A bottle of Elizavecca hair treatment, which, like Olaplex, has repairing properties like collagen and protein extracts to aid in hair health.

A sulfate- and paraben-free dry shampoo *foam* because washing, conditioning, and drying your hair is a LOT — and you don't wanna do a lot!

The formula is incredibly hydrating, leaving my skin feeling soft and smooth after every use. It lathers beautifully and has a lovely, light fragrance that isn't overpowering. After just a few uses, I noticed my skin looked more radiant and felt deeply moisturized. The addition of serums in the body wash is a game-changer my skin feels nourished, and I no longer need to apply lotion right after showering. Highly recommend this to anyone looking for a luxurious, skin-loving body wash!" — Darina Get it from Amazon for $12.97 (available in three styles). 2.

This moisturizer has a gel-like consistency and comes with a scooper, making it very easy to apply. You get a decent-sized jar of moisturizer for the price, and the moisturizer is pretty thick. Although it is sticky, I would say it absorbs into your skin pretty quickly. It may leave a slight sticky residue behind, but I think overall it is amazing for all skin types. After using this in the a.m. before sunscreen, I noticed my skin really glow and feel smooth! I had gifted a jar to my 60-year-old mother and she had told me how her skin felt like a baby's bum the next morning!" — tracey + kiwi Get it from Amazon for $19.90. 4.

I left it on all night, and now it's mid-day, and my skin still looks and feels amazing, even with makeup over it! I love this brand and all its products! I'm 46 and trying to fight aging, and Corsx is the most cost-effective and gives the best results! This mask was thick, stayed on all night and I'm a side sleeper, and I woke up to what felt like new skin! It's amazing! For the price, it's definitely worth it!!!" — Babe03 Get a pack of three from Amazon for $15. 5. E.l.f.'s Holy Hydration!

I've added it into my daily routine for the past three or four days and there is such a lovely glow to my skin now! And it's so so hydrating!!!! I typically like a really glowy and moisturized dewy makeup anyways, so this is just perfect for me. I also really like the buildable quality. I also typically have very sensitive skin and I haven't noticed any redness or irritation or anything like that. If I notice any breakouts I'll report back, but so far this serum is a new favorite!" — Kyler Get it from Amazon for $11.97. 6.

Highly recommend!" — Shay Get it from Amazon for $7.97 (available in three scents). 7. Sol De Janeiro's Delicia Drench Body Butter that'll shower you with fast-absorbing moisture that lasts all day long while working to improve your skin barrier. It also smells downright delightful, like the Cheirosa 59 body mist, to be exact — if you don't know, it's a tantalizing blend of vanilla orchid, sugared violet, and sandalwood. You're welcome!

I live in Florida and the summers here are brutal, especially being a plus-size [person] with thick thighs. I used to avoid wearing skirts, dresses, and short shorts because I'd chafe so badly and my thighs would be irritated for days. Since I've started using Chafe Cushion, I can wear all my cute summer clothes without the pain of chafing. I've also noticed a difference in my skin's appearance.

Eight Saints is a woman-owned small business that uses only eight plant-based ingredients in their skincare products. Promising review: "Feels fantastic on your skin. It spreads nicely and soaks right in as if your face has just been cleansed rather than having put a moisturizer on. Your face feels clean, not suffocated like so many other creams. Similar to a gel, yet even more lightweight. It feels like it belongs there, not like a foreign body clinging to your skin.

You'll wish you could go back in time and kiss yourself for this one. Promising review: "This lip glaze is beyond amazing. I've used $32–$39 dollar lip products and they do not compare to the new Maybelline oil balm glaze. It is astounding! I received this on a Saturday and used it, by Sunday my lips are so smooth and plump. This lip glaze is amazing, I can't say it enough. The color is awesome and glides on smooth. I'm 58 years old and this product passes all products. I am stocking up on this for summer! This will be so amazing for winter as well." — Janice Get it from Amazon for $8.99 (available in nine shades). 13.

I have also tested it on the weekend in instances where I would normally wear some sort of cream sunscreen on my face, but this seems to work just as well. For folks having concerns about coverage issue, I understand. I have been applying it by going in many circles over my face and seem to be successful with no problems.

This also makes them PERFECT for traveling!" — Scout7575 Get a set of 50 from Amazon for $13.59. 19.

After several hours in the sun, there's no redness or irritation, which speaks to the product's effectiveness.

Velamo Advanced Beauty is a small biz that specializes in personal care products. Promising review:"The older I get, the more I need extra moisture in my face. I've been reading about this product and saw so many "good" reviews that I thought I'd give it a try. I only wish I had discovered this product years ago. I've only been using it a couple of weeks and have noticed a big difference in my fine lines and dryness, especially around my sensitive eye area. There's no scent, which is a huge plus. I have sensitive skin and it doesn't irritate it at all. I will continue using this product for as long as I keep seeing good results. Bonus, the price is very affordable." — Eleanor Ruby Get it from Amazon for $19.99 (also available in two other styles). 24. An Italian Bergamot Body Bar from Cremo, the creators of the internet-famous Baccarat Rouge 540-inspired body wash — enough said.

Promising review: "I absolutely love shower oil. I believe it to be the best beauty hack that has yet to be cherished. I've tried many kinds, and this is by far one of the best shower oils I've ever used. I feel like a goddess after using it. I suggest having a nice Korean body scrub and then following up with a nice steamy shower and this product! Luxurious baby!" — Destini Rogers Get it from Amazon for $18.99. 26. Byoma's Phyto-Mucin Glow Serum, aka a new holy-grail product from the makers of the cult-fave Milky Toner! It leaves your skin feeling plump thanks to hydrating hyaluronic acid and panthenol!

Amazon This vegan, cruelty-free formula is suitable for all skin types and is non-comedogenic and free from alcohol, fragrance, and soap. Promising review: "Absolutely love! I wanted to give this Phyto-Mucin serum a try as I really dislike snail mucin, plus it's packed with other great skincare ingredients like panthenol, hyaluronic acid, and peptides. Unlike snail mucin, this product isn't sticky. It spreads evenly on your skin, locking in all my previous serums. It absorbs beautifully, leaving the perfect glow. This adds the perfect amount of hydration, where you can either let this stand on its own or apply a moisturizer after. I highly recommend giving this a try!" — Troy H.

32 Affordable Beauty Products So Good That Reviewers Say They Won't Use Anything Else

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. You will also swear your allegiance to this beloved "flossing" toothbrush and game-changing $7 dry shampoo. 1. Gold Bond's firming neck and chest cream your skin will be SO happy to soak up — this is formulated with aloe, salicylic acid, and jojoba oil to help hydrate, tighten, and gently exfoliate your skin so effectively that you should be able to see early results in two weeks. (For some reviewers, it only took a few days!) Promising review: " This is the absolute best product I've tried for firming my neck. I could see results after the first use. Tightened the skin on my neck as well as made it have an even tone. I won't buy anything else." — Oma KK Get it from Amazon for $11.97. 2. Mise En Scene Perfect Serum, a beloved K-beauty staple for MEGA hair hydration and heat protection up to 450 degrees, so you can style your hair without sacrificing on ✨shine.✨ This unique blend of seven-oil blend Moroccan argan, olive, coconut, apricot, Marula, jojoba, and camellia oil not only protects hair, but helps correct damage from dryness, *and* reduces drying time. Promising review: " I have really thick dark straight-ish hair and this is the best hair oil I have ever used. I used to use an $80 hair oil Gisou, and I can gladly say that this product does work waaaaaay better than those expensive oils. This makes my hair soooo soft, and it takes away all of the frizz. It smells really good, and it smells fresh and clean. This bottle has lasted me soooo much longer than I expected. A little goes a long way. I love using it after the shower on damp hair and dry hair. It is just an amazing hair oil and I will never use anything else but this." — Bea Get it from Amazon for $13+ (available in two sizes, a mist style, and four other formulas). 3. Olay Super Serum Body Wash will make anyone with dry or dull skin REJOICE — this is packed with niacinamide, shea butter, and collagen peptides for 24-hour hydration that will make you feel as ~luminous~ as the spring sunshine. (Psst — this is the body wash version of their TikTok-famous, super effective facial Super Serum, so you KNOW they mean business.) Amazon Check out a TikTok of the Olay Super Serum Body Wash in action. Promising review:"I recently tried the Olay Super Serum Body Wash, and I am absolutely in love with it! The formula is incredibly hydrating, leaving my skin feeling soft and smooth after every use. It lathers beautifully and has a lovely, light fragrance that isn't overpowering. After just a few uses, I noticed my skin looked more radiant and felt deeply moisturized. The addition of serums in the body wash is a game changer. My skin feels nourished, and I no longer need to apply lotion right after showering. Highly recommend this to anyone looking for a luxurious, skin-loving body wash!" — Darina "I have been using Dove moisture body wash for a long time, but it just wasn't getting the job done. After trying this, I will never go back to anything else. Worth the price, and I can clearly see and feel a difference." — JW Get it from Amazon for $12.97 (available in three styles for Normal, Extra Dry, and Rough & Bumpy skin). 4. A "flossing toothbrush" with two layers of bristles — regular firm bristles, and longer ones that are 10 times thinner to clean deep in between your teeth and gums to mimic flossing. Reviewers love how deep the clean feels, and also how soft it is on sensitive teeth! Mouthwatchers is a small business established by Ronald Plotka, DDS, that specializes in antimicrobial toothbrushes designed to get deeper cleans even patients with "great" dental hygiene might miss with traditional brush and floss routines. I use these and I love them! I used to use an electric one, but I feel like I'm getting a much more satisfying clean from these. Especially because I tend to get yellow stains between my teeth no matter *how* much I floss, and these bristles seem to actually target that a lot more effectively. I've switched to using this in the morning and the electric one at night and definitely see a difference in that area in particular. Promising review: "Your teeth will never feel so clean! I've been using this brand for almost a year, and without question, it is most excellent in every way. I won't use anything else and was happy to see there is a travel version!" — Karen Get a two-pack from Amazon for $9.90. 5. A shockingly affordable "Glow Up!" Vitamin C Face Serum that packs a powerful punch — reviewers swear by this for reducing dark spots, brightening skin, restoring tone, and giving skin a more radiant, firm look. This particular serum's secret is the 3-O Ethyl Ascorbic Acid, which helps boost ~radiance~, in addition to the hyaluronic acid, aloe vera, and vitamin E to help with hydration. Promising review:"I've been using the Vitamin C Face Serum for a few weeks now, and I'm absolutely in love with it! My skin feels so much smoother and brighter, and I've noticed a significant reduction in the dark spots I've been struggling with. The serum absorbs quickly, leaving no greasy residue, and it has a lovely, light scent. My complexion is looking more even, and I can see a visible improvement in my skin tone. I also appreciate how gentle it is on my skin, with no irritation at all. This serum has quickly become a must-have in my skincare routine! Highly recommend for anyone looking to tackle dark spots and brighten their skin." — Patricia D. "Absolutely wonderful for the skin. Will never use another vitamin C serum. Super affordable." — Autumn Bohn Get it from Amazon for $7.98. 6. Monday Haircare Dry Shampoo with all the oil-absorbing, refreshing power of its competitors, *plus* added keratin for protection against frizz and breakage. The subtle gardenia scent is just extra extra credit after all that. Check out a TikTok of the Monday Dry Shampoo in action. Promising review: "I hate dry shampoo. I have searched for years to find one that wasn't true of. They all left my hair looking and feeling gross, and worse yet (in my opinion), made my scalp itch in a way that made me want to commit violence. But this stuff does absolutely none of that and did everything I was told dry shampoo was supposed to do. It doesn't make my hair feel disgusting or look powdery. It also doesn't make my scalp itch! I have no intention of buying anything else ever again." — Bend2MyWill Get it from Amazon for $6.97. 7. Catrice "Instant Awake" Under Eye Brightener, which became the internet's holy grail — now in four shades! — for concealing and brightening dark circles under your eyes so fast that everyone's old concealers are doing double takes. This lightweight color-adapting formula is designed for truly ~invisible~ coverage that makes a drastic difference. Promising review: "Took years off my eyes! This product is so reasonably priced. I came across a TikTok promoting this and decided to take a chance since the price was super reasonable. My eyes looked brighter in a good way, and the concealer worked so well that I felt I looked younger. I got compliments from friends asking what I did differently with my makeup. I recommend it." — Monica T. " I started using this a few months ago and will not go back to anything else! It covers dark under eye circles so well and is easy to spread on the skin." — Katie Get it from Amazon for $6 (available in four shades). 8. Plus Good Molecules Yerba Mate Wake Up Eye Gel, a cult-fave product for your beauty arsenal that will quickly help minimize eye puffiness and swelling thanks to its winning combo of caffeine and hyaluronic acid. It's basically an alarm clock for your eyeballs, because boy howdy are they awake now!! Good Molecules is a small business that specializes in affordable skincare products. Promising review:"This stuff is amazing!! I put it on every night and morning. I've been using a little over a month and you can already tell a difference. My dark circles are hereditary, so I truly thought nothing would work. However this stuff IS GREAT!" — Shay M. "I love this! After using this for a month, I won't be buying anything else." — Michelle Parsley Get it from Amazon for $5.98. 9. Mixsoon Bean SPF 50 Sunscreen with an ~airy~ texture, making this K-beauty staple perfect for anyone who loves a good SPF but hates the icky sticky feeling of it. This feather-light, hydrating sunscreen plays so well with makeup that it's about to become the primer of your ✨dreams✨. Amazon Psst — you might recognize the brand because it's behind the TikTok-famous "glass skin" staple, Mixsoon Bean Essence Serum! Check out a TikTok of the Mixsoon sunscreen in action. Promising review: "I've been looking for a physical sunscreen with minimal ingredients, and this one really impressed me. It's affordable and actually protects my skin. I don't think I'll ever switch!" — Lisbet Fonseca Moreira Get it from Amazon for $15. 10. E.l.f's Lash XTNDR Tubing Mascara, a GODSEND for anyone with thin or fragile lashes. This uses lightweight ~tubing~ technology to wrap around lashes and give them a natural-looking, smudge-proof extension so good it almost looks fake. The real boon, though, is how easily the "tubes" slide off in clean, easy swipes at the end of the day when you're washing your face — absolutely no smudging, over-scrubbing, or special eye makeup removal products required. 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 E.l.f. tubing mascara 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 wearing 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 already have dark under eyes, so I don't need staining from my mascara. Non-waterproof mascara runs and stains. Waterproof mascara is impossible to get off without oil cleansing, cleansing, then micellar water, too. This tubing mascara has stayed put through light tears (I'm a crier during movies) and allergies, even rubbing my eye by accident. To remove, I just gently rub some warm water on my lashes in the shower a couple of times and it's gone! No staining, no scrubbing, no special products. I will never use anything else." — Cari Get it from Amazon for $7 (available in three shades). 11. Jergens Natural Glow Firming Self-Tanner Body Lotion gives you a gradually-building, vacation-worthy ~sunkissed glow~ over the course of just a few days. Not only is this easy peasy to apply compared to other finickier, streaking lotions, but it's formulated with collagen and elastin to help your skin appear firmer *and* glowier. Promising review:"You cannot go wrong with Jergens Natural Glow self-tanner. It delivers a beautiful tan and glow to your face for several days, plus it is moisturizing as well. Make sure to scrub your face well and dry before applying. Wash your hands after application. Allow to thoroughly dry before bedtime or applying makeup. I have been using Jergens self-tanner for many years and will never switch to anything else." — Faloli Get it from Amazon for $9.49 (available in Fair to Medium, Medium to Deep, and several sizes). 12. A painless, mint-flavored teeth-whitening pen reviewers swear by as an alternative to pricey professional treatments and strips. This gets results from the very first use, lightening up years' worth of stains from coffee, tea, wine, or just, you know, existing as a human with teeth. Promising review:"This is a very easy tooth whitening product to use, I have tried several different brands and this by far works the best and is the easiest. I was a little skeptical trying another pen-like product, but was beyond impressed. I will never switch brands." — Lee Corsones Get a two-pack from Amazon for $13.26 (clip the 30% off coupon on the product page for this price). 13. Eos' Shea Butter Vanilla Cashmere body lotion, which TikTok has spent years going *feral* over both because of the lightweight, long-lasting moisture, and the soothing, delicious smell that reviewers compare to more expensive brands like Philosophy and Bath & Body Works. It's so beloved that Eos recently released a matching Vanilla Cashmere Shave Oil! Promising review: "I've tried so many products to help my dry skin during the winter, but nothing really worked — until I found the Eos 24-Hour Moisture Body Lotion in Vanilla Cashmere. The texture is rich and thick, yet it absorbs beautifully, leaving my skin feeling like silk. I stay moisturized all day long, and my skin has been cracking way less since I started using it. The scent is absolutely amazing — warm, cozy, and comforting. I can't imagine using anything else now!" — Anya Zabolotna Get it from Amazon for $8.98. 14. A bottle of Elizavecca hair treatment, an Olaplex-like repairing mask infused with collagen ingredients and protein extracts that will help restore hair health and reduce shedding when that winter dryness is coming for your 'do. All you gotta do is apply it on wet hair after a shampoo, wait five minutes, and rinse it out. This is designed to work on all hair types, with reviewers with 2b–4c curls mentioning it worked for them! Promising review: This stuff is AMAZING. I have been bleaching my hair for 12 years. My hair has never looked or felt better before using this. It is so soft, shiny and healthy only using this once a week. It has worked better on my hair than Olaplex or other expensive treatments. I'll never use anything else!" — Craig Check out BuzzFeed's full review of the Elizavecca hair treatment for more deets! Get a bottle from Amazon for $7.60. 15. A bottle of nail and cuticle repair oil that you simply brush on your nail beds once a day to condition and strengthen all those brittle spots and painful hangnails, leaving you with thick, strong nails and nail beds you're not tempted to pick at all the livelong day. Promising review:"I will never buy anything else for my nails. This is by far the best I have ever used!" — Stacey Get it from Amazon for $9.90. 16. Mario Badescu Drying Lotion for anyone who has had their fill of acne stickers and wants a more effective solution for overnight zit care. Just dab a constellation of this over your blemishes to help dry them out and reduce redness while you snooze. This gets extra points for being sensitive skin-friendly and easy to use! PSA: Do not shake the bottle before use! Promising review:"If you have tried everything to dry out your acne and pimples, but have not tried this yet — DO IT. This stuff is SO strange and a very weird application, and also smells a LOT like Calamine Lotion ( that pink stuff you put on poison ivy? I think it might be REALLY similar actually!) but holy heck does it WORK. Just pull the cotton swab out, it will have the pink stuff on it, and dab it on any questionable spot of your face at night (don't rub!). It dries in seconds and you will look like you've got the chicken pox or some sort of pox, but just go to sleep and dream of your amazing skin! I will NEVER buy anything else. I'll be buying this stuff in BULK! Thank you Mario Badescu!!!" — Bookapotamus Get it from Amazon for $20+ (available in glass or plastic bottle, and in packs with drying patches). 17. A set of super affordable hydrocolloid nose pore patches (compare to the $16 Mighty Patch equivalent) that will make you go "boy HOWDY" when you see how much gunk collects on them overnight. Reviewers swear by these for gently lifting out sebum from pores and pimples and minimizing their appearance! Amazon Peach Slices is a small business that specializes in affordable skincare products. Promising review:"I bought these after reading a beauty 'must-have' list. I used them on myself and my pre-teen son who has super oily skin and blackheads. I was shook. These little strips delivered. They blew any drug store strips out of the water. I'm sending links to all the people I know. I'm never going back to any of the competition!!" — Rachel Smith Get a pack of seven from Amazon for $9.98. 18. Makup's Brow Me, a hybrid eyebrow wax and sculpt gel system to give yourself a professional-quality eyebrow job from the comfort of your own bathroom vanity. This water- and sweat-resistant formula has a hold so strong that a lot of reviewers compare it to lamination, and say it holds up better than expensive competitors. Amazon Makup Beauty is a small business that specializes in makeup products. Promising review:"I'm obsessed with this product. I have my brows micro bladed but I love the look of the bushy laminated brows and this product is my holy grail now. It lasts all day, and I don't need to have my brows laminated by a professional. I recently went on vacay in Cancun which is humid and these brows didn't move. Highly recommend!!" — Tammy J "This product is an exact comparable to Refy's brow gel for a fraction of the price. I love it and won't use anything else." — Candice Head Get it from Amazon for $7.98. 19. A reviewer-beloved (and makeup artist-beloved!) beauty sponge blender that rolled up and ate up all the expensive name-brand versions for breakfast. This is firm and smooth when you use it dry for powder applications, and soft and flexible when you wet it for creams and liquids, making it the ultimate versatile sponge in your beauty trove ... for a mere $4 (!!) compared to the $20 BeautyBlender version. Promising review:"I have tried SO many makeup sponges that claim to be similar to the BeautyBlender. No other sponge has lived up to the hype until this one! It is so soft and bouncy, and applies makeup beautifully. I've been using another more expensive makeup sponge and didn't even realize how much foundation was being sucked into the sponge and wasted. I was blown away by how far my foundation goes now that I've switched to this sponge. I seriously will never use a different brand again!" — Bree Get two from Amazon for $6.97. 20. Etude's delightfully multipurpose Dear Darling Water Tint, which a lot of reviewers compare to Benefit's Lip Tint. This smudgeproof formula is designed primarily to be a natural-looking, weightless lip stain, but reviewers use it as a blush as well! Promising review: "I bought the Benefit version a couple of months ago and was very underwhelmed by it, but this product is sooo soo much better than Benetint. The pigment is so good and natural at the same time. A 10/10 for sure. And at this price point, what's there not to like?" — Rachael " [Now that I've] I discovered this line of lip tint, I'll never go back to any other type of lipstick, and the colors are phenomenal! The water tints are quite long-lasting, the colors are beautiful, they never dry out or flake off, and lip lines almost disappear on my 65-year-old lips — it's very hydrating. I probably reapply two to three times in 15 hours or so. I don't think that's excessive for a lip stain. Plus, it's just the most comfortable lip color I've ever used, I just love it!" — A king Get it from Amazon for $7.40+ (available in five shades and combo packs). 21. L'Oréal Paris Makeup True Match Lumi Glotion designed to enhance your skin's natural ✨ glow✨ just like the pricy Drunk Elephant drops — perfect for anyone who wants a lightweight alternative to foundation or just a lil' extra low-effort, ethereal shimmer in their lives. Promising review:"Love love love this stuff. This is such a stellar product that is so versatile. Can be worn alone to put some glowy life to skin. Add to foundation or layer it. Beautiful. Use it as a base where you put highlighter on top. Mix some with moisturizer. This, in my opinion, is better than so many high-luxury brands that make similar products. And I am pretty sure it can be used by all skin types. It's not an oily feeling at all, and it doesn't dry out the skin either. Just a total package. Can't beat the price either." — Figgy08 "It's perfect and I'll never use anything else ever again but this for my foundation." — HisQueen Get it from Amazon for $13.98+ (available in four shades). 22. Differin Acne Treatment Gel for prescription-strength acne care *without* the hassle of paying to see a dermatologist. This not only helps clear breakouts by helping with skin cell turnover to clear out pores and calm inflammation, but also helps prevent them over time. The key to this is patience, patience, patience — a lot of reviewers mention seeing excellent results after the first month of use! Head's up that you should definitely use sunscreen while applying this product and build up your use gradually, because retinoids are very strong! A lot of users also see a "purge," when their acne is temporarily worse as the product starts to take effect, so be on the lookout for that, too. Promising reviews:"[This] has completely transformed my skin. I used to get hormonal acne every single month. I still get it now, but far less often and severely. Differin has really made a big difference in my quality of life. I have sensitive skin, so I only use it a couple of times a week and always over a light layer of lotion. When I first started using it, my acne did get worse for about a month, and then magically, one day, my skin looked amazing. It's worth a try for sure!" — Britt "THIS PRODUCT SAVED MY LIFE!! Not to be dramatic, but we all know how much acne can get to us. I put this product on at night, and the next day the acne is SIGNIFICANTLY cleared up. If you struggle with acne I HIGHLY recommend this. It is top-grade treatment without a doctor's prescription. I don't even wear makeup anymore because my skin is so clear. I will never use anything else." — Lauren Martin Get it from Amazon for $14.61+ (available in two packaging styles). 23. MagicMinerals AirBrush Foundation, which lives up to its name and THEN some — one quick spray of the foundation on the included brush, and it glides so smoothly and subtly over your skin texture that you'll feel like a makeup artist did it for you. Reviewers in their 30s, 40s, and up especially swear by this lightweight but effective formula, and love that it's ridiculously easy to use. 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 was hesitant to buy this product, and I'm so glad I did! I've had trouble matching different products with my skin, and now that this product arrived, I'll never use anything else. The coverage is top notch, it genuinely looks like I had professional airbrush. 11 out of 10 recommend!" — Ashley N. Get it from Amazon for $13.15 (available in 12 shades). 24. Joesoef's pharmaceutical-grade anti-acne sulfur soap that people with acne, rosacea, dermatitis, and clogged pores swear by for helping clear their skin. A lot of reviewers noted that they found this specific product after their dermatologists recommended it to them! Amazon Joesoef Skin Care is a small business 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. T his 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 "The ONLY soap I use to keep my face flawlessly clear! I've been using this exact brand and formula for over 10 years now. I don't use anything else except this soap, and my face stays 100% clear. I swear by it." — Lonna Brown Get it from Amazon for $12.99 (also available in multipacks). 25. The Face Shop's Rice Water Bright Foaming Facial Cleanser, a gentle, cult-fave Korean beauty product reviewers swear by as an alternative to the pricey Tatcha Rice Wash. This hydrating cleanser removes waterproof makeup and sunscreen with ease, has an ohhhh-so-satisfying lather, and leaves skin moisturized after use. Promising review: "I have combination skin and the Tatcha Rice Wash is the only thing I can use. I was gonna spend my last few dollars on the Tatcha, but then I saw this. With the price, I thought if it doesn't work, it isn't a huge deal. I'm never going back, this is like the exact same thing, and you barely need any, the scent is the only difference besides it being a bit thicker, BUT THAT'S GOOD because it's BARELY thicker, AND that means even less goes a much longer way. This is a holy grail item. If you haven't tried it, I soooo highly recommend." — Lingaling "Love this!! I've tried so many other face washes, and I either got an allergic reaction or stripped my face too much. This face wash cleans gently and leaves my face feeling soft and clean. I will never use anything else." — Catwoman09 Get it from Amazon for $11.99+ (available in two sizes). 26. An "Exfoliate & Glow" premium scrub mitt for that oh-so-squeaky clean sensation that comes with sloughing off dead skin. No, for real — one reviewer saw all the dead skin left in their shower floor and dubbed themselves a " Lizard Person" after shedding it. This is great for helping even out skin texture and tone, preventing ingrown hairs, calming keratosis pilaris, and removing self-tanner, too! 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'll never use anything else! This exfoliating mitt is amazing. I didn't have high expectations, but holy cow, am I pleasantly surprised. I am thirty years old and haven't had this soft of skin even after an 'everything' shower in … I don't know how long! 10/10 recommend. My 11-month-old baby's got nothin' on mama's skin now. 😮‍💨" — Lisa D. Get it from Amazon for $10.99 (also available in a set of two). 27. L'Oréal Paris BB Cream, a FAST-acting, anti-redness moisturizer with results that feel like legitimate magic — especially considering its competitor, the Dr Jart+ Cicapair Color Correcting Cream, is over twice as expensive. Reviewers especially love this as a base for their makeup, because it leaves skin super soft and primed. Promising review: "I'd yet to find anything (even foundation) that could cover up my red areas. Cheeks, chin, nose, and forehead. It comes out green, but has a gorgeous lightweight finish of a tint that indeed covers my redness beautifully. There's no greasiness to it at all. It dries down to a beautiful matte finish. It's super easy to use. I use my fingers. The texture is like silk. It leaves my face baby-soft, not sticky at all. It doesn't settle into my fine lines or wrinkles, and I don't need powder to 'bake' it under my eyes. It also covers the black circles under my eyes." — Julie F. "I will not use anything else. I was hesitant to try this as I have sensitive skin and have always stuck to basic products. It's light and refreshing — coverage is incredible! Definitely magic." — Sarah G. Get it from Amazon for $9.98 (available in six styles). 28. "Gloves In A Bottle," aka the hero of anyone with dry, cracked hands — this game-changing lotion not only helps heal your skin, but actively protects it for four to twelve hours, even through repeated hand washes. Reviewers with eczema or those who have to sanitize frequently for work swear by this! Gloves in a Bottle is a small business that specializes in skincare products for working professionals. Promising review:"I am a teacher and literally wash or sanitize my hands several times per hour! If I'm not washing my hands, I'm cleaning all the surfaces in my classroom with harsh cleaners. I thought I would try this lotion and I am thankful I took a chance! It is not only moisturizing, but it's not too scented or greasy. We are not allowed to wear perfume at school due to allergies, and this works perfectly. The best part is that after you do wash your hands, you can still feel the lotion! My cuticles are staying moisturized, too. I am going to get more for home and the car." — Chianti "This stuff is amazing! My hands get so dry they will crack and bleed and this is the only lotion that works. I'll never use anything else!" — Amazon Customer 30. Nyx's Pore Filler Targeted Stick, a holy grail option for anyone with sensitive skin who may have had it up to HERE with other pore fillers and their promises. This has a "blurring" effect to reduce the appearance of pores and smooth your skin without causing any extra shine you have to blot out. Check out a TikTok of the Nyx Pore Filler in action. Promising review: "This product is amazing!!! I've tried every primer out there and this makes your skin so smooth and the coverage is great. It's not oily at all. I will never use anything else." — Cesa Get it from Amazon for $7.99. 31. Boldify Hairline Powder for anyone who's like, "Hmmm. Wasn't there ... a lot more hair there before??" when they're styling their roots. This "makeup for hair" helps effortlessly fill in the gaps in your hairline so you don't have style around it. Reviewers also swear by this for touching up their roots between appointments! Promising review: "I was skeptical at first, but I'm so glad that I purchased this. I finally cut my hair short after losing so much hair and thinning. I have a lot of spots where you can see the hair thinning, but this has covered it all. I bought the dark brown, and I put it at the roots. I've been so self-conscious for years using this product is helping me so much." — Wendy "This is the best root cover-up available! I've tried plenty of others, but this one is tops. It's long-lasting, covers completely, and looks natural. I'll never buy anything else!" — CM Grippin Get it from Amazon for $17.95 (available in 14 shades and two sizes). 32. Pure Instinct Roll-On, a TikTok-viral "pheromone-infused" scent a lot of reviewers love because it's designed to smell different on each user by blending with the unique pH of your skin. It's marketed as a way to make yourself smell more ~alluring~, but a lot of reviewers just genuinely love the sweetness of the unique but subtle scent. Pure Instinct is a small business established in 1985 that specializes in personal fragrances and essential oils. Promising review:"I'm extremely picky with perfumes. I hate anything overpowering, too floral, too sweet, too musky. This smells so faint like soap. It just smells clean. Like you just got out of the shower. Reminds me of Skin by Clean which is my favorite perfume ever. To me it has very subtle notes of vanilla and flowers. I mean like real flowers not like the artificial floral scent that is nauseating. This smells beautiful. The smell does change over time as it reacts with your body. I'll definitely be buying again when I run out. I love that it's a roll on oil too. Very convenient and easy to apply. It smells natural. Doesn't smell like you're wearing perfume. Just smells like you naturally smell good if that makes sense, lol." — Emily "I have bought a similar product from Pure Romance for over double the price. I was a little nervous buying this because it was so much of a cheaper price, but it smells AMAZING! I will never buy another product after this one." — Kim Get it from Amazon for $16.95.

Olay Super Serum Body Wash is made with niacinamide, shea butter, and collagen peptides, and delivers 24 hours (!!!) of hydration— aka everything you'd want in a revitalizing skin smoothie. Aaaaand, every shower you take will feel like a luxurious spa moment! Amazon Check out a TikTok of the Olay Super Serum Body Wash in action. Promising review:"I recently tried the Olay Super Serum Body Wash, and I am absolutely in love with it! The formula is incredibly hydrating, leaving my skin feeling soft and smooth after every use. It lathers beautifully and has a lovely, light fragrance that isn't overpowering. After just a few uses, I noticed my skin looked more radiant and felt deeply moisturized. The addition of serums in the body wash is a game changer. My skin feels nourished, and I no longer need to apply lotion right after showering. Highly recommend this to anyone looking for a luxurious, skin-loving body wash!" — Darina Get it from Amazon for $12.97. 2. A "Soft" perfume rollerball you've likely seen come up 9,000 times on your TikTok FYP. (Or is that just me?) Reviewers are in love with how incredible it smells and how magically it seems to layer with other scents — oh, and the fact it's only FIVE DOLLARS. Reviewers have compared this perfume to the delectable scents of waffle cones, lemon pound cake, and warm vanilla scones ... and this $65 bottle of Pink Sugar (gasp!). 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 Get it from Amazon for $6.50 (available in two styles). 3. A Lee Beauty Professional Callus Remover to conquer the rough skin on your tootsies and heels when you simply don't have the time to head out for a legit pedicure. Promising review: "Amazing. Now I know the first pic is gross but that just shows how bad my feet were, scrubbing, pedicures, soaking all just made it worse until I found this! I mean it seriously shows In the pics. The other big thing I noticed was how soft my feet were after using it! Too bad you can't tell that from the picture. Idk what makes this work so well but it's a miracle! And yes definitely wear gloves and you're good to go." — Amazon Customer Get it from Amazon for $14.99 (available in a two-pack). 4. A fungal-nail renewal treatment with reviewer photos that, honestly, make me gag a little bit — if your toe looks like this, the good news is IT DOESN'T HAVE TO! This product helps with fungal nail damage and might possibly help with the discoloration, thickness, and brittleness you've also been experiencing. Sandal season is coming — let's conquer this once and for all. Promising review:"I've been dealing with a bad fungus nail for about three years. I've been trying to use products off the shelf and bought one here, you know, the ones with the brush. It never worked 'til I bought this one. Let me tell you, it only took just under a week to see GREAT results. It's pretty much gone, and it's been less than two months. Buy it and don't think about it! You won't regret it!" — itslilac Get it from Amazon for $16.97. 5. A lightweight tinted lip balm with a touch of gloss is perfect for anyone who wants to add some color to their pout but keep it looking au natural. It's super similar to the viral Clinique Almost Lipstick Tinted Lip Balm. Promising review:"Love this! Adds just a touch of color, which is what I wanted, and is nicely moisturizing, too." — Joan Modisette Get a set of two from Amazon for $9.99+ (available in five shades). 6. A skin-firming neck and chest Gold Bond cream because chances are you've been neglecting these specific skin areas for years — well, now it's their time to shine! This cream is packed with hydrating hyaluronic acid and has been crafted to improve skin's elasticity and texture. TL;DR: you're welcome for introducing you to this magical stuff. Promising review:"This product is the real deal. The first time I used it, I noticed a definite softening of the lines on my neck. I have been using it for about a week and it has made a noticeable difference. No, the wrinkles are not completely gone but there is a real difference. I will also point out that I am almost 70, so I wasn't expecting a miracle, but this product has come pretty darn close. I recommend it." — rose b. Get it from Amazon for $11.97. 7. Good Molecules Yerba Mate Wake Up Eye Gel to add to your skincare routine after taking a quick read of what incredible ingredients lie within — we're talkin' a beautiful marriage of caffeine and hyaluronic acid that'll wake your eyes up faster than chugging a cold brew. Good Molecules is a small business that specializes in affordable skincare products. Promising reviews:"I love this product and have noticed a huge difference when using it consistently. I am on the younger side and don't have the worst under-eye bags, but on those occasional mornings when my eyes are puffy with somewhat visible dark circles, this product definitely does the trick! Honestly, I love all the Good Molecules products." — Hayden Smith "This right here is the real deal! You can see immediate results! It firms and moisturizes my eye lids! A must-have!" — Nancy A. Borkowski Get it from Amazon for $5.99. 8. Venus Visage Teeth Whitening Pens — apply it directly to your teeth, let it sit a minute or two, hum "My Shiny Teeth and Me" from The Fairly OddParents, and enjoy your fresh-looking pearly whites. You can use each pen about 20 times and should expect your teeth to lighten 4–8 shades. Promising review:"I have only used the two original pens that I purchased and can already see an improvement. I am older than 60 and drink coffee daily and red wine weekly." — vicki houska Get a two-pack from Amazon for $9.33. 9. Catrice's "Instant Awake" Under Eye Brightener conceals and brightens the dark circles under your eyes SO FAST you might even forget you stayed up super late watching Summer House and are now sleepier than ever. This lightweight color-adapting formula now comes in four fabulous shades! The color-adaptive formula is designed so one of four shades will work on any skin tone. I've personally tested this out, and it has become an essential part of my daily routine. As a mom of two, I gotta just say I am TIRED. So tired that I'm not sure what my face even looks like without bags under my eyes — that is, unless I've got the Catrice "Instant Awake" on. A little really goes a long way and has great coverage. I wore it throughout my sister's wedding weekend in Aruba, and despite the heat, it stayed perfectly in place. An incredible product for an even more incredible price...10/10 from me. Promising review: "Took years off my eyes! This product is so reasonably priced. I came across a TikTok promoting this and decided to take a chance since the price was super reasonable. My eyes looked brighter in a good way, and the concealer worked so well that I felt I looked younger. I got compliments from friends asking what I did differently with my makeup. I recommend it." — Placeholder Get it from Amazon for $6 (available in four shades). 10. Elizavecca Collagen Protein Treatment only asks for a mere five minutes of your time and transforms hair from drab to fab — yes, seriously, only 300 seconds will do the trick! 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 wreaked havoc on my hair, leaving it pretty damaged. I was very skeptical about this product because I have 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 with natural or curly hair." — Therese-Claire Get it from Amazon for $7.60. And check out our full Elizavecca CER-100 collagen protein treatment review. 11. E.l.f's Lash Xtndr Tubing Mascara — race to add it to your cart after seeing reviewer photos. It features a lightweight tubing technology that magically wraps around lashes, transforming them from *drab to fab* without taking away from your natural look. Check out a TikTok of the E.l.f. tubing mascara in action. BuzzFeed writer Emma Lord is a fan with a capital F: " 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 E.l.f. tubing mascara 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 wearing 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." Get it from Amazon for $6.95 (available in three shades). 12. Or Lilac St. Original Lashes that are said to stay put for up to 10 days (!!!), which means you won't have to apply mascara for over a week! They're vegan, cruelty-free, and feature silk lash fibers you're bound to get compliments on. Lilac St is a small business! Promising review: "Y'all, I have been a loyal Lilac St. customer since they started, and I will never leave them. These are the absolute best quality. I get so many compliments. They are the most natural and most comfortable to wear. I use several times by using makeup remover and water to remove any glue. Seriously, will never stray." — Katiew Get them from Amazon for $12.95 (available in 11 styles and five sizes). 13. Sol de Janeiro Brazilian Bum Bum Cream featuring scent notes of vanilla, pistachio, and salted caramel you'll enjoy applying to your skin just as much as you'd like it as an ice cream sundae. It's also filled with vitamin E, caffeine, coconut oil, and guarana extract to help smooth, firm, and hydrate your skin. BuzzFeed editor Elizabeth Lilly says, "I've used this stuff before and can confirm that 1) the scent is indeed intoxicating and 2) everything from this brand has scents that really STICK to you. I'm currently using the Beija Flor body wash and I can smell it on my skin hours later — which is pretty rare for a body wash." 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. 14. A Briotech spray helps calm down any pesky skin irritations (looking at you, rashes, sunburns, rosacea, eczema, etc). Its magical ingredient is hypochlorous, which helps diminish inflammation while simultaneously strengthening your skin barrier. It might just remind ya of the fan favorite (but pricier) Tower 28 SOS Daily Rescue Spray. Note: This product has newer packaging that you might receive instead of the older bottle shown above! 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 the irritation and the stye, which went away. This simple, inexpensive spray takes care of any blemish or acne. Great for after-sun care or workout redness. Everyone loves Tower 28's expensive SOS spray. The SOS spray contains hypochlorous acid, the same ingredient in the Biotech spray, for much less money. It's a miracle worker." — Squid466 Get it from Amazon for $9.99. 15. LilyAna Naturals Eye Cream — designed to decrease puffiness and dark circles, so if you've been up far too late crying watching Steel Magnolias for the umpteenth time this cream will be there for you come morning. LilyAna Naturals is a small business! Promising review:"I have been using this daily for about eight months now. I am 60-years-old. It reduced the puffiness and bags under my eyes. I am Sicilian and had dark circles. It has brightened up my eye area. I am very surprised as I have paid much more for eye creams that have done so much less. I recently had precancerous cells removed at the bridge of my nose. After healing, I was left with a dark scar. The dermatologist told me that it would heal over time. Since I began to apply this eye cream, the mark has almost disappeared entirely. I shop constantly from Amazon. This is the first time that I have taken the time to write a review. That's how impressed I am with this product. If you decide to purchase this, you won't be sorry." — Lynda M. Get it from Amazon for $14.99+ (available in three sizes). 16. Eos' Shea Butter Vanilla Cashmere body lotion shockingly costs less than a Grande iced latte at Starbucks (wowza!). Reviewers rave about how it's not greasy at all, sinks right in, leaves skin feeling (and smelling) amazing *and* will likely remind you of the ever-popular Bath & Body Works Vanilla Bean Noel la la! Promising review: "I was worried after some people said the scent was a bit strong, but as someone who is usually sensitive to smells I'm extremely happy with this. N ot only does it feel amazing and super creamy, it smells SOOOO good. I love that it feels like expensive body butter and the smell literally lasts all day. 100% recommend" — Carley Get it from Amazon for $3.99+ (available in two sizes, five other scents, and multi-packs). 17. Medicube Deep Vitamin C Golden Capsule Face Moisturizer, aka a K-beauty must-have you may not have heard of just yet, but, boy, are you about to now! The jar is filled with tiny, poppable capsules you can snap and apply directly to your skin for the glowy revival you've been hoping for since Jack Frost did his worst. Promising review: "This moisturizer is one of the nicest feeling moisturizers ever. The appearance of the vitamin C capsules inside the gel goop on TikTok enticed me to purchase it for myself. This moisturizer has a gel-like consistency and comes with a scooper, making it very easy to apply. You get a decent-sized jar of moisturizer for the price, and the moisturizer is pretty thick. Although it is sticky, I would say it absorbs into your skin pretty quickly. It may leave a slight sticky residue left behind, but I think overall it is amazing for all skin types. After using this in the a.m. before sunscreen, I noticed my skin really glow and feel smooth! I had gifted a jar to my 60-year-old mother and she had told me how her skin felt like a baby's bum the next morning!" — tracey + kiwi Get it from Amazon for $19.90. 18. Maybelline Superfluff Volumizing Brow Mousse because not all of us have been naturally blessed with Brooke Shields's iconic eyebrows — this product comes in six shades and will give your brows the boost they need. Amazon Promising review:"So quick and easy to get full fluffy brows! It does it all in one. Gives them volume, holds them nice without being over-tacky and stiff, and darkens them. So easy in the morning before work. Takes a couple of swipes, and I am ready to go." — jessica alexandra Get it from Amazon for $13.99 (available in six shades). 19. E.l.f.'s Holy Hydration! Thirst Burst Drops will quickly become your most talked about skincare item after you see how incredible it'll leave your face looking and feeling. It's packed with hibiscus complex and hyaluronic acid and can be used solely as a serum or mixed in with your go-to foundation for a hydrating boost your skin is likely craving. Reviewers love using it instead of the pricier (but VERY similar) Glow Recipe Watermelon Dew Drops. Amazon Promising review: "Love these drops. So effective, a little goes a long way. Great for a boost of hydration, especially in the colder and/or drier months. Great as a primer before makeup to smooth the skin. Such a value for a product that packs a punch. My skin hasn't looked better!" — Ken Get it from Amazon for $11.97. 20. A Kitsch heatless curling set — wrap your hair into it before hitting the hay, remove it when you wake up, and then stare at yourself and your luscious locks. It's as easy as that — no heat needed! If only Sleeping Beauty knew about these before that looooong slumber... Kitsch is an LA-based, self-financed, woman-owned business established in 2010 that specializes in hair accessories. Promising review:"I was thoroughly impressed at how well this worked!!! My daughter has very long, thick hair, and I did not honestly expect this to work as well as it did!!! I am now going to purchase one for myself!!! Highly recommend!!!!" — Steven Schoorens Get it from Amazon for $12.99+ (available in 11 styles). 21. Or JVN No Heat Air Dry Cream if you don't have the time to sit with a hair dryer but know you can't go out into the world without freshening up your strands — this can be used on damp or dry hair to help transform your look from frizzy to fabulous. Promising review:"After 20+ years of trying to find a product to help me manage my curly hair, Jonathan Van Ness has done it. I LOVE LOVE LOVE this product. First, it smells absolutely amazing and makes me feel like I am using a high-quality, salon-quality product. I love how well it manages frizz and how soft it makes my hair feel." — Samantha Laquinta Get it from Amazon for $15+ (available in two sizes). 22. Saem Iceland Hydrating Eye Stick reduces the under-eye circles and puffiness you're prone to having if "Sleepy" is your middle name, but you're simply not catching enough Zzzs these days. A big shout out to the glacial waters it's formulated with, amiright? Promising reviews:"I have always had serious dark circles and bags under my eyes and this has really changed this for me. The results are incredible. The puffiness is gone. The dark circles are hardly noticeable. My sensitive skin has not broken out. I never write reviews, but this was so good that I had to write a review. This actually works." — Ben Get it from Amazon for $9.99. 23. Elizabeth Mott Thank Me Later eye shadow primer keeps carefully blended eyeshadow in place — you can *thank me later* when you get back from a night out with the girls (complete with the inevitable sweating and wear 'n' tear that goes with parading through a bunch of bars) when your makeup is still flawlessly in place. Promising review:"This eye primer is the real deal! Easy to apply — a tiny bit goes a long way! No creasing or oiliness all day long. My eyeshadow and liner lasts from 6 a.m.–10 p.m., even in heat and humidity. I have sensitive skin, which does not bother my eyelids. I have looked at other brands of eye primer but will stick with this one because it works so well!" — Delila Angulo Get it from Amazon for $14.99. 24. A Biodance Bio-Collagen Real Deep Mask works harder than Doc, Grumpy, Happy, Sleepy, Bashful, Sneezy, and Dopey mining diamonds. Apply it before you hit the hay to reap the benefits (firmer skin, more elasticity, minimized pores) while you dream. 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 Get a set of four from Amazon for $19. 25. A blackhead scrub stick exfoliates clogged pores and removes excess sebum while also being a bit reminiscent of the adorable lil' character from Finding Nemo that said "you made me iiiink!" See it in action on BuzzFeed Shopping's TikTok! Promising review: "Here's the thing. A scrub is never going to solve your blackhead issues long term. But there is truly no other product like this. It's an amazing quick fix to get your pores unclogged and less noticeable, and once you've done that, slap on some retinol/salicylic acid with a moisturizer. Adorable packaging, unique product, and effective!" — Molly Get it from Amazon for $12.50. 26. Lottabody's Coconut Oil Foaming Curl Mousse a must-buy whether you have curly curls, wonderful waves, or splendidly straight locks — it's designed for all hair types! See ya later, frizz. Hello, hydration and volume! Promising review:"I have super frizzy, curly hair and live in New England where we have super humid summers. I have been struggling to find a product that de-frizzes my hair without making it look oiled down, and this is it. I put it in my wet hair after washing, towel dried, and put my hair in a pony tail to go to work. My hair was frizz-free all night — even working outside in high humidity. People even asked if I did something to my hair! This is an amazing product for the price. Absolutely buying again and would recommend to anyone with a frizz issue." — Marissa Get it from Amazon for $3.98. 27. Self-Tanner transforms you into a bronzed beauty when you simply don't have the time to tan yourself for hours at the beach. This delightful mousse will get the job done in only an hour! Promising reviews: '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!' — Amazon Customer "Holy moly! This is the real deal! I was nervous because it was so cheap, but it's so natural looking and easy to apply." — SE Get it from Amazon for $9.09+ (available in 11 styles). 28. An incredible clog-proof nail glue with a price tag of less than $7 (WOW!) keeps freshly applied claws looking and feeling great for way longer than painted manis. One TikToker said it helped her press-ons stay on for 25 days! Promising review: "Got tired of spending $$$ at the nails salon, so I decided to try glue! My nails have lasted for 15 days and are still going strong! They are not budging yet!" — Lor Get it from Sally Beauty Supply for $6.49. 29. L'Oréal Paris BB Cream for anyone who is looking for a fabulous base for their makeup — it blends into skin beautifully removing redness while also acting as a moisturizer. If you apply this before any other skincare/makeup, you can only go up from there! Promising review: "I'd yet to find anything (even foundation) that could cover up my red areas. Cheeks, chin, nose, and forehead. It comes out green, but has a gorgeous lightweight finish of a tint that indeed covers my redness beautifully. There's no greasiness to it at all. It dries down to a beautiful matte finish. It's super easy to use. I use my fingers. The texture is like silk. It leaves my face baby-soft, not sticky at all. It doesn't settle into my fine lines or wrinkles, and I don't need powder to 'bake' it under my eyes. It also covers the black circles under my eyes." — Julie F. Get it from Amazon for $9.98 (available in six styles). 30. E.l.f "Squeeze Me" lip balm pleasantly hydrates your pout for under five bucks — you might just be tempted to lick your lips constantly if you snag the Vanilla Frosting flavor. Dunkaroos fans, beware! BuzzFeed writer Emma Lord is obsessed with this balm: "I love love love this lip balm. I compare it to the $24 version from Summer Fridays, which I've been splurging on — I love that brand because it lasts so long and is so high quality, but this $4 E.l.f. version feels comparable and, more excitingly, comes in smaller versions so I can stock my totes and bathroom with them whether I'm at home or on the go. It's hydrating, lightweight, doesn't get sticky, and adds a perfect ~subtle~ gloss whether I'm using it alone or on top of a lip color." Promising review:"I have one in my car, one in my purse, and one at home. These just feel so good on your lips! The flavors are very true to their name. They are pretty small though, so if you use it often it won't last long (which is another reason I have three of them), but for $4 each it is worth it. I sometimes like using this before putting on the E.l.f. Lip Reviver Oil. Such a great base to an awesome lip oil!" — Jax Get it from Amazon for $4 (available in five flavors). 31. Nyx Pore Filler Targeted Stick, because enough is enough when it comes to your pores ruining the smooth look you've been trying to achieve. It's sensitive skin–approved and helps to reduce unwanted shininess. It also features a precise applicator you'll wish *all* of your skincare products boasted. Check out a TikTok of the Nyx Pore Filler in action. Promising review: "Love this. It truly covers my pores, and I noticed it covers some of my wrinkles. I apply it right before I apply my foundation. There is no drying time needed. And it makes my skin silky smooth. I'm buying it again as I write this review. Thanks for this product." — Greeneyez Get it from Amazon for $9.39. 32. Laneige Neo Blurring Powder makes you feel like an oil-absorbing, pore-blurring wizard. All you have to do is dab-dab-dab with the lovely puff the powder comes with, and then admire your perfectly matte complexion for the rest of the day. Amazon, 33. Glossmetics Lychee Overnight Lip Mask — try it out if you're tired of the same old Tatcha and Laneige versions everyone's been preaching about. This one is already a new fan favorite, isn't sticky (phew, great news for your loose strands of hair on a windy day), will provide ultimate shine to your lips, *and* leave you with a delicious taste on your tongue. 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 three flavors). 34. Lawless's "Forget The Filler" in various delectable flavors — it hydrates your lips overnight (similar to Laneige's repairing sleep mask) and makes your pout fuller. It's made of shea butter, hyaluronic acid, and a stimulating peptide complex that work so magically together you won't ever want to run out. Promising review: "Really makes a difference. First overnight treatment I've used where my lips genuinely feel hydrated and plumper in the morning. I'm pleasantly surprised — I bought this on a whim after a rec from The Strategist and almost canceled the order. Now I use it every night!" — Hilary Get it from Amazon $22 (available in three flavors). 35. A selfie-worthy Elizabeth Mott's Carbonated Bubble Clay Mask exfoliates blackheads and fights other skin impurities while it bubbles up and looks downright hilarious. Promising review: "I absolutely love this stuff. I was skeptical at first, but after my first use, I fell in love. It goes on smoothly and doesn't drip off, which is nice. Once it was time to rinse off, i t was amazing seeing all the stuff it sucked out of my pores (gross, but a good gross). Not only does this stuff work, it's fun to watch and see your face turn into a Smurf lol. I have cystic acne, which in itself is hard to manage, but this stuff made it that much more manageable. Face was left feeling cleansed, refreshed, and soft. LOVE LOVE this product. Highly highly recommend." — HarleyMama Get it from Amazon for $19.99. 36. I Dew Care's "Tap Secret" mattifying powder shampoo is benzene-free, comes in five hair colors, and will be your savior when, oops, you've overslept again before work. Sleepyhead? Certainly not you!!! The powder-based dry shampoo works just like spray formulas — apply to the area you're looking to refresh and then shake out excess powder with your fingertips or a brush. Promising review: "This stuff works better than Batiste at absorbing oil. I have very wavy, fine, greasy hair and I can go an additional day without washing it now." — Amazon Customer Get it from Amazon for $18. 37. Plus a BestLand Hair Finishing Stick to help you win the war you've been waging against those stubborn baby hairs that seem to stick out every which way. Arm yourself with this helpful tool and banish them once and for all! Promising review:"I used it for both my shorter new hairs that go crazy on top of my head and for my daughter's curly flyaways around her face. We live in the humid south, and this has worked MARVELOUSLY! It's the real deal, and definitely worth the purchase!" — Real User Get it from Amazon for $5.77+ (available in four styles). 38. E.l.f. Power Grip Primer — so impressive you'll find yourself raving about it to anyone with ears (yep, that includes your cat). It's packed with hyaluronic acid to keep your skin feeling moist all day and goes on clear! Amazon, Promising review:"This stuff is comparable to God himself. It gets my face tacky enough so my foundation stays on all day, but it leaves enough moisture for my skin to stay hydrated all day. 12/10 WOULD RECOMMEND!!!" — Han Get it from Amazon for $10. 39. Marc Anthony Grow Long Leave-In Conditioner Spray immediately becomes part of your daily haircare routine — it's packed with vitamin E, caffeine, and ginseng, which should help you in your ongoing fight against frizz and breakage. Amazon, Promising review:"I use this literally every day. It works so well; my hair feels great and grows pretty well. For reference, I have curly hair, which is very fine. If I use too much, my hair looks and feels greasy, but it also does that with most products. I just use a few sprays on my scalp, and it's perfect." — Lexi Get it from Amazon for $7.67. 40. La Roche-Posay triple repair moisturizer helps revive the dry skin of everyone in your household. It's safe for babies, children, and adults, so it helps reduce the number of products on your bathroom vanity! It's nongreasy and formulated with shea butter and niacinamide to restore the skin's protective barrier. Promising review:"This cream has been a lifesaver this winter. A little goes a long way, and it has completely changed my dry skin. I use it every morning, and it keeps my skin hydrated all day. It is lightweight and super creamy without being heavy and greasy. I can't say enough about how effective this cream is at a great price point." — Diane Delbrook Get it from Amazon for $15.99+ (available in two sizes). 41. Peach Slices hydrocolloid nose patches — pop one on before bed as a first line of defense against excess oil, irritating pimples, and enlarged pores. Just wait until morning when you see how much gunk is stuck to the patch — ew, but also, yay! Peach Slices ins a small business! Promising review: "I use these nose patches on my nose, forehead, and chin because I have very oily skin, and WHEW do they draw out the gross gunk in my pores. My skin feels AMAZING after I use them!!" — Lillie Blanton Get a pack of seven from Amazon for $9.98. 42. A winged eyeliner stamp because you and I know you simply don't have the time (or patience) to try and conquer crafting the perfect cat-eye. Let this baby do the work for you so you can move on to other steadily lining your lips. 😅 Lovoir is a small business! Promising review:"Let me start by saying this isn't my first cat eye rodeo. I've tried the taping method, normal liquid liner, plastic winged stamping devices, stencils, all of it! Well, this gem arrived, and I immediately had to try it out, all while laughing at how terrible this would probably turn to my surprise, I put the left cat eye on first, and it was perfect. I thought this was a fluke and did the right it came out clean and perfect! I HAVE NEVER IN MY LIFE BEEN ABLE TO DO A CAT EYE IN UNDER 10 MINUTES, LET ALONE THE TWO MINUTES THIS TOOK TO DO! There were no sloppy streaks that I had to touch up or anything you would expect. Just a clean, crisp line. I can now do a cat eye EVERY day and look/feel like a badass. Everyone can think I spend hours doing my makeup in the morning." — LadyMeow Get it from Amazon for $14.98 (available in three sizes and a combo pack). 43. And Mario Badescu Facial Spray you'll wish you could actually bathe in once you see how refreshing it feels when spritzed on your face — it's made with cucumber and aloe to hydrate and cool you down in the most delightful way. Amazon Promising reviews:"So I'm cheap okay? This spray is my holy grail. After I've put on all my moisturizer, I spray this over for extra hydration. Does the job for my oily/dry skin!! I've used this for as long as I can remember and my skin is always hydrated. I also love it for when I'm hot, I just spray all over and ahhhhh so refreshing :))" — Vanessa Get it from Amazon for $13.30. Some reviews have been edited for length and/or clarity.

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.
