EADEM’s high-shine lip balm is packed with superstar ingredients like AHAs, enzymes, African mongongo butter and collagen-boosting peptides to exfoliate, plump and nourish. The shades were inspired by co-founder Marie’s struggle to find colors that enhanced (not masked) her dual-toned lips.

Attract and entice with Ellis Brooklyn’s Apple Love, Vanilla Milk and Myth eau de parfums. I love gifting fragrance sets over the holidays, and this trio of rollerballs, featuring one fruity, one sweet and one sexy scent, is sure to be a crowd-pleaser.

This viral blush-duo is a consistent best-seller at Sephora, and it’s not hard to see why. It features both a powder and cream blush, the shade range is hard to beat and each color is vibrant and glowy. For the fall and winter months, we’re loving She’s Wanted (shown here), a rich berry hue that imparts a natural-looking, just-walked-in-from-the-cold flush.

Actress, comedian, author and mom Jenny Slate says this brightening serum from RANAVAT makes her “feel beautiful.” Made with a trio of Ayurvedic botanicals, it boosts luminosity instantly and decreases the appearance of hyperpigmentation over time, thanks to “miracle elixir” saffron, turmeric and ashwagandha.

Visibly reduce lines, seal in moisture and impart a dewy glow with Tatcha’s (now refillable!) The Dewy Skin Cream. It’s not just a favorite of Bridgerton‘s Nicola Coughlan; shoppers across generations praise the luxurious cream for hydrating, plumping and smoothing skin. “My skin looks better now at 55 years old since using this product than it did at 25!!” one shopper raves.

Count Olympic gold medalist Suni Lee and influencers Meredith Duxbury and Mikayla Nogueira as fans of LYS Beauty’s bronzer stick. (It also has over a billion views on TikTok.) Made with antioxidants like rosehip oil and green tea, the clean, talc-free and buildable formula visibly sculpts, defines and livens up every complexion. Choose from seven warm hues.

Formulated with a blend of botanical oils and CoQ10, this facial oil absorbs easily to supply moisture, vitamins, fatty acids and antioxidants—everything you need to keep dry winter skin at bay.

Made for areas of the body that would benefit from weekly moderate-to-intense physical exfoliation, the Buffing Bar is good for keratosis pilaris (“KP”), stubborn ingrown hairs and rough, bumpy skin texture. Watch as dead skin and excess keratin are thoroughly sloughed away, releasing trapped hairs and revealing the soft, newer skin below after each use.

Reverse hair damage of all kinds in just four minutes with this leave-in treatment that makes anyone who uses it an instant diehard fan. (Shoppers call it the most effective hair mask and “worth every penny.”) Using K18’s patented K18peptide, the formula works deep inside the fiber of the hairs at a molecular level to repair and reconnect damaged bonds.

Tower 28’s talc-free pressed powder makes any base transfer-proof and sweat-resistant in one touch. A gentler alternative to setting spray, it’s alcohol-free, non-drying, and infused with hydrating squalane for a never-flat, modern matte finish that lasts. Plus, it’s non-irritating, derm-approved, clinically proven, hypoallergenic and abides by the National Eczema Association Seal of Acceptance.

Rêve is, as the brand describes it, “a lush and dreamy gourmand fragrance designed to capture a rush of you.” Perfect for those sweet fragrance lovers, the top-to-bottom makeup of Rêve consists of notes of buttercream, plum butter, toasted almond, iris, sandalwood and bases of ambrette and ambrox. (For a more warm and woodsy scent, try Glossier’s new Doux fragrance; also, the classic and spicy Glossier You truly doesn’t smell bad on anyone.)

Even for eye makeup amateurs (my hand is raised), Urban Decay’s eyeliner pencils are a must-have—in seconds, you can create any eye-catching look in one easy step. Plus, the gel pencils glide on so smoothly, stay put and are waterproof.

Looking for an eye cream that will depuff and brighten the eye area after one use? Look no further. Kiehl’s hydrating eye treatment is made with avocado oil, beta-carotene and shea butter to improve the look and feel of under-eye texture and dry fine lines through all-day hydration.

Stop looking—we found the perfect stocking stuffer. Gisou’s Honey Gloss & Go Set includes two full-size best-sellers. The Honey Infused Hair Oil will hydrate hair, tame frizz and leave behind a festive, glossy shine. The Honey Infused Lip Oil Watermelon Sugar gives kissable, hydrated, glossy lips thanks to a 97 percent natural, nourishing formula.

I’ve yet to find anyone who doesn’t love this super lightweight foundation that shoppers say is the closest makeup comes to to looking like a second skin. We love its extensive shade range, buildable medium coverage and how it camouflages the appearance of redness and discoloration without settling cakey and heavy.
19 / 20
This lightweight tool will curl, create waves and straighten every strand with a unique air burst function that reduces hair’s exposure to heat and helps prevent damage as you style.

It can be hard to justify buying an expensive moisturizer when there are so many great drugstore options, but I make an exception when Caudalie is on sale. The Rich Cream is silky and pillowy and packed with bio-ceramides and hyaluronic acid, so skin is hydrated and looks radiant at all times.
