Buzz Feed19-05-2025

A skin-firming Jergens self-tanner body lotion because it'll gradually deepen your natural skin tone over the course of a few days, giving you a glow you don't have to risk a sunburn to get. Oh, and by "skin-firming," I mean that this lotion is infused with collagen, elastin, and green tea infusions to help reduce the appearance of cellulite (if that's something you're interested in). And of course, it's hydrating and moisturizing — it's still a Jergens lotion after all.
A pair of lightweight tinted lip balms if you've been dying to try Clinique's Black Honey lip balm, but $25 is too steep a price to pay for just one stick. This cheaper alternative is subtle, buildable, and packed with nutritious ingredients. Enhance your lips' natural color with this non-sticky and long-lasting balm!
A bottle of dandruff shampoo made with ketoconazole to help relieve and control flaking, scaling, and itching caused by dandruff. Clean and clear scalps for all!
An oil-absorbing Laneige blurring powder because it'll basically make your pores disappear. You'll also be blessed with a flawless, semi-matte, shine-free finish. But don't worry, you'll still keep your glow!
Or an oil-absorbing face roller made using absorbent volcanic stone that'll soak up any excess oil so you can have instantly matte skin. No more dabbing your face with a million small oil-blotting sheets.
A medium-coverage L'Oreal True Match liquid foundation for a color match so precise, you'll feel it was made specifically and uniquely for you. And hey, maybe it was. The extremely blendable formula will leave you with a natural-looking finish, and because it's so lightweight, it won't "settle into fine lines or look cakey."
Or a buildable Laura Geller color correcting powder foundation if your past attempts at applying foundations left you with a thick, cakey look and product sinking into your fine lines and wrinkles. This lightweight formula was designed not to do any of that. You'll get a natural-looking, demi-matte finish, but that's not all! It's packed full of antioxidants that can help nourish and hydrate your skin. Effortless flawlessness.
A delightfully scented foaming mousse formulated with coconut and shea oils to hydrate hair, define curls, and combat frizz. It's also a great mousse to use atop natural protective styles like knotless braids. Some reviewers even use this on curly/wavy wigs!
A vegan under-eye brightening concealer that can help balance out bluish tones and dark circles. It's formulated with hyaluronic acid and shea butter to nourish and hydrate skin. You'll look like you've had days of sleep...even if the truth is you haven't slept in days.
A pore-control Anua heartleaf extract cleansing oil for gently and effectively ridding your face of dirt, makeup, sebum, and blackheads. This hypoallergenic K-beauty formula has soothing ingredients that won't cause clogged pores. You can even add it to your double cleansing routine!
A vegan and cruelty-free skin-tightening Sol de Janeiro body cream made with coconut and açai oil. Its caffeine-rich formula stimulates circulation for smoother-looking skin.
Plus, a skin-firming neck and chest Gold Bond cream designed to help improve the texture, elasticity, and appearance of your skin. And it's got hyaluronic acid to keep your skin hydrated.
A lash-extending E.l.f. Cosmetics tubing mascara that uses tubing tech to extend the look of your lashes beyond their natural length by wrapping around them. This long-lasting and lengthening formula leaves no lumps, no flakes, and no smudges. Plus, it contains 5% jojoba seed oil to condition lashes while giving you an epic lewk!
An eight-second L'Oréal lamellar rinse-out treatment for shinier, healthier, and silkier hair in, well, eight seconds. No need to wait 10 long minutes to rinse your hair out. This treatment targets damaged areas to help give you smooth and shiny hair that's easier to style.
A topical hypochlorous acid spray if you need fast-acting relief from skin irritation, redness, itching, or sun sensitivity. This gentle, vegan formula can be used anywhere on your body. Comfort is on its way!
A nongreasy hair wax stick to slick back any flyaways or style your edges. This vegan and cruelty-free formula contains castor oil, which hydrates and smooths.
Some 6–8 hour hydrocolloid nose patches designed to target popped pimples. Plus, it'll be weirdly satisfying to peel this off and see all the gunk it's grabbed.
A hydrating collagen mask you wear overnight so its collagen-rich formula can work its magic. And by "magic," I mean that it can help minimize the look of pores, improve elasticity, hydrate skin, and strengthen the skin's barrier. This hypoallergenic mask also contains helpful probiotics!
A L'Oreal natural glow enhancer infused with glycerin and shea butter for an illuminating tint and a sun-kissed glow that lasts all day long. Go get your shine on!
A nourishing Garnier Fructis anti-frizz serum if the humidity makes your hair look like you've conducted a static electricity experiment. Give your dry locks a healthy dose of hydration — a gift from the argan oil in this serum — for a sleek and smooth appearance free of frizz.
A moisturizing and exfoliating foot peeling spray to help get your feet in tip-top (or should I say "tip-TOE?") shape for sandal season.

It only takes a couple of minutes!
A pair of eyeshadow color removal sponges that'll clean your makeup brushes without water so you can go from applying a neon pink eyeshadow to a bright white eyeshadow without breaking out the makeup brush shampoo OR having to dirty another brush.
An inexpensive in-shower K-beauty hair protein treatment because it'll condition and repair dry, damaged, and over-processed hair in just 5–20 minutes. TBH, I'm already obsessed with your hair evolution!
A highly pigmented E.l.f. Cosmetics camo liquid blush for a soft and dewy flush you'll want the world to see. This buildable and blendable formula is super easy to apply and super lightweight!
A mattifying dry shampoo powder whose benzene-free formula is designed to absorb excess sweat, oil, and dirt without leaving behind a white cast. Refresh your hair with this volumizing powder!
A gentle and fast-working Veet hair removal gel cream, because waxing costs too much and shaving can be both painful and time-consuming. Not only will it get rid of stubborn and unwanted hair, but it'll also hydrate your skin for up to 24 hours (thanks to aloe vera!) and keep you feeling silky and smooth for days to come.
A vegan and cruelty-free First Aid Beauty bump eraser scrub with 10% AHA to help you deal with any "chicken skin" flareups. This will exfoliate your skin and leave it feeling smooth and moisturized!
A rainbow eyeshadow palette that will make just about any lewk possible! This highly pigmented palette contains cool and warm tones as well as mattes and glitters, so go absolutely awf.

Father and daughter found dead on Maine mountain after vanishing during hike

A father and daughter were found dead on Mount Katahdin in Maine, days after they were reported missing. The body of Tim Keiderling, 58, was discovered Tuesday on the Tablelands area of the mountain, Baxter State Park said in a press release. His daughter, Esther Keiderling, 28, was found dead Wednesday afternoon in a wooded area between two trails off the Tablelands following an extensive search. Crews, including game wardens, rangers, and K-9 teams, had searched Mount Katahdin both on the ground and from the air for Esther Keiderling, Baxter State Park said in an earlier news release. Maine Forest Service Helicopters and Maine Army Guard Helicopters assisted. The pair, from Ulster Park, New York, left the Abol Campground on Sunday to hike the summit, the park said. They were last seen around 10:15 a.m. heading in the direction of the summit. Park rangers began searching for them Monday after finding their vehicle in a day-use parking lot. Tim Keiderling was a member of the Bruderhof Communities, a Christian community in which people share all their possessions, including money. His brother-in-law, Heinrich Arnold, released a statement on the community's Facebook page. "It is with a heavy heart that I share the news of the passing of my brother-in-law and fellow Bruderhof member Tim Keiderling," he said. "Although our brother Tim was taken from us all too soon, we know Tim loved Jesus and is now in eternity with Him. We continue to pray for Esther and hope she is found soon."

Hiker Found Dead in Maine, Daughter Is Still Missing

A New York man who went missing while going hiking in Maine over the weekend was found dead on Tuesday--and his daughter remains unaccounted for. A search team recovered the body of Tim Keiderling, 58, of Ulster Park, N.Y., at around 2:45 p.m. ET yesterday, according to a social media post from Baxter State Park. Keiderling and his daughter Esther, 28, were last seen around 10:15 a.m. on Sunday, the day they left their campground at the Maine state park and attempted to hike to the summit of Mount Katahdin. Park rangers began searching for the missing duo on Monday, with game wardens, the Maine Army National Guard, and a search and rescue team with a K-9 crew joining the fold Tuesday, according to Tim's body was found near Mount Katahdin's 5,269-foot summit, but Esther is still missing, with Baxter State Park saying search efforts are still underway to locate her whereabouts. "We know that many of our social media followers share in our deep sadness for the family and friends of Tim Keiderling, and appreciate your support as a teams continues the search for Esther," the park said in a statement. The official Baxter State Park website lists the Katahdin Trail as a "very strenuous climb, no matter which trailhead you choose." The average round trip time for a Katahdin hike is 8-12 hours. Additionally, the park warns that 75% of serious search and rescue incidents, including fatalities, occur because a hiker left the trail. An estimated 80% of all search and rescues happen on a hiker's descent from the summit, rather than on ascent. All Katahdin trails are currently closed until further notice, the park announced.
