Supergoop! Everyday SPF Play Kit ($50)
The skin-care aficionados among us know SPF is a non-negotiable part of a solid routine. This set from Supergoop! includes four SPF options for face, body and lips.
Chanel La Crème Main ($55)
The most darling hand cream on the market, this chic offering is more than what meets the eye. According to Chanel, “the formula leaves skin 40% more protected and 45% more hydrated. Plus, nail strength is improved significantly, by 70%.”

Shani Darden by Déesse PRO LED Light Mask ($1,900)

111SKIN Jetsetter Wallet ($30)
A celebrity favorite, these sleek, never-slippery under-eye masks get to work quickly to noticeably de-puff, brighten and turn back the clock on tired eyes. This trio is housed in a thin pouch, perfect for the one who’s always on-the-go.
COSRX Advanced Snail Mucin Power Sheet Mask ($25 for 10)
Snail mucin is the latest “it” ingredient in skin care. Why? To start, it naturally contains glycoproteins, hyaluronic acid, glycolic acid, enzymes, and peptides, to name a few. These skin-hugging sheet masks are saturated with the skin-boosting ingredient for an at-home facial at a price you can’t beat.
Slip Silk Pillowcase ($89)
We can’t think of a skin-care devotee who wouldn’t appreciate a silk pillowcase like this one. Not only do silk pillowcases boost your routine by not absorbing your skin-care products like cotton ones do, their smooth, no-tug surface also help prevent the formation of lines and wrinkles.

Halo Couture Blend-Ins (Starting at $400)
Anyone who’s struggling with thinning hair or a too-short cut would cherish high-quality clip-in extensions any day of the week. Unlike any other clip-in on the market, Halo Couture Blend-Ins come in 3 widths, 2 lengths, and 23 colors to provide ultimate customization.
