1. L'Oreal Rouge Signature Matte Color Ink is one of the most comfortable liquid lipsticks I've *personally* ever tried, because it feels crazy lightweight (like a tint or stain!), doesn't feel drying, and its pointed applicator makes it easy to get super precise with your lines.
2. Chapstick Total Hydration Conditioning Lip Scrubs ensure your pout stays healthy, hydrated, and free of cracks with nourishing oils and butters, as well as sugar crystals for oh-so-gentle exfoliation.
3. Mighty Patches answer your pimple anxieties with their special hydrocolloid material that draws out all of the gross (but oddly satisfying) pus and other impurities inside whitehead-showing pimples — stick 'em on those suckers and watch them deflate before your very eyes!
4. Bliss Rose Gold Rescue Soothing Toner is the 'gram-worthy face mist your dried-out skin craves — just imagine: it's 3 p.m., your face is looking as sleepy as your brain feels, and voila, a gentle, fine stream of rosewater and collodial gold wakes you up, and you're back at it!
5. Maybelline Facestudio Master Chrome Metallic Highlighter imparts a gorrrrrgeous gold (or rose gold! or topaz!) highlight with a subtle glitter effect that's densely packed so you don't experience any messy fallout — just jaw-dropping cheekbones!
6. E.l.f. Cosmetics Hello Hydration! Face Cream plumps up your skin in record time with good-for-you ingredients including hyaluronic acid, niacinamide, squalane, Vitamin B5, and peptides for a packed formula that helps improve elasticity, promote collagen, and maintain a baby-soft texture that even cold weather can't break down.
7. My Skin Mentor Dr. G Brightening Peeling Gel is a physical exfoliatior that flippin' works — the gel instantly forms into little balls of cellulose that slough off way more dead skin cells and surface debris than you thought possible for a smoother, brighter (hello, vitamins C and E!) complexion.
8. John Frieda Frizz Ease Secret Weapon Touch-Up Crème keeps frizz, static, and flyaways (oh my!) under control and gives locks a lightweight, glossy coat for a healthy shine you can't fake — and it even helps prevent beanie hair, which cold weather peeps probably all have at this point.
9. Vogue Effects Eyeliner Stamp shaves off precious minutes spent trying to draw perfect cat eyes and also comes with a liner on the other side, because we're all about hacks that make sleepy mornings a little more bearable.
10. Jergens Wet Skin Moisturizer is perfect for lazy people who hate feeling sticky and waiting for moisturizer to dry (hello, me!) — you apply this while your skin is *still wet* and wait a few minutes for it to sink it, so by the time you're ready to collapse into bed your bod is feeling as silky as can be!
11. Neutrogena Anti-Residue Shampoo sweeps away all of that heavy, scalp-clogging buildup you've accumulated since your last wash (from styling products or otherwise) and boosts volume — all without irritating your scalp or stripping your hair of its natural oils, win!
12. Tonymoly Liptone Lip Care Sticks contain shea butter, coconut oil, camellia oil, rosehip oil, manuka honey, and other ingredients intended to keep your lips soft, no matter what the elements hurl your way.
13. Sweet Chef Fresh Pressed Sheet Masks amp up your skincare routine with an extra dose of pore-smoothing, hydration, and brightening, depending on what your skin needs — plus, how cute are those little illustrations?? #selfieapproved
14. A'Pieu Madecassoside Cream really does it all as far as moisturizers go — it contains 40% centella asiatica leaf water and 0.1% madecassoside* to soothe irritated skin and help repair skin damage, while good 'ol niacinamide brightens, witch hazel extract keeps skin looking clear, and lactic acid smooths and plumps skin — whew, that's a mouthful, but in the best, skin-pleasing way.
15. Nip + Fab Glycolic Fix Daily Cleansing Pads tackle breakouts with just a few swipes of its resurfacing abilities, made up of 2.8% glycolic acid, hyaluronic acid, and witch hazel.
16. Pacifica Beauty Super Flower Rapid Response Face Oil earns an A+ in nourishment with a super potent blend of blue tansy oil and rose oil (which is rich in antioxidants and fatty acids!) that protects your skin against redness and irritation all winter long — yes, it's essentially a skin superhero!
17. Aveeno Positively Radiant Overnight Hydrating Facial locks in moisture while you snooze and repairs skin cells with a safe-for-sensitive formula that's oil-free, non-comedogenic, and hypoallergenic — thanks to a soy complex and hyaluronic acid, you can wake up to supple, lit-from-within skin.
18. La Roche-Posay Toleriane Hydrating Gentle Cleanser is a no-fuss daily face wash that helps your skin retain the moisture it needs, while still removing every bit of makeup and dirt — it's very dependable, as you can probably tell.
19. The Ordinary AHA 30% + BHA 2% Peeling Solution lets you swap an expensive facial for an at-home remedy that really, truly works — AHAs like glycolic, salicylic, and citric acid dramatically exfoliate your skin, control excess oil (which also prevents future breakouts), and improves the overall look of your skin. Hunny, you're looking stunning!
20. A'Pieu Milk Sheet Masks are known to banish Sunday scaries, brighten complexions, douse your skin in comforting hydration, and keep your skin glowing — so kick back and slap one of these bbs on!
21. Wet Brush Original Detangler is made with ~IntelliFlex bristles~ that detangle all hair types, wet or dry without — I repeat WITHOUT — pulling or tugging. With all of that nonexistent force you're using, there's way fewer chances of experiencing breakage and split ends!!
22. Essie Gel Couture Nail Polish gives ya bold color with the strength and long-lasting nature of a gel manicure without the hefty price tag of a salon manicure or the need for LED light curing — bye, party-ruining chipping!
23. Nügg Face Mask Glow Kit targets and remedies every issue your face/environment/stress levels decide to bring into play — and each mask has enough goodness to last more than once!
24. The Body Shop Tea Tree Night Lotion is formulated with Community Fair Trade tea tree oil grown in the foothills of Mount Kenya and controls excess production of oil and sebum on blemish-prone skin. In other words: pimples, you've met your match.
