1. A tinted Tower 28 jelly gloss formulated with some sort of sorcery, because get this: It's not sticky, plus apricot kernel and raspberry seed oils provide a hefty dose of moisture. Someone pinch me.
2. An illuminating primer from the new Rare Beauty collection by Selena Gomez. Simply shake then spritz this water-based gel formula onto your complexion. A blend of lotus, gardenia, and white waterlily will sooth irritated skin while leaving behind an ~I drink a ton of water~ glow.
3. A Fenty matte lipstick that looks good on literally EVERY skin tone, and it'll give you a strong lip stain without making you feel like you're slathering on layers of product.
4. A mini container of Drunk Elephant Protini polypeptide moisturizer, which will help even out skin tone, deliver a dose of hydration, and calm down any flareups.
5. A Glamglow deep cleanse mask for the ultimate ~gunk in pores~ detox. Aesthetics aside, a powerful trio of black bamboo charcoal, 3-D microbubbles, and green tea "Teaoxi" technology tackle dullness and buildup.
6. A pack of Dr. Dennis Gross daily peels capable of ~peeling~ off dead skin cells with just one swipe. Salicylic, glycolic, and lactic acids work in harmony to tackle all of the following skincare concerns: dullness, fine lines, dark spots, and uneven texture. All it takes is a few swipes.
7. A Laneige sleeping mask you can apply before bed and voilà! Hyaluronic acid and vitamin C will have you hitting snooze with a nourished pout that has effectively ~bid adieu~ to flakes. That drying matte lipstick formula will basically glide on like butter.
8. A Nudestix set with a $62 value that you can get for *le gasp* only $25. Treat yourself to a matte blush, shimmer shadow, and gel two-in-one balm collection — all stored in a compact tin complete with a sharpener.
9. A compact of Fenty cream blush that'll go on light and won't feel greasy, but will still give you a glowing flush that'll last all day.
10. A daily Dermalogica powder exfoliant to help reduce fine lines, fight acne, shrink pores, and brighten your complexion one scrub at a time. Papain, salicylic acid, and rice actives are released when combined with water; green tea and colloidal oatmeal calm down redness in a jiffy.
11. A bottle of The Ordinary hyaluronic acid that lets you try a holy grail ingredient for cheap. With just a few taps, this vegan formula will be able to prevent excess oil production, add hydration, and give your skin a boost of brightness — and for less than $7, to boot.
12. A vegan and cruelty-free Ghost shampoo capable of cutting down on grease *without* being too harsh on your mane. A mix of moringa oil, quinoa protein, and sunflower seed extract works together to repair damage and strengthen your hair...all while stopping dryness and brassiness in their tracks.
13. A Milk Makeup gel pencil that's basically a dual-ended pencil: One side holds matte colour and the other houses a built-in spoolie brush. This easy-to-use product is fab because it guarantees natural-looking brows that won't transfer and actually stay put all 👏 day 👏 long 👏.
14. A Caudalie grape water mist extracted from Bordeaux grapes, so consider this the expensive bottle of ~vino~ for the happy hour that is your nighttime skincare routine. A finishing spritz of this = a post-cleansing toner, a boost of hydration, reduced redness, and soothed rosacea.
15. A mini-sized Benefit Cosmetics mascara for volume, volume, and did I mention volume? This 36-hour wear mascara has provitamin B5 to promote natural thickness and a slim, flexible applicator that caters to every lash while still managing to remain lightweight.
16. A cruelty-free Kaja eye pigment for a fantastic dose of ✨ sparkle ✨ that feels like luxury at first swipe. The formula itself applies like a gel and dries as a powder, comes in gorgeous hues, and feels completely weightless.
17. The Ordinary toning solution to fade dark spots and zits, improve radiance, and provide gentle exfoliation with just a few swipes of a cotton round (you can thank a formula of glycolic acid, amino acids, aloe vera, ginseng, and Tasmanian pepperberry for that).
18. A Sephora Collection palette you'll surely *ahem* love a latte. Each pigmented hue is inspired by coffee, which means these six shades will provide all the warm neutral and smoky brown options your daily eyeshadow look could want.
19. A Farmacy lip balm for long-lasting hydration that *won't* eventually dry out your lips even more. I know that you know what I'm talking about — and this 100% natural formula of beeswax, jojoba oil, honey, cupuaçu, and cocoa butters genuinely works.
20. A palette of Sephora's Eye Love eyeshadow collection that'll give you a bunch of neutral shades (both shimmers and mattes), so you can play around with your look without getting TOO extra (not that there's anything wrong with that).
21. And a mini set of Sephora eye makeup brushes so you can practice packing on the pigment and blending out those colours to make your eyes really pop.
