1. L'Oreal Voluminous Primer Mascara goes on white and adds additional fibers to lengthen and thicken lashes. If you've been saying you want lash extensions, this is your inexpensive solution.
2. Maybelline SuperStay Matte Ink Liquid Lipstick lasts for up to 16 hours on the lips (literal sorcery). With an abundance of shade options, you'll have a new go-to lipstick for every day of the week that's matte and highly pigmented.
3. Physician's Formula Butter Bronzer smells like a tropical beverage and lives up to its name. Its buttery texture glides onto the skin for a sun-kissed glow that'll have everyone fooled thinking you've been away on vacay (when you actually haven't moved off the couch in three days).
4. Freck XL creates lifelike freckles wherever you place them. Decide how heavy or light to apply the cluster of faux freckles, and lightly tap so they blend into the skin. ~BAM~ All-day beauty marks that look realistic as heck.
5. Essence Lash Princess False Lash Effect Mascara lifts and volumizes lashes for a more wide-awake look.
6. Youthforia BYO Blush graces cheeks with a sweet flush with a minimal amount of product. *Time to get that glow from within.* PLUS (!!!) it works with your skin's pH balance to create your perfect shade.
7. Bioré Deep Cleansing Pore Strips remove dirt and oil from clogged pores. The satisfaction of peeling this off is incredible.
8. Maybelline Instant Age Rewind Concealer supplies the illusion that you've gotten your beauty rest even if you are in fact on your third cup of coffee of the day and it's only 2 p.m... This brightens and covers dark circles so you'll look ~fresh~ throughout the day.
9. Purlisse BB Cream features SPF 30 to protect skin, while supplying a flawless, smooth finish that isn't too heavy. This is great for sensitive skin and it's also vegan and cruelty free.
10. Olaplex Hair Perfector No. 3 works to repair damaged hair to a ~like-new~ state. It starts at the cuticle to strengthen and smooth hair.
11. Coty Airspun Loose Face Powder sets makeup for a long-lasting look that comes in both translucent and color shades. It can even be used on its own as a light-wear foundation.
12. KimChi Pearl Pressed Shimmer Highlighter glows like no other highlight I've ever seen before. I swear this is made out of crushed diamonds or something... I immediately bought one upon seeing these stunning gifs.
13. Stila Stay All Day Liquid Eyeliner features a waterproof formula that doesn't budge even through sweaty workout sessions. A winged liner that lasts all day? Magic.
14. Schick Hydro Silk Touch-Up Razors help you keep on top of your brows between your waxing sessions or to forgo them altogether. I love these for cleaning around my jawline and my upper lip!
15. Denman Hair Brush cuts down styling time and also helps brush through knotty post-shower hair without the pain. The evenly spaced bristles will keep curls nicely defined and bouncy.
16. First Aid Beauty Ultra Repair Cream infuses skin with shea butter and calms with oatmeal so any flaking skin can stop, well — flaking. This is thicker than your typical face cream in case that lightweight one you currently own just isn't cutting it.
17. Avarelle Acne Patches make breakouts vanish overnight. We all know the feeling of stress breakouts (no thank you), so these will be your secret weapon.
18. She Is Bomb Collection Edge Control assists with smoothing and laying your edges (if you want to!) so you can rock top knots all day, every day.
19. Moroccanoil Curl Defining Cream defines and preserves curls so they stay intact and bouncy all day.
20. Paula's Choice 2% BHA Liquid Exfoliant gently exfoliates to minimize the look of pores while simultaneously soothing skin so it's less inflamed and irritated.
21. Lanolips 101 Ointment Superbalm rejuvenates chapped lips, which is a MUST in these colder months. Apply this balm wherever else you need some extra moisture as well (cuticles, skin, etc.)
22. EcoTools Makeup Brush Cleaner removes old makeup from brushes, sponges, and applicators and is hypoallergenic and free from parabens. Lingering makeup on brushes can be detrimental to skin health by causing breakouts and irritated skin — so just, like, wash your brushes, OK?
23. CND SolarOil conditions cuticles with almond oil and vitamin E so you can say goodbye to dry skin. This also helps strengthen nails especially if you've recently taken off a gel manicure that may or may not have weakened your nails a bit.
24. The Crayon Case Notepad Eyeshadow Palette ~schools~ the eyeshadow game with creamy, pigmented shades you'll enjoy buffing and blending for some seriously showstopping looks.
25. Nizoral Anti-Dandruff Shampoo rids the scalp of any flakes that occur due to dry skin. Here's to a less itchy scalp. Reviewers saw results after just one wash!
26. Maybelline Eyebrow Definer Pencil makes it much easier to fill in sparse areas of the brows with a few quick flicks of the pencil. It also has a dual-end with a spoolie brush to tame brows afterward for a beautiful blend.
27. Kiss Strip Eyelash Adhesive keeps faux lashes in place for hours with its waterproof and aloe vera formula. I use this eyelash glue and it's so easy to brush onto lashes and lasts practically all day without having to reapply.
28. AxV Beauty Hydrating Face Oil features ingredients like jojoba oil, vitamin E, and tea tree oil to assist with inflamed skin. This is a great product to try if your skin tends to be irritated, dry, or red.
29. NYX Mechanical Eye Pencil provides long-wear, opaque color that'll glide on the lash line beautifully. To keep your eyeshadows lasting longer, you can also utilize the liner as an eyelid base!
It's time to invest in beauty products that actually work.
