A pack of 50 cult-favorite Clean Skin Club Clean Towels that are actually reaaaaaally multitalented. You can use 'em to take your makeup off with cleansers and makeup remover, use them to dry your face, to remove face masks, and even to clean your skincare and makeup tools. Your washcloth could have some bacteria on it, especially if you're using it a few days in a row. Use these babies instead and toss the funky rag to the side. A Cosrx snail mucin serum to help get rid of dark spots, improve skin vitality, and soothe damaged skin. Yep, snail mucin is a Korean skincare product made from snail slime. Sounds ick, but your skin will totally fall in love the second you use it. Hmm, wonder if this is why SpongeBob had Gary the pet snail — skincare benefits. A mattifying, waterproof On Til' Dawn One/Size setting spray that Beyoncé used at her Renaissance concert in the pouring rain at her DC show. And Queen B's face was still beat 👏 to 👏 the 👏 GODS 👏 through the downpour. Yeah, this stuff has witchcraft in it for sure, sign me up. A K-Beauty overnight collagen wrapping mask by Medicube to help protect and boost elasticity, and give you firm, plump, hydrated skin with fewer fine lines. If you were wishing on a star for radiant glass skin, I'm happy to inform you that your wish has come true. Some "Coochy" shaving cream that'll condition and moisturize your skin, and help you get a super smooth shave. It's gentle on sensitive skin and can help prevent razor bumps and ingrown hairs, it also smells like frosted cake! Promising review: "Wow. Just wow. I got this at my local intimate shop, I will be ordering from Amazon now on, since it saves the $10 markup from the local stores, but I am in love with this. I have the world's most sensitive skin and usually get at LEAST 10 large, hurtful bumps on my bikini line and area after shaving. Now, with this plus exfoliating beforehand, I have ZERO irritation and zero bumps. Will forever buy this. It's like a conditioner, not a cream or foam or anything." —HollyGet it from Amazon for $8.99+ (available in four sizes and a "Peachy Keen" scent). A Huda Beauty setting powder in "Ube Birthday Cake" — a silky powder that'll help bake and set your makeup, absorb excess oil, blur pores and fine lines, and lock in your makeup for up to 10 hours with an airbrushed finish. Apparently, this stuff is worth every bit of hype it gets. Purple setting powder?! I know, sounds bizarre, *but* check it out on TikTok cuz it's flawlessly gorgeous!I have this and it's so, so cute. I kept hearing rave reviews about how amazing Huda Beauty's setting powder was, and the lilac tint of the Ube Birthday Cake shade really intrigued me, so I snagged it. No regrets. I've been loyal to the One/Size powder for years (and still won't be giving it up), but I'll definitely be buying this forever, too. I also wanna try more shades. As a Black woman, I was a tad bit nervous about this ube shade, but the blurring, the brightening, and the coverage are top tier, truly. And it magically still looks flawless at the end of the review: "I don't normally write reviews, but I absolutely had to this time. I have been STRUGGLING to find a setting powder that lasts all day, didn't turn my under eyes cake-y or ashy, didn't go into the crease under my eye, and actually brightened. This Huda setting powder does it ALL. I'll never not buy this product. So glad I went out on a limb and tried it out! Fan forever!" —Lindsey9876Get it from Sephora for $23+ (available in two sizes and 10 shades). A jar of Sol de Janeiro Brazilian Bum Bum body cream made with a caffeine-rich guarana extract formula to help smooth and tighten skin. Reviewers are in loooove with this stuff, and some reviewers even use it as, like, a perfume. Yeah, it smells that good, and trust me, you're gonna wanna find out *just* how good it smells. Now I'm daydreaming about ot. Let me go sniff my jar of it. A popular Kayali vanilla 28 perfume that has reviewers spellbound with its warm, sweet, gourmand aroma. This is a fragrance masterpiece you def won't ever be able to part ways with. Promising reviews: "I blind bought this perfume and it did not disappoint. I hope they never change it and never discontinue it. I WILL BUY THIS FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE." —SDR11"Omg, why am I just now finding out about this?? By far the best perfume in my life!! I bought the small travel size in case I didn't like it, and omg, I NEED the big one NOW! It's a need, not a want! Seriously, so many compliments. Great for all ages and long-lasting!

This brow pencil is my guilty pleasure. It's just reliable, and we love a reliable product. 👏🏽👏🏽 I've been using this for probably close to 10 years. It is a splurge product for me; I do fall for cheaper alternatives and such, but whenever I return, it reminds me that this brow pencil is truly unbeatable. It's really in its own lane. The pencil is sooo thin, so it helps create the most natural, realistic brow-like strokes, which is the look I LOVE. I mean, just look at the pic above, you can literally see the hair strokes I made using this. The colors are also so natural, I personally love the soft brown, even though my hair is naturally a very dark brown — it just looks the most realistic for me. Anastasia, girl, you did your big one with this... oh, and are you a witch? You can tell me, I won't tell anyone. Promising reviews: "This is my go to eyebrow pencil! I have tried many different brands, but I always end up returning to Anastasia Brow Wiz. It stays in place and it looks natural without being too harsh! Excellent product!" —Amy E. Newby"Love this product. Will forever buy this product. Goes on smooth and stays on all day." —Sara A SmithGet it from Amazon for $25 (available in 12 shades).

I have been using this Anua serum for several weeks now and it works! My biggest, darkest spot is taking longer than the others, but I apply it every day and have seen a huge improvement. The smaller ones have all disappeared already. Highly recommend." —Daniel Gaither"WHEN I TELL YOU I've never seen my skin glow like this ever in my life, and I've tried EVERYTHING!

An Armani luminous silk foundation with "Micro-fil" magic that'll instantly smooth the appearance of texture, pores, and fine lines. Remember that magic mask from Goosebumps that kinda morphed into the little girl's skin? This'll be like that, but way less spooky. Promising review: "Perfect! I will never buy a different foundation! Wow! I am in love! I have had the hardest time finding a good foundation for my very dry skin!! Granted, in the past, I never spent more than $15 for foundation other than IL Makiage and even though I did my research to try and find my matching shade for IL, alas, I could not. Plus, it was just too thick and goopy, and no matter what I put on before the IL foundation, all my dry skin showed through! Next up, Armani Luminous Silk and voila... pure MAGIC! Light to medium coverage. All other foundations show my dry, peeling, cracking skin, but not this one! And it has a nice, attractive sheen to it! Finally, my quest to find the best foundation is complete!" —WWinks17Get it from Sephora for $48+ (available in two sizes and 38 shades).

Say bippity-boppity-buh-bye to the acne on your chest thanks to this phenomenal little potion. Promising review: "I have dealt with bacne for a very, very long time. I have never been able to get rid of it, no matter what I have used. I have always wanted to wear backless dresses and bikinis, but I have been too uncomfortable with how my back looked. I started using this stuff and within a week, my back is clearing up so much! I feel a lot more confident and comfortable now. This is the product I will buy forever." —Angie WGet it from Amazon for $29. A Nars soft matte concealer so magical, you'll be searching for a witch to thank. The creamy, full-coverage formula will blur and conceal any imperfections and leave you looking soft, natural, and matte as heck. This product has held it down for me for YEARS. I especially use it when I dance; it lasts me through long, sweaty show days and still looks flawless by the end of the day. I like other concealers, but this one is *top-tier*; it never fails me. I always return to this because she's reliable, matte, and has perfect, long-lasting coverage. Since I'm as oily as it gets, I do prefer this to the radiant one, although I do like that one, too. There's just really nothing like this, it def hits different. It was the first makeup product I tried and decided I'd repurchase forever. And the little pot lasts for a looong time. At them moment, I'm getting over a terrible, stress-induced breakout where I popped every pimple I had cuz I ran out of pimple patches, so now I have tons of dark marks. This is the only concealer out of the entire drawer full that I own that actually covers my dark spots. If you're as shiny as Tamatoa from Moana, you won't regret a single thing about this purchase.

These hydrocolloid patches'll extract impurities, target blemishes and blackheads, soothe and minimize redness, *and* help promote clear-looking skin. Stick it, don't pick it, and say peace out ✌️ to that pimple. Promising review: "I can't believe these dots. I usually get deep, never-ending, very inflamed pimples. Just when I think they're done, they last forever. I had been looking at these dots for a while, but wasn't sure whether to spend the money on 20 dots. It was so worth it!! I had a big pimple on my forehead right before a big series of presentations this week. I put a dot on at bedtime, and by morning, it was a million times better. I still can't believe it. I'll be buying these forever." —vw358Get a 20-pack from Sephora for $19 (also available in other pack sizes). A Too Faced "Better Than Sex" mascara that'll condition your lashes while also adding volume and length, locking your lash curl in place. You'll get the false lash drama without the discomfort. Promising reviews: "Okay… just wow!! So I was looking for a mascara that would actually make my eyelashes look good without having to apply, like, 50 coats before they popped, and this mascara is it! With only one coat, they pop so quickly! It goes on so smoothly, and I absolutely love how thick my lashes become so quickly! Highly recommend this mascara! I will never turn back to any others now!" —Ashly Richardson"This mascara is by far the BEST mascara I've ever used. No matter the price, I will now purchase this forever." —Alexandra MeoliGet it from Amazon for $13.60+ (available in two sizes, two shades, and a two-pack). A cuticle oil pen to make keeping 'em moisturized a way easier task that you can even do on the go. Ever look down at your hands and notice how absolutely dry your cuticles are and no amount of lotion can save them? Well, call this thing Iron Man cuz it can! Plus, if your nails are weak and brittle, this can help strengthen them. Promising review: "I've always had weak nails that would easily break, so I've never been able to grow them long. The gel manicures I get have made them even worse. Within two weeks of using this once to twice a day, I could not believe how good my nails were looking. They're not titanium strong, but compared to how thin and brittle they were, they're now much stronger. They don't break. They've also grown a lot. I don't usually have to file or cut my nails because they never grow that long, but today I had to! Will keep buying this forever. Love it." —AnonGet it from Amazon for $8.99 (available in six scents). A four-pack of bio-collagen overnight masks that'll work to deliver you tighter pores, tons of skin elasticity, improved skin texture and tone, and *loads* of hydration. I promise you don't have to recite any incantations, simply put it on at night and wake up with glowy, radiant skin. Promising review: "I was blown away by how moisturizing this mask actually was. It definitely was everything the ad said it was going to be. The first 30 minutes I had to adjust it a little, but as it began to dry, it didn't move, and I went to bed with no trouble (I'm a side sleeper). It peeled off easily in the morning, and I just couldn't believe how well it worked. I've been using one every 5–6 days. I will never stop using these!!" —jessica a four-pack from Amazon for $19 (available in three styles and a 16-pack). Gold Bond's firming neck and chest cream to help improve texture and firmness, gently exfoliate, and hydrate your skin. Umm, these review pics are kinda... mind boggling. I– I'm actually speechless. This is definitely heaven-sent. Promising reviews: "I just purchased my second tube! This is the only thing I've tried that actually works. Been using it for over a month, applying it every morning and night, and there is a big difference in my neck. I will never be without it." —Jlacaria"This stuff rocks! I'm a big skeptic of products that claim to make your skin look younger, firmer, erase wrinkles, improve skin tone, etc. The only way all that can be achieved is with surgery, lasers, fillers, and Botox. A skin care product can only do so much with the right ingredients and at the right concentration.I wanted to improve the look of my neck and the horizontal lines. I bought this because Gold Bond has been around forever, and it was a good price point. I've been using it twice a day now for just over a month, morning and night. I cannot believe the results! My horizontal neck lines are drastically improved, and my skin is smoother, softer, and more even-toned! The little lines are gone, and my neck is definitely firmer! I wouldn't have believed I could get such noticeable results from a skin cream! Use twice a day after you wash your face and neck. This is a forever product for me, and I definitely recommend!" —Regina McCarthyGet it from Amazon for $11.97 (also available in a two-pack). A Cécred nourishing hair oil that smells absolutely divine and will help seal in moisture without weighing down your locks. It's compiled of 13, yes 13 (!!!) luscious oils to help reinforce your hair's lipid barrier and will have you absolutely feelin' yourself. Reviewers are loving that this lightweight potion actually absorbs into your strands rather than just sitting on top. Oh, nourishing hair oil, ~I love you down to the bone~. Cécred is founded and owned by Beyoncé!I finally got my hands on this bad boy, and oh, baby, it is incredible. I had been trying to figure out how to style my curly clip-in extensions and make them match my real hair, but nothing had been working. I did a braid out three times, and it was a mess, I was literally ready to give up and just straighten my hair again. That is, until I added this. This and the moisture-sealing lotion work ridiculously well together; they're the most magical duo ever for curls. My braid out turned out so perfectly, I'm still in disbelief. Plus, my hair isn't oily!! It absorbed so well. I put it on one side of my hair at a time, and its definition difference was wild. My curls haven't looked this curly in years, and when I add this to my straight extensions, it helps my hair blend so much better. Also, it smells so freakin' good, it's ridiculous. Cécred literally never disappoints. This oil is liquid gold. I'm obsessed. I stand ten toes behind this oil and literally every product I've tried from the line. These are my all-time favorite hair products, no competition. Promising review: "I absolutely adore this hair oil. You get a very generously sized bottle that will last you a long time. The bottle feels heavy and luxurious, and the oil always fixes whatever frizz I've got going on and smells incredible. I'm on my third bottle already, and I will never stop. I will rebuy this until my last days. Worth every penny." —KayGet it from Ulta or Cécred for $22+ (available in two sizes; here's the travel-sized one at Ulta!). A Flamingo razor with four five-blade refills that'll serve you up a *reaaaally* close, comfortable shave. The blades are surrounded by water-activated aloe and shea butter strips to help it effortlessly glide across your skin and protect you from irritation. Plus it comes with a shower holder! Promising reviews: "Ladies, if you're looking for a new razor, stop wasting your time and purchase the Flamingo 5-blade razor right now. I've tried countless other brands of razors — disposable, high-end, you name the Flamingo is by far the very best I've ever used. I'm totally OBSESSED with this razor — the quality of the razor, blades, and mount is superb, and it delivers the closest, smoothest shave ever! Plus, it leaves you feeling moisturized after and never irritated. And, I haven't nicked myself even once with this razor, which is some kind of miracle. You want to try this razor — it just exceeds anything else out there!" —CeCe Silver"I absolutely LOVE this razor. It's perfect for those of us with sensitive skin. This is one of the few disposable razors I've tried that doesn't break me out. I'll forever buy this razor." —Tonya it from Amazon for $15.99+ (available in four colors). Tirtir foundation that won't betray you four hours after applying it by becoming all cracked, cakey, and creased. Makeup nightmare.

A Summer Fridays lip butter for anyone who can't stand dry lips and needs hydration and moisture instantly. This TikTok beloved balm can also double as an overnight lip mask and it comes in *delightful* scents like birthday cake, brown sugar, and sweet mint. Promising reviews: "This has quickly become my go-to lip product. The balm is incredibly hydrating and leaves my lips feeling soft and smooth. I love the subtle shine it gives without being too glossy. The formula is lightweight, non-sticky, and lasts for hours, which is perfect for all-day wear. Plus, it has a pleasant, natural scent that isn't overpowering. The packaging is sleek and easy to carry around, making it convenient for on-the-go use. Overall, the Summer Fridays Lip Balm is a must-have for anyone looking for a high-quality, moisturizing lip balm. Highly recommend!" —Linda J Boss"I love the colors available and how they feel on my lips. Will forever repurchase." —MEP2014Get it from Amazon for $24+ (available in nine scents/colors). An Anua heartleaf pore-clearing cleansing oil perfect for all skin types and will effectively get rid of makeup residue, blackheads, and sebum while also helping to prevent your pores from clogging up. In fact, it's so effective, some reviewers say you can actually see the gunk and oil leave your face. You'll be kinda grossed out by the ick seeping out of your pores while also being shook by the way it literally did a magic trick on your face. Blackheads, be gone! Some bioactivo, a deep conditioner treatment that can also be used as a leave-in that'll help strengthen your hair and leave it all soft and ✨shiny✨ *Tomatoa voice*. According to TikTokers, it's a Dominican hair secret for healthy, flourishing hair. We love a beauty secret. Check out how to make it on TikTok!Promising reviews: "I go to the Dominican Salon in my area and every time I leave there, my hair feels luxurious and sooo soft. I can never achieve this at home. My stylist gave me a vial of this product at her shop and said I could only get it from the DR. Well, this is it! I can finally have the same soft, moisturized, luxurious look at home, this has been a godsend! If you have brittle hair or it's hard to keep moisture in it, then this is your holy grail. Just mix half water with conditioner in a spray bottle, then blow dry or roll up and heat. You will not be disappointed. I almost feel bad giving away this secret because when I go to order more, it may be all gone. Amazon, please keep this item in stock. I will be an avid buyer! Thank you!" —Meechie"This product is something I always keep in stock for myself and my friends. The slip is amazing, it is so healthy for hair, and the results are great! If you swim and need help with minimal to no tangles, this is the stuff to use. Friends from all cultural backgrounds agree and convert the second they use it. This is by far one of my best hair care regimes I will always keep." —Constance GeeGet a 12-count from Amazon for $28.89. A Touchland misting hand sanitizer that you'll quickly realize is far superior to all other sanitizers. First of all, it's a spray (genius), it's hydrating, not sticky or greasy, and will leave your hands sanitized and smelling good as heck. Whether you like fruity smells like watermelon and mango, or warm smells like sandalwood and vanilla, these'll serve as the most perfect sanitizers ever. You'll def want 'em all.

When I get sick, they peel. When I'm anxious or stressed, I pick them. And I'm a nurse, so the hospital dries them out. I have tried EVERYTHING, no exaggeration. I saw a coworker putting the Summer Fridays lip butter balm on and immediately started asking questions. 'Does it work?' 'Do you love it?' 'Have you noticed an improvement in your overall hydration?' Yes to all my questions, so I immediately added it to my cart and purchased it for in-store pickup so I could go straight from work to pick it up! This lip butter is magic! IT WORKS!

Promising review: "I rarely bronze my body, and when I do, I love to use Danessa Myricks Illuminating Veil. However, I tried Sol de Janeiro for the first time, and I immediately fell in love!

As a Black woman, I was a tad bit nervous about this, but the blurring, the brightening, and the coverage are top tier, truly. And it magically still looks flawless at the end of the review: "Huda Beauty powders never miss, and the new Ube Easy Bake Loose Powder is no exception! The formula is already one of the best — finely milled, lightweight, and gives the most flawless, airbrushed finish. If you love a bright, smooth under-eye or a perfected complexion, this is a must-have. The soft lavender tone is perfect for brightening without looking ashy, and it blends like a dream.

I've bought it at least 10 times, and I'm not stopping any time soon. I swear, there's no other pencil like it. I picked up Medium Brown, and let me tell you, it's like it was made for my brows.

Stick it, don't pick it, and say peace out ✌️ to that pimple. Promising reviews: "Now I know what the hype was all about! This stuff is amazing! Wash and dry your face, and put it on before bed. The next morning, you can literally see all the nastiness from the pimple or bump through the patch. When you pull it off, so comes the grossness with it. I wasn't sure why all the kids were walking around with stars on their heads, lol, even my mechanic had one on one day, but this is a major key alert! So glad I found these. It even works with hormonal acne." —Cinsobomb"This is a must-have item in your makeup bag. I was skeptical at first, and now I make sure to always have these in my bag. Works best when you let it work its magic overnight (or if you have a lazy day and can keep it on your face for a few hours). Pure magic, must have!!" —CCG619Price: $19 for a 20-pack (available in three sizes and more multipacks) An Armani luminous silk foundation with "Micro-fil" magic that'll instantly smooth the appearance of texture, pores, and fine lines. Remember that magic mask from Goosebumps that kinda morphed into the little girl's skin? This'll be like that, but way less spooky. Promising reviews: "Normally I never leave reviews, but this item deserves the credit. I finally found a foundation that is a game-changer. It's silky smooth and sits perfectly on my skin. Most foundations I use end up looking 'caked on' and make my pores look big, but this one doesn't do that at all. I don't know what magic they put into this bottle, but it has worked wonders for me, and I will definitely be using this one from now on. —BFlippen"This foundation is amazing. Lightweight enough to feel like I am not wearing products on my skin, and yet enough coverage to even things out. It sits beautifully, doesn't cake, and lasts all day. As someone who typically looks for alternatives or swaps to more expensive products, this is absolutely worth the investment." —randichevPrice: $48+ (available in two sizes and 39 shades) A Laneige plumping lip treatment that'll deliver your pout some deep, lasting hydration, and help boost and preserve the collagen in your lips for a visibly firm look. Promising review: "I simply love this product. The texture keeps my lips fully hydrated all night long, and I wake up with nice, plump lips." —iammarileePrice: $26 A Beauty Blender, the OG makeup sponge miracle that'll leave you with a flawless airbrushed look and help minimize the appearance of pores. Promising review: "Not sure what it is about the original Beauty Blender, but it is the OG of makeup sponges. I've tried off-brand ones, and they tend to soak up product and leave streaks, which this one doesn't do at all. Leaves an air-brush finish and 10/10 worth the hype!" —ssunshine1212Price: $20 A Makeup By Mario skin enhancer, a 3-in-1 sheer coverage balm bronzer that'll blur, illuminate, and set your face, giving you that effortless, dewy, air-brushed look. BTW, since some of our fave Love Island season six stars will soon be back on our screens (screaming), I'd just like to mention that Leah *now you're sendin' three home* Kateb uses it as a contour! Promising reviews: "Quite literally obsessed!!! Most natural bronzer I've ever used, and gives dimension to my skin quickly and effortlessly. I don't even use my contour stick anymore." —AmyMaty"This is the perfect product I've been searching for for years. So glowy but not shiny, perfect bronze tone, looks amazing with no other makeup or with a full face. Will be repurchasing." —JessicanotjessPrice: $32 (available in six shades) A gentle makeup cleansing oil for anyone who wants to see some double cleansing + makeup removing magic. It'll help melt oil-based impurities, while also softening, nourishing, and hydrating your skin. Promising review: "I cannot believe it almost took me until the age of 44 to 'discover' cleansing oil. This is a game changer. I massage it onto dry skin before I shower, and my makeup literally melts off in the shower. I used to use a Foreo and gel cleanser in the shower to remove my makeup, and there would almost always be some makeup left that would transfer to my towel when I dried my face." —chevyoPrice: $13+ (available in two sizes) A Fenty gloss bomb lipstick which Serena from Love Island uses (thanks queen for putting us on to it) and I mean, we all know our girl ALWAYS keeps it 100. You see these colors?! Spectacular, give me 14 of 'em right now. A Refy glow-and-sculpt serum primer *with* a facial roller so you can de-puff and get a healthy, radiant glow ~simultaneously~. And shout out to the niacinamide and glycerin in this magical primer, cuz these two ingredients work together to help visibly brighten, reduce redness, and hydrate your skin. Promising review: "I absolutely love the feel of this primer! It is cooling and just the right amount of sticky to help makeup stick on well. You also have time to apply it to the face without drying too fast. I found that previous primers dry quickly, leaving my makeup patchy, but because of this applicator and formula, I have time to apply it equally. The niacinamide is a plus for oily skin as well! Big fan!" —AloksterPrice: $22+ (available in two sizes) A Makeup by Mario sculpting lip pencil that is absolutely *elite*, I must say. Why? Well, this dual-ended liner features a brush on the other end for flawless blending ~and~ they even give you a sharpener that's Mario-approved, btw. Promising review: "This lip pencil is a game-changer! The deep cocoa brown shade is rich... perfect for creating defined lips or a bold ombré effect. The matte formula is creamy and comfortable, infused with emollients to prevent dryness. It glides on smoothly and stays put, thanks to its lip-lock technology. The dual-ended design includes a built-in brush for seamless blending, making it ideal for on-the-go touch-ups. Whether worn alone or paired with a gloss, it delivers a flawless finish every time." —alexissolorzanoPrice: $26 (available in 19 shades) A color-changing lip and cheek oil stick with a jelly-like texture that'll leave you with a dewy finish. The bright shades will change to gorgeous blush and lippie colors right before your eyes, as if by, hmmm, FAIRY GODPARENTS *Crocker from Fairly Oddparents voice*. Promising review: "I am obsessed with blush and this is certainly one of my faves! The blue color is stunning, and it transforms into the most beautiful pink on my light skin. Looks very natural. I love the jelly texture as it glides on with no effort and is easy to blend with my fingers. I only use this on my cheeks, even though it says you can use it on your lips as well. The twisting mechanism is great. It gives a satisfying click as you twist it. And it's so affordable! —VallerudPrice: $12 (available in three shades) A LYS Beauty cream bronzer stick packed with skincare ingredients like green tea extract, rosehip oil, and watermelon seed extract. You'll get an easy-to-blend, sculpted, defined look *and* moisturized, replenished, plump skin. LYS Beauty is a Black-owned biz!Promising review: "SO CREAMY!!! After using contours that left me looking orange and not that blended, I'm SO glad I found this. It's the perfect color, blends well, and is so creamy while applying. And for such a good price!" —Viviennelee19Price: $21 (available in seven shades) Dae Cactus Fruit 3-in-1 Styling Cream that'll have your curls looking their absolute best. It's perfect for slicked back styles because it's not greasy, so you don't have to wash it out to get that volume back in your hair (which, I mean, big deal!) Whether you're using this to define your curls or to prep for a blowout with *extra* shine, you'll love this magically versatile bottle of witchcraft... I mean styling cream. A vitamin C under-eye cream inspired by banana powder, which makeup artists use to deliver brighter under-eyes. It'll help hydrate, illuminate, and prep your skin for makeup while also working its magic over time to brighten your dark circles. Promising review: "Love this stuff. As a mom of two to a newborn and a toddler, my circles were VERY dark. I tried a ton of other eye creams, and this is the only one that actually makes a difference for dark circles. Bonus is that it hydrates the area as well." —MisCaitPrice: $45 A Dior lip oil, an internet fave which contains ch-ch-ch-cherry bomb... wait no, that's not right, cherry oil to protect your pout from dryness and deliver all the hydration and nourishment your lips could ever want. Promising reviews: "This oil, this oil, this oil!!! It doesn't matter what I eat or drink, I can lick my lips, and even after the shine is gone, my lips are still hydrated and don't feel dried out. That's most important to me. I use this when I go to bed, and my lips are still hydrated in the morning. Hesitate no longer on purchasing this lip oil. And for even more supple and hydrated lips, exfoliate first, then apply this oil. You won't be disappointed!" —Terri21"This stuff is magic! Before I purchased, I had dealt with lip issues for years. I had dry, peeling lips, but after the first few days of applying this, my lips feel so much better. They're softer and feel moisturized throughout the day! I love it and I will be repurchasing whenever I run out!" —JosesonlinePrice: $40 (available in 11 shades) A ~dreamy~ Haus Labs foundation by Lady Gaga that has TikTok in a *literal* chokehold. Seriously, in every video, this stuff magically matches reviewers' skin to 👏 a 👏 T! It's like it melts right in.

A Topicals brightening serum with kojic acid and niacinamide — a witchy concoction that'll help you *poof* away discoloration. If you've been fighting for your life trying to make those post-blemish marks from that pimple you couldn't help but pop vanish, grab this. Topicals is a Black woman-owned small biz!Promising review: "I am always skeptical of the 'I noticed a difference within 24 hours' reviews, but in this case, it's true! I have deep acne scars near my mouth and sun damage near my eyes, and after one day of use, the scars looked noticeably lighter. No progress yet on the sun damage, but with how quickly it worked on the scars, I'm absolutely going to keep trying! It's a thick consistency like Neosporin, which I'm a little nervous may clog my pores, but so far, so good! Really impressed." —arand28Price: $28 Nars radiant creamy concealer because a buildable, lightweight, long-lasting (up to 16 hours) concealer sounds like the ultimate makeup dream. Your under-eyes will be nice and bright even on those days where you only get, like, four hours of sleep. Plus it has magnolia bark and grape seed extracts to help cover acne and calm redness, so likeee, what more could you need outta this little baby? A One/Size blurring setting powder which I'm, like, 98% sure Fiona and Cordelia Goode from AHS: Coven conjured up. Silky smooth, poreless-looking, matte skin for up to 14 hours?! Where's the cauldron that this was made in? A Tower 28 hydrating gel cleanser + makeup remover crafted with oat extract and 100% pure aloe vera. This gem of a skincare product is perfect for all kinds of skin (oily, dry, combo, ALL OF IT) and will help soothe irritation, target redness, deliver hydration, and get rid of SPF, oils, and dirt. And it does it all without leaving your skin feeling tight! Miracle cleanser? I think so. A Huda Beauty under-eye color corrector — a crease-, sweat-, and transfer-proof potion that'll blend seamlessly and brighten your under eyes. Promising reviews: "This is what I have been looking for all along. I was always insecure about my dark circles, and for some reason, it never looked quite right with just concealer. Then I learned I was missing a color corrector, but all the other brands I tried made my under eyes look super strange. This was PERFECT and my makeup looks sooo smooth. Finally found the right product for me!!!" —greenlemons"Where has this been all my life? It's not cakey or too thin or shiny. This shade does the impossible task of hiding my purple/green/yellow under-eye bags without creasing or looking like I smeared lipstick under my eyes. This will become a staple in my makeup bag." —shweeberPrice: $31 (available in six shades) A Glow Recipe serum blush, *or* flush that works as a skincare product and a dewy cheek tint. It can help brighten dark spots, plump your cheeks, and hydrate all while providing you the perfect, buildable, natural flush that'll seamlessly melt into your skin. Promising review: "This is perfect for the beach, summer, no makeup, light makeup, and full glam. It adds glow to the cheeks and lasts ALL DAY. Finally, it is impossible to mess up because it is blendable and user-friendly. PS: if you have blush blindness, this is for you." —catlover229Price: $25 (available in two shades) A Kulfi laminating brow gel, which contains ingredients like vitamin E, sunflower and safflower oils, and roselle hibiscus for soft, nourished, moisturized eyebrows that also look absolutely amazing and professionally done. Kulfi Beauty is a South Asian-owned small review: "At first I wasn't too impressed... after a couple of weeks of everyday use, my brows have never looked better. I don't even need to fill them in. Follow the instructions to a T (brush against the brow growth, use the plastic comb to brush up through the arch and then down at the tail, use the black brush to press down and set the brow hairs) for the best application and all-day hold. I have bushy brows, and the hair grows downwards, but this makes them look like fluffy masterpieces. Amazing!!! —MellalinaPrice: $26 A Haus Labs glassy balm highlighter stick that'll have you looking like a hydrated, glowing angel. Plus, it's formulated with 64% skincare actives like wakame extract, hyaluronic acid, and sea fennel extract. Promising review: "This product is sooo pretty. It blends into the skin more naturally than a powder highlight and doesn't look glittery, just a beautiful, ethereal finish. I have worn it with cream blushes and foundation, and it layers nicely. —kendra1991Price: $30 (available in six shades) "Homecurl" by Fenty Beauty, a gel-cream that'll shape, define, and enhance your curls in just one step. It's tough on split ends but will still give your hair some soft, touchable body and bounce. This stuff takes "wash and go" VERY seriously. Promising review: "10/10. 5 stars. ROUND OF APPLAUSE. This stuff is the BOMB. Firstly, if I could eat this product, I would. I'm not exaggerating when I say this is the BEST smelling hair product I have EVER used (and I've tried quite a few, folks). I am so, so happy to have finally found a product that suits my thick 2c/3a hair. I have a mix of curls and waves and often struggle to find something that 1) makes my entire head look good, and 2) lasts for more than a day. Whether I braid or blow dry/diffuse my hair, it always looks fantastic when I use The Homecurl. Up until this point, I'd been using a mix of curl cream and gel, but often found it was too heavy for my hair and weighed it down after a day. This product feels so light in my hair, but has an amazing hold and does exactly what it claims to do." —TaliaSapphirePrice: $16+ (available in two sizes) A Patrick Ta body glow balm that'll have people thinking you're lying about being human cuz with a glow like that, you gotta be a mystical magical fairy orrrr a Cullen. Just imagine how AMAZING you'll look this summer when the sun kisses your collar bone and you begin to shine like that crab in Moana. Beach trips, rooftop lunches, THE IG PICS?! Yep, a summer must-have. A Rare Beauty liquid blush by our fave wizard, Selena Gomez, available in both a matte and dewy finish! This blush is beautifully pigmented, so a little goes a long way. Seriously, I think she made this on Waverly Place with her brothers cuz it's actually magic. A serum-boosted skin tint that'll give you a lightweight, sheer finish for a fresh-faced, *no makeup* look. If you feel like foundation is just way too heavy for summer and want something a bit more glowy and natural, you should def check this beauty balm out. Oh, it's giving skin for sure.
