44 Products So Good Reviewers Bought Backups Of Them Just In Case
We hope you love our recommendations! Some may have been sent as samples, but all were independently selected by our editors. Just FYI, BuzzFeed and its publishing partners may collect a share of sales and/or other compensation from the links on this page. Amazon I was very adamant about not buying this for the longest time because I am stubborn about "expensive" beauty products, but this is worth every penny and then some. It's so lightweight and layerable, it's foolproof to apply, and I have yet to wear a single outfit it doesn't complement??? I love watching it instantly elevate a casual look or add simple elegance to dressy ones. I wear it every day now, and after weeks of use, I've barely made a dent. Also, and maybe this is just me, but I tend to get pigment on my teeth with a lot of lip products, and I've simply never had an issue with this magic stick. Anyway, watch this TikTok of someone using it on their lips AND cheeks, because I did and oops, this lipstick FELL into my cart. Promising review: "I bought this on a whim and I loved it so much I went back and bought a few more so I could have one at the office, purse, etc. ... you never know when you need lipstick. It's light in color on, not dark like the pigment would lead you believe. It's beautiful on! I tell all my friends to get this!" —Tina M. Get it from Amazon for $25 (also available in pink honey!). Promising review: "The sound quality on these is amazing. Clear, crisp, and loud. I listen to a lot of podcasts when I'm cleaning, doing activities, working, and when I sleep. With the AirPods I would need to turn them up pretty high. These I use the lowest volume level. Phone calls also sound great. The size is perfect, and they haven't fallen out. Charge lasts a LONG time, and the connectivity is flawless. I had them one day before ordering another pair. Literally zero complaints. If you are looking for a reliable, cheap, great sounding pair, these are definitely the way to go." —Emily Ann Get it from Amazon for $25.99+ (available in eight colors). Promising review: "The only thing that works for me!!! It really works, and I have tried SOOO many creams for my neck! I use it twice a day, every day. I already bought extra tubes, so I don't run out of this product. Love it! No scent, a real bonus!" —allung Get it from Amazon for $11.97. Amazon Check out a TikTok of the Olay Super Serum Body Wash in action. Promising review: "I preordered this product for my mother, who has extremely dry skin. This body wash smells lovely and has greatly reduced her discomfort. She has asked me to buy two more bottles, as she is worried when she runs out, it will be out of stock. She has used Oil of Olay products for years, and this is definitely one of her new favorites." —Jennifer Mertens Get it from Amazon for $12.97. Promising review: "Like so many, I found this scent on TikTok. I was a bit skeptical at first but finally got around to trying it. First off, this scent smells amazing! Almost every time I've worn it, I receive compliments. It has a sweet smell, almost like warm cake or sugar cookies with a hint of lemon. With such an affordable price, I would definitely recommend this to anyone curious about trying it." —Chrissy "OH MY GOODNESS!! I was pleasantly surprised by the smell. It smells sooo good and I don't do roll-ons. I went to an event and I got compliments as I walked past. I went back and ordered another one. 🥰😍" —LaRessia Get it from Amazon for $6.70 (available in two styles). Emma Lord/BuzzFeed Check out a TikTok of the E.l.f. tubing mascara in action. I am not a new human to the tubing mascara game, and in fact readily spent $26 on the famous OG blend from Blinc every time it needed replacing. I didn't even love it for the length half as much as the fact that tubing mascara like this genuinely never smudges, but can I just say — regardless of price, the formula blows all the others I've tried out of the water. It gives me way more length and volume than other brands, slides on so much more easily, stays put ALL day, and never, ever smudges. My favorite part, though, is how gently and easily it comes off with soap and water. In the past, other mascara removals have felt rough on my lashes, but this comes off so fast that I'm like ??? was I even mascara a minute ago?? Anyway, I hesitate even writing this review because I want to gatekeep the hell out of this before it sells out, but the world needed to know. I'm a big fan of the brown shade (which is what I'm wearing above!), but it also comes in black and soft black. Promising review: "I have naturally curly hair on my head, but my lashes have chosen violence since I was little. They are straight and even with tons of mascara, if you are looking at me head on, you would think I had no lashes. UNTIL this lovely stuff! Put on one coat, loved the length, and went on with my day. It wasn't until hours later, when I was about to wash off my makeup, that I realized, OH EM GEE, my lashes were curled!!! People, this was HOURS later, and them girls were curled! Of course, I bought several more tubes!" —T.B. Lamb Get it from Amazon for $7 (available in three shades). Promising review: "LOVE. It is super comfortable to wear and is great for supporting my chest when I go on a run. Doesn't collect sweat, very nice and cool material for hotter environments. I have it in so many colors because I love them so much. HIGHLY recommend!" —Cheyenne "After a day of wearing this, I ordered another one. It is buttery soft, offers medium support, and doesn't hurt my shoulders or back in any way. I have fibromyalgia, and it is difficult to find a bra that is supportive and comfortable enough. I'm so happy that I found these and will probably order more soon for summer." —Jessie Get it from Amazon for $22.99+ (available in women's sizes XS–3XL and 29 colors). The color-adaptive formula is designed so one of four shades will work on any skin tone. Promising review: "I usually don't write reviews, but I had to with this product. It does exactly what it says it does! I'm 62-years-old with dark circles and a changing face. So, my tried and true makeup and methods no longer work. Buying and trying new makeup can get expensive, but not this product. For only six bucks, not only did my dark circles disappear, but it didn't hurt my wallet ... at all. I just received this today, tried it, and turned around and bought another one before the price went up! That's how good it was. It's a small container, but a little will go a very long way. This old woman loves this, so don't hesitate for a second. Grab it while you can!" —Lisa Get it from Amazon for $6 (available in three shades). Good Molecules is a small business that specializes in affordable skincare products. Promising review: "I keep my expectations low when purchasing new products. So far, with just a couple of days use, I love it! So very soft and hydrating. It's compact enough that I am purchasing another for my purse and bedside table to put on before sleeping! Diminishes the look of wrinkles for sure!" —Juliet Get it from Amazon for $5.98. Promising review: "I've been buying these for years. They replaced my Ray-Bans that look identical! Fit great and with the price point, I don't have to worry too much with my kids and being on the go!" —Jessica M "I just placed my third order for another two pairs of sunglasses. These are awesome. Very affordable and I get a lot of compliments on them. They offer good protection from the sun, even the ones that don't look that dark. I refuse to buy expensive sunglasses because I lose them constantly (hence the third order). " —Skiing and Malasadas Get a pack of three from Amazon for $15.99+ (clip the 20% off coupon on the product page for this price; available in 16 sets, as well as two-packs and individual pairs). Amazon Promising review: "These earplugs are absolutely amazing for sleeping. They are tiny and comfortable. They block out just enough noise, yet I can still hear my alarm. I will be buying another pair to go in my travel bag. So grateful for such a high quality product at an affordable price!" —Lolita H. Youmans Get it from Amazon for $29.95 (available in eight colors; check out Loop's Amazon Storefront for more options related to concerts, offices, and parenting!). You can read more about how biotin could help with the fullness of hair at Cleveland Clinic — plus, according to the Cleveland Clinic, some researchers have found rosemary oil comparable to Rogaine in helping with hair growth. Promising review: "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 "I really liked this oil. As a matter of fact I purchased a second one because I wanted to make sure I had another one on hand." —Amazon Customer Get it from Amazon for $9.34. Promising review: "The black root powder is amazing. I just bought it and used it and already am buying another because I don't want to be without it. I have tried sprays and powders with little brushes, etc. None of those products were as good as this. It totally covers my natural sunny blonde roots to match my dyed black hair. It looks natural at the hair line, and it doesn't look 'colored/filled in' like some sprays and powders make it look. No smudges or drips when I ran inside from the rain. Not even a need for blending it out in the hair line!" —Andrew R Wilcox Get it from Amazon for $17.95 (available in 14 shades and two sizes). Promising review: "I needed a spare for the car, a couple of weeks after I ordered it, it was pouring while on my way into the office. I was highly impressed by the quality, and I stayed completely dry. This umbrella also dries very quickly, much better than my old one did, so I purchased two more, can't beat the price. Happy customer over here!!!" —Wendy C. Get it from Amazon for $9.85. Check out a TikTok of the dry shampoo in action. Promising review: "I used to have super oily hair. My hairdresser said I needed to start training my hair to go longer between washes, but with very fine blonde hair, it's tough! I have tried just about every dry shampoo spray out there, and most are okay, but not great after day two. I bought this before a trip so I could minimize my liquids, but had zero expectations for it. Guys, let me tell you: it's amazing! Best dry shampoo ever! I went 5 days with this, and my hair never looked greasy, and styled so well! I bought another package as soon as I got home because I don't ever want to run out! 10/10!!!" —Meredith S. Get it from Amazon for $18 (available in brown, dark brown, blonde, and in multipacks and bundles). Amazon Promising reviews: "This is our favorite scent Tree Hut scrub. Always hard to find in stores because it is usually sold out. Thought it was discontinued, but very happy to find it here." —AJ "Seriously, I am in love with sugar scrubs! My skin feels so soft and after, I smell so good. I bought another one because I've used it so much!" —Sarah and Nick Vanalfren Get it from Amazon for $7.97 (also available in 30 other scents). Learn more about different kinds of eye drops and what they can do at Cleveland Clinic. Note that eye drops can potentially mask symptoms of eye conditions, so you should talk to your eye doctor about what's right for you. And according to Mayo Clinic, you should avoid redness-reducing drops if you're looking for dry-eye relief. Check out a frankly STARTLING TikTok of Lumify in action — they are not joking about how fast it works! Promising review: "I love looking bright-eyed and bushy-tailed, and these drops are hands down the best on the market!! I use them every day and even bought another to use while I vacation!!! Buy these!!!!" —Rebecca Get it from Amazon for $11.93. Amazon, Londontown is a small business that specializes in nail care products. Promising review: "This nail veil is so pretty and perfect for a simple, bare nail look! It applies very smoothly, and one to two coats work well. With a top coat, it lasts almost perfectly for about five days, but chips are not very noticeable, so you can easily wear it for longer! I also feel confident in this brand's use of healthier, higher-quality ingredients, which makes it well worth the extra cost. My nails aren't left damaged by this product, and it has become my go-to when I don't have the time for a full-color look but still want my nails to look polished and pretty!" —Sofia K "Absolute favorite nail polish. You can do two coats, but I was in a hurry and like the diluted look. Going to buy another for backup." —Reneea Sargent Get it from Amazon for $20 (available in nine shades). Read more about how biotin shampoo could help with the fullness of hair at Cleveland Clinic. Maple Holistics is a small business that specializes in beauty products with all-natural ingredients. Check out a TikTok of the biotin shampoo in action. Promising review: "So far, so good. I had a thinning bald spot in the middle of my hair. It wasn't too big, but hair has started to grow there since I started using this shampoo. I haven't been using it every day because I'm only home three or four days a week. I plan to buy another bottle so I can keep one at my girlfriend's house so I can use this everyday and see the results." —Eric Get it from Amazon for $13.95 (available in three scents). Psst — reviewers mention this is most effective when paired with a scalp massager to work it into their roots! Jerome Alexander is a small business that specializes in airbrush cosmetic products. HELLO — I found this through a recommendation on a Reddit beauty forum for people in their thirties, and I am OBSESSED. I am not very skilled with makeup and was intimidated by the brush factor, but it's nearly foolproof. This foundation straight-up glosses over my pores and redness and makes my skin look so even-toned and natural that it doesn't look like I used much foundation at all. It's a bit price-y compared to brands I used in the past, but I'm still on my first bottle of it, and it's been three full months. I hope this never stops getting made. It is so lightweight and lovely and has made my makeup routine feel like a TREAT. Promising review: "I tried this on a whim, I saw it on sale and a Facebook friend liked the product. It is amazing. I automatically ordered another the first day I tried it. I will never go back to my old makeup. Two sprays on the brush that is included and within seconds, makeup is on. Truly a game changer, wonderful coverage and texture. I already have several friends hooked as well. ☺️" —Christine Helton Get it from Amazon for $19.99 (available in 12 shades). Check out a TikTok of the Glossmetics Overnight Lip Mask in action. Promising review: "I'm obsessed with lip products. I have tried everything you can imagine, inexpensive and expensive. This is my favorite lip product I've purchased. This gloss is incredible, perfectly moisturizing, and the color is so perfect, a very light natural glowy pink. I just came on Amazon to order a couple more to have one in the car, my purse, nightstand." —Tara Bills Get it from Amazon for $7.99 (available in four flavors). This treatment is for all curl types! Promising review: "Before this product I was buying all types of products for my hair. All the other products dried up my hair and my hair was just flat waves, but this product has given my hair new life. This is all I use on my hair. I do not use any other products combined with this. My curls are more defined and my hair does not look dry. Loved this product so much I ordered two more jugs." —Alitsa V. Get it from Amazon for $9.98. Promising review: "BuzzFeed did me a solid on this one. I've honestly never been into the idea of a blending sponge, assuming it would just soak up most of the makeup. Honestly, this little thing is great. I love that it really blends into the corners around the nose, eyes, etc., especially useful for someone with long nails/extensions. I like to spray it with some glycerine and rose water before blending, and it works beautifully. I won't be going back to applying foundation without this little guy. I bought another to keep at the theater where I work and both have held up great." —OperaGaga Get two from Amazon for $6.97. Promising review: "This product is amazing! I don't even wear foundation anymore because this coverage is great! I don't feel greasy or oily. It makes my redness/blemish scars disappear. I already ordered another just to make sure I never run out!" —Stacy Laake Get it from Amazon for $9.98 (available in six styles). Promising review: "If you're someone who has sensitive skin like me, this product is for you! I highly recommend it. I learned about this product on TikTok and decided to try it out. It's worth the money. The smell is not overbearing, and it reminds you of a refreshing citrusy fruit. I'm very particular about trying skincare products, but this is your go-to. It will have your face feeling refreshed and clean, and there's no white cast." —Elisabeth L. "Clear, refreshing skin is what I get from using this cleansing soap. This feels like butter and luxury when using this. It does not dry out my face and I feel squeaky clean. There is a difference between feeling clean and squeaky clean. I bought a pack, tried it and immediately bought another pack of this product so I wouldn't have to wait for my next reup." —Nitty_Griddy Get a two-pack from Amazon for $14.99 (also available in larger multipacks and with or without a holder). Seraphic Skincare is a small business that specializes in brushes, razors, and other personal care products. Head's up that you should start very gently, and that you really only need to use it two to four times a month to get good results without over-exfoliating and compromising your skin barrier. Promising review: "I had seen advertisements for exfoliating mitts like these and was completely skeptical. Imagine my surprise upon using one during today's shower, finding the material to feel much like sandpaper, and actually seeing the same kind of dead skin removal as in the ads. For a while, I've been having flaky skin on my legs and experiencing a lot of irritation and pain, even when shaving. With just one use, my legs are smooth, flake-free, and I think my next shave will be much more satisfying. I think the blades were getting full of dry skin, and so were not able to perform well. I also feel like my post-shower skincare will be consistently more effective, able to penetrate like it ought. I feel so smooth all over, not itchy! I am putting another pack of these into my cart right now so I have them on hand!" —Lux4Life Get it from Amazon for $9.99 (also available in a set of two). Promising reviews: "Heaven sent for your skin; heavenly scent to enjoy. This feels absolutely amazing going on. Gets absorbed quickly, for a lotion rich with oil. Doesn't leave a greasy feeling, as long as you give it a minute or two to fully absorb. The scent is, for me anyway, like aromatherapy. It smells like an iced sugar cookie, and is a great base layer for fragrance. Very relaxing." —Dragonheart Jo "I love everything about this lotion! I had been using body butter that was ten times as expensive, but I was looking for a cheaper alternative and I am SO glad I found this! I immediately ordered three more bottles." —Samantha Get it from Amazon for $8.98 (available in various other scents). Promising review: "I used these several times for the past year, traveling for business and leisure. It is always a challenge to find an outlet at the airport since some airports do not offer a charging station. Using those types can also be a security risk. That's why I love using these portable chargers. They are lightweight and fit in my travel handbag/or small backpack pocket. The portable chargers take about 30–35 minutes to fully charge if dead. Once charged, they charge fast and hold a charge for many hours." —J "I've had this for nine months, and it still produces a fast charge. Ordering another one today for backup because I take a lot of videos of my grandchild's sports events." —Russath20 Get it from Amazon for $18.99+ (available in two colors). Most reviewers recommend doing this treatment once per week. Promising review: "Caught wind of this on TikTok and decided to give it a whirl. Honestly, it's pretty solid! It really makes my skin look tight and shiny, like I just came out of a professional facial. It's an overnight mask, so yeah, it does have to stay on for a while, which is a bit of a hassle, but the payoff? Totally worth it. My skin feels more elastic, and the pores look minimized too. If you don't mind the long wear time, this mask could be a game changer for your skincare routine!" —Nala "I wasn't sure about the claims that the mask went from white to transparent over the hours you were wearing it, but it really does! I was shocked at how moisturized my face was afterward. I didn't sleep in it overnight but wore it for the recommended minimum (about four hours), and it was mostly transparent by that time. I went ahead and got another box — this is going in my face care arsenal for sure." —Mom of Kids Get a set of four from Amazon for $19 (also available in a set of 16). Promising review: "I love it. It's so cute. You can add on more or less to make it light or heavy stain. It smells so nice, too. It stays on and dries the same amount as the expensive one I bought. Good quality and texture of stain. It also doesn't dry my lips like the expensive one that I spent like 28 almost 30 bucks for. This one keeps it moist. I even bought another one." —Ale Soto Get it from Amazon for $6.20+ (available in four shades and combo packs). Clean Skin Club is a US-based small business specializing in hygienic, vegan, and cruelty-free skincare products. Promising review: "I absolutely love these. I saw these on TikTok and bought them. I will be buying more. They are great for my face. Really soft and VERY durable and strong, even when wet. You can wash your face [with it] or just dry your face, either way, it's the best option." —Sahara "These are so easy to grab and you KNOW they are clean from bacteria. Already placing another order for more. I wash my face twice a day, so I go through a box and some change each month!" —Ashlee Ruffin Get a pack of 50 from Amazon for $17.05. Amazon Touchland is a small business that specializes in hand sanitizers. Check out a TikTok of Touchland in action. Promising review: "Touchland's hand sanitizers are absolutely beautiful! Not only is the packaging functional for travel, but it's pretty! Absolutely no issues with the product or the design of the packaging leaking, and it's extremely easy to use! No sticky residue, and your hands feel completely hydrated and soft after each use. I'm especially impressed with this perk, considering most hand sanitizers leave your skin feeling tight and dry. No leaks, great hydration, phenomenal fragrance…. what's not to LOVE!!!? 🤍 SPOIL YOURSELF, NO EXCUSES NECESSARY!" —Briana R. "This is the best scented hand sanitizer you can buy. It has various flavors but it is expensive. I just bought several at a time so that I could have some on hand." —Nea S. Get it from Amazon for $16 (available in Lily of the Valley and Rose scents; check out Touchland's Amazon storefront for more options). Amazon, Promising review: "This product is a favorite and has become a staple in my daily routine. This is the kind of product that you buy and then tell all your friends about. I will be repurchasing another to keep in my purse and one for my car. It's just that great! This product gets rid of all my face grease. It doesn't mess up any makeup on my face and makes a HUGE difference. If you find your face getting greasy often, this is the product for you. It's also super easy to clean! If you are unsure about buying this product, I say do it! You won't have any regrets." —Abby Dunlap Get it from Amazon for $8.12. Check out a TikTok of the Briotech spray in action. Promising review: "This spray is amazing. I had a rash on my face and it disappeared after one use of this spray. I had a stye in my eye, and the skin around the eye was irritated. This spray fixed not only the irritation but the stye went away. as well. Any sort of blemish or acne is taken care of with this simple, inexpensive spray. Great for after-sun care or workout redness. Everyone loves Tower 28's expensive SOS spray. The contains hypochlorous acid, which is the exact same ingredient in the Briotech spray for much less money. It's a miracle worker." —Squid466 "Love this product! Used it on my daughter's acne, which wasn't bad, but wow, how fast it went away. She's tried many products but didn't seem to work. Just ordered another bottle!" —L Get it from Amazon for $16.49+ (available in five sizes and in multipacks). Amazon Promising review: "I bought four. When I have a flare-up, I can use this at night and it literally makes my skin look fresh and bright. No redness. No irritation. Some tingling at first where there's problems. I have extremely sensitive skin even in middle age. 😟 But this has been a game changer. I can alternate with this and other products. But of course, I always have to use sunscreen. My pores are also smaller when I use this." —KK Get it from Amazon for $4. Promising review: "I'm so impressed with these that I used them once and I ordered another set of whitening pens. So easy to use. I have one at home, at work, and in my car." —Jorge J Sanchez Get a two-pack from Amazon for $10.77. Promising reviews: "I saw this on YouTube and immediately wanted to try it. I have curly hair, which I love, but sometimes I just want to put it in a ponytail and go on with my day. This is a time saver for all those little hairs that tend to stick up or don't want to stay in place. I'm not a fan of hairspray, and this even smells nice. I believe it's a light coconut smell. Overall satisfied, and you don't need to use much. I took it with me on vacation, and it saved me time in the evening from having to deal with bad hair days." —Blanca Perez "This really helps keep my wispy flyaways down without making my hair look greasy or oily! Really love this stuff and will be ordering another tube to keep at work." —Tanya Get it from Amazon for $7.19 (also available in multipacks). Check out a TikTok of the Nyx Pore Filler in action. Promising review: "I bought this as a cheaper alternative to Benefit's Porefection. It is very similar, but I feel like I have to use a bit more than I did with Benefit's product. It does work great at minimizing the appearance of pores by itself and with makeup. I've already bought some more!!!!" —Jessica Get it from Amazon for $9.28. Dermora is a small business that specializes in eye masks and foot peels. Promising review: "I have to say I was a skeptic on these but bought them anyway on a whim after seeing them on The Today Show. Much to my surprise I found they really did what they said they do. The puffiness under my eyes was substantially reduced, and my skin felt much softer and moisturized. They're a great addition to your self-care." —janiem "I just ordered two more. My skin is glowing. Perfect buy. I would recommend and I'm seeing results." —Andy Get 15 pairs from Amazon for $12.25 (also available in two other sets). Amazon Stasher is a small business that specializes in storage and meal prep products. Psst — people use these for travel products too, especially for toiletries they're worried about leaking in their bags! Promising review: "I love my new color. I must have 30 Stasher bags by now and love them. They are so convenient and work really well. One can see exactly what they have in the fridge or freezer at a glance. They keep frost away as well. Highly recommend!" —Sabrina "Worth the money! Very durable, leakproof, and I just absolutely love that it's reusable and dishwasher-safe!!! No chemicals leaking into my food. I'm [so] happy about this purchase that I bought another one! Highly recommend. Good for camping, meal prepping, or rationing food. Do yourself a favor and buy one!" —mary habib Get it from Amazon for $9 (available in 19 colors; check out Stasher's Amazon storefront for more sizes and styles). Promising reviews: "My skin feels like the bottom of a newborn. This is so great. The natural ingredients are the best and it leaves my skin with a natural glow and softness that I have never felt before. I have aging skin, and it is just a great product. I use it on my face and my hair on wash days. I am going to order three more just so I don't run out." —Divine Get it from Amazon for $12.99 (also available in three- and six-packs). Read more about acupressure and nausea at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center. Promising review: "I was on a ferry crossing the English Channel, and it was a bit rough, and I was down. I got nauseous and had to lay down near the center of the ship. A tour bus driver gave me a pair of these bands to wear. I was skeptical, but being too sick to argue, I just put them on. After maybe 10 minutes, I felt way better. I was able to get up, go outside, and look out on the water. I got another pair a while back so I could always keep one in my luggage and one in my backpack so that I'd never forget them." —A Shopper Get a set of two from Amazon for $8.16. Promising review: "Ever since having my daughter seven months ago I've experienced hormonal acne like no other. I'm very pleased with this product! I've been getting a lot of acne on my chin area in particular recently and I put the patch on after I wash my face right before bed. Then I'll peel it off the next morning to see that it has brought the white head to the surface and the pimple itself is not nearly as painful or red. I've already purchased a second box as backup." —Selena Hickman Get it from Amazon for $12.99. Amazon, I bought these on Prime Day, which is the only day I will buy leggings because I hate wearing leggings with a burning passion. My "I'm not like other girls" bit is that for some reason I am always comfier in jeans than leggings. BUT NOT THESE!!! They on. The fabric is so lightweight and breathable that it feels like a whisper. The band is so deceptively comfortable that sometimes I'm like, "Am I still wearing them??" I use them to run outdoors because that is the only circumstance I'll wear leggings, and I'm happy to report after several washes, they are durable and compressive enough to withstand workouts. They would be excellent for lounging if I weren't wired in this odd anti-legging way. I have already bought two more pairs and made my friends buy them, too. Promising review: "Super comfy. I usually don't write reviews, I tried this first before buying Lulu, and these are the most comfortable leggings for every day and even for workouts. Highly recommended!" —Criselle Johnson "So good I had to order another pair and have another pair in my cart. Good quality, won't disappoint." —Claudia Get them from Amazon for $29 (available in women's sizes XXS–XXL, two inseams, and 22 styles). Reviews have been edited for length and/or clarity.

The best face moisturizers of 2025, recommended by dermatologists and experts
Of all the anti-aging skin care products you can buy — from eye creams to serums to toners to exfoliators — facial moisturizers are probably the most common and familiar. Many of us grew up watching our mothers and grandmothers apply some type of face cream to soothe dryness, including familiar classics like Pond's or Oil of Olay. But when it comes to finding the best face moisturizer today, it's easy to feel a little lost. Many of us still don't even understand why we need it, let alone the number of options on the market. But never fear: While most of us might not understand the ins and outs of moisturizers for a healthy glow, experts do: "Every skin-care routine should include gentle, soothing and hydrating ingredients that help maintain the skin's protective moisture barrier," says Dr. Kiran Mian, a dermatologist at Hudson Dermatology and Laser Surgery in New York City. "Moisturizers specifically work to help add moisture to dry skin and protect the skin's barrier to prevent it from drying out again." The following are our seven favorite moisturizers of the year, and they suit a wide variety of skin concerns. Best face moisturizer overall Factors to consider when choosing a face moisturizer How we tested Other face moisturizers we tried Face moisturizers FAQs Update, Mar. 20, 2025: We checked all product prices and availability, and added a handy specs comparison chart at the bottom. Our number one pick for the best face moisturizer remains unchanged. (back to top) (back to top) Skin type: Before purchasing a moisturizer, you should first know both your skin type — normal, dry, oily, combination, sensitive — and what that means for your individual hydration needs. If you can't tell just by looking, a dermatologist or aesthetician can help. Budget: Once you've established skin type, you can start looking at value: How much you can afford to spend on a product you'll use twice a day? Remember, as with all skin care, consistency is key, so choose a face moisturizer you can afford to regularly restock. (back to top) As two over-40 beauty editors with decades of experience testing skin care products and very different skin (Marie's is more oily and acne-prone, Jennifer's is drier and, regrettably, in some places, crepey) we already had a few favorite face moisturizers. But we also tried more than two dozen new products for this story, evaluating their efficacy, absorption rate, texture, scent and value. We also considered (and included) expert picks we both love. (back to top) SkinMedica HA5 Rejuvenating Hydrator tops many best lists and the formulation itself is fine, but we found the bottle to be laughably small, especially at its $150-plus price. Beauty experts and influencers rave about the Outset Restorative Niacinamide Night Cream and, while the ingredients themselves are high quality, and we love other products from this line, this moisturizer pilled and was impossible to use under makeup. (back to top) "Moisturizers are an essential step in skin care because they can help reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, and promote a more supple appearance in the skin," says Dr. Julia Schwartz, a board-certified dermatologist and adviser for telehealth company Ro. Generally, thinner moisturizers are out — your parched skin needs a little extra oomph. "I recommend thicker, richer formulas for dry skin, like Cetaphil Moisturizing Cream," Mian says. Once you've reached a certain age, a thicker formula may also be a good bet. "I like cream moisturizers for people with mature skin," says Schwartz. "A thicker cream formula can help lock in more hydration which, again, reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles." The experts we spoke with recommended twice-daily application — gently rubbing a quarter-sized amount all over your face, avoiding the eyes and mouth. This will lock in moisture and seal in any other skin care products (like vitamin C serums or retinol), while also boosting hydration. At night, moisturizer should be the last step in your skin care routine. In the morning, it should be the second-to-last step, before sunscreen. "I recommend that people generally keep their skin care routines as simple as possible to make it easier for them to follow," Schwartz says. "If your moisturizer is working well for you, not promoting an overproduction of sebum while also keeping your skin hydrated and skin barrier supported, you can use the same moisturizer for day and night and all year round."
