1. NYX's waterproof eyeliner pencil, because it has won over more than 70,000 5-star reviewers with its highly pigmented formula and twist-up design. (If you hate sharpening, this one's for you!) And because its waterproof, reviewers love this for using on their waterline!
Promising review: "For years I used MAC black eyeliner, and bought this in a pinch one day at the mall. Best purchase ever! It’s so smooth when it rolls on, you only need one swipe to get a smooth black line! Gone are the days of going back and forth over and over. Love this! New favorite!" —EvaK
Get it from Amazon for $4.99+ (available in 13 shades).
2. An exfoliating mitten so you can scrub off dead skin cells and reveal softer, smoother skin during your Everything Showers. Just lather up and (gently!) massage your skin — reviewers say this is great for preventing ingrown hairs, helping reduce KP, and using before applying fake tan!
Several reviewers say they just throw theirs right in the washing machine to clean it! They also make a smaller one designed for the bikini area and a long, narrow back scrubber for hard-to-reach areas.
Promising review: "BEST PURCHASE OF MY LIFE. I’m SO excited about these mitts. I have KP on my arms and legs, so exfoliating is extra important for me. I also tend to need to exfoliate more often than the average person, but I never feel like any scrub or brush does enough. These are PERFECT. I followed all of the instructions and the dead skin was just rolling right off, and it felt so nice! I swear this is the cleanest I’ve felt in my entire life, and after only one use my skin is more glowy and smooth than it’s been in years. I don’t think I can live without these now." —bun
Promising review: "I'll be honest; I thought this would be another thing I saw on Amazon via TikTok that was way overhyped. I have crazy dry skin, and despite using lotions, oils, and gentle body washes, I'm an ashy mess. This thing is incredible. I don't think I've ever been this exfoliated in my life! Not a single flake or scaly patch in sight. 1,000/10." —Ruth Bromberg
Get it from Amazon for $6.99+ (available with one or two mittens).
3. L'Oreal True Match Lumi Glotion, a fan-favorite, glycerin-infused illuminator you can mix in with moisturizer or foundation, wear as a base under makeup, *or* apply as a highlight or bronzer for a natural looking (and not glittery) glow.
Reviewers say it's similar to the Drunk Elephant bronzing drops!
Promising review: "Best find this year!! Moisturizing tint with a subtle glow is a perfect first layer for full makeup days or the only foundation needed for light days. I love the rest of the Lumi products as well." —Kelly Burich Kennedy
Promising review: "I’ve been using this product for seven months and I’ve been complimented almost weekly about how I get my skin to look so dewy and glowy. I use this all over with a good coverage foundation and i’ve never felt/looked so sunkissed. Such an amazing product for a killer price!" —Natalie
Get it from Amazon for $12.97 (available in four shades).
4. An ergonomically designed detangling brush with cone-shaped bristles that separate tangles by pulling them apart sideways, not tugging them down. Reviewers say it's a miracle worker for everything from thick, coily hair to the finest strands!
Promising review: "Absolutely worth it. It’s [wild] how well it works! I hate brushing my hair when it’s wet, but with this brush there’s no tangles, yanking or pulling. Best purchase I've ever made." —Aimee Larrabee
Promising review: "I always skeptical of products that claim to 'glide through,' but this brush actually works! I have very thick kinky coily hair and this brush passes through my hair easily both wet and dry. I'd recommend this product to anyone looking for a good detangling brush. And yes, I'm leaving my Denman brush for this one." —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $11.88 (available in six colors).
5. Juno & Co.'s Clean 10 cleansing balm, a non-irritating makeup remover formulated with Japanese pearl barley to help brighten skin as it cleanses. Just scoop out a pea-sized amount (it comes with a lil' spatula!) and massage into your skin — it'll become a luxurious oil and gently dissolve allllll the makeup, SPF, dirt, oil, and more, leaving no residue behind *and* not overly stripping skin of moisture.
Use on its own or pair with Juno & Co's reusable makeup remover pad ($8.99)!
Promising review: "BEST PURCHASE I'VE MADE THIS YEAR! I was just going to take my mascara off with it and I ended up rubbing it all over my face lol! It’s like all the tiktok reviews etc say…perfect makeup remover. Buy this now and you will throw away what you’ve been using. My face feels so clean." —Michele
Promising review: "I LOVE THIS PRODUCT!!!! I found it on TikTok and OMG!! It works so well. I don't have to sit there and rub the crap out of my eyelashes to get the waterproof mascara off. I will admit, it doesn't take 100% of the makeup off but about 95% of my makeup comes off. It is not water-resistant, as emulsifying it with water helps take the makeup off. I have not found a better makeup remover, and yes, that includes micellar water (which also works well but leaves my skin feeling oily). With this cleansing balm, my face feels hydrated and smooth. LOVE LOVE LOVE IT!!!!!!!! 1,000/10 would recommend!!!" —Deetje Frederick
Get it from Amazon for $14.99.
6. Peach & Lily Glass Skin Refining Serum with over 1,800 5-star reviews touting its ability to give that crystal clear mythical "glass skin" with powerhouse actives like niacinamide (a personal favorite) and hyaluronic acid, and frankly delicious-sounding ingredients like peach and East Asian mountain yam.
Promising review: "This is by far the best product I have ever bought. You almost instantly notice the effect and you will be pleased with the results. You don't have to worry about any weird smells. You use such a small amount this sample lasts for a while. This is the number 1 product by peach and lily in my opinion." —Myron R.
Promising review: "This has become my must-have, can't live without. If I have no other products, I need this one in my life. I've been using it for a few months now, morning and night, and noticed dramatic improvement in the clarity, texture, pore size. My skin is so clear, less oily, smoother...I don't feel the need to wear any makeup, which might be a first in my life." —Angela G.
Get it from Peach & Lily or from Ulta for $39.
Peach & Lily is a Korean-owned and woman-owned small beauty brand inspired by K-Beauty — and the products are *popular*.
7. A diffuser attachment with three adjustable air volumes and a deep bowl design to gently gather your curls and waves, drying them in their natural pattern, reducing frizz, and increasing definition AND shine.
It's compatible with diffusers with a diameter of 1.73-1.77 inches — and reviewers note that this even works with a Dyson Airwrap!
Promising review: "This was the best purchase I’ve ever made! I’ve had this diffuser for several months now and it’s completely changed my hair routine. It works so well at drying and plumping my curls without making them frizzy. It’s been a lifesaver. All I need is a spray bottle full of water, a little product, and this diffuser (& my Xtava hair dryer) and I’m set. I use the warm setting on low and it’s perfect. I can go up to four days without washing my curly hair now because of this new hair routine. My hair is so happy and has never looked better!! Only issue is it takes up a lot of space in my suitcase, but it’s worth it. I won’t travel without it." —Sarah Yardley
Promising review: "I so love this diffuser! I've searched everywhere for a diffuser that's big and will work right on my hair. I washed my hair, used my products, then used the blow-dryer. My curls were so defined and popping! I will recommend this to anyone!" –M.D
Get it from Amazon for $18.99 (available in six colors).
8. A nongreasy eye cream designed to deflate your under eye bags, hydrate your delicate skin, reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, and brighten your under eyes, thanks to a blend of aloe, rosehip seed oil, and vitamins C & E.
Promising review: "This is the best product I've bought in years!!!! I read the reviews and decided to take a chance. I'm more than impressed. I bought it to use as eye cream. However, I decided to put it on my face when I noticed how it felt under my eyes. This product was better than any moisturizer I've owned in the last ten years. It's worth the money!!! I had a dry patch on my face from eczema and it went away after I applied this product. This is the first time I used LilyAna and I was simply searching for an eye cream. I read the reviews and decided to give it a try. I promise this is the best investment I've made in years. It's worth trying. I never write long reviews, but this product is amazing." —Mrs J
Promising review: "I have been using this daily for about eight months now. I am 60 years old. It reduced the puffiness and bags under my eyes. I am Sicilian and had dark circles. It has brightened up my eye area. I am very surprised as I have paid much more for eye creams that have done so much less. I recently had pre-cancerous cells removed at the bridge of my nose. After healing, I was left with a dark scar. The dermatologist told me that it would heal over time. Since I began to apply this eye cream, the mark has almost disappeared entirely. I shop constantly from Amazon. This is the first time that I have taken the time to write a review. That's how impressed I am with this product. If you decide to purchase this, you won't be sorry." —Lynda M.
Get it from Amazon for $22.99.
9. La Roche-Posay Cicaplast Baume, a repairing balm that'll be your new BFF if you've ever dealt with irritated skin. Over-exfoliated your face? Got a peel but went too far? Skin way too dry and nothing is helping? Tried a new mask that did *not* turn out well? This balm has your back.
This cream is formulated with panthenol to soothe rough skin, shea butter to visibly decrease signs of irritation, and glycerin for hydration. And it's free of parabens, fragrance, and lanolin!
Promising review: "I wish I could give this a gazillion stars! My dry and dehydrated face absolutely loves this stuff. It has made my skin look so much more supple and youthful, and it calmed down some weird breakouts on my face that I'd been dealing with for a while. I apply it morning and night. This is the best beauty-related purchase I've made in a good 20 years. I will buy this for as long as I live. The price is so friendly, too! I LOVE THIS!! Miracle product!" —Amazon Customer
Promising review: "I used this after an overzealous microdermabrasion facial left part of my face scraped raw. Seriously, it looked like I had face planted on concrete. And I am a slow healer. After tons of frantic internet research, I stumbled upon this cream. It accelerated the healing process to a few days and without scars or complications. Love the cream." —Ljtrue
Get it from Amazon for $17.99.
10. A 2-in-1 Kiss eyeliner that's actually *also* false eyelash glue, so you can get out the door in way less time — just line with the easy-to-draw felt tip, let the glue get tacky, and stick those falsies on!
If you're looking for falsies, people *love* (I'm sure you've seen them on TikTok) the Ardell wispies — you can get them from Amazon for $9.99. Some people cut them apart for that ~individual~ look.
Promising review: "Best product I've discovered in years. Cut my getting ready time in half." —Sequoia Burge
Promising review: "This stuff is amazing! Goes on just like an eyeliner but holds the lashes all day. I clean houses and I sweat and I put my lashes on at 8:30am and at 11:45 p.m., they were still glued on really well. I would say use some oil free makeup remover on a Q-tip and run it over the band of the lashes before removing because 14 hours later they will still be glued on really well. But doing that they came off easily. Best money I ever spent." —Shannon alaniz
Get the liner from Amazon for $8.66.
11. Radha rosehip oil to not only soften skin and lock in moisture (just like other oils), but also help reduce redness and breakouts, thanks to the rich blend of vitamins A, C, and E, fatty acids and anti-inflammatory antioxidants.
You can learn more about the skincare benefits of rosehip oil at the Cleveland Clinic.
Promising review: "This is the best beauty purchase I’ve ever made. I have dry, sensitive skin and nothing I bought worked. It either didn’t moisturize or left me with a breakout. I’ve tried everything from $150 creams to drugstore products and this is the best by far. Evened out my skin tone and cleared up my dry patches. It also makes my skin look younger. I use it every night before bed. It’s cliche but when I woke up the first morning after using it I was honestly shocked by the difference when I looked in the mirror. Weird but true." —NikkiD
Promising review: "I am super busy and not one to ever write reviews, but based on my results with this product I had to take the time. I am so impressed with the softness and glow the next morning. In addition I get adult acne and the healing process as well as reduction of previous scaring has been amazing. Today someone commented, 'You look great...what are you doing???' For a product under $20 you can't go wrong, worth every penny." —Max Jenkinson
Get it from Amazon for $14.95.
12. E.l.f. Poreless Putty primer, which is infused with squalene to hydrate, smooth over skin for a seamless finish, and hold onto makeup for all-day staying power. You mayyyy have seen this all over TikTok, and the reviews back up the hype!
Promising review: "I've tried so many, this is a keeper. It’s extremely light. Has a mousse-like texture. Has a light fresh scent. It really preps my skin for foundation. I have dry skin. This looks like skin but NOT flat or dry. Makes foundation look like it should. 👍🏼 Best $5 spent." —J_Kelsea
Promising review: "Normally my makeup goes on great, but then once it dries it's super crusty and shows my pores, but this made everything so smooth and my skin has never looked so healthy. Even after I took my makeup off my skin felt moisturized which is a hard thing to do with my dry skin. I saw the hype all over social media about this primer and I never believed it, but finally decided to take the plunge and test it out and now I'll never go with out it." —Taylor Kessinger
Get it from Amazon for $9 (also available in matte, luminous, and acne-fighting formulations).
13. A tinting kit to match your brows to your hair or just make them seem more filled-in and darker — especially if you don't feel like doing them every day.
This is the reviewer's brows before, during, and then after the tint, btw! Reviewers say the tint lasts anywhere from several days to several weeks so YMMV!
Promising review: "Best thing I've ever purchased. OBSESSED. I have very blonde eyebrows and have been using eyebrow pencils to color them in for years. It’s so annoying and time consuming. I’ve been wanting to get them microbladed for so long but didn’t want to spend the money on it. I was nervous at first but it’s so easy. I put Vaseline around my eyebrows so I don’t get color outside of them. I also found out the first time that I did this that a little goes a long way. The first time, I only used half a capsule, but even that was a lot. The second time, I used a quarter of a capsule and I didn’t use all of that either. I used an angled eye shadow brush to apply it and make the shape that I wanted. I left it on for about a minute and a half then took it off. If I needed to fix any spots I just put more on for about 30 more seconds. Super simple and easy. It will look a little dark at first, but it fades in a few days. Best of all, I was able to wait a month to apply again. It does start fading a bit so I have to color in a few spots in the morning but it’s super fast to do that. To make it last longer, I didn’t scrub my eyebrows when washing my face or let any oil or lotion really get on them. Save yourself the money and buy this. Don’t get your eyebrows microbladed or waste your time in the morning filling them in anymore." —Marina
Get it from Amazon for $13.95+ (available in four colors).
14. SoCozy curl conditioning spray, which was designed with kiddos' curls in mind, but works for reviewers of all ages! This leave-in conditioner moisturizes and helps improve curl definition and elasticity with just a few quick spritzes, which is great for impatient kids *and* grownups with limited time.
Check out a TikTok of the SoCozy Curl Spray in action. Reviewers say this spray will leave wavy or curly hair (from 2a–4c hair) shiny, soft, and bouncy. And it's free from parabens, sulfates, phthalates, synthetic colors or dyes, propylene glycol, gluten, wheat, and nuts! And btw, SoCozy also makes a reviewer-loved detangling spray.
Promising review: "I feel like I have tried every product in the market for detangling curly hair on my 2-year old daughter. This is the BEST purchase and product ever!! I spray to detangle after bath at night and then re-spray the next morning before school after getting dressed. It reworks its magic the second time around and she arrives home with her hair so bouncy and the curls are so tame!!" —BK
Promising review: "This is the BEST product EVER! I will never use another hair detangler ever again. We use this product daily in my house, my daughter, my son, and me. Both of us girls have long and thick curly hair, and it allows us to brush through our hair with no problems! And my son mostly uses it to style his hair before gel, and because it smells so good! We tried a few products from Walmart, Ulta, and Target, and nothing was good enough. This is now on my Subscribe & Save every month!" —Tamira McLelland
Get it from Amazon for $9.69 (also available in multipacks).
15. Schick Silk Touch-Up Multipurpose Tool to not only shape eyebrows and trim/remove facial hairs, but also exfoliate skin as a dermaplane (have you watched as many dermaplane facial vids as I have??) to reveal soft, glowy skin free of those dead skin cells that were just hanging around.
Promising review: "Best beauty product I’ve ever bought! Finally tried this out and changed my life! Absolutely love them! Easy to use and great price. I was worried about it irritating my skin but had no issues." —Shae Saxton
Promising review: "Super easy and satisfying to use, you’re literally scraping all of the peach fuzz and dead skin off your face. The first photo shows all of the stuff that this product took off my face, and the second two photos are the before and after I used this product. My face is glowing and incredibly soft now. Highly recommend." —Jane
Get a pack of three from Amazon for $5.94.
16. A flat-top oval brush (also TikTok-approved!) that has tightly-packed, but super-soft fibers to seamlessly blend your products, from foundation to concealer, for an airbrushed finish.
This one works with liquids, powders, and creams, and is beloved by over 25,000 5-star reviewers.
Promising review: "Best thing I've brought! Worth the money" —Dmike
Promising review: "I would buy this 10 times over! Super soft on my skin yet very efficient at blending foundation. I used 1/3 of the amount of product as opposed to a traditional foundation brush or even beauty blender. I love this and recommended very highly!" —Missy Lynn
Get it from Amazon for $9.99 (available in seven colors).
17. A pack of Avarelle pimple patches formulated with tea tree oil and calendula oil (to heal and shrink zits faster overnight). AND they come in two sizes — classic circular patches & large, square patches so you can easily treat and shrink clusters of pimples all at once.
A lot of reviewers who have also tried Cosrx and Nexcare patches prefer these!
Promising review: "I’ve tried so many brands of pimple spots, and these are hands-down the best on the market. Last night, I put these on a few acne problems (a small cyst, a whitehead, and a pimple I shouldn’t have picked and has been a bump for about three weeks now.) I just woke up and am writing this review in disbelief. THEY'RE FLAT! Gone! All of them! I could cry I’m so happy. The packaging is also ideal, because it allows you to conveniently and easily peel the stickers off without stretching them out or folding them back on themselves. Do yourself and your complexion a huge favor! Have these on hand for a stubborn zit when you really need help. Make sure you apply them to completely clean and dry skin." —Caitlyn
Promising review: "I usually never write reviews...but these things are LITERALLY THE BEST THINGS IVE EVER BOUGHT. Work amazing. Wore 'em to bed for eight hours and took them off the next morning and my pimples were barley there anymore. Love this product." —Amazon Customer

18. Frank Body's original coffee scrub with an exfoliating blend of coffee grinds (duh), sea salt, sweet almond oil, and vitamin E to soften skin and help fight breakouts without over-drying or feeling too harsh.
Promising review: "Best product I’ve bought! Literally my go-to for everything, I struggle with really bad psoriasis and the coffee body scrub gets rid of it every single time without fail and leaves my skin so soft and glowing, no product I’d ever recommend over this one! Have bought this so many times over the past few years and has never let me down! :)" —Leah M.
Get it from Frank Body for $20 or Amazon for $19.95.
Frank Body is a woman co-owned company based in Melbourne, Australia — and all of their products are made there too!
19. Hard as Hoof nail-strengthening cream that'll help prevent splitting, peeling, and cracking *and* conditions cuticles to help your nails grow longer and stronger than ever.
Promising review: "Always looking for the perfect cuticle cream and this is it. No need to look any further. The texture is lovely and this product is the best I’ve ever bought. Look no further, this is the one!! Definite results. Great price." —Evelyn Owens
Promising review: "Love this product! It revived my thin peeling nails in one month! I’m a crafter. I make my living at home making my creations. My hands get messy so often I wash my hands all the time. And I’m always peeling labels and stickers of of things. My nails could no longer peel back any stickers or they wold split like thin paper. This product revived my poor nails in one month! Now my nails are not very only strong but also longer and even whiter!! It also helped my cuticles! I applied twice a day for about two weeks, then once a day for the next two weeks. Now I apply it every other day and my nails are stronger then ever! LOVE this product! It’s smooth and creamy type of product. Very thick which is nice! Has a light tropical coconut smell which I love. Beautiful jar. Overall A+ product! If your nails are weak and peeling GET THIS NOW! You won’t regret it!!" —Lauren
Get it from Amazon for $7.80.
20. Paula's Choice 2% BHA liquid exfoliant (all of your favorite skincare TikTokers swear by it) that'll unclog pores, banishe dead skin cells, and even out skin tone. It even works on my very allergy-prone sensitive skin. A whopping 70 reviewers used the word "miracle."
I use this exfoliator a few times a week (I follow a skin cycling routine) and I'm in loooove. The formula isn't too hard with my sensitive skin (and I've been known to over-react to other anti-acne products with salicylic acid in them) but it helps keep my skin soft, clear, and glowy. It's the only product that has *ever* kept the pores on my nose noncongested. Put away the harsh blackhead strips and try this instead!
Promising review: "Best purchase ever! I bought this item when I ran out of the very expensive toner I generally use. Boy, have I been wasting money. This lotion is magnificent!!! I decided to use it as a toner and I am so happy I made that decision. This is the best toner I have ever used! It leaves my skin smooth, looking radiant, and youthful. And although I rarely ever have problems with my skin; with this product, I never will have problems. Run, don't walk to get this item." —Michel-Ange Chevry
Promising review: "This stuff should be called a miracle in a bottle. When I use it on my (pretty dry) skin, it transforms it from congested, irritated, and bright red to calm, clear, and glowing overnight. Most of the people reviewing this are using it incorrectly. It's an acid exfoliator. That means you should use it once a week, twice at the most (if your skin is oily and needs a lot of work.) Also, it should never be used during the daytime. BHA, or salicylic acid, interacts terribly with the sun. If you absolutely must put it on in the morning, follow it up with heavy SPF, but I wouldn't do it. This stuff is like anything else — it only works if you know how to do it properly." —Audrey Brock
Get it from Amazon for $34.
21. A waterproof, smudge-resistant eyeliner stamp with two sides: a triangular stamp on one end and a felt-tip eyeliner on the other to create the perfect winged liner look in no time flat, i.e., you'll never be late again!
Promising review: "I loved the product. I usually take 15 minutes to do my eyeliner perfectly for my dance recitals which include cleaning and re-doing multiple times. But with this eyeliner, I took only five mins to do it in a single go. It lasted really long even in burning hot weather. It looked so beautiful even from a long distance. I loved the product. It's a must-have for all those who love eye makeup." —rasu
Promising review: "This product is AMAZING!!! Best investment I've made all year! It lasted through multiple times of me rubbing my eyes (because I always do when I wear makeup) and goes on so easy!! If you love doing cat eye I cannot recommend this enough!!" —April
Promising review: "Literally the best thing I've ever bought. I've never been able to do wings but this makes things SO much easier!!" —NiintendoVii
Get a two-pack from Amazon (one for your left eye, one for your right) for $14.97 (available in three sizes).

22. A super bitter-tasting clear polish that'll help you finally quit that nail-biting habit so your fingernails can grow long and strong. Time to treat yourself to an at-home manicure!
It's totally harmless *and* shine-free, so it won't look like anything's on your nails. It's also great to help kids stop sucking on their thumbs.
Promising review: "My 4-year-old daughter has been sucking her thumb before she turned 1. I didn’t know any effective way to stop her from sucking her thumb and our pediatrician couldn’t offer any solution, either. I happened to read about this product one day and decided to give it a try. We applied the nail polish once a week for three weeks in a row. She has now stopped her thumb sucking completely. The first two weeks she seemed a bit more fussy and insecure but she is a changed person now. I highly recommend it. The best money I’ve ever spent!!!" —CLW
Get it from Amazon for $15.50.
23. A Revlon one-step drying brush (now with an upgraded motor) with a unique oval-shaped barrel so you can get super close to your scalp for smooth hair and majorly boosted volume at the roots, without having to juggle a brush and blow-dryer.
Promising review: "Excellent brush. I bought it because my shoulder was hurt and I couldn't use the regular hair dryer because I had to use both hands. The best purchase I've ever made." —Luz Erika
Promising review: "I never write product reviews, but this brush is amazing! I have curly/wavy hair that is past my shoulders, but very fine. If I don't blow dry and straighten it right away it gets very curly and frizzy and has always been a pain to blow-dry and flat iron. I have never been very good at blow-drying with a round brush and have always relied on the flat iron to get my hair smooth after drying. With this brush, I can let my hair air dry for a bit, and then use this, and I don't need to use the flat iron at all. My hair looks so full and bouncy that several people have asked me if I just got my hair done. Honestly, with this brush, it looks better than when my hairdresser blow dries! It is so easy to use and takes way less time to do than blow drying. I haven't tried from wet wet, but today I only let it dry a bit and then used the brush and it was still fast. My only complaint is that the handle is a little big and hard to hold on to, but that is fairly minor. Also, I was worried about it getting tangled in my hair, but so far I have been able to wrap my hair around the brush and not have any issues getting the brush out. I love it!" —Bostonchick
Get it from Amazon for $39.87.
While some reviewers with curl types 4a–c like the oval brush, if you're looking for something to blow out tighter curls or coils, try the Revlon One-Step *paddle* brush, which is designed with curlier hair in mind! You can get it from Amazon for $39.99. Reviewers also say it's the best thing they've ever bought.
24. A foot-filing rasp that'll undo years of callus buildup in mere MINUTES. No waiting for intense creams to do their work, no getting pedicure after pedicure — if you want to see results ASAP, you'll think it's ~grate~.
Promising review: "I have BAD feet. Like genetically bad. I have tried EVERYTHING. I’ve spent an excessive amount of money on foot masks, foot scrubs, pedicures, pumice stones, foot files, etc. Nothing worked. This fixed my feet in five minutes. I was actually in shock. I haven’t had 'soft' feet in years. I literally feel like I have new feet. Best $10 I ever spent." —Hdb
Get it from Amazon for $9.95.
25. A reusable Revlon oil-absorbing roller stick with a ball made of volcanic stone that sucks the excess shine right off your face. Just pop it out and give it a wash once in a while and you can reuse it over and over and over again!
Promising review: "Best purchase I have ever made. Oily skin type people definitely need this. Life changing." —Estefania Barros
Promising review: "This... this! I don't know what sort of sorcery this is, but this thing totally works, and it's freaking me out! I tested it by standing outside for a few mins (I live in the South, very humid) and then came back inside and rolled it along my nose. Sucked that oil right up!! I cannot believe I have been wasting money on blotting paper when this was out there (and reusable)! Totally buying some for my sister and friends. If you're on the fence about it, JUST BUY IT!" —Stellar
Get it from Amazon for $13.40.
Btw, now the roller comes in a rose quartz version you can store in the fridge for a soothing face massage!
26. Essence's Lash Princess mascara, which over *200,000* 5-star reviewers swear by for dramatic length and volume *without* clumps, thanks to the flake- and gob-free formula and cone-shaped brush.
Promising review: "My favorite find of 2022. This is the best mascara I’ve tried! Great coverage, smudge proof and last all day long. I always get compliments on my lashes when I wear this (I don’t wear it daily because I’m lazy). Beautiful color on this and I love the application wand. Will definitely be buying again!" —Strickley Sara
Promising review: "After using Lights, Camera, Lashes by Tarte ($23) for the past year, I got tired of breaking the bank over mascara. My sister suggested Essence Lash Princess False Lash Effect and I IMMEDIATELY fell in love. It provides dramatic length and great volume. I can honestly say I can’t stop looking at my eyelashes in the mirror every single day because of how awesome they look. Also, it is very long wearing. I go from an eight-hour work day right to the gym and sweat like crazy...and this stuff doesn’t budge! I love it!!" —Carrie E. Miller

27. Cosrx’s snail mucin repairing essence that may seem like it would give you the ick, but is totally worth adding to your routine. No snail-like results here: Just pat it in the evening, and you’ll be appreciating the moisture boost right away. Plus reviewers say it helps with acne, inflammation, peeling, fine lines, and even eczema!
I loooove this essence for whenever I need an added boost of hydration. It absorbs into the skin beautifully!
Promising review: "Light moisturizing that absorbs perfectly into my skin, no irritation at all. Doesn't clog pores. It lasts months and is the best product I've ever bought." —Isaac Worley
Promising review: "If you can get over the ick factor of snail mucin -it is deeply hydrating and helps with hyperpigmentation and acne. Calms inflammation and redness. If you’re having flaky, dry skin from eczema or reactions to retinol use-this helps repair your skin barrier and keep your skin supple. It is a gentle occlusive and seals in moisture. Everyone’s skin is different. What works for me may not work for you. But I swear by the essence to help my reactive skin, repair the skin barrier, and helps with my eczema. I will use it forever." —Connie

28. The Dyson's Air Wrap, a six-in-one hair dryer and styler that's basically like magic (if you've seen the TikToks, you know). It comes with a pre-styling dryer, two smoothing brushes, and two sizes of curling barrels — all which use hot air to dry *and* style your hair in one. With no damage in sight!
Promising review: "Best gift I’ve ever received! This is my first review on any product I have which shows how much I LOVE it. It is so easy and QUICK use. My hair looks flawless every single time ( better than walking out of the salon). The shine and bounce is on another level and my curls last up to three days and that’s only because I have to wash my hair by that day." —riola5
Promising review: "The best thing I've ever bought!! I worried this would be a regret purchase! I don't usually splurge on things like this.... BUT I am so glad I did. Best purchase ever!" —BHCourt
Promising review: "After looking at the air wrap for over a year, I finally bought it. I have thick type 4b hair and the firm brush attachment made blowing out my hair so easy. I noticed that my roots were still a little damp so I used the dryer attachment and my roots were dry in no time. I am excited to try out the curling features on day old hair." —acm824

29. A curling iron with five interchangeable barrels to create tons and tons and tons of different curl patterns and hairstyles without having to buy or store five separate tools. They range from a tapered wand (.3-.75 inches) to a 1.25 inch clamped curling iron so you can customize your look!
Aaaaand it has nine temperature options, from 250-410°F, and heat up in just 30 SECONDS so you can get out the door faster.
Promising review: "I have been looking for a good curling iron for awhile now and nothing seemed to have my hair stay curled for even 30 minutes. I always was disappointed therefore I just gave up on curling my hair. I came upon this on amazon and saw how many good reviews it has received and thought I’d give it a try! First off I got it the SAME DAY! How awesome is that! Second of all, I curled my hair and it LASTED THREE days! Not even kidding, my husband would ask me if I touched it up I said nope, nothing I was just in bed all day.. and third of all I love how fast it curls as well, you don’t have to wait forever! Best purchase I’ve made I’m so happy!" —snezhana

30. Elizabeth Mott's cult favorite Thank Me Later eyeshadow primer to keep your favorite eye makeup look on lock all day AND all night — *no* creasing. That's right, you will NOT have to reapply before your evening plans.
Promising review: "It took me years, but I've found the perfect primer. Best purchase I’ve made in years and I now subscribe to assure that I have this product on hand. My makeup doesn’t budge all day, even when I’m sweating. I’ve used other primers but this one disappears and doesn’t pill up. It’s sheer so I can have confidence in those days I wear next to nothing foundation. I have combination skin and I’ve never had a breakout. Love, love, love this primer." —KW
Promising review: "So let me start by saying I have used nearly every eyeshadow primer available. From high end to low. Mac, Lorac, Urban Decay...they don't hold a candle to Thank Me Later. I have very oily skin. Using this primer, shadow lasts a full eight hours or more. I could get maybe five or six out of the other brands, if I'm lucky. I got this as a sample in my Ipsy bag, and I had to buy the full-size product straight away! I couldn't be happier with my purchase. Thank you, Elizabeth Mott, for finally making a primer that lasts! I love this stuff!" —Melissa Mae

31. Laneige's fan-favorite lip sleeping mask with coconut oil and shea and murumuru seed butters to give your lips a dose of hydration and softness. And yes, it's a sleeping mask, but the gorgeous gloss finish will make you want to slather it on in the daytime too.
I use this lip mask all the time! If I have severely dry lips, I'll reach for my Aquaphor lip repair (also a holy grail), but for everyday use, this mask is great — I even use it in the daytime too! The shine is pretty enough for Zoom meetings too!
Promising review: "BEST PURCHASE! I am pretty sure I have postpartum chapped/dry lips because of breastfeeding. I never had this issue of having to deal with chapped lips. I literally tried lip scrubs, chapsticks, Vaseline even and nothing worked, but I am gonna be honestly the first time I used this product I literally saw instant results overnight! I know I can be on a little pricey side, but if you want to get your chapped/dry lips taken care of PLEASE buy this product it’s HANDS DOWN BEST!!!" —Abdullah S.
