1. A resurfacing night serum formulated with squalane and lactic acid for smoother skin. The lactic acid dissolves dead skin cells, while the squalane provides a dose of hydration, aaaalllll while you're catching some zzzs. This = magic in a bottle.
2. A curling wand guaranteed to give you blowout-status waves at a fraction of the price...and in your own home. This is what beauty on a budget looks like, and I LOVE IT.
3. An Amazonian clay foundation (with SPF 15!) for balancing complexion and creating a flawless matte finish that won't cake or crease.
4. A surface pimple patch for when you feel a zit (or ZITS) comin' on. Just apply over the bump and the patch will draw out sebum and reduce irritation like some type of skin sorcery. I mean, just look at these results. LOOK AT THEM!
5. A setting powder you can count on to deliver gorgeous, shine-free coverage while keeping your makeup in place — all without the horrendous flashback in photos.
6. A hydrating lipstick that — get this — magically shifts into a lovely pink based on the pH of your lips, so you're left with a natural hue that totally suits you. That really is magic.
7. An ultra creamy, fragrance-free moisturizer here to soothe and tackle redness, and irritated, dry, cracked skin. Yes, this is basically the holy grail of moisturizers.
8. A Maybelline concealer featuring a sponge-tip applicator to cover up dark spots with total ease. Really, the sponge does most of the work for you — you just have to dab, dab, dab, and you're done.
9. A liquid solution so you can free your skin from irritating razor burn, ingrown hairs, and rashes when they strike.
10. A long-lasting eyeshadow primer that'll not only make sure your perfectly blended smokey eye stays in its place from sunrise to sunset, but bring out the pigments to deliver bold color.
11. An eyebrow soap kit to set brow hairs in place with its natural beeswax formula, and create that fluffy, natural look.
12. A hot air brush that'll make it look like you just hit up some fancy hair stylist and dropped some serious money. Here's to having (inexpensive) effortless waves and volume for days.
13. Machine-washable and reusable cloths to gently remove dirt and makeup from your skin with a splash of some water. Just toss in the washer after a few uses and start savin' your hard-earned dollars — no more expensive wipes here!
14. A rosehip oil for tackling (and DEFEATING!!!) your skin's biggest woes: Dryness, flakiness, redness, breakouts — you name it. They don't stand a chance when ~faced~ with this.
15. A liquid eyeliner that won't budge, smear, flake, or fade even when the day throws rain, tears, and humidity at you. This is my holy grail product — really, this is me:
16. An at-home eyebrow tint kit so you can achieve gorgeous, fuller-looking brows right in your own bathroom. Not having to leave the house? That's a win-win in my book!
17. A vitamin C serum made with salicylic and hyaluronic acid to not only help with sun damage, but prevent pesky breakouts and restore hydration.
18. A cult-favorite mascara that'll add volume and length to your lashes with a few flicks of the wrist, making those minimal makeup days even easier.
19. And a lash booster for making lashes look, spoiler, boosted. The primer glides on to create a thicker base so when you apply mascara, your lashes appear fuller and longer.
20. A Glossier Boy Brow to make thickening, filling in, and grooming your brows easier than ever. The tinted gel formula and mascara-like wand do it all with just one swipe!
21. A dry shampoo POWDER (!!) so you can ditch the shower on late mornings and achieve hair that *looks* like it just got a fresh wash. Hey, nobody has to know it's going on day three...or five.
22. A "Goof Proof" brow pencil — your ~foolproof~ way to fill in your brows with minimal effort, even if you're not a professional makeup artist (sooo...most of us!). One side defines and fills while the other effortlessly blends — and that's it! Just like that, you're done.
23. A miracle-working hair treatment that might just spin your damaged hair into golden locks ready for their hair commercial debut — all thanks to its top-notch ingredients: ceramides and collagen.
24. A manicure top coat because it is possible to get professional results at home, and this'll help you do it! It's quick-drying, creates a mani-approved shine, and seals in your polish so it L-A-S-T-S.
25. A blue shampoo to tone down unwanted orange hues in hair so your mane keeps the vibrant, natural color from your last visit — you know, which means less pricey touchups!
26. A set of foam rods to give your mane a break from the heat while still delivering beachy waves that require little effort on your part. Really, you could put these things in and then head straight back to the couch.
27. And lastly, a hand cream for repairing blisters, cracked skin, and whatever else your poor hands have been subjected to by boosting moisture levels and then sealing that same moisture in for dear life.
Honestly, thank the beauty gods for review photos!
