1. A vegan and paraben-free self-tanner for anyone who wants to achieve that ✨ sunkissed glow ✨ without laying out to do it. This tanner delivers results in as little as an hour, and they'll look so good *everyone* will be asking when you squeezed in a vacation!
www.amazon.com
Promising review: 'If you use St. Tropez tan products or any fake tanner, do yourself a favor and try this. This stuff is AWESOME. Dries quickly, lasts longer, does NOT make your skin stinky, applies evenly, and you get a fair amount of product!! Other tanners I've used become VERY noticeable when they start fading. Gross hand lines, patchy white spots, etc., but not this stuff. The best one-hour tan I have ever used!' — Review Writer
Get it from Amazon for $7.09+ (available in 12 shades).
2. The bestselling Sol De Janeiro Bum Bum body cream that boasts a blend of caffeine-packed guarana extract and coconut oil to help *visibly* firm and moisturize skin, so you can step out in your shortest shorts feeling as confident as ever. And it won't hurt that it also smells ah-may-zing with creamy, delectable notes of salted caramel, pistachio, and vanilla! ✨
Caffeine has a number of skincare benefits, including brightening and temporarily reducing the appearance of stretch marks and cellulite, if that's something you're looking to do! You can read more about the skincare benefits of caffeine at the Cleveland Clinic.
Promising review: "I am 60 and I could not get rid of the cellulite on my legs. I started using this product six weeks ago and can noticeably see a difference. I apply morning and evening, before bed for optimal results. It goes on smooth and has a creamy, nonsticky feel. The smell is dreamy, and even my husband has commented on the improvement. Make sure you apply in a circular motion for optimal coverage, absorption and circulation." — Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $24+ (available in three sizes).
3. A hydrating lip-plumping gloss duo featuring a ginger-infused plumping gloss to deliver expensive-looking volume to your pout by day, and a secondary, minty overnight mask so your lips can be nourished and softened after a full day of giving 90s no-makeup makeup perfection. No fillers necessary!

4. An adorable polar bear hydrating eye stick created with Icelandic glacial water to help reduce puffiness, tighten skin, and make dark circles seem as if they were never there. It's the perfect recipe for anyone who could use a little TLC during their morning (or evening!) routine after a long night of binge-watching or celebrating.
Pro-tip: It works even faster if you pop it in the fridge for a bit before use!
Promising review:" This stuff is magic! I purchased this product on a recommendation from a BuzzFeed list, and was not disappointed! I have not been sleeping well due to stress, and the first day I used it, my coworkers commented how well rested I looked! I told them about it and all of them ordered one for themselves. Very impressed!" — Saminyah Marcelin
Get it from Amazon for $9.99 (also available in two other versions and sets).
5. And a Beauty of Joseon eye serum to add to your daily skincare routine and help disappear under-eye bags and dark circles for good. It boasts a blend of ginseng, retinol, and niacinamide, which work together to help improve brightness and skin elasticity, as well as reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. And we can't forget about the signature glow it'll bring to your complexion!
Promising review:" This stuff is magical and the bottle size is perfect because you don't need a lot of cream for under your eyes. This size will literally last months. I've only used this for three days but I've already noticed a difference. My under eyes feel super soft and hydrated and the best part is the cream is lightweight and rubs in nicely so it doesn't feel like you have heavy goop under your eyes." — Phil
Get it from Amazon for $16.99+ (available in two sizes).
6. Gold Bond's neck- and chest-firming cream, which is made with salicylic acid for exfoliating, and glycerin and aloe to make sure your skin stays hydrated throughout the day. After a few applications (for some reviewers in as little as a week), you may start seeing improvement in the elasticity and texture of your skin, as well as a glowy, smoother complexion!
Promising review: "My dry neck and the annoying itchiness I used to experience have completely gone away after using this cream. It's not only soothing, but it also feels like it's really nourishing my skin. The firming benefits are a bonus! I highly recommend this product to anyone dealing with dryness or discomfort in their neck and chest area. It's become a must-have in my skincare routine." — JAcosta
Get it from Amazon for $11.97.
7. The cult-favorite Cosrx snail mucin repairing essence — yup, the main ingredient in the lightweight formula is snail secretion, but it's lowkey genius because that glow-bringing slime helps hydrate and restore dry, dull skin. Once you see the results for yourself, you'll want to shout your new favorite skincare "secret" from the rooftops!
www.amazon.com
Promising review:"My skin dries out severely during the winter, and I have to constantly use Vaseline to keep it moisturized (normal cream doesn't work on me). Imagine my surprise when my SO tried to put snail goo on me. Eww!! I resisted for weeks refusing to use this product as she constantly vouched for its abilities. After a month, I finally gave in, and boy, it was amazing! My hands feel more moisturized than ever for longer, and it doesn't leave a disgusting, greasy feel like Vaseline. Take it from a once-nonbeliever: You have to try this. Even if it doesn't work for you, you paid a fraction of what you would've paid for any other name-brand moisturizers." — Kyoko Ozaki
Get it from Amazon for $19.20.
8. The alcohol-free, dermatologist-approved Briotech topical spray featuring hypochlorous acid — aka the main ingredient in the more expensive Tower 28 SOS Spray — for targeting the kinds of bacteria that lead to skin irritation, acne, and other blemishes. And according to reviewers, you can even use it to offer non-drying relief for skin problems like dryness, dermatitis (even on your scalp!), piercing bumps, and toenail fungus!
Promising review: " What is this sorcery? Okay, so I'm not gonna lie. I thought all of the before and after pics were fake, but I was desperate so I bought this stuff anyway. I had been dealing with an irritation bump for almost three months that I couldn't get rid of, so I did some research and tried a variety of home remedies, none of which worked. Then I stumbled upon the Briotech spray and saw the before and after pictures and wanted soooo badly to believe them. I also didn't want to get my hopes up, so I wrote them off as fake. I bought this stuff anyway (again, I was desperate) and I'm SO glad I did. I bought it on Sept. 5 and my bump (which was huge and awful) was completely gone on Sept. 25. I'm still in shock that it worked, but i'm so happy it did. Buy this! Stick with it and I promise you won't regret it!" — iamericadelaney

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
Promising review:"So I initially started using another kojic acid soap to help with my hyperpigmentation due to shaving my face because I have PCOS and have developed hirsutism. I'm usually a 'full face of makeup at all times' kind of girl because of my insecurities, but this soap has given me a new confidence. I used it for the first time Saturday night and instantly saw the results of this soap. My skin looks so much more even." — Adrienne Jerkins
Get a two-pack from Amazon for $11.99.

www.amazon.com
BTW — it's also perfectly sized for carrying on the go in a purse, pocket, or toiletry kit.
Promising review: "I am so glad I gave this product a try, as it works amazingly well on my fine, oily hair. I have used almost every dry shampoo product on the market, and this is by far the best one yet. My hair looks beautiful, and I can now go nearly a week without washing (while still having absolutely gorgeous hair)! I used to have to wash my hair every other day when I was using my former favorite dry shampoo (and it made my scalp itch on day two). This product is definitely worth a try; it may soon be your favorite!" — Melanie Havert
Get it from Amazon for $12.59+ (available in six shades).
11. A teeth whitening kit that'll help remove years of staining from coffee, dark sodas, red wine, and more so you can get back to showing off a more brilliant smile! This kit uses LED lighting to help activate a carbamide peroxide gel, which starts working its powerful brightening and whitening magic during the first 30-minute treatment.

I like how the instructions are so easy and clear to read and understand! The awesome packaging is a major plus as well. My favorite part is the built-in timer, and there's no long wire so I can walk around and do things while it's working its magic!" — Mayra
Get it from Amazon for $39.99.
12. A powerful Paula's Choice 2% BHA salicylic acid exfoliant, which has reviewers obsessed over how effectively it helps minimize pores, eliminate blackheads and dead skin, and even reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Trust us, it's earned over 78,000 5-star ratings with 5,000 reviews (and counting!) for a darn good reason.
www.amazon.com
Promising review:"This product helped clear my skin after I struggled with many other products. I was struggling with what I thought was milia on my forehead. I have tried exfoliating with all sorts of different products. I read a review on Reddit and thought I would give it a try. So glad I did. I put this on and saw results in on night. I honestly love how well this product worked for me." — Nicole
Get it from Amazon for $14+ (available in two sizes).

Reviewers even the quality compare it to the Rare Beauty blush, except it's literally a fraction of the price!
Promising review: "Imagine sweeping on a blush that feels like a little whisper of color, just enough to give your cheeks that perfect, healthy glow. That's what you get with the E.l.f. blush. The formula is silky smooth, blends like a dream, and it sits on your skin so naturally, it's like a second skin.

To use this, simply presoak your feet, apply the gel, let sit for 5–10 minutes, and rinse! It's recommended to use this product in tandem with a foot file afterward to make sure no gel residue or dead skin remains!
Promising review:"I don't think I have EVER left an Amazon review in all the years I've been a member. I have always had rough heels since I was a kid. Grew up in south Florida and was always outside barefoot. I get pedicures regularly and I have NEVER had my feet left as soft as this! I soaked my feet it warm water for 10 minutes, (didn't dry them) put this on for about 5 minutes, then used the foot cheese grater on it and OMG! I couldn't believe it! Smooth as a baby's butt! I put Aquaphor and socks on afterwards. So amazing that I ordered my daughter one. This is better than what they use in salons. You won't regret buying this." – Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $9.99 (available in three scents and as a two-pack).
15. A glycolic acid and retinol gel peel that helps speed up how quickly your skin produces new cells, lifting away acne scarring and hyperpigmentation remnants from your most recent hormonal breakout, leaving you with plump, hydrated skin. Aesthetician-level results without leaving your house? Your glowing complexion will be the proof in the pudding when people ask — and they will — where you got it done!
www.amazon.com
Note: It's highly recommended to try the 10% or 30% strength before using the higher strengths.
Make sure to follow the instructions carefully and take your time because glycolic acid is strong and can possibly irritate the skin. And because it contains retinol, make sure to use a sunscreen of SPF 30 or higher!
Promising review:"This stuff is absolutely incredible. I finally decided to try an at-home peel in conjunction with retinoids. Take a look at the photos I posted [above] and you'll see how happy I am with my progress (after photo on the right taken five months later). I've used this peel once a week and have had incredible results. Previously I did three rounds of Fraxel, which only resulted in severe pain, peeling, and grossness. Oh yes, and an empty savings account. For 30 bucks every few months I achieved better results than I got at a dermatologist's office." — Meredith
Get it from Amazon for $19.95+ (available in four strength levels).
16. Or a budget-friendly prescription-strength Differin retinoid gel designed to tackle clogged pores and inflammation, making it perfect for anyone who experiences unruly acne or breakouts.

Promising reviews:"Look I don't know what kind of magical potion is in this little bottle but I've used it approximately four times in the past week and my skin is GLOWING. My pores are suddenly nonexistent and my blackheads have shrunk. This stuff is amazing. Also it's really moisturizing and not as irritating as other retinoids I have used in the past. The bottle is smaller than I was expecting but it is worth every penny. Great stuff. 11/10." — Demi
"This stuff actually works. I work in a spa and I've tried dozens of different products that cost five times the price to try to clear up my acn- prone skin and NOTHING has worked as well as Differin gel. One of my esthetician coworkers recommended it to me and dang if she wasn't right. It will dry out your skin pretty badly so make sure you have and use a good moisturizer but my skin cleared up in less than two weeks and I'm still amazed." — Rin Wisell
Get it from Amazon for $14.35+ (available in four sizes).
17. O'Keeffe's Lip Repair — from the brand behind the bestselling Working Hands and Healthy Feet creams — to help heal and repair dry, cracked, or chapped lips with a moisturizing blend of beeswax, shea butter, and almond oil. Over 9,000 people rated it 5 stars, and I bet they were smiling while they did it with their moisturized lips!
Promising review: "When I travel, my lips get so chapped! It's painful. I found this product when I searched for something for extremely chapped lips. I've used other O'Keeffe's products so I trusted the brand. I used this as directed in the morning and before bed and my lips healed up faster than ever. Also, on the next trip I went on, I took it with me and used it daily. My lips stayed healthy and didn't get chapped at all. This stuff is magic and I won't go anywhere without it now." — Anna C. Adams

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
Here's what former BuzzFeed Shopping writer Ciera Velarde has to say:"I've used this specific brand for years now and have found them to be the best at reducing the size and redness of breakouts! Whenever I notice a zit popping up, I put one of these on right before bed, and it stays put all night, even when I toss and turn a lot. By morning, it's much less noticeable and practically nonexistent when I cover the zit with makeup. It's such a great practically zero-effort way to treat blemishes!"
Promising review: "I absolutely love these pimple patches! They are a game-changer when it comes to treating breakouts. The patches stick well to my skin and are virtually invisible, so I can wear them during the day without feeling self-conscious. They work quickly to reduce the size and redness of pimples, often overnight, and help prevent me from picking at my skin. The patches are gentle, don't irritate my skin, and are super easy to remove. I've noticed a significant improvement in my skin since I started using them, and they've become a staple in my skincare routine. If you're dealing with breakouts, I highly recommend these pimple patches — they're effective, discreet, and really help speed up the healing process!" — Ellie Stuart

They are perfection, I use their extra strength lash glue and I can easily get 10–14 days out of a set. I also use sizes 10mm-16mm for a beautiful natural look and I get so many compliments. OFTEN people think I get professional lash extensions!!! If they ever went out of business I'd be so lost without them!! Just do it already treat yourself. PS — Give yourself so time to adjust to this method before deciding if you like it. Watch some videos to figure out how to put them on. It's worth it I promise." — Stephanie R.

Read our Elizavecca CER-100 Collagen Coating Hair Protein Treatment review to learn more about why my colleague calls it "the miracle product I've been searching for."
Promising reviews:"I have 4c hair and was looking for a protein treatment for my thin and fragile hair. I had recently used a product in my hair that had so much alcohol in it that it wreaked havoc on my hair, leaving it pretty damaged. I was skeptical about this product because I had never seen anyone with my hair type use it. Boy, was I wrong to doubt this product; it left my hair looking and feeling beautiful. I highly recommend it to anyone natural or with curly hair." — Therese-Claire
" I have super fine, blonde hair. I've run through likely hundreds of different hair masks and leave-in conditioners over the years, only to have them cling to my hair like nothing else, often leaving it feeling waxy and heavy.

Promising review: "This product is amazing! Truly a miracle product. I had an AWFUL keloid forming near my nose piercing about six weeks after getting it done, and it was getting bigger and more irritated by the day. Nothing was helping. I bought this and started using it, and in less than two weeks, my huge keloid was completely gone! I was definitely skeptical and a little nervous when it didn't seem to be getting noticeably smaller after a week, but then, the second week, it started totally disappearing, so give it some time to work if your bump is on the larger side. If you remain patient and apply it twice a day, it should do the trick!" — Jordan Caprigno

I'm African American and have curly, kinky, coils... in between the realm of type 3/4 idk to be honest. All I know, is that when I went to detangle my fro after a long day, this brush easily slid through. I had to double take! I didn't have to pretangle with a wide tooth comb I just dove right in. My hair is THICK! After each stroke I kept looking at the brush like, 'What type of sorcery is this!?' And to top it off ZERO BREAKAGE!!! Buy this brush!!!!!" — Amazon Customer

Promising review: "I would use hairspray to hold my eyebrows and throughout the day I would sweat through it and it wouldn't last. I tried this because the price was great and I'm gladI did. This product is awesome. I've had it on my brows for a nine-hour shift and they are still in place! It doesn't dry and get flakey, nor does it feel uncomfortable on the skin. Lastly, I use brow powder and this does NOT affect the look of the powder nor does it smudge it. I will FOREVER buy this product." — Shelby

Tend to your tresses with the TLC they deserve and you might just end up feeling like Rapunzel...after escaping the tower, obviously.

Promising reviews: "Legit magic in a bottle. Wish I could order this stuff by the gallon. Took a chance on this because I was desperate, having already spent so much money on luxury and drugstore products with little results. I use this as a pre-treatment on scalp and ends before I wash hair. Scalp has improved dramatically. I feel like there's not as much breakage/fallout, and my ends are fuller. (This is after like six months, but my scalp was better immediately.)" — Claire Blanchard
"I hardly write reviews.. but this one deserves to be written about!! My hair was falling out a LOT, and somehow just with the FIRST application onwards, I started seeing less fall. And now, after four months, I can see hair growth as well, and my hair is already looking thicker!! And I've been using it only once a week.. just a few drops and massaging in. Omg, how can anything be so simple and yet so effective!!! Amazing! Amazing!!! Whoever invented this.. hats off!!" — Dee

BuzzFeed Shopping editor Maitland Quitmeyer says:"This is my current favorite concealer (after swearing by the Nars Radiant Creamy one) — I have major dark circles under my eyes due to allergies and need a really brightening and buildable concealer that doesn't crease or cake. This is the ticket!"
Promising review:"Never buying anything else! Magic! Creamy is the perfect word for this product. The color is just perfect. Goes on so smooth and luscious. Totally lightweight — doesn't look or feel like I'm wearing makeup — but also great coverage of blemishes. Love... never buying anything else!" — cassietheburr

34. A tub of Vanicream to help soothe dry, itchy skin all over. A gentle paraben-, fragrance-, and formaldehyde-free formula makes this skincare superstar earn a gold star (actually, it's a blue seal, but still) from the National Eczema Association. We love to see it.

Promising review:"My son has eczema and sensitive skin. We had tried a lot of different moisturizer and didn't work out for him. Then our doctor suggested us to try Vanicream, it works like magic! You can actually feel the moisture for the skin, like an extra protection on his skin. And my son's eczema gets better too! We have been using this moisturizer ever since." — Kylie
