An SPF 45 setting spray by E.l.f. so you can refresh your makeup *and* reapply sunscreen simultaneously. It'll obvi set the beat face you spent all morning on, and you can also use it as a primer!
Promising review: "I participate in an outdoor sport later in the afternoon and I was concerned that the sunscreen I'd applied in the morning wasn't providing me any protection later in the day when I needed it most. Cue the E.l.f. sunscreen spray! I just give myself a few spritzes before heading out to my sport, and my face is more protected from the late-day rays. This definitely does not take the place of cream sunscreen but it's a great option for renewed protection when you already have a full face of makeup on." —AnnePrice: $14

Promising review: "Makes my skin look and feel great! Will be purchasing again!" —GinaPrice: $25
A bottle of Nair body cream hair remover for anyone who'd rather ditch the blades and painful waxing or sugaring sessions. Getting rid of the hair on your legs has never been easier. Literally, all you do is apply a thick layer of Nair, wait three minutes, wipe it off, and rinse. That's it! The hair will just magically fall off. Witchcraft, I tell ya.
Do a patch test before applying this all over! If you have sensitive skin, you may wanna leave this on for less than three minutes, but you can leave it on for up to 10 minutes. Do not use this on your face!! Only on your legs, arms, underarms, and bikini area. Promising review: "I absolutely love Nair Body Cream Hair Remover! The cocoa butter and vitamin E formula not only effectively removes body hair, but also leaves my skin feeling incredibly smooth and hydrated. The scent is divine, making the hair removal process a pleasant experience. I appreciate the ease of use and quick results. I highly recommend this product to anyone looking for a reliable and effective body hair removal cream." —TiaraPrice: $5.84
A cuticle remover with aloe and chamomile to soothe, moisturize, and condition your cuticles as it quickly eliminates the excess skin.
Promising review: "I have cuticles that grow out fast and I have a hard time cutting them myself. This cream helps so much that my nails look like I went to the salon. Highly recommend." —MaureenPrice: $4.97

An Eos body lotion that TikTok went wild for. And rightfully so — this stuff smells too good to be true. It is lightweight, will deliver a whole lotta long-lasting moisture, and will surely make its way to the top of your favorites list.
Promising review: "I'm obsessed with this lotion, from the smell to the texture. If you are a sweet vanilla type, then you will love it! The smell and hydration last all day (maybe a touch-up or two), and the scent lingers on your clothing. The texture is very smooth, it's not sticky or overly oily, it absorbs fast, and softens the skin, leaving a hydrated glow. I'm very picky with my lotions' smell and texture. I have dry skin, and I can use this with or without my after-shower body oil. It's a must-have in your lotion collection!!" —mistyPrice: $9.97 (available in a three-pack)
Plus, an Eos whipped oil butter because their body lotion has held you down for so long, you KNOW this is gonna be incredible. The thicck (two Cs because she's extra thiiiccckk), rich, buttery *but not heavy* texture will help lock in moisture, leaving your skin hydrated. Plus, it's got cocoa and argan butter in it, so it's like they just took perfection and threw it in a jar, basically.

A self-tanner because it applies evenly and delivers you some magical results in only an hour. And best of all, no fake-tan smell!
Leave it on for 4+ hours for darker results.Promising review: "I absolutely love this self-tanner. It doesn't make you look orange, it goes on easily, and it gives you a very dark, natural-looking tan that lasts days. You don't have to use much, and it lasts at least five to six applications. It is just awesome. Best self-tanner I've ever used, and I've tried several different self-tanners from different companies, and they don't hold a candle to this tanner or company. You can't beat the price." —TeresaPrice: $9.97
A jar of The Best Damn Beard Balm made with *superior-grade ingredients* like lanolin and cocoa butter to help keep your beard and skin lookin' and feeling moisturized.
Promising reviews: "The best bread balm I've used. The scent is great, you won't be disappointed." —Lee"Great beard balm! It holds, conditions, and I get a lot of positive comments on the redwood essence from the ladies." —RussellPrice: $9.98

Don't put the bad stuff in you, buy Honey Pot!" —AlyssaPrice: $8.38 for a pack of 12
A cordless water flosser because constantly buying those little picks is not the move. Plus, you need several of 'em just to get every part of your mouth. With this, you'll be able to remove plaque and bacteria with just water.
Promising review: "I never thought water flossing was effective, but my dental hygienist suggested I try one, so I bought this. I couldn't believe how much better a Waterpik cleans between teeth than regular floss — and so quickly. I just had a regular checkup, and my gums didn't bleed. I am recommending this to everyone I know... I'm 73, and I can't believe I'm only now trying out a Waterpik!" —Lady73Price: $37.97 (available in a two-pack)
A tube of nipple cream for the breastfeeding mommas with sore nips. And don't worry about cleaning it off before feeding, it's 100% natural and safe for baby!
Promising reviews: "This is one thing I recommend to anyone planning on breastfeeding. I have nursed four children and have had it for each of them. (Just bought another for our new little one.) A little goes a long way. I used it for the first couple of months, and then I didn't need it anymore. I always have half of the tube left." —Erica4"Definitely a lifesaver for first-time breastfeeding mommas. Relieves pain immediately after application and is safe for baby, so you don't need to wipe it off." —AngieMPrice: $9.12

Promising review: "Love these heatless curls, this is the only way that I can get my curls to stay, very comfortable to sleep in, and pretty curls in the morning. Highly recommend, super easy to do. Would recommend getting a claw clip or having duck bills to hold in place while putting it in." —LoraPrice: $15.98+ (available in two colors)
A set of 20 Babyliss nano titanium hot rollers — six small, six medium, and eight large, so you can always look like you *just* stepped outta the salon.
You'll also get 20 butterfly clips and 20 color-coded metal clips.Promising reviews: "I use electric curlers. Curlers keep my hair healthy instead of an iron. I have used heated curlers for many years. This product is fabulous. It is made like the curlers in the 1970s. I am glad I purchased them. I have used many brands, and this one is the best I've used in 20 years. I am glad I discovered them. The old set I had fell apart and smelled like they were on fire the last two months. I paid twice as much money for those. I hope these curlers last a long time. Very pleased!" —Elizabeth"This is a must-have if you want hot rollers. It's perfect for all hair lengths and especially good for color-treated hair!!" —osagePrice: $79.99

Promising reviews: "I love how I don't have to use any shaving cream or soap with this razor. It easily glides and makes my legs feel so smooth! I got out of the shower, and it felt like my legs were in silk sheets! Iykyk! I also love how comfy it is to hold and that it comes with a suction cup holder! It's very cute and definitely worth the price!" —Ashlee"I was very surprised and impressed with this razor!! First time using it today and I thought it was gonna cut me just like all the other new ones did, but it didn't!! I always shave with just water, and this razor makes it slide smoothly without any problems!!!" —HeatherPrice: $9.97
And a roll-on ingrown hair treatment because shaving seems great — ya know, the super smooth legs you can't stop touching — but you also know the razor bumps are on their way. This'll help you prevent AND get rid of those pesky suckers. Plus, it'll do the same for ingrown hairs, so you won't have to skip the beach because of a super annoying pus-filled bump.
Promising review: "I am super prone to ingrown hairs and razor bumps. This stuff is seriously a miracle!! I've used countless products over the years that I found from internet searches or TikTok videos, and none really worked for me. I have always dreaded shaving my legs because it never fails, I have angry bumps by the next day, and super itchy legs. I've epilated, waxed, sugared, it seems like I tried everything. Wasted so much money on fancy razors even, and none of it ever mattered. Since incorporating this product, my legs look and feel so much better! The roll top kind of sounds like an excited raccoon while I am rolling it on my legs, but that's my only criticism. It does burn a bit when applying, but with how bad my razor burn is, it is a small price to pay. Do yourself a favor and try this product. I wish I had found it before the end of summer." —KayPrice: $13.97

I especially love the tools, so now I don't have to pay an aesthetician to get the junk out of my pores. And I love steaming my hair with it too. I'm very happy with my purchase." —KelliPrice: $39.95 (available in three colors)

Promising review: "I honestly did not want to buy a perfume online. I was definitely scared to, but I am so happy that I did! It is now my most favorite perfume scent ever! And I got it for so cheap compared to the other places I've seen this scent. I will 1,000% be buying this again, I am so happy to finally have found a scent that I love!" —KaitlynPrice: $39.90 (originally $155)

WOW!" —Kimberly"I honestly couldn't be more pleased with the results. As a coffee lover (lol), I have always been self-conscious about the discoloration of my teeth, but this kit helped me regain my smile, which is way whiter. Glad I found the brand." —WillPrice: $28.99
A ceramic hot comb, but not the one like your momma used on you every Easter as a kid. You don't have to put this bad boy on the stove (thank goodness — those things got hotter than Michael B. Jordan). Simply plug it in, choose from the 10 adjustable heat settings, and perfect your style.
It also has an automatic shut-off feature so after an hour of being inactive, it'll turn off.Promising review: "Y'all, please don't walk, RUN!! It's affordable and gets the job done! It has different temperature settings, and whichever one you pick, the LED display counts up to the number, and you'll know when it's ready!! The highest is 450, and I use 450 every time. It might take like 60-65 seconds to get there, but when it gets there, it gets there! Please buy it, you won't regret it." —DaDonnPrice: $23.47
