12. A Shiseido sunscreen that'll become one of your holy grails because not only does it boast SPF 50+ but it's also *free of oxybenzone and octinoxate* (the ingredients Hawaii banned!). The ocean-friendly sunscreen is also invisible due to its SynchoShield tech — a lightweight, protective veil that's strengthened by heat, water, and sweat. This one literally goes up and beyond!
13. These biodegradable Busy Beauty Showerless Body Wipes for days when you have no time to shower after a gym session, you're running late in the morning, or you have a medical condition that makes daily showering difficult. Swipe, wipe, and move!

19. A gentle AHA exfoliating mask you can custom blend at home to your liking — just add water (use more to create a mask and less to use as a clay cleanser). Even more unusual is it uses flower acids, green apple, and malic acid to brighten dark spots and uncover the luminous skin underneath. Be your own cosmetologist!
20. An Urban Decay setting spray — def a must-have for those who live in cities where you're exposed to pollution 24/7 (that can't be great for your skin, I daresay).

The cream is known as "shape memory cream," so it'll cling to skin and absorb easily. And it's light enough to be used as a daytime moisturizer for dry skin. Multi-tasking for the win!
28. A Glow Recipe lip balm because it works overtime as a three-in-one scrub-balm fusion that'll leave you with lips so lovely your crush won't be able to resist them.
