1. Fenty Pro Filt'r Soft Matte Powder Foundation sets liquid makeup for an anti-shine finish that can also be worn alone as a foundation. You'll never have to worry about flashback in photos ever again.
Promising review: "This powder has a BEAUTIFUL airbrush/flawless finish on the skin without being cakey or dry. Kind of reminds me of the MAC studio fix powder foundation if you’ve ever tried that before but even better. The Fenty hydrating foundation was my absolute favorite holy grail foundation for my combo skin but this just might take the top spot as my new favorite. It wears very well underneath a mask too. I did have transfer on my mask but my face was nearly flawless after taking it off after a seven-hour shift. Powder foundation was never really my favorite foundation type but I will always go back to this one. Definitely a must-try." —makaylax97
Price: $36 (available in 50 shades)
2. Glow Recipe Watermelon Dew Drops prep skin with the hydration it needs before makeup application. This lightweight gel helps visibly reduce hyperpigmentation and minimize pores.
3. NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer packs a mighty punch as it conceals, brightens, and contours with a medium-coverage and long-lasting finish. Use it over foundation or solo in a pinch!
Promising review: "This concealer from NARS Cosmetics is by far the best one I have used! The finished look was not only amazing, but it sustained quality and durability when put to the test! Thank you NARS for creating such an iconic and timeless piece! You now have a customer for a lifetime. :)" –Kourtney84
Price: $13+ (available in 30 shades)
4. Benefit Gimme Brow adds volume and tint to brows that require no other filling in. Brush this on your brows and it'll add additional fibers and keep them in place ~effortlessly~.
Promising review: "I literally can't even find the words to describe how amazing this product is. I've been using the benefit brow zings for 6+ years now and one day I just decided I hated the chunky, blocky, super defined brow look (plus i just wasn't very good at doing it... it looked really bad). I wanted a more natural look and this product gives me the most PERFECT natural brows. I have pretty thick brows to begin with, just a few sparse spots. This product gives me the perfect fake-microbladed look and it is SO easy to use. Literally just takes a few seconds and my brows look so thick and natural and feathery and perfect. I AM OBSESSED. I also used ABH brow pen to draw in a few extra hairs here and there. I love love love this product so much and I wish I had found it six years ago!!!!" —nicole898
Price: $14+ (available in three sizes and 10 colors)
5. Youth To The People Superfood Cleanser works for normal, combination, oily, and dry skin types to effectively remove your day's worth of makeup while also balancing your skin's pH levels.
Promising review: "I love this cleanser so much! I started using it about a month ago, and my skin has been loving it! I love how it lathers but doesn’t dry out my skin. I have dry cheeks, a normal forehead, and an oily nose so I needed a cleanser that helps with all of that, and this one does! It makes my skin feel so soft and smooth immediately after use (it never feels dry)! It’s small size works as a small gift. Definitely would recommend for any skin type!" —Emi4566
Price: $12+ (available in three sizes)
6. Peace Out Retinol Eye Stick targets tired skin (that may or may not have gotten a good night's rest) to help smooth and hydrate. Glide this under the eyes to firm and moisturize the skin so you look incredibly energized.
7. Bobbi Brown Highlighter supplies high shine that'll give you the most radiant of glows. Pop this on the high parts of the cheekbone, on your brown bone, cupid's bow, and on the inner corner of your eyes for some sparkle.
Promising review: "Gorgeous lightweight highlight. Extremely impressed with the pigmentation and the natural glow it gives. More of a sun-kissed look then a 'makeup' look. It's very lightweight too and has very little that falls off the brush." —MelissaSG
Price: $25+ (available in two sizes and six colors)
8. Too Faced The Natural Nudes eyeshadow palette offers 16 stunning neutral shades for creating your dream eye look. A balance of matte and shimmer shades are formulated with coconut water to maintain skin moisture levels (yes — even on your eyelids).
Promising review: "I really enjoy this palette! I find it so easy to blend and I use my fingers to apply the shimmer shadows and have no issues. I find it so easy to find the complementary color schemes and I like that you have the option to mix and match colors. I really do enjoy not having to overthink which ones to pair with which. Such a lovely every day palette. A staple in my opinion." —val87
Price: $48
9. Tower 28 Bronzino Illuminating Bronzer applies like a creamy dream to contour and warm up the parts of the face where you want to look bronzey. Of all the cream bronzers I've tried, this takes the cake.
In my mid-twenties, I started experimenting more with cream products since I felt like powder products were latching on to parts of my skin where I tended to have dry patches. I was intimidated at first by the slight shimmer sheen in this product but after application I couldn't have been more wrong. This product is my holy grail of cream contours. It looks natural and I mean that. I apply this after my foundation and under my setting powder and then add a bit of powder bronzer on top of it and my skin has never looked smoother, healthier, and more airbrushed in my whole life.
Price: $20 (available in five shades)
10. Stila Huge Extreme Lash Mascara volumizes lashes to look so amazing you'll forget all about falsies and extensions (your wallet will thank you too).
Promising review: "This is my absolute favorite mascara for big, chunky lashes! It is a very true black and stays on my lashes really well. The brush really allows the mascara to catch the eyelashes well and I don't find it takes a lot of effort to apply. I've been buying this for years and will continue to buy." —melissaadkins
Price: $24
11. Glow Recipe Watermelon Lip Balm delivers a combination of essential vitamins, coconut, and flower extracts like hibiscus and wild pansy for a hydrating handbag must-have. (Honestly, Harry Styles probs loves this lip balm too...*winks*)
12. Farmacy Deep Sweep Toner exfoliates dead skin and leftover makeup that may have not fully come off during your cleansing sesh. Take a cotton pad and some of this toner to tighten your pores and reveal rejuvenated-looking skin.
13. Milk Makeup Hydro Grip Primer helps prep your skin whether you decide to put makeup on or not. It has ingredients like blue agave extract and aloe water to hydrate skin, and will also help makeup stay on longer throughout the day.
Promising review: "This is the best primer I've tried! It goes on like a thin mask, but after giving it a minute or two to dry completely it keeps my makeup looking fresh all day! I will stick with this brand for life!" —Cassarolli
Price: $17+ (available in two sizes)
14. Natasha Denona Glam Eyeshadow Palette literally tells you where to place each shade if you have no clue where to start. This palette has the perfect combination of matte, shimmer, and satin shades for a wide variety of effortless looks.
I've owned quite a slew of eyeshadow palettes over the years but this one by far is the most luxe and easy to use. The colors are stunning especially because I go for more toned down eyeshadow looks these days that just give me a slight shimmer and a bit of depth to the eyes. In my opinion it's worth every penny and blends spectacularly.
Price: $65
15. Urban Decay All Nighter Setting Spray absorbs excess oil and ensures your makeup stays put the entire day. Temperature control technology assists if it gets too hot so your makeup is less likely to slide down your face.
16. Chanel Chance perfume provides the freshest aroma that you need to add to your fragrance line-up ASAP. This is the most evergreen and classic scent you'll ever own — PERIOD. It features notes of grapefruit, rose accord, and white musk.
This is my favorite perfume OF ALL TIME (and I mean that with every fiber of my being). It's one of the most fresh scents with just a hint of florals and a hint of sweetness and I always get compliments on it. It also smells AMAZING on everyone. If you're on the market for a new perfume — this is your answer.
Price: $82+ (available in three sizes)
17. Ouai Leave In Conditioner helps replenish damaged hair after you hop out of the shower to make brushing way less knotty. It also smells bomb.
Promising review: "Caution! This product will have you distracted and smelling your hair all day. :) I mist this on my ends after every shower. Smells incredible and leaves my hair feeling soft and healthy after heat styling. I can blow-dry and go without curling or straightening if I use this, which, is a big deal!" —Mountainstyle
Price: $12+ (available in two sizes)
18. Rare Beauty Weightless Foundation provides medium coverage to skin that's as light as a feather. This moisturizing foundation has a botanical blend of ingredients like lotus, gardenia, and water lily that'll also help calm skin while simultaneously supplying the perfect base for your makeup look.
Promising review: "I love the buildable coverage, and it doesn't look cakey or thick on my skin. It's also not super matte or dewey, a really great natural skin look. I also REALLY appreciate that there are olive tones for lighter skin, a lot of brands will only have olive tones for medium and darker skin, which makes it hard for me to find foundation a lot of the time." —DarbySB
Price: $29 (available in 48 shades)
19. Pat McGrath Lust Lip Gloss sparkles and shines on lips for a truly glistening pout. For days you want a more hydrating lippie option other than matte liquid lipstick, this shimmering gloss will be your go-to.
Promising review: "This is the best lip gloss that I have tried hands-down and I have about 16 different brands of lip glosses and this one has the perfect amount of color and moisture. You should buy." —jaswalk1218
Price: $25+ (available in 18 shades and three finishes)
20. Youth To The People Moisture Cream has an air-whip texture so light and fluffy you'll want to bathe in it. Enriched with kale, spinach, and green tea, it'll be the superfood your skin is needing this winter.
Promising review: "I absolutely love the YTTP products and this is no exception! I’ve been on the search for a face cream that doesn’t break me out and provides enough moisture without being too greasy for my combo/oily skin and this is it! This is now my everyday face cream and I love it. A little goes a long way. It’s lightweight and my skin quickly absorbs it and feels hydrated. I’ve purchased it twice now and it’ll always have a place in my skincare routine." —ioak
Price: $48
21. Makeup By Mario Pigment Pro Eyeliner smokes out the lower lashline with a simple swipe of this super opaque liner and a quick buff from the attached brush. If you prefer more volume on the upper lashline (but aren't a fan of winged liner) you can smudge some of this right on the lashes at the base for a fuller look.
Promising review: "Amazing eyeliner!! It goes on very smooth and is black. I was looking for an eyeliner that will replace my NARS eyeliner that they discontinued. I have very sensitive eyes and this did not affect my eyes even when I wore the eyeliner on my water line. Highly recommend!!" —Jans1984
Price: $22 (available in five shades)
22. The Ordinary Salicylic Acid Masque enhances skin's smoothness with ingredients like charcoal and clay. This mask will help remove dead skin cells and also soothe break-out prone skin in a pinch.
Promising review: "Everything good they say about this mask is true! The best ever! It helps with acne and it smooths your skin. After using it my skin feels incredibly soft and my pores are less noticeable. I love it! And whenever I have a pimple I use it as a spot treatment over night and it is gone or almost gone by morning." —vallerotondo
Price: $12
23. Benefit Cosmetics Hoola Bronzer warms up your complexion with a natural yet pigmented finish. It might just be the answer to all of the warm, sun-kissed complexion fantasies you dream about in the dead of winter.
Promising review: “Best bronzer I've ever used. I'll be using this stuff for the rest of my life. It looks so natural and blends in so well. I use it as contour and sometimes to make myself look sun-kissed. I also use it as eyeshadow and it looks wonderful. A must-buy!” –sisiz4
Price: $30+ (available in two sizes and in four matte shades and one shimmer shade)
24. The Laneige Lip Sleeping Mask is the end-all-be-all of lip nourishment for Sephora buyers. Its thick, hydrating formula keeps lips moisturized for longer with a glossy finish. Put it on at bedtime (or any time of day, really) and kiss your chapped lips goodbye.
Promising review: “I got this in the ‘gummy bear’ scent and it is such a lovely product. It is so hydrating, nourishing, buttery, and luxurious. Plus, the gummy bear smell is delicious, nostalgic, and very comforting. I know this is a sleeping mask but I use it in the morning as well. Once I’ve applied it in the morning, I don’t need to reapply lip balm throughout the day until I use this again before bed. I’m excited to see how this helps my dry, flakey lips during the cold Canadian winter.” –tartefull
Price: $22 (available in seven scents).
25. Olaplex No. 8 Bond Intense Moisture Mask uses their patented bond-building, clean formula to strengthen and nourish your hair. Add this to your self-care-Sunday routine and show off your luscious locks when you’re back on the Monday grind.
Promising review: “I tried this for the first time and was shocked by how noticeably soft and shiny my hair was once it dried. I spent two days at a sweaty/sandy music festival and my hair didn't even need to be brushed or washed. It maintained its softness and shine the whole time! I also used this after a week of ocean and pool swims and it completely restored my hair from the damaged dry mess caused by chlorine and salt. I have long fine hair that tends to tangle and curl into clumps but this mask made it baby-soft! 11/10 product!” –MartyLevkova
Price: $28
26. The Sol de Janeiro Brazilian Bum Bum Cream lets you feel like a tropical beach god or goddess who also happens to smell incredible. Its rich formula will smooth and firm your skin, while its scent will make you swear off every other body cream.
Promising review: “This is the best lotion I have ever used! I got it as a birthday gift last year and have been repurchasing it ever since. It makes my skin feel super soft and moisturized, without leaving the greasy feeling I get from other lotions that I've tried. I can even use it on my hands without things slipping out of them (i get VERY sweaty hands so this is a miracle). I do think it has actually helped lighten my stretch marks a little bit as well! The smell is heavenly. I have no other words to describe it. It is a little strong though, so if you’re sensitive to fragrance then this may not be the best. However, it does last all day!” –jordant94
Price: $20+ (available in three sizes)
