A wake up eye gel formulated with hyaluronic acid and caffeine to help...well...wake up your eyes — and by that, we mean keep the skin around them hydrated while helping to cut down the appearance of puffiness and swelling. Evidence of the fact you keep going to sleep too late because you can't stop watching Real Housewives, begone!
An under-eye brightener that's gone super viral super quick and FOR GOOD REASON! This awesome stuff contains hyaluronic acid and shea butter to nourish and brighten the area under your eyes. Your new holy grail for concealing dark circles hath arrived!
A Clinique tinted lip balm in Black Honey here to challenge the notion that a single-shade makeup product can't work for everyone because this incredible product really does look good on EVERYONE, thanks to a blend of blue, red, and yellow pigments that match the natural color of your lips. It's also not ~actually~ lipstick but provides the pigmented look of lipstick with the sheer shimmer of gloss. Not sure why you're even still reading this when you should be hitting "purchase."
A cleansing oil designed to clean makeup residue, potentially clear up blackheads and sebum, and help minimize the appearance of pores and acne. Its hypoallergenic and gentle formula plays well with sensitive and acne-prone skin, and many reviewers actually use it as a step in their double cleansing routine. Double cleansing = using an oil-based cleanser (like this one) and then a water-based cleanser afterward!
A lightweight snail essence (no snails are harmed in the making of this product, promise) that'll deliver seriously good hydration, and can help brighten your skin and may reduce/prevent acne.
Or a body gel cream featuring a fast-absorbing formula that's essentially a drink of water for your skin. You may already be familiar with Neutrogena's Hydro Boost water gel face cream, and it's time to bring that same moisturizing goodness to the rest of your body.
A callus-removal gel so you can experience the baby-soft feet you not only want but truly deserve. Soak your feet for two to three minutes in hot water, dry them, and apply a generous layer of the gel to your calloused feet. Then let it sit for three minutes, wipe it off, use a foot scrubber of your choice, and bam — dead skin be gone.
An E.l.f. Cosmetics creamy color corrector that boasts it can help camouflage skin discoloration, dullness, redness, and blemishes. It comes in five shades so all you have to do is find the right color for your skin tone and apply it before applying your foundation or concealer.
An internet-famed Sol de Janeiro body cream made with guarana and cupuacu butter to bring smoothness and hydration to your skin. Best of all, it has a delish pistachio, salted caramel, and vanilla scent and is gonna have everyone you talk to commenting on how darn good you smell.
A tube of Essence Lash Princess mascara to give you lashes so dramatic, no one will believe you when you tell them you bought it for less than $5 on Amazon. No need to spend hours wrestling with falsies to get the long lashes of your dreams. Reviewers also rave that this lasts all day. Thank goodness! You have better things to do than reapply throughout the day.
Or an E.l.f. tubing mascara that wraps each lash and gives it a length only false lashes could compete with. PLUS, it's resistant to clumping, flaking, and smudging...and if THAT wasn't enough, it comes off so easily that you'll no longer dread the process that is wiping off your mascara at the end of the day.
A collagen hair protein treatment to help repair damage from things like heat, sun, and dye, just to name a few, because we want you to be able to do all the cool, experimental things with your hair.
Eye drops that curtail redness in just one minute and offer results that can last for up to EIGHT hours. Talk about products that maximize time efficiency.
A multi-balm hydrating stick featuring a portable design that's super easy to bring on the go anytime your face is in need of a lil' moisture boost. Not only that, but this nifty stick may just help reduce the appearance of wrinkles, improve skin elasticity, and smooth fine lines.
A biotin shampoo that could help hair look thicker by strengthening strands to prevent breakage. It's made with a blend of botanical extracts to help nourish and cleanse your scalp.
A One/Size blurring setting powder — consider yourself warned: You will kick yourself for not owning this sooner because wowie, this stuff is GOOD. It helps to set makeup for long-lasting wear and without looking cakey, but wait! It does more! It also helps to decrease shine and the appearance of fine lines and pores. Airbrushed skin, here you come.
And if powder isn't your thing, then this Urban Decay All Nighter Setting Spray is a MUST! It'll help prevent smudging and fading. For context, it kept one BuzzFeed Swiftie's makeup in place ALL night when she went to The Eras Tour (a 3.5-hour long show, mind you). If that's not a testament to how well it works, IDK what is.
A hydrating eye stick because it may help alleviate dark circles and puffiness — but let's be real, you're mostly gonna want to buy this for the satisfying cooling sensation it'll give your skin and the v cute polar bear.
A moisturizing body wash containing notes of white jasmine, red currant, and sweet amber to help make shower time a whole lot more luxurious for under $10. Reviewers say it smells JUST like Baccarat Rouge 540...without having to spend $335 on a bottle of perfume!
Bio-Oil, a cult-favorite skincare oil to help pare down the appearance of scars left behind by acne, pregnancy, injuries, or surgeries thanks to a powerful (but gentle) combo of vitamin A, vitamin E, sunflower, lavender, and chamomile oils.
A pack of exfoliating pads aimed at helping reduce the appearance of pores. I know, I know — it sounds too good to be true, but gimme a second to tell you how these work. One side of the pad (the ~exfoliation side~) cleans out pores and dead skin cells, while the other side of the pad (the ~embossed side~) smooths and tones for a silky finish. Don't believe me? See for yourself!
A pack of overnight hydrogel masks because anything that works tirelessly to improve skin while you channel your inner Sleeping Beauty is an automatic "add to cart" moment. To use, just pop it on after your nighttime skin routine, leave it on while you sleep (don't worry, it won't leave residue on your pillow), and remove it the next morning! It'll help hydrate, brighten, tighten, and lessen the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
A satin pillowcase bound to make you wonder how you made it this long without this as part of your bed setup. This cooling silk case provides benefits for your hair (like reducing dryness and tangles) and skin (such as keeping your lashes and brows intact).
A dermatologist-formulated soap bar designed to target acne, blackheads, blemishes, and clogged pores. Thanks to sulfur, it cleans away excess oil and breakout-causing bacteria.
A liquid blush boasting a deliciously creamy, pigmented formula that applies light for a natural matte finish look bound to make it an instant fave in your makeup pouch. Plus, it's super buildable, so you can decide just how much or little shade you feel like rocking on those gorg cheeks of yours.
Or this lovely lip and cheek cream made with jojoba oil that'll feel smooth upon application. This product is ultra layer-able, so you're in the director's chair when it comes to deciding how bold or au naturel you wanna go with this.
A moisturizer containing retinol, hyaluronic acid, vitamin E, shea butter, jojoba oil, and green tea that work together to help lessen the look of fine lines and wrinkles and leave skin brighter and more radiant.
A spray-application foundation that's super buildable for customizing your own level of coverage. Not to mention, it's v lightweight — and thank goodness for that because foundation that leaves your skin feeling oily and weighed down is just NOT the vibe anymore! When you want an airbrushed look, you also want an ~airy~ feel.
A Neutrogena moisturizing face sunscreen you'll want to add to your daily skincare routine PRONTO. Containing vitamin E and SPF 60, this serum provides hydration, UVA and UVB protection, and works great as a makeup primer, too! Oh, and it does it all without leaving behind a white cast on your skin.
A hair wax stick formulated with beeswax, vitamin E, avocado oil, and more plant-based ingredients to provide a nongreasy, nonhardening solution to smoothing frizzy hairs and stray strands. This is especially great for fans of the slicked-back ponytail look.
A set of Kitsch's Zig Zag headbands because the '90s called, and they want you to bring back the oh-so iconique lewk — slick-backed front with a voluminous partay in the back. Nothing beats it. Oh, wait, one thing does: The fact that reviewers rave that these are so comfortable, they don't get headaches with these like they do with other headbands.
