    30 Under $25 Walmart Beauty Products You *Shouldn’t* Buy If You Want To Make Your Routine Easier

    The category is: Easy Peasy.

    1. A powder foundation with a 24-hour hold that'll keep your face looking fresh and shine-free all day long. Perfect for a variety of skin types from oily to acne-prone, this lightweight, waterproof formula will keep you looking runway-ready all day.

    2. A Sally Hansen instant cuticle remover gel-oil that is seriously one of the only products you need for at-home manicures. This gently softens dead cuticles to make removal as safe and straightforward as wiping the gel away after a few minutes!

    3. And an Olive & June cuticle softening serum for the rest of your healthy cuticles! Remember — cuticles are a living part of the nail, and cuticle health = nail health. The best part? With its easy click pen design and foam applicator, you can moisturize your nails from anywhere, mess-free!

    4. A set of star-shaped pimple patches, because pimples are a part of everyone's life, so why not make dealing with them at least a little fun? These patches aren't just cute — they're made from hydrocolloid, which means they'll help to draw out all the gunk from a breakout, while significantly lessening any redness in the skin.

    5. A lip exfoliator that's as easy to apply as a lip balm. Using a lip exfoliator like this one can exfoliate and amp up circulation in the lips, giving them a fuller, plumper appearance. And, with moisturizing ingredients like vitamin E, shea butter, avocado, grape, and jojoba oils, your lips will remain smooth and conditioned long after application. Oh, and it tastes like brown sugar! What's sweeter than that?

    6. A viral liquid blush, because blush is all the rage right now. Might as well fortify your collection with a highly pigmented formula that blends into the skin like a dream and adds a dewy touch to your look. (No blotchy spots here, folks!)

    7. A set of Velcro rollers just in case you want to skip out on heat styling but still want 90s-level volume (I'm looking at you, Topanga). You can apply these before bed and sleep on them for large barrel waves upon waking!

    8. A color-correcting crayon that comes in every color to neutralize anything you can imagine. Got dark circles? Consider using shades peach, orange, or bisque (your choice depends on your skin tone). Are blemishes more your concern? Neutralize redness with the green shade. Finally, use the yellow shade to even out blue or purple spots, like broken capillaries. Simply use this before using your concealer for a coverage that'll make your complexion look airbrushed.

    9. A matte, long-lasting liquid lipstick so you can add some killer color without having to worry about your hair getting stuck to your lips like it does when you wear a glossy formula!

    10. A super moisturizing shampoo that contains Kristin Ess's proprietary Zip-Up Technology to seal split ends! Though this color-safe formula is sulfate-free, it lathers up like a dream *and* contains moisturizing avocado oil! If you want something to give your hair a boost in between salon appointments, this is the perfect no-thoughts-required shampoo.

    11. A detangling leave-in conditioner because using a hair detangler is the best way to quickly separate curls and get rid of knots without causing too much frizz. Along with conditioning the hair, ingredients like biotin and marigolds add strength to the strands while boosting shine. Use this on damp hair and watch how easily your wide-tooth comb will glide through your strands.

    12. A clear eyebrow gel if you are after feathery, wispy brows that you can achieve in under a minute. This brow gel is one of the best drugstore options for freezing brow hairs in place, making them look fuller and softer from the moment you put it on until you wash your makeup off at the end of the day.

    13. A Dove deodorant, because you wear deodorant anyway — why not try one that evens skin tone, too?

    14. A tapered curling wand so that you can easily bend your hair into gorgeous waves without dealing with a clunky clamp.

    15. A TikTok-viral Tree Hut sugar and shea scrub, because I have never tried a body scrub this good at such a low price. It leaves the skin feeling soft (not stripped) and smells gorgeous! It's a great daily alternative to a spa-level body scrub.

    16. A Wet Brush, since brushing knots out of your hair while you're still in the shower is the name of the game when it comes to keeping your hair tangle-free! Using this will help your conditioner coat your strands more fully while minimizing breakage that might happen during an out-of-the-shower boar bristle brushing session.

    17. A corrective concealer, because sometime a quick and simple full-coverage concealer is all you need to slay the day. This concealer evens out any dark hues or puffiness under the eyes, diminishes redness around the nose, and can even work as a makeshift highlight in a pinch.

    18. An ice roller I use multiple times a day to decrease puffiness, tighten my jowls, and calm down inflammation around my occasional breakouts. Pro tip: this tool is also a godsend for when you need some cooling relief during tension headaches!

    19. A Bio-Oil dry skin gel because while I am an oil lover myself, I get that body oil isn't for everyone! If you prefer not to have a ten-minute lag time between applying your moisturizer and putting on your clothes in the a.m., this gel has all the benefits of traditional Bio-Oil (i.e. intense moisture and a lessening in hyperpigmentation) with the feel of a lightweight cream.

    20. A volumizing waterproof mascara so your killer makeup looks can last through ANYTHING — whether that's a trip to the pool, a workout at the gym, or tears of joy.

    21. An eyeshadow stick because if you have just about zero minutes in the morning to pull your look together, applying this eyeshadow stick onto your lids and blending it out to your crease with your ring finger takes approximately zero time. It's a process that takes under a minute to do but makes it appear as if you've been working on your makeup for hours. (Oh, and it works as a great highlighter in a pinch!)

    22. A vitamin E-infused coconut oil that's perfect if you are a beauty minimalist who wants something that'll not just moisturize your skin, but your hair and nails, too!

    23. A hugely popular bronzer because there's no rule that says you can't emulate the glow you'd get from being in the sun, even if you're actually indoors working all day. Dust this onto the top of your forehead, cheeks, and nose, and people will surely think you just came back from a tropical getaway.

    24. A poreless putty primer, aka your secret to a shine- and texture-free glow during your day-to-day. You can wear this under your foundation for extra hold, or even wear it on its own for a natural, blurred effect.

    25. A heatless curling set, because hands hovering over your head while you curl your hair is not your idea of "fun" or "easy." This curling set forms your hair into luscious curls overnight — and it requires absolutely no heat!

    26. A nail strengthener you can apply as regular polish and say goodbye to brittle, post-gel manicure nails for good. ✌️

    27. A skin cream, because TikTokers are all raving about this classic that moisturizes without leaving a heavy, greasy film! You can freely use this cream on both your face and body since it's free of dyes, fragrances, parabens, and more!

    28. A dewy setting spray that will be the finishing touch to your my-skin-but-better makeup routine. This setting spray will hold your makeup in place for HOURS while adding a subtle sheen to your complexion.

    29. An oil-free sunscreen, because everyone needs to protect their skin from the sun — even if you have acne-prone skin! This one is oil-free *and* non-comedogenic, meaning it won't clog your pores as you ward off harmful UV damage.

    30. And a bottle of micellar water with rose, since there really are few things in this world as luxurious as spreading rose water all over your skin. This micellar water works hard to melt away the daily grime (makeup, sunscreen, pollution — the list goes on and on), yet is gentle on your skin with soothing rose and hydrating glycerin added inside.
