Primarily a makeup brand

EasyDew

EasyDew is built on real medical chemistry — the brand was founded by Daewoong Pharmaceutical and uses pharmaceutical-grade EGF (Epidermal Growth Factor), an ingredient most OTC skincare can't legally formulate with at this concentration. Olive Young named them their #1 'slow aging' brand in 2025, and Marie Claire flagged them as one of the K-beauty brands to watch.
