    38 Beauty Products That Deserve A Place In Your Routine

    Trending lash serum, soothing face masks, effective teeth whitening pens, and other helpful products you'll wanna welcome into your life with open arms.

    1. A shadow palette that contains 16 pastel and nude hues to give your eyes a little extra flower power. The easy-to-apply formula is blendable and long lasting, and you get a range of matte and shimmery finishes to complement all your fave looks.

    2. A fast-acting exfoliating First Aid Beauty Bump Eraser Body Scrub reviewers swear by for getting rid of dry, rough bumps while brightening and soothing skin.

    Promising review: "I have the driest heels and this is the ONLY product that has ever worked. Before I used this my heels had some pretty deep cracks and now they're almost baby soft again. BUT please follow the directions...left it on my super-dry, thick-calloused heels for only three minutes and the callouses were literally melting off! Wonderful product! So glad I don't have to go soak my feet in those tubs at the nail salon anymore." —Key2Del
