1. A bottle of hydrating Meltdown acne oil — an elixir packed with rosehip oil, blue tansy, tamanu, and black cumin seed to help reduce acne, redness, inflammation, and fade acne scars, all while preventing future breakouts. It's a reviewer fave, especially amongst those with acne-prone skin! Mix this into your moisturizer, wear it under makeup, or use it as a spot treatment.
Blume
Check out a TikTok of the Meltdown Acne Oil in action.
Promising review:"This oil is the closest thing to a 'cure' for breakouts that I have ever used! I have struggled my entire life with breakouts and have even been on Accutane three times. Since I've begun using meltdown oil, not only do I rarely get an outbreak — but if I do, it clears immediately with the application of the oil on the spot(s). This is the 'holy grail' for acne sufferers." — Pam S
Get it from Amazon for $26.60 or from Blume for $47+ (available in two sizes).
2. A K-beauty Nooni tinted appleberry lip oil because heartbreak is one thing, but an icky sticky finish on your lips is another. It's made with soothing apple water to help moisturize and soften your lips while feeling super lightweight. It also gives your lips a lovely, natural-looking flush.
This lip oil is vegan, cruelty-free, and has no parabens, sulfates, or phthalates.
I have been using this lip oil for three months and don't go anywhere without it. It's sooo moisturizing and leaves such a lovely, subtle tint. When my lips are feeling a little dry, I can apply this to add relieving moisture *and* some lively color to my lips. I also love that the brand has various options for different preferences!
Promising review: "I love K-beauty and this is one of my favorite lip oils. It makes my lips softer and looking like cherry plump. Plus, this shade acts as a lip tint, and I like how long it stays on my lips. At first, I thought that the bottle seemed small but after applying 2–3 times/day for a month, I still have a lot left to use. It moisturizes your lips and leaves a red tint on your lips, and it's lasted very long!" — Nhu
Get it from Amazon for $12 (available in 12 colors and in sets).
3. An air-dry leave-in cream that'll banish frizz and transform your curls into silky, irresistible locks. The best part? You don't even need a blowdryer (or any heat-styling tools, for that matter)! This cream works its magic as your hair air dries.
www.amazon.com
This cream helps define your natural texture and works best on those with wavy, curly, or coily hair!!
Promising review:"I hardly ever write reviews for products, let alone add a photo of the results, but my gosh this product is AMAZING. The was just after my first use and I got immediate, satisfying results! Normally, I'd have to take a wand or curling iron to get this effect, but literally all I had to do with this product was take a shower and scrunch it into my hair, and just let it air dry. Not only did my natural waves come out, but my hair feels so soft and looks healthy. This product is also very cost effective! Highly recommend!" — Carmina
Get it from Amazon for $8.39 (also available as a two-pack).
4. Retinol body lotion to enhance your already beautiful skin. It's overflowing with powerful ingredients like vitamins A and E, ferulic acid, shea butter, and green tea to help diminish the look of deep wrinkles, fine lines, sagging skin, crepey skin, and even sun damage — all while giving your collagen production a *major* boost to help with firming.
Promising review:"I have had light to moderate eczema my entire life. On top of that, I turn 60 next year. As a sun baby of Cali during my teens and twenties, I have a lot of sun-damaged skin, including crepe paper skin. I started using this product every morning on my arms and legs. After about six weeks, as long as I use it daily, it has DRAMATICALLY reduced (by 85%) the crepe paper skin. One of the big issues with eczema is your skin does not retain moisture, thus the constant itchy feeling. This product has 90% reduced [my eczema] and as time goes on, my skin is healing and getting much better at holding the moisture." — Bobby Ford
Get it from Amazon for $16.99 (available in seven styles and in packs of two).
5. Joesoef's sulfur soap that stands up to acne, blackheads, and clogged pores like a pro. Sulfur, that star ingredient, is an antibacterial and anti-fungal that'll help you say ✌️ to your skincare woes.
Joesoef Skin Care is a small biz that specializes in anti-acne skincare products.
Promising review:"I recently saw a dermatologist talk about those clogged pores on and around your nose. If they are of uniform size, they aren't blackheads. She suggested using a sulfur soap to get rid of or minimize those stubborn clogged pores. This has a slight sulfur smell, it is not overwhelming and it disappears when dried. It works! My pores are much smaller. After applying and drying, moisturize." — Sandy G
Get it from Amazon for $12.99 (available in two scents and in multipacks).
6. The Saem hydrating eye stick, which has a cooling formula to help de-puff the area around your eyes and reduce the appearance of dark circles so no one at the office starts asking you why you look like a Tim Burton character.
It also can help tighten the appearance of eye wrinkles if you'd prefer for them not to be as noticeable. And here's a tip! It reduces puffiness faster if used after refrigeration.
Promising review: "Within ten minutes, my under-eye bags and discoloration were considerably better. I didn't think this would work but I just screamed at my boyfriend, "I'm screwed because I'm going to need to never run out of this stuff." Such a difference. I'm highly satisfied and upset I didn't purchase more to give to the ladies in my life as a holiday present. There's always next year though!" — Heather
Get it from Amazon for $9.73 (also available as a collagen stick and in packs of two).
7. An E.l.f. lip balm boosted with nourishing ingredients like shea butter, hyaluronic acid, and goji berry to give you an an ever so sheer tint and that perfect juicy pout. Just don't tell Laneige, she might get a little jealous. 👀 Plus, you could get all five for like, the same price as ONE from Laneige.
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
Promising review: "This lip balm is a great alternative if you do not want to pay a ton of money for the Laneige and Summer Fridays lip balms. It is super moisturizing and left my lips super smooth and soft. One of the best e.l.f. products I have tried and it is a wonderful price. Even though it is pretty small, it lasts a good amount of time. I would definitely recommend." — Lance Z.
Get it from Amazon for $4 (available in five styles).
8. Or if you are looking for something a bit more ~splurge-worthy~ — a lightweight, moisture-coating Laneige Lip Glowy Balm packed with murumuru (a palm native to the Amazon) and shea butter, making it the perfect daytime partner in crime to the cult-favorite lip sleeping mask. Be careful using this around your besties, because they *will* be asking if they can have some.
Check out how all the colors look when applied in this TikTok!
Promising review:"Yes, it's a pricy lip gloss. I splurged on one of these and a lip mask, just to see what all the hype is about and...it's valid. Very valid. Ridiculously valid. This lip gloss goes on thick like a luxe gloss, but smooth like an oil. Lots of slip on the lip and absolutely zero stickiness. It also lasts for hours where most lip gloss is gone with one sip of water. It is, seriously, the best lip gloss that I've ever used." — DarlingBlueEyes
Get it from Amazon for $19+ (available in nine scents and as a set).
9. Color Wow's Dream Coat Supernatural Spray, which is made with a super lightweight, nongreasy formula that doubles as a heat protectant and basically transforms your hair into silk, all while giving it waterproof powers. Simply apply it to damp hair, comb to distribute, and blow-dry to activate its magic!
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
Reviewers with a wide range of hair types rave about this spray — from people with fine 2b hair to people with wavy hair to people with curly 4c hair. Reviewers with color-treated hair also swear by this spray!
Check it out in this TikTok!
Promising review:"I wear hair extensions so I'm always looking for a product that can moisturize and add a lot of shine. This is the only product I tried in the last two years actually does as advertised! All the other products I've tried prior to this are always in very tiny little containers and this one is a nice size bottle that lasted me for at least a month, usually the other products last maybe a day. The only thing that I'm not so fond of is the price but it is worth every penny so it's kind of hard to dispute that LOL. Just know that if you do splurge for this product, you will be satisfied and absolutely thrilled to see how soft and beautiful your hair looks again. I highly recommend!" — bridgett kinsey
Get it from Amazon for $12+ (available in two sizes and as a set).
10. A skin spatula to really and truly give you that feeling of ~clean skin~. This uses high-frequency vibrations to gently remove gunk and impurities from pores — not only will you feel refreshed, but it'll create the perfect canvas for your expensive skincare products to *actually* absorb.

Promising review:" The way this product has literally made a dramatic difference in my skin in 48 hours????? I'm shocked!!

Thank you! All the nurses on my team have been informed!!! I want us all to be beautiful!" — Camille Rogers
Get it from Amazon for $16.99+ (available in three colors).
11. A TikTok viral overnight collagen mask, which has taken over my entire FYP for weeks — and now I see why! Give your skin a big ole' drink of water with this probiotic-packed mask, which starts as a milky-colored hydrogel mask, and as the hours go by, it gradually turns clear, signaling that it's working its magic on your skin. It'll not only strengthen your skin's barrier and improve elasticity, but it'll also refine the appearance of large pores and help smooth out fine lines. Many reviewers also say it's surprisingly comfortable to sleep in!

Promising review: "Oh…my god….🤯 No scent. It starts milky white and turns clear. I left it on overnight , woke up, and I was shook!! Pores? Where? Dry patch? Where? Fine wrinkles? Whheeerrrrrre??? Put it on over my lips as well, and it almost looked like a had fillers. It was so plump! 10/10 recommend. Holy grail of face masks. <3" — Kichi
Get a four-pack from Amazon for $19 (also available in a 16-count).
12. A Sol de Janeiro Brazilian Bum Bum Cream that has such a SCRUMPTIOUS scent, it might just make you ditch your perfume altogether. Enriched with caffeine, guarana extract, and coconut oil, this miraculous little jar of cream will help tighten *and* smooth your skin like nobody's business.
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
Promising reviews: 'This smells super amazing! Not usually one to splurge on a little canister for somewhat expensive price but this is worth it! Will be buying big canister next time! Very appealing scent ;)" — Claire
"I never buy expensive beauty products for myself. This is the one exception. I got a little sample tub of it as a freebie, and I fell in love with it. It smells absolutely incredible, and the scent lasts for hours. Not only is it extremely moisturizing, but it's fast absorbing, which is perfect for someone like me who works with her hands all day. Plus, you don't have to use a ton of it at a time, so the tubs last a long time! This stuff is ABSOLUTELY worth the price, and I couldn't recommend it more!" — Starr
Get it from Amazon for $24+ (available in three sizes).
13. A super pigmented E.l.f. camo liquid blush, which is apparently going head-to-head with Rare Beauty. 👀 This long-lasting, buildable, easy-to-blend potion will kiss your cheeks with a lovely flush of color and a soft, dewy finish that'll have you coming back for more. And let's be honest, we can't ignore that nice price point.
Promising review: "This stuff is no joke. I like to use one product for my full face for a quick makeup routine as eyeshadow, blush, and highlight all at once. When I tell you I need exactly two dots for my whole face I couldn't be more serious! Has a different, more glossy texture than a Rare Beauty blush but the pigment is much stronger. Comes off very dewy and kind of glossy but can be made matte with powder. The only thing I will say is that if you overwork it, there can be small lifted spots which happened to me when I first tried it because I used too much then had to try to blend so much. Already purchased another color. Love E.l.f. makeup!" — oscar Julian zapotitla
Get it from Amazon for $6.89+ (available in nine shades).
14. A hydrating snail mucin repairing essence that will soothe and rejuvenate your skin so effectively, it'll make you think the exact opposite of "ew" when you think of snail mucin. It can also give your skin a natural "I woke up like this" glow that has earned it over 72,000 5-star ratings!
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
And tell Gary not to worry! The snail mucin is obtained in a safe way, so no snails are harmed!
I've personally been using this for months now and it's amazing how it's improved aspects of my skin that I didn't even know needed improving. I didn't think my skin looked too dull before, but after see how this brightened and soothed my skin, I'm never going back. I spray my face with rose water, gently pat the essence into my skin while it's still damp, and let it absorb. Plus, it absorbs so quickly; it's like your skin is saying, "Gimme gimme gimme!!"
Promising review:"I've been using this morning and night for about two weeks and I can say I understand the hype! My skin looks better than it has in so long. Firstly, the texture surprised me. When you think snail mucin, you think slimy and gross. This wasn't sticky or slimy whatsoever. I was afraid it was gonna leave my skin feeling gross and slippery. Surprisingly, my skin drank it right up! No residue whatsoever and it's a nice primer before makeup. I have oily skin and it's helped with that as well. My skin is so soft, with a nice healthy glow. I've noticed my red spots from past acne is fading and my skin just overall looks great. Highly recommend!" — Sarah Downs
15. A waterproof, crease-resistant R.E.M. Lustrous Liquid Eyeshadow, which is also the product that Sabrina Carpenter's makeup artist uses to create her luminous look.

Get it from Ulta for $17 (available in 11 shades).
16. A Neutrogena makeup-correcting stick so you don't have to be so anxious about making a "whoopsie" during your beauty routine. This lets you effortlessly clean up smudged eyeliner or mascara, which is more sanitary than using your fingers and more eco-friendly than using cotton swabs!
Amazon
Psst — this is also *perfect* for taking on long trips!
Promising review: "Perfect for travel or quick touch-ups. I was looking for something nonliquid to take when I travel and this is PERFECT! It's very small and slim and works great. Easily removes makeup and works well on my sensitive skin." — sandy
Get it from Amazon for $11.92.
17. A Revlon hot air brush that'll save you more than double the time it takes you to style your hair with a traditional blowdryer and round brush. This magical tool will give you soft, smooth waves with just a few passes!
Promising review:"I am a licensed cosmetologist of 30+ years and I couldn't be more pleased! Salon-perfect, shiny, bouncy blow outs! Dries and styles in one or two easy passes ( on damp hair) and provides maximum lift if I style it that way. Easily dries and styles large sections of hair making this THE BEST hairstyling tool! Highly recommend! I use the low setting and cool blast. Surprised and very happy that I don't need med/high settings. Only caveat I have come across so far: the temp/speed setting is in an awkward place to be able to change it while using. Learning curve, I suppose. Otherwise, another GREAT styling tool from Revlon! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️" — ERJ
Get it from Amazon for $32.25+ (available in 10 styles).
18. Or a compact, splurge-worthy Shark FlexStyle air styling system, which many reviewers are ditching their Dyson for (and this one's less than half the price!). It features five attachments that can dry, smooth, curl, *and* volumize your hair at maximum speed. The best part? It's got temp-regulating technology that reduces heat damage to your hair!
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
Check it out in this TikTok!
Promising review: " Big splurge and worth it! I spent three weeks reviewing this against the Dyson. I choose this based on the tools I already have and use. Thrilled to say that this replaces them all!!! Really! Wow! I have hair down to my butt and this blows it out in 15 minutes and with styling 25 min! Huge time saver! My hair is thick and I'm still working with product to help hold curl since my hair isn't layered. It always pulls out to a soft wave but OMG the volume! I used to use the Revlon one step and this is better! Also I have straight across my forehead bangs and the curling wands replace the flat iron- seriously this replaces all the other tools!" — Victoria
Get it from Amazon for $279.99+ (available in three styles).
19. A so-dang-good Coco & Eve foam self-tanner if you live in an area where the sun has checked out until next year. ✌️ This'll give you some downright magical results. No, seriously, you'll be looking like a bronzed god/goddess that belongs on a beach somewhere sipping on a piña colada without a care in the world.
Promising review: "I've used tanning beds for a couple of years, I know they're bad, I just HATE self tanning or spray tans and their results. Therefore, I didn't think this product would be anything special, but I'm desperate to be tan all the time. I applied it with a mitt, let it sit overnight, and rinsed it off the next morning. AMAZING natural results. NO STREAKS! I also work out frequently, sauna and everything, and it doesn't melt off or look spotty. 10/10 and will be using all the time. I got the color 'dark' and it worked perfectly. But next time, I might get Ultra dark! Love it. Makes me feel confident, I'm never using a tanning bed again." — Larrisa D.
Get it from Amazon for $38 (available in three shades).
20. Rael Beauty's miracle patch made specifically to draw out the pus from your pimples. What makes *this* one so unique is that its edges are so thin that they blend in with your skin seamlessly. This makes them perfect for having some acne-fighting magic on your face while still being able to go about your day without anyone noticing.
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
Promising review:"I am a pimple patch fan okay. I have tried them ALL but i always was intrigued by this brand and was very skeptical on three things; effectiveness, visibility, and size. I LOVE the fact that Rael pimple patches have two different sizes, all with hydrocolloids. They are practically invisible on the face unless you are extremely close up. I would feel extremely comfortable wearing these to my childcare job because I know they are not visible, and if you work with kids you know how they love to point pimple patches out. 🤣 I left one on my face all night (9+ hours), and it completely erased the pimple on the side of my cheek. Best pimple recovery I've seen ever on my face. I love these and will buy more, and you should too!!!!!" — Brian Cage
Get a 96-count pack from Amazon for $16.99 (available in four quantities).
21. A wildly popular curl-defining foaming mousse enriched with coconut and shea oils to create soft wraps, tame frizz, and treat your hair to some intense hydration — leaving hair feeling ultra soft and nourished.
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
Promising review:"WOW. Where do I begin? I have extremely temperamental hair. Long, thin hair, sensitive, sometimes too dry then oily, scalp issues, sebum wack.. and the worst? ALWAYS FRIZZY. I've tried almost every, and I mean every, hair product out there. Every conditioner, micellar water, curl conditioning, leave in conditioning was making my hair so greasy within hours of a shower. To sum it up, this is the brattiest impossible hair situation. Then, I got this. This is definitely the 🐐 and holy grail TOGETHER. I don't need much. Not only does this condition and soften my hair significantly, I have ZERO FRIZZ!! This formula is magic, my hair doesn't get oily at all and actually makes your hair feel fresh for so long (no buildup, oils or agitation). Light and fluffy formula while keeping curls/hair frizz free and bouncy." — Amazonist
Get it from Amazon for $3.98 (also available as a two-pack).
22. A pore-clearing cleansing oil to magically eliminate makeup residue, blackheads, and sebum while preventing pore congestion — perfect to incorporate into a double cleansing routine! It's also hypoallergenic and works wonders for sensitive, acne-prone skin.
BTW, a lot of reviewers say they use this as part of their double cleansing routine. As the name implies, double cleansing is a method of cleansing your face twice: first with an oil-based cleanser and again with a water-based cleanser to help get all the yucky stuff out of your pores.
Promising reviews:"I don't need makeup remover wipes or a separate eye makeup remover because this product does the job for all of it! I've tried different products in the past, but this is the only one that has truly satisfied me. I'm extremely happy that I discovered this product!" — Perla Cuevas
"I don't usually leave reviews, but this product is the best cleansing oil EVER!!!!! Worked flawlessly after first try and I can actually see the results immediately!! My gosh, it's lightweight and smells relaxing. Massage it to your skin 5–10 minutes and you can see the magic. Will definitely add this into my skincare routine. JUST GET IT !!!!!" — Vince
Get it from Amazon for $17.69.
23. Tape-in extensions that'll really and truly make you feel like you belong in a L'Oréal commercial, flipping your hair in slo-mo for the whole world to admire.

You'll need 2–3 packs depending on thickness and you'll get 20 tapes in each. And check 'em out on TikTok!
Here's why BuzzFeed Shopping contributor Jordan Grigsby *loves* these:"Okay, so, who's gonna tell me this isn't my hair? I am OBSESSED with these tape-in extensions. I *just* got them professionally installed for my birthday last week and they are simply perfection. So so versatile! I'm a clip-in girly but I got these and even though it's 98 degrees (no Nick Lachey) outside in Maryland, I could not wait for fall to put them in. These are so so freakin' beautiful, seamless, and it looks like it's growing out of my scalp. I do recommend that if you have curly hair, get the curly ones for summer! I have to take these out next week because the tape-ins are straight (I'm kicking myself for not getting the curly ones), my hair is naturally curly, I'm sweating bullets, and I wanna go to the pool without having curly hair and bone straight extensions after. So I sadly have to take 'em out early, but please believe when the temperatures drop in October, these are going right back in my head for all of fall and winter. I only want to use tape-ins from now on, clip-ins are lovely, but these?! Top tier. I used about two and a half packs for my thick hair which TOTALLY shocked me (I got four packs cuz I thought I'd need more). If you like extensions, I highly suggest trying these out!"
Get a pack of 20 tape-in extensions from Irresistible Me for $89.50+ (originally $179; available in 14"–28" and in two base styles; also available in more colors and a 3a curly texture).

It's a fan fave for a reason!
Promising review:"Love it, love it, love it!!! You really look like you have fake eyelashes on. This mascara is amazing! It's not thick and lumpy, and it glides on smoothly and precisely. You feel like you had a makeup artist do your eyes!!! It lasts all day — no touch-up required, no smearing, no clumping. I use soap and warm water to remove. I am 500% completely happy and satisfied!" — Very Dissatisfied !!

I've been using this serum for about five months now and cannot say enough good things about it. I got the "glow" serum (I love that there are different options for different skin concerns), and it continues to minimize my pores and make my skin look plump and radiant!
Promising review:"From the moment I started using this serum I saw results! The combination of propolis and niacinamide in this serum is a winning formula. My complexion has never looked this radiant and healthy. It effectively addresses dark spots and hyperpigmentation, visibly reducing their appearance. What makes this serum even more remarkable is its lightweight and fast-absorbing texture. It feels like silk on my skin and leaves no greasy residue. I can apply it seamlessly without worrying about it disrupting my makeup or other skincare products. The hydrating properties of this serum are a game-changer. My skin feels intensely nourished and plump, minimizing the look of fine lines and wrinkles. The only downside is the price. I think it's a bit expensive for the amount of product you get. However, it's so good that I'll still leave it at 8/5 stars!" — Yuna Lee
Get it from Amazon for $16.58.
27. Or a wonderfully potent Seoul Ceuticals Day Glow Serum infused with hyaluronic and ferulic acid, vitamin E, citrus stem cells, and centella asiatica to help (*takes a deep breath*) reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines as well as help fade dark spots, shrink pores, prevent breakouts, and brighten your overall complexion.

Yes the texture is water-based, and when I woke up the next day — WOW I WAS GLOWING!!! It's been a few weeks on this now and I have to say I will continue to buy it. I rinse with water and then put a dropper full on each cheek and rub it all over my face and follow it with sunscreen. FREAKING GLOWWWWWWWINGGGGGG.

Promising review:"I've gone through several sunscreens to wear with make-up and this has been the best for me. I'm a simple girl.

The consistency is light and smooth, leaving my sensitive skin feeling unbelievably refreshed, hydrated, and CLEAN! I had struggled to find a foaming cleanser that wouldn't break my skin out for YEARS, and La Roche-Posay understood the challenge. My skin GLOWS after I use this!

Promising reviews: "My daughter's hair was lime green from a friend's swimming pool. Not wanting to spend $40 on this, I tried a few other things first, and it was a giant waste of time. I should've just got this first. It removed ALL of the green with just one packet, and the shampoo and conditioner made her hair feel so hydrated (and it smells amazing, too!). If you're on the fence, just buy this. It's worth every penny." — Amanda E
"Our pool filter went down for a few days, and when they said it was safe to swim in again, they didn't mention the amount of chemicals they must have used. My daughter's hair went from silky white to crunchy and neon green in like, 20 minutes of swimming!!!!! I tried three different swim shampoos, and none of them did a thing! My hairdresser recommended this to me, so I figured I'd give one more product a shot. This is literally a miracle product! I saw the green disappearing before my eyes. My daughter's hair is back to its beautiful blonde silk and I am SO grateful to have found this!" — Ross Greenman

Ulike Hair Removal: A Look At The Brand's Most Advanced IPL Device
This article was created in partnership with Ulike to showcase its Air 10 IPL hair removal device. The Air 10 is designed with cutting-edge features to help you achieve smooth skin that lasts. Swimsuit season is here, and you might be considering ways to get rid of stubborn body hair. As an alternative to razors or at-home waxing kits, which have short-term results, Ulike hair removal devices use intense pulsed light (IPL) technology to target melanin in the hair follicles, putting them into a dormant state to hinder further growth. The brand's most advanced device—the lightweight Ulike Air 10—is built to deliver full-body hair reduction with results in as little as two weeks. Plus, its skin protection and cooling features help ensure safety and comfort with each session. Right now, you can save 26% on your purchase. Here's everything you need to know about the Ulike Air 10 so you can decide if it's right for you (make sure to refer to the brand's hair and skin tone chart to determine if IPL hair removal is a suitable option for you). Flashes: 300,000 | Light type: IPL | Power modes: 4 | FDA-cleared: Yes The Ulike Air 10 has a wide treatment surface and powerful dual lights to visibly reduce hair in just two weeks when you use it every other day. With the device's quick-flashing AutoGlide mode, you can tackle your legs, armpits, arms, bikini line, face and chest in around 10 minutes. Sapphire Ice Cooling technology helps the Air 10 maintain a 65-degree-Fahrenheit contact temperature to minimize burns, pain and irritation with use—even in sensitive regions. Plus, its SkinSensor automatically adapts the intensity of each flash to your skin tone, pausing in areas that are darker (and therefore absorb higher levels of energy) to ensure adequate protection. The Ulike Air 10's four power modes allow you to customize treatment depending on how thick your hair is and which body part you are targeting. Fast mode is ideal for regular maintenance, large areas and quick touch-ups; Normal is best for removing fine-to-normal hair on most body parts; High is meant for removing coarse hair on the arms, legs, chest and back; and the laser-inspired Super Hair Removal (SHR) mode powerfully disrupts growth on the armpits, chest, beard or bikini line. When you use SHR mode for your every-other-day sessions in the first two weeks, you can expect up to a 96% reduction in hair density. IPL offers a range of benefits compared to other hair removal options. While shaving and waxing can cause redness, burns and skin irritation, and only remove hair for a short period of time, IPL is nearly painless for most and delivers long-lasting results. In terms of convenience, laser hair removal usually requires visiting a clinic for professional treatment, but you can use the Ulike Air 10 from the comfort of your home. Plus, it's a far less expensive method than laser hair removal, and you skip the costs of either salon or at-home waxing treatments or shaving supplies as well. The Ulike Air 10 is currently 26% off, so if you shop now, you can save even more. To use the Ulike Air 10, prepare your skin by shaving hairs longer than 2mm. Then pick your mode, place the device against your target area and engage the flashes to begin treatment. The brand recommends using the Air 10 three times a week for the first month followed by biweekly or monthly sessions for touch-ups. Each treatment encourages body hair to grow back thinner, lighter and less often. Flashes: 300,000 | Light type: IPL | Power modes: 3 | FDA-cleared: Yes The Air 3—Ulike's baseline hair removal device—is easy to use and provides noticeable hair reduction in as little as three weeks, making it Forbes Vetted's pick for the best full-body at-home laser hair removal device. Use Soft mode for your face and upper lip, Body mode for your arms and legs, and Power mode for your bikini area and armpits. You can remove hair from your entire body in about 12 minutes using the thumb-free AutoGlide mode. Plus, like the Air 10, the Air 3 is designed with Sapphire Ice Cooling technology to help prevent burns and irritation. Flashes: 300,000 | Light type: IPL | Power modes: 3 | FDA-cleared: Yes While Ulike devices are gender-neutral, the Ulike X features a mode with high energy output to tackle the thick body hair commonly found on men's armpits, face, pubic area, abdomen and more. It has a wide treatment window and dual lights for effective results, cooling technology and sensors to safely adjust the intensity of flashes. The intensity levels are Normal for eliminating fine to medium hair, Fast for quick touch-ups and High for thick, coarse hair. Additional modes include AutoGlide for treating large areas and Manual for precise removal. While Ulike hair removal devices can't permanently stop hair from growing back, regular maintenance sessions help keep the follicles dormant, preventing regrowth over time. For prolonged results, the brand recommends one or two treatments per month (after doing three sessions a week for the first month). You might be able to stop using the device for an extended period; however, it's possible your hair will return in six to 12 weeks, requiring additional follow-up sessions. While laser hair removal works by flashing rays to burn hair follicles, IPL uses mild light beams that induce follicles into a dormant state. While side effects are possible with either approach, those caused by IPL tend to be less severe. Ulike hair removal is also nearly painless for most, due to having a lower intensity than laser and incorporating cooling technology into its devices. IPL also uses a broad spectrum of light that can adjust to different skin types and hair colors; laser hair removal uses an intense, single-focused wavelength that is more likely to cause damage.

Its users can choose from more than 40 exercise modes including HIIT, yoga, strength training, and running along with auto-exercise detection so that no workout goes unrecorded. The watch also includes 24/7 heart rate monitoring with high or low heart rate alerts to keep users in their target heart rate training zones. The Active Zone Minutes motivates users to stay in their own target heart rate zones, enhancing the effectiveness of workouts. Fitbit Daily Readiness Score which is included with the additional six-month Premium membership makes personalized suggestions to train harder or take a rest day based on recovery. Combined with the Cardio Fitness Score (VO2 Max), the user can utilize these and optimize training for cumulative improvements.

What's more, it boasts a personalized Sleep Profile, sleep stage percentage breakdowns (light, deep, and REM), and a Sleep Score to allow users to understand and improve their sleep. Its smart wake-up alarm also wakes users at the optimal point in their sleep cycle for better mornings.
