It'll be so satisfying to watch your makeup practically wash away. Plus, it contains hyaluronic acid, ceramides, and peptides to leave your skin feeling smooth and hydrated. Or, a beloved K-beauty 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! An E.l.f.

A set of freckle pens (yes, you read that right) if you've always been a lil' jelly of your friends with natural freckles. Now, you can rock 'em too!

The trick is the wand's conic-shaped fiber brush that's designed to separate, sculpt, and lengthen your lashes *without* clumping. This bestseller has clearly earned the 215,000+ 5-star ratings! And since we're saving money and *not* making beauty appointments, some Vafee Lip-Plumping Gloss to give your lips the look of a plumper pout and the feel of all-day hydration. It's collagen and vitamin E-rich formula has reviewers obsessed with their *very* visible results! A layered necklace set that makes it easy to add some oomph to your 'fit. These gorgeous chains are separate, too, so you can wear them individually and adjust them as much as you'd like! Reviewers are obsessed with how great the quality is at such a low price point. An elevated laptop tote bag perfect for my 9-5 fashionistas, but great for my coffee shop dwellers, too. Either way, you *will* be stopped and complimented on this bag! This beaut has tons of room for not only your laptop, but also your makeup bag, books, and daily essentials. Some reviewers even compare this to (and favor it over) the Béis Work Tote that sells for $128! A roll of marble contact paper you can use literally everywhere! Not kidding; this looks good on nightstands, countertops, picture frames, bar carts — the list is never-ending. This renter-friendly peel-and-stick paper will turn any drab thing into something that looks like you paid hundreds (maybe thousands!) for it. And some thick velvet slipcovers so you don't have to spend big bucks on a brand-new couch. It'll look like you did just that by the time you're done! And to ensure they stay in place, these covers have nonslip straps, too. A pair of retro-style oval sunglasses with stunning gold detail that makes 'em look pretty dang similar to those $400 Miu Miu shades you've been seeing your favorite celebs rocking lately. This timeless shape oozes "extravagance and wealth, dawling" and they have UV 400 protection on top of it all!? They're clearly a wardrobe essential at this point. And a pearl sunglasses chain to stylishly keep your sunnies or eyeglasses within reach. Convenient *and* fancy? I'm in! A cut crystal–style cocktail shaker you'll want to pull out and show off any chance you get. It's heavy, durable, and GORE-GOUS in person according to reviewers. A versatile floral mesh top with a mock neck and long sleeves, making it *perfect* for layering! Wear this beauty under your favorite dress or on top of a basic spaghetti strap tank, and you'll be bound to have heads turning and people asking, "Where did you get that top!?" Many reviewers even compare it to a much pricier brand that shall not be named 👀. Battery-powered picture lights because 1. they'll make your home feel like an art gallery, and 2. absolutely no wiring is needed! If you want to stand and stare at the photo of your cat like you're at the MOMA, you now have the perfect lighting to do so. Cult-favorite Nyx Fat Oil Lip Drop — a must, simply because spending $40 on Dior's lip oil when reviewers say that this works just as great (if not better) would be preposterous. This lip oil hydrates and shines like you've spent the big bucks *and* works great as a lipstick topper, too! Dossier's "Ambery Vanilla" perfume — it's inspired by YSL's Black Opium! It features similar warm notes like Jasmine, coffee, and, of course, vanilla. With sweet hints of mandarin and pink peppercorn, too. Dossier's version is long-lasting (up to eight hours!) and has elegant packaging that's worthy of display. But you know what it doesn't have? A $100 price tag. A glamorous set of feather-trim pajamas reviewers say are ridiculously comfortable and oh-so chic. I mean... just look at that top! You might need to plan a pajama party just to show it off. A draped, off-the-shoulder midi dress that'll have you strutting and posing like a high-fashion model. It's the perfect option for any weddings you've got coming up. A pair of pointed-toe flats because they're breathable, comfortable, machine-washable, and — surprise! — not a pair of Rothy's, the high-end brand that claims all the same at a much higher price point. Rock these as your go-to office shoes *and* wear them as you galavant through Italy singing "This Is What Dreams Are Made Of". The limit truly does not exist. A beautiful tennis bracelet giving Swarovski kind of sparkle for less than $20! Reviewers are obsessed with this bracelet thanks to the secure clasp and durability from constant wear. If you've been eyeing the real deal, this is the *perfect* way to test the waters! A pack of scented shower steamers because fully upgrading to a filtered aromatherapy showerhead has a heavy price tag. These will turn your shower into a place of luxurious bliss with scents like citrus, grapefruit, and more energizing aromas. Or a eucalyptus bundle to hang in your shower for soothing, spa-like energy and a fancy hotel-level of relaxation. It'll provide a delightful smell while you spend your everything-shower dreaming of white sand beaches and champagne in first class. A faux leather belt because Gucci isn't the only one who can rock this buckle style. This beauty costs less than a designer keychain and will get ten times the use. A pair of stylish teardrop earrings for anyone who wants the luxe look of Bottega Veneta without spending tons (and I mean TONS) of $$$. These gorgeous earrings will make just as big of a statement — just take a look at the nearly 3,000 5-star reviews! A shabby chic ruched comforter set truly fit for royalty (aka you). The set comes complete with two matching pillowcases — each made of ultra-soft and fluffy material and giving a luxurious look you wouldn't expect to come from Amazon. A silky satin midi skirt featuring an elastic waistband, so there are absolutely no worries about comfort or fit. Rooftop photoshoot season is upon us, and now you have the *perfect* skirt for the occasion. A glamorous ruched top and pants set because these show-stopping trousers deserve to be seen by all! The set comes in A LOT of different colors and patterns (seriously, there are more than 30 options!) and can be dressed up *or* down, too. A 10-piece set of rose gold makeup brushes with incredibly soft bristles that'll make for a seamless, airbrushed makeup look. Did you get your makeup professionally done? Nope. But it'll sure look like it! Bonus points for these brushes being gorgeous to look at and comparable to the much pricier Artis brushes. A pair of sleek motion-sensor cabinet lights that'll be useful when prepping dinner, and also give your kitchen a more elevated look. Who says you can't get that fancy hotel vibe at home? Chic wide-frame cat eye sunnies so stylish, it kind of doesn't matter what you're wearing below because you'll automatically look like you're heading to a meeting with Anna Wintour with these on. And BTW, these are the *perfect* alternative for a designer pair that's $300+. Major win! A saddle shoulder bag that's the perfect option for anyone who doesn't want to spend thousands on similar designer versions. It comes with both a short shoulder bag strap and a longer crossbody strap. Reviewers say it's even cuter in person, too!

Now you can use the money you would've spent on buying a second bathing suit toward doing another fun summertime water activity! A set of press-on nails reviewers adore because, unlike other brands of press-on nails, these actually look like they were done professionally at the salon. Ya know, all without having to put on real clothes and spend half your paycheck on routine salon visits. A pair of wireless Bluetooth earbuds that are waterproof, come with different silicone earbuds so you can find your perfect size, and happen to be just as good as more expensive headphones on the market at a fraction of the cost (*cough AirPods cough*).

And on the subject of expensive-looking jewelry, a tennis bracelet for rocking a pretty piece of wrist candy bound to make everyone around you so very jelly. A crochet cover-up that's bound to make you feel like you walked right off the runway at a fashion show and right on over to the beach/pool. Will it be socially acceptable to wear this as like...a sweater when the summer ends? Asking for a friend. A ridiculously soft throw blanket you're gonna want to snuggle up with ALL. THE. TIME. Reviewers love this because it's similar to the popular Barefoot Dreams blanket at a fraction of the cost!

Reviewers love that these are similar to the Laneige Lip Sleeping Mask and come with THREE masks for a fraction of the cost of one mask.

A set of decorative wall mirrors, because devoting a wall in your home to some seriously luxe-looking mirrors so you can look at your luxe-looking self in adoration is what it's all about, baby. A pair of braided heel sandals ready to be your showstopping plus-one at brunch and dinner dates with the besties, warm weather weddings, or even strutting around the office. A seal-tight glass storage container perfect for holding leftovers or transporting lunches to work. It's basically been scientifically proven that eating out of an aesthetic container makes you less likely to run out and buy an overpriced chopped salad. A rotating cosmetic organizer, because news flash: Keeping all your makeup products stashed in the corner of your bathroom counter isn't the aesthetic you think it is. It's actually not any sort of aesthetic. Give your beauty items a spot of their own in this chic piece!
