    27 Impressive Beauty Products That'll Actually Deliver Results

    Facial oils, makeup, and hair treatments that'll give you the results you paid for.

    1. A rosehip oil for tackling (and DEFEATING!!!) your skin's biggest frustrations: Dryness, flakiness, redness, breakouts — you name it. They don't stand a chance when ~faced~ with this.

    2. An ~out-of-this-world~ eyeshadow palette that offers up 21 stellar shades similar to that of Urban Decay's Born to Run. We love to save some money, yes we doooo.

    3. 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!

    4. A hard-workin' curling wand that's so cheap, you'll wonder why you ever spent money on a blowout. It'll give you effortless waves in a matter of minutes.

    5. 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!

    6. A powerful nail strengthener formulated with hydrolyzed wheat protein and calcium to prevent breakage and make your nails harder and longer. It can be used by itself as a stand-alone treatment or as a base coat alternative.

    7. A set of foam rods that'll 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.

    8. A splurge-worthy primer to coat individual lashes and form the perfect base for your mascara to glide on so your lashes appear fuller and longer...which means you can trick everyone into thinking you're wide awake.

    9. And! A cult-favorite mascara to add volume and length to your lashes with a few flicks of the wrist, making those minimal makeup days even easier.

    10. 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.

    11. A variety pack of pimple patches 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!

    12. 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.

    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 liquid solution so you can free your skin from irritating razor burn, ingrown hairs, and rashes when they strike.

    15. And! A razor subscription service that'll deliver you some of the best razors out there, and then replacement shave heads at a frequency that's best for your lifestyle.

    16. A wildly popular hair straightener (it has 38,000+ reviews!) for smoothing out the toughest kinks and leaving behind super silky strands.

    17. 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:

    18. A long-lasting eyeshadow primer to make dang sure your perfectly blended smokey eye stays in its place from sunrise to sunset.

    19. 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.

    20. An Amazonian clay foundation (with SPF 15!) that'll balance complexion and create a flawless matte finish that won't cake or crease on you throughout the day. I would know, this is me!

    21. 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.

    22. A thermal spray that works double time as a heat-protecting spray and leave-in conditioning serum, so next time you put your hair through a styling session, you'll literally see and feel the difference.

    23. 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.

    24. A pedicure rasp — aka a CHEESE GRATER FOR YOUR FEET — that can literally shave away dead, cracked skin and leave behind baby soft feet.

    Reviewer's before and after using the rasp, with the before photo showing severely cracked and dry feet. The after photo shows smooth, almost healed feet.

    25. A no-yellow shampoo to tone down unwanted yellow hues in blonde hair so your mane keeps the vibrant, natural color from your last visit — you know, which means less pricey touchups!

    26. 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.

    27. A hot air brush to make it look like you just walked straight into a salon and dropped some serious money on a blowout. Here's to having (inexpensive) gorgeous soft waves and volume for days.

    Me and my eyes staring at these results:
