Promising review: "I have always struggled with oily skin. I've finally gotten my oil under control thanks to my current skincare routine, but SPF remained a challenge. Nearly everything I tried left me shiny or quickly got greasy during the day. This SPF spray is a super fine mist that almost feels like nothing is spraying on my face. It doesn't leave behind anything shiny, which is unheard of for a SPF 50 spray. I personally love the smell however, some may find it a bit too much for their liking." — Stephanie Hushcha
Get it from Amazon for $22.99.

Promising review: "What a cool product! I found these on a 'got to have' list off Facebook. I throw shoes out because of the smell rather than wearing them out as I hate wearing socks.

Amazon
BodyGlide is a small business that specializes in chafe-preventing personal care products.
Promising review:"I was so excited to get a new pair of my favorite brand of summer sandals but the first time I wore them they ripped up my heels. Since they were not returnable and I wasn't about to trash them, I was desperate and gave this balm a try. It worked beautifully! I applied the balm liberally to each of my heels when I put my shoes on and the back of my foot/heels were protected all day long! I can't say enough positive things about this product." — Guerra-Diaz

Because I am a 26 year old, I let myself wear the cute shoes and suffer more than I'd like to admit. These shoes have quickly become my most worn because they are cute AND I have NO pain when I get home. Before I would get home and stay on my feet until I was ready to rest for the evening because of how much it hurt to get moving again.

Whether you need a baby shower gift or you are ready to help kids ease transitions to new stages like potty training or bathtime independence, these new products are ready to help you on your parenting journey – there's even something to give mom some hands-free help. The Super Potty Trainer ($12.14 from Walmart, also available from Amazon and other retailers) is a 'Shark Tank' veteran that provides a unique step for potty training. It is designed to bridge the gap (literally!) for kids who are moving from a child's potty to a regular toilet – building their confidence along the way. It sits under the rim of the toilet under the seat, which means it is portable and can travel with your child, and it shrinks the size of the toilet bowl, helping little ones feel more secure. GoldBug Glow Mirror ( $30, also available from Amazon and Walmart) – Keep an eye on rear-facing little ones and keep them entertained when the trip takes longer than they have patience for. This wide mirror straps in with UV-stabilized webbing and features remote-controlled, multi-colored LED lights. It has an adjustable 360-degree pivot design that locks securely in place, so you can easily check in while you get everyone safely to your destination. GoldBug 5-in-1 Car Seat and Nursing Cover ( $19.99, available from Target) – This universal multitasker is made of breathable fabric and ideal for shading baby in the stroller or carrier, serving as a privacy cover for nursing or covering a high chair or shopping cart. And of course, it is machine washable. This one makes a great baby shower gift that can be used for years. FlipBelt ($37+, – As a mom, you really need more than two hands at all times. While the FlipBelt is meant to be a running belt to hold keys, phone and other essentials, it can do all those things while you're chasing a toddler or chaperoning a class trip too. Available in a range of sizes, varieties and colors. Just for Teens UV Patches ($8.99 for a package of 36, available on Amazon) Don't let the name fool you, these UV patches are also good for big kids and adults. These sun stickers go under sunscreen and change color so it is easy to check and know when it is time to reapply sunscreen or get out of the sun altogether. Dinghy Soaps ($7.50, ages 3+) These adorable soaps float – and they are made with simple, clean ingredients like aloe butter, shea butter and olive oil. Perfect for kids who are gaining bathtime independence, these boat-shaped soaps are a manageable size for little hands and add a little fun too. Scents come from essential oils and are all natural. Handmade in Colorado. This article originally appeared on Greenville News: What's Hot: 6 new products for babies, toddlers, moms and teens

27 Ways To Look A *Lot* More Put-Together With Only A *Little* Bit Of Effort

Rely on this gel lint roller so you don't show up to that business meeting with a black blazer covered in pet fur. Bonus points: this one is portable, so you can carry it in your purse. Vacuum up grease with dry shampoo because tbqh, it's been 84 years since your last proper shampoo. I Dew Care dry shampoo employs an effective trio of biotin, black ginseng, and root-boosting powder, and it comes in genius packaging with an attached puff for application that's as easy as dab, dab, dab. Pro tip: Apply just a bit of product, brush it out, and repeat. Putting too much product at once may lead to white residue. Promising review: "I was looking for a dry shampoo that would be easy to use on the go for a trip I was taking. I had no issues taking this through TSA, and it was so easy to use on the go. You literally just pat the poof on your scalp and then rub the powder in. I do have black hair, so dry shampoo is usually very visible in my hair, but I didn't have a hard time. It did a really good job of soaking up all the oil and giving my hair volume. I'm not a fan of the price for the amount that you get, but it is lasting longer than I thought it would. I would definitely recommend and will purchase again." —Teresa Get it from Amazon for $18. If you only have five minutes to get dressed, throw on this tank and skirt set. It's the ideal duo for your next outing — whether that be a picnic, rooftop cocktail, or birthday party. Promising review: "Purchased to wear to work with a soft pink blazer, and I got so many compliments. It looks way more expensive than what I paid. Great material, great color, and great fit. You can probably dress it down with flats also, but I wore heels." —Amazon CustomerGet it from Amazon for $23.01+ (available in women's sizes XS–XL and in 14 colors). Condense your entire morning makeup routine with Maybelline Dream BB Cream, which hydrates, blurs pores, and evens out your overall complexion in a pinch (no more "did I blend evenly?" panic required). It also contains broad-spectrum SPF 30, i.e., you can rush out of the house knowing your complexion is simultaneously looking fresh *and* being protected. This lightweight product is great for normal and dry complexions, but may not be the perfect fit for oily review: "So happy I finally found something that covers my rosy cheeks, blemishes, and large pores. I have combination skin: an oily T-zone but overall dry skin, and it works for my skin. The best part is that it has SPF 30 in it. My dermatologist does not stop stressing the importance of daily use of SPF on the face, so now I'm happy I can still cover up my pimples and protect my skin from harsh UV rays from the sun. It doesn't feel heavy on my face and doesn't make it look like I caked on a pound of foundation. I have used it for about three weeks already and have not noticed an increase in pimples or skin irritation." —DavisGet it from Amazon for $7.43. Sleep with this curling rod headband and wake up to flawless beach waves — no hot tools or arm strength required. Simply wrap damp locks around the roller, fasten with the provided clip, and snooze the night away. Promising review: "This product is so amazing, I bought one for all the people in my family! You clip the soft roll onto the top of your head and then continue to wrap strands of damp, wet hair in a spiral formation, wrapping away from your face. Secure the bottoms with soft scrunchies and you'll have gorgeous curls for days, LITERALLY. Takes a whopping five minutes if you have thick hair like mine. Sleep with it overnight (not uncomfortable at all), and your curls will actually last for days. So simple, so awesome, so much time saved. Can't recommend enough!" —KaitlinGet it from Amazon for $9.99+ (available in eight colors). Running errands? Or I guess, well, actually running? May we present the tennis dress, a put-together upgrade to the leggings you usually wear. Promising review: "It's been feeling like 100 degrees this summer, and when I have to run errands, I don't want to be dripping sweat in a bra, shirt, AND shorts. I love this because everything is built in, the bra, shorts, and the dress are so cute! Keeps me cool and I feel confident in it! Perfect for a hot day." —JessGet it from Amazon for $22.99+ (available in women's sizes XS–XXL and in seven colors). Obtain the ballerina bun of your dreams by way of these Goody spin hair pins — just one pin can do the work of up to *20* hair pins. How does it work, you ask? Just secure your hair into a ponytail, pull it into a super tight bun, spin the pins into place, and BAM! You've got yourself the perfect updo. Promising review: "I'm a nursing student and have to wear my hair in a bun every day. I've tried all the bun makers, watched YouTube videos, and spent too much time getting my hair into a bun. I was able to make a pretty bun that was secure in under 30 seconds. I thought it was a fluke, so I did it again, and then again. I just ordered two more packs because I know if I lose one of these, I'd have to tear the house down looking for it. I have hair to my mid-back, and three of these worked perfectly for me. If I can get my hair in a bun in under 30 seconds, trust me... anyone can." —Tina Get a pack of three from Amazon for $8.79. Upgrade your WFH wardrobe with an elevated cropped tank, one that has been blessed by a stylish fairy godmother. Why? This takes your basic cami and goes *poof.* Promising review: "Don't hesitate, just buy it. I bought it in one color, and as soon as I tried it on, I purchased three more. The material is like butter. It doesn't have a built-in bra, but it's lined. You could put on a bra with this if you'd like, but there's no need. It's cropped but still long enough that it doesn't roll up weirdly at the bottom. Can dress this up or down! I'll probably end up buying every color by the end of the year, it's just that incredible." —DanijtateGet it from Amazon for $19.97 (available in women's sizes S–XXL and 27 colors). Add Supergoop! Glowscreen SPF 40 to your morning routine for an immediately brightened complexion. It contains hyaluronic acid, vitamin B5, and niacinamide for a glow and light coverage. Lit-from-within radiance *and* sun protection in one swipe? Perfection. Promising review: "I love this stuff! It was recommended to me in a Facebook group when I asked for a one-and-done face cream for someone who doesn't really wear makeup. I wanted dewy, I wanted some light refraction, I wanted sun protection, and I didn't want heavy color. This is all those things. It works really well in the Florida sun. I'm covered in freckles, and it doesn't dull or smudge them, it just brightens everything. I don't wear face makeup, other than the occasional swipe of bronzer, and this works great with that. Love it love it love it." —KristenBGet it from Amazon for $22+ (available in three sizes). No time? No problem. Opt for this matching linen set, which looks like it was plucked from the set of a film where the main character has a terrible boss but a fabulous job in publishing. Please tell me that you know what I mean. Promising review: "Love this more than I anticipated. I'm very picky and usually only shop for clothing at Nordstrom, Neiman, or other boutique brands, and for the price, this is 100% worth it. It's lined, and the quality is great. Will be buying again." —Valerie R. Get it from Amazon for $49.99 (available in women's sizes S–XXL and in 16 colors). Tame baby hairs in a jiffy with this plant-based gel cream, which ought to help those pesky flyaways that no amount of brushing can get rid of. The best part? This formula is non-greasy, completely transparent, the mascara wand makes it super easy to apply, and will make your 'do look more polished with basically no effort required. Promising review: "I have super fine hair with lots of breakage, and no matter how I put my hair up, I have bad flyaways. This stuff is great! So easy and it stays better and looks smoother than stiff hairspray." —Jill Stilfield Get it from Amazon for $6.78. Or! Try an edge control gel to help lay your edges and slick back baby hairs with just a few flicks of product. Major bonus points: It won't flake or leave behind any residue, which is *heart eyes* the definition of perfection in our book. BUT we want to add that no one should feel pressure to lay their edges, unless they want to! Check out "Just A Friendly PSA That You Don't HAVE To Lay Your Edges Down If You Don't Wanna." Promising review: "Hands-down! The best edge control I have ever used, and I have used a lot of them. Stayed all day! No flakes and non-greasy! And this one is not even the strongest in the line. Love this product!" —Seabea2013Get it from Amazon for $7.97+ (available in various sizes). I think I speak for all of us when I say blessed be the TikTok.

All you'll have to do is apply the stamp to your lashline, press down onto your skin, and a pristine cat eye will be yours in mere seconds. Promising review: "Okay, so I am as shakey as shakey gets when it comes to putting eyeliner on... but this is a miracle sent from above! It honestly is the most amazing eye makeup product I own at the moment. It is as easy as it sounds. Literally. I like that it is double-ended and you have two pens: one for the left eye and one for the right. The opposite end on both is just every day liquid liner pen, but it goes on soooo much smoother than any other liquid liner I've tried or owned." —Heather OlsenGet it from Amazon for $15.97 (available in two colors). Quickly touch up your brows with a Schick dermaplaning razor, a tool sent from heaven for people who are done with the pains of plucking and the expense of waxing. This quickly rids you of stray brow hairs and unwanted peach fuzz (while ridding your complexion of dead skin to reveal a smoother and brighter complexion), so that you can begin the day with perfectly-groomed facial caterpillars that only took three seconds to tame. And don't panic! This tool is super gentle, so you don't have to worry about accidental nicks and scrapes. Promising review: "This is a 100% painless and incredibly easy alternative to waxing or plucking. A few quick swipes get rid of peach fuzz, and I never have to worry about breaking out because of it. Also, it doesn't make hair grow back coarser or darker." —Ellen R. Get a pack of three from Amazon for $5.94. You're not ready to retire the suede sandals you purchased seven years ago? Fair enough. Use this four-sided cleaning brush to remove the scuff marks and stains that have marred your suede shoes for an instantly more polished look. This brush has a welt surface, nylon bristles, an arched half-circle brush, and a protruding brush that lets you clean different kinds of suede with no harsh rubbing or scrubbing required. Promising review: "I was amazed. After spending about five minutes cleaning suede boots with fairly significant smudges, they came out almost completely clean and are looking really good." —Beth Perkins Get it from Amazon for $6.99. Nip brassiness in the bud with a cult-favorite Fanola purple shampoo. The violet pigment in this formula works to wash away unwanted yellow in your 'do, meaning you can extend the time between salon visits — and the benefits of that are two-fold. You'll save a ton of money on appointments, plus you won't have to subject your hair to additional bleaches and dye that will (I'm sorry to tell you this) cause additional damage. Use this only once a week (for about three minutes at a time) to prevent your hair from turning a slightly lavender shade. Promising review: "Finally! A purple shampoo that actually does something to my brassy hair! I have silver-white hair that is exceptionally hard to maintain due to how easily my hair gains brassy tones and how stubborn they are to remove. I've tried a ton of other brands, and none of their toning shampoos will do a damn thing to my hair even if I leave them on for an hour. I normally have to dilute violet direct dyes to make a dent in my brass. It's nice not to have to schedule a chunk of time to mix a batch of custom toner, painstakingly apply it, and then sit around for an hour while it does its stuff. This shampoo actually works really well and can cut a lot of time out of my bi-weekly color maintenance." —AudreyGet it from Amazon for $18.99. Pair a plain tank with lightweight linen pants that won't have you stewing in your own sweat. These are available in neutral hues, so they're easy to pair with any top in your wardrobe. Give yourself a lovely flush of pink *and* non-sticky moisture thanks to the vitamins A, C, and E found in Nooni Appleberry Lip Oil. It's even packed with apple water and raspberry extract to slough away the dead skin that would inevitably result in a chapped pout. Promising review: "I can't remember who first told me about this lip oil, but it seemed like the perfect solution to my multi-year search of trying to find a lip product that enhanced my natural lip color while keeping my lips moisturized. It's not too sticky and lasts longer than a typical gloss. It's a fairly small bottle, but that also makes it great to keep in a wristlet. The appleberry is also sheer enough to pair over a lip crayon or lip liner." —Sammi Cone Get it from Amazon for $12 (available in 11 colors). Romanticize errands by way of swapping leggings for this tiered maxi skirt. Repeat after me: tank, sandals, this skirt. Promising review: "I live in these skirts!! This is the third one I've bought, each one a different color, and I can be sure that I will be buying more. I literally live in these skirts nearly every day. They are so easy to dress up, wear casually, or dress them up for cosplay!" —Amazon CustomerGet it from Amazon for $32.99 (available in women's sizes S–XXL and in 20 colors). Trade your pajamas for an equally comfy (and errand-appropriate) lounge set. This one is made with a cozy waffle-knit material, ironic considering you'll adore this two-piece just as much as the doughy, syrup-drenched breakfast dessert. Promising review: "I have two sets from Free People. At $130, they are a splurge, but I fell in love with them. I wanted more colors and couldn't justify it, so I'm so glad I gave this set a try. This Amazon one is definitely thinner, but I really like the fabric of this one too, and it's perfect for fall and winter in Texas. I love being comfy and still looking somewhat put together in this." —Lily McAninchGet it from Amazon for $45.99 (available in women's sizes S–XL and in 18 colors). Get glossy, frizz-free curls on second-day (or third or fourth or tenth) hair with Cake Beauty The Curl Friend Defining Cream. A blend of shea butter and lightweight natural oils provides a ton of moisture but thankfully none of the weigh-down. Promising review: "This is the most reasonably priced curly hair product I've found. I originally got a little tube from my Ipsy order, and I liked it so much, I came to Amazon to order a full-sized bottle. It doesn't make my hair crunchy or greasy, even if I accidentally put too much on. My curls look natural and bouncy after using my diffuser, and even when I let my hair air dry, this gives my curls a little extra form and structure to look like I actually did something to my hair." —sbgoodgirl Get it from Amazon for $10.99. Turn any bra into a no-show racerback with the help of these handy dandy adjustable clip holders. Long gone will be the days of —> put on shirt —> bra shows —> take off shirt to change bra —> put shirt back on again. Not to be dramatic, but these clips will change your life when you're in a rush (which is always), not to mention these will make any ensemble look 10x more crisp without straps peeking through. Promising review: "My bra straps spend more time off my shoulders than on — but NOT ANYMORE. I was hoping something like this existed, and when I found it, I was so happy. They're as glorious as I expected them to be. These are life-changing." —Amanda Get a set of three from Amazon for $4.99 (available in six colors). So the eyes aren't the window to the soul; it's actually your brows. This cruelty-free Elizabeth Mott brow gel has a pomade formula to keep your brows in place while subtly filling them in, immediately giving your ensemble an air of ~I am put together, can't you see my brows look good~. The best part? It's so easy. No expert drawing skills required (unlike your regular brow pencil). Promising review: "So incredibly happy with this. It's incredibly easy to apply (I have to really wipe my wand first, though, or else it's too thick), and the color blends in SO well with my natural color. It gives my eyebrows JUST the right amount of attention; not too much, not too little. Just killer, natural, beautiful brows!" —Monique FrenchGet it from Amazon for $9.99+ (available in six shades). Swap your usual leggings-and-tank combo with a button-up matching set that screams "farmers market chic," a foolproof way to feel 110% more put-together on days spent running errands. Promising review: "I love this set, it's so versatile. You can wear the pieces separately or together and dress them up or down. I loved the set so much that I got both navy blue and army green, and they mix and match perfectly. JUST GET IT!!!" —Kristine it from Amazon for $18 (available in women's sizes XS–4XL and in 21 colors). And opt for nonconstrictive support with a Hanes wire-free bra — it's designed with a second skin feel that's so comfortable, it *will* be worn all the time. Willingly. Like, you will actually want to wear this. Promising review: "I haven't worn another bra since I got this and I'm gonna buy, like, five more. I am a 34F/G and I've never found any bralette that fits me (always either too big in the band or too small in the cup). I got a medium and I'm SHOCKED to report that not only do my girls actually fit inside (the fabric has a lot of stretch), but it actually holds them up pretty well." —Lily Housh Get it from Amazon for $15.49+ (available in women's sizes S–3X and in four colors).
