This £6.75 product from The Ordinary is my summer pedicure must-have
When TikTok tells you to put a facial toner on the soles of your feet – namely The Ordinary glycolic acid 7% exfoliating toner (£6.75, – you, of course, give it a go. It's a tough job, but someone has to do it. The craze first came to my attention when TikToker Elle McNamara appeared on my FYP, pointing out the sub-£10 product as the key to quick, exfoliated feet. As someone who's spent many an evening pre-holiday with pumice stones, foot files and sugar scrubs in hand, I was naturally intrigued. In the video, McNamara says, 'This is the most underrated hygiene product. Apply glycolic acid onto a cotton pad onto damp feet. It eats away your dead skin. Follow with a layer of vaseline, put some socks on and thank me later.' With my glycolic, cotton pads, Vaseline and socks ready to go, I thought to myself: 'It can't be this easy. Can it?' Keep reading to see how I got on. How I tested The Ordinary glycolic acid 7% exfoliating toner: With an aim to use the product over the course of three nights, I applied The Ordinary's glycolic acid to the soles of my feet using a cotton pad, saturating it generously. I then rubbed a pea-sized amount of Vaseline onto each foot and quickly slipped on some cotton socks to lock in the moisture and left the duo of products on my feet through the night. During and after testing, I recorded the following details: Efficacy: As someone often pressed for time, I was keen to see if this unique use for TO's glycolic would present instant results, or require repeat, consistent use. Value for money: This toner is very affordable, but if I need to use a third of a bottle every time I use it, that 'budget buy' is quickly going to rack up a serious expense. Likewise, if I need to use it 10 times as much as a pumice stone, it likely won't prove as cost effective. Long-term results: The real clincher – how long will this toner leave my feet looking smooth (if at all)? Why you can trust IndyBest reviews Lucy Smith is a skincare expert and has been reviewing the industry's newest and most popular products for more than five years. For IndyBest, she's demonstrated her exfoliating know-how with expert-led pieces on salicylic acid and, after speaking with Kate Somerville, the benefits of lactic acid. She's tested several of The Ordinary's best-sellers, from its multi-active delivery essence to its SPF serum.

Guys need skin care too. Here are the best moisturizers for men, tested and reviewed
The best moisturizers for men we tested Best moisturizer for men: Harry's Hydrating Night Lotion Best moisturizer for men with sensitive skin: The Ordinary Natural Moisturizing Factors + HA There are plenty of excellent men's moisturizers on the market, yet most guys take a lax approach to skin care routines, preferring the drugstore bargain bin to Sephora, if they use anything at all. But that's changing. Dermatology nurse practitioner Catie Boucher at the SavvyDerm clinic said guys are 'breaking the age-old stigma that men shouldn't put any thought into their skin health.' Male patients, she added, 'simply need direction as to what they should be using and in what order.' I'm here to provide that direction. Along with five other fellas at CNN Underscored, I tested 12 of the most widely available face moisturizers so you don't have to. After two weeks of slathering, spreading and smearing — plus a few interviews with skincare experts — I settled on two great options that you can ship to your door. Harry's Hydrating Night Lotion Clueless about skin care? With its lightweight, quick-to-absorb ingredients, pleasant aroma and accessible price, Harry's Hydrating Night Lotion is the best moisturizer for most men. The Ordinary Natural Moisturizing Factors + HA If fragrances are a deal breaker or you prefer a richer consistency, The Ordinary also offers a high-quality moisturizer that provides all-day hydration on a budget. When I asked fashion and beauty editor Sophie Shaw to critique my product pool, I was surprised she added Harry's. What could a men's razor company know about skin care? Quite a bit, it turns out. Harry's skin care launched in 2021 to positive reviews, and five years later, our testing confirms its products hold up, with the line's nighttime moisturizer pulling ahead of formulas five times its price. The light, easy-to-absorb lotion hydrated associate testing writer Joe Bloss' combination skin without feeling heavy. 'If anything, it was a soothing layer that felt natural,' Bloss said. But superb moisturization is half the story. With the added niacinamide, the formula addressed Bloss' main concern: enlarged pores. 'Having [niacinamide] included in a soothing night lotion like this fits perfectly in my routine,' he said. The best part is that it's a steal. At just over $5 an ounce, it's the third-cheapest moisturizer we tested and way more affordable than premium formulas from Kiehl's, Malin+Goetz and Paula's Choice (which also performed worse, by the way). The only downside I found was the added chamomile and palo santo fragrances. According to Dr. Brendan Camp, a double board-certified dermatologist at MDCS Dermatology, men with sensitive skin should steer clear of fragrances and dyes. But men who can tolerate scents, like Bloss and senior tech writer Mike Andronico, will welcome the pleasant aroma, which Bloss said was 'not overpowering at all and quite nice.' The Ordinary takes a different approach than most, favoring science-backed ingredients and affordability over flashy packaging and in-your-face branding. The strategy pays off. In my testing, the formula locked in moisture and hydrated my skin for the entire day. If anything, I found it too heavy for my oily skin, especially in the summer when sweat and grease conspire to turn my nose and forehead (aka the T-zone) into an oil field. But once I started using less of the buttery formula, it hydrated without adding excess heft or irritation with fragrances or oils. Guys like me should use less, while those with drier skin can be more liberal with their application. That's why it's our second pick. With its clean ingredients and first-rate hydration, it's a moisturizer anyone can use, even men with sensitive skin who need to avoid fragrances and dyes. It's simply a matter of calibrating the dose based on your skin type. But it's The Ordinary's price that gave it an edge over other moisturizers on our list. Costing as little as $4 an ounce, this moisturizer isn't just cheap; it's the second-cheapest formula we tested. And considering a little goes a long way, I could see stretching a tube of this stuff for months. You can't properly test skin care products on your own, so I teamed up with five guys at CNN Underscored to test each moisturizer featured. Not only did this ensure I could include a variety of skin types but it also allowed for a larger testing pool. The setup was simple. Using an intake form, I assigned two moisturizers to each tester, tailoring products to skin types. We then spent around a week using each moisturizer, applying it twice per day and evaluating products based on the criteria fashion and beauty editor Sophie Shaw established in her guide to the best moisturizer for dry skin. Formula: How did the formula feel on the skin? What was the application process like? Absorption: Was it easy to rub in? Did it absorb after application? Moisturizing: Did it hydrate the skin for the entire day and night? Additional benefits: If the moisturizer had other active ingredients (e.g., SPF), were they effective? Value: Given its performance, is it worth the price? The four experts I spoke to said all agreed that before you can find the right moisturizer, you have to know your skin type. The American Academy of Dermatology Association (ADA) lists five common skin types: Sensitive skin reacts to fragrances and other irritating ingredients in products. Camp suggests choosing fragrance- and dye-free products. Normal skin tolerates many skin care formulas and is typically free of blemishes. Dry skin is rough, flaky and lacks oil. 'Dry skin responds best to moisturizers with ingredients that mimic the skin's natural oil (sebum), such as squalane and ceramides,' Camp said. Oily skin is greasy, shiny and may be prone to acne. Dr. Marisa Garshick, a board-certified dermatologist at MDCS Dermatology, suggests selecting 'lightweight, oil-free or gel formulas.' Combination skin is oily in some areas and dry in others. For this skin type, look for something that hydrates without clogging pores or adding oil. Beyond tailoring your moisturizer to your skin type, consider your needs. Men who want to reduce wrinkles should look for anti-aging products that feature ingredients like vitamin C and ceramides. Want the simplest routine possible? Find a moisturizer that includes sunscreen, so you have one fewer step in the morning. Whatever you pick, don't limit yourself to men's moisturizer. 'This may not be a popular opinion, but in my experience, companies that market their products to men specifically are simply using masculine packaging and marketing tactics to grab the attention of the male audience,' Boucher said. Geologie Clear System Clear Face Cream Don't be fooled by Geologie's placement in this guide. Though I wish it were cheaper, it's a great 2-in-1 moisturizer that felt hydrating and light on my oily, acne-prone skin. Geologie's face cream wowed me with its sunscreen-infused formula, and had I picked more winners, it would have made it on the podium. Its ability to hydrate was excellent, leaving my skin moisturized and happy without adding grease to my oily, acne-prone skin. The skin-soothing niacinamide and sun protection were nice touches too. Though SPF 15 is lower than the ADA's recommendation of SPF 30 or higher, it's enough to block some harmful rays and a shortcut for men too lazy to complicate their routine with a dedicated face sunscreen. It's hard to say whether the azelaic acid brightened my skin or reduced acne, however. During the week I used the formula, I had a breakout. I don't pin this on the moisturizer — sometimes blemishes just appear — but I don't think this formula will radically clear up acne. (For that, I recommend an exfoliating cleanser like Neutrogena's Stubborn Texture Cleanser.) Its price also disqualified it from earning a number-one spot. Yes, $9 an ounce isn't unfair or expensive — you do get a lot of active ingredients — but it's around double the price of our winners' per-unit costs. Even so, men with oily, acne-prone skin should absolutely try this moisturizer, which is one of the best I've used. Jaxon Lane Relax and Repair Anti-Aging Moisturizer If anti-aging ingredients are a must, Jaxon Lane's pricey moisturizer is a quality product that pairs well with serums. If you've started counting gray hairs, it might be time to switch to Jaxon Lane's Anti-Aging Moisturizer. While expensive, associate programming editor Kevin Martinez said it was the best moisturizer he tested for this piece, complimenting its lightweight, niacinamide-infused formula, which paired well with his vitamin C and retinol anti-aging serums. 'I used this as a daily moisturizer, and even after spending a day at the beach, it delivered an instant cooling, hydrating feeling,' Martinez said. 'My skin felt and looked more supple after using this just a couple of times.' He wished the price were lower and that it came with SPF for daytime use, however. But the complaints ended there. The only caveat he added was that the moisturizer left a 'dewy finish,' though it quickly 'melted' into his skin. Still, the $18 per ounce price invites the question: Does Jaxon Lane's moisturizer perform three times as well as The Ordinary's excellent fragrance-free moisturizer? Probably not, unless reducing or preventing wrinkles is your main concern. Jack Black Double-Duty Face Moisturizer Want to moisturize your skin and smell great? Jack Black's sun-protective moisturizer will do the trick, especially if you don't mind paying top dollar. You'd be forgiven for thinking 'School of Rock' star Jack Black had something to do with this company. (After all, Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson launched Papatui men's skin care in 2024.) But the similarities are in name only. Even so, the brand's moisturizer deserves attention for its easy-to-absorb, SPF 20 formula. 'I'm not a big 'skin care routine' guy, so anything that lets me knock out all my layers with as few products as possible is a big plus, especially in the middle of a brutal New York summer,' Andronico said. That's true of a lot of men, making Jack Black's 2-in-1 solution a compelling option for guys who need an easy-to-absorb moisturizer with SPF. Fans of fragrances will also appreciate its blue algae extract and sea parsley smell, which Andronico loved and said 'made the process of applying [it] that much more refreshing.' As much as Andronico liked the formula, he said the price seemed high. 'The addition of the sunscreen certainly ups the value, but I'd want a bigger moisturizer if I'm paying $32,' he said. Malin+Goetz Vitamin E Face Moisturizer Malin+Goetz's fragrance-free moisturizer is excellent, particularly if you have sensitive skin, but it's priced far higher than drugstore products. Senior testing editor Rick Stella had high praise for this premium moisturizer from trendy skin care and fragrance brand Malin+Goetz. Not only did Stella's dry skin look great immediately after application but it remained hydrated for hours, if not the whole day. The moisturizer also delivered on its promise to accommodate sensitive skin types, thanks to its fragrance-free formula, which caused zero issues for Stella's irritation-prone skin. 'I often have to be quite careful with what I put on my skin, but this didn't harm my skin at all,' he said. But there's no getting around the moisturizer's price, which starts at $54 for 4 ounces, or around $14 per ounce. To be sure, the product is good, but $50 is probably too expensive for most people. My advice? Save this for the occasional self-care splurge or gift idea. Kiehl's Ultra Facial Cream Like Malin + Goetz's formula, Kiehl's excelled at moisturizing our tester's skin. (It's also a product Shaw "truly can't live without.") It's just way too expensive at $23 an ounce. Despite the 'ultra' moniker, Stella found Kiehl's Facial Cream light enough that he didn't mind reapplying it in the evening. 'It absorbed quite quickly and never felt too slimy or like it took longer than a few seconds to settle in on my skin,' he said, adding that its appearance was matte. Its hydrating power also earned his approval, keeping Stella's skin feeling and looking healthy for most of the day without irritating his sensitive skin. That shouldn't come as a surprise, as Kiehl's packs its formula with moisturizing ingredients while avoiding parabens and fragrances, earning it a Seal of Acceptance from the National Eczema Association. But at $23 an ounce, this moisturizer is the most expensive formula we tested, and it doesn't even offer sun protection, anti-aging ingredients or other bonuses you'd expect from a top-shelf product. Nevertheless, Stella said it's 'still a great moisturizer' that he might splurge on now and then. Paula's Choice Invisible Finish Moisture Gel Men who want a lightweight formula should consider gel moisturizers — but not this one. It left our tester's skin dry, even right after applying it. Gel moisturizers tend to be lightweight and fast-absorbing, so they're a good choice for men who don't want a rich, caked-on feeling. That said, Bloss said this scentless formula was thick and 'jarring at first,' though 'not in the way a really heavy, creamy moisturizer would be.' Because it was so dense, absorption took longer, but it was ultimately hydrating, making the skin 'ultra smooth and not shiny.' Later in the day, however, hydration waned, leaving Bloss with slightly drier skin as the hours passed. Considering that middling performance, this moisturizer didn't impress despite including all the right ingredients, from niacinamide to hyaluronic acid. That's especially true when you factor in its $20 per ounce price. Oars + Alps Travel Sunscreen and Face Moisturizer Oars + Alps deserves praise for including SPF 37, which provides ample protection from harmful UVB radiation. But our tester said it felt more like a creamy sunscreen than a daily moisturizer. This 2-in-1 formula felt more like a sunscreen than a moisturizer, Martinez said, who described the consistency as thick and rich. It came with the same frustrations of cream-based sunscreens too, occasionally leaving a residue and white cast on Martinez's skin. Yet, he still appreciated the double-duty formula, which he said would come in handy on a trip. 'For under $20 and as a 2-in-1 moisturizer with SPF 37, I'd surely buy this again as a travel moisturizer or for days when I just want to apply moisturizer and go out the door without worrying about applying SPF,' he said. La Roche-Posay Toleriane Double Repair Matte Face Moisturizer Even if they're mattifying, moisturizers should moisturize. Unfortunately, this one wasn't hydrating enough for our tester's combination skin, though it might work for oily skin types. French skin care brand La Roche-Posay is a favorite among derms for providing first-rate products at drugstore prices. Yet, our testers found both La Roche formulas lacking. Outdoors, sustainable living and pets editor Kai Burkhardt said the mattifying, gel-like formula felt heftier than other lightweight moisturizers he's tested, though it did absorb quickly. His main complaint was that it wasn't hydrating enough, even with the addition of skin barrier-strengthening ceramides. 'This one says it's for combination skin, and I think that's pretty true, but I personally would want an even more moisturizing formula,' Burkhardt said. 'Even though I have combo skin, I'm on the drier side, so I wanted a bit more out of this one.' La Roche-Posay Cicaplast Balm B5 Multipurpose Cream This formula was full of contradictions. It applied quite thick and creamy, while its moisturization was lacking. I'd skip it as a face moisturizer, but consider it if you need a versatile skin protectant. Andronico had some of the same complaints about La Roche-Posay's balm as Burkhardt had about the Toleraine Double Repair. He said the balm 'felt very dry,' which is strange because the balm 'felt very thick,' lingering on Andronico's face even after he tried rubbing it in. If a moisturizer is thick and creamy, you'd better hope it moisturizes. Admittedly, this product is marketed more as a multipurpose skin protectant than a face moisturizer, and perhaps it excels more in that regard. The fragrance-free formula is certainly great for sensitive skin, making it suitable for babies as young as one week, chemotherapy patients and people with eczema, according to the brand. Cetaphil Gentle Clear Mattifying Acne Moisturizer Cetaphil's formula was bad on all accounts, dehydrating our tester's skin and failing to improve his acne. The silver lining is its dirt-cheap price. Cetaphil's Mattifying Moisturizer has all the trappings of a great product. It's got salicylic acid to clear pores, a gel-like texture suitable for oily skin and clean ingredients. Sadly, the formula dried Burkhardt's skin, leaving a 'flaky spot' on his face after the first few days of use. Burkhardt speculates that it might work for 'very oily skin' — the gel-like formula was mattifying and absorbed quickly — but its 0.5% salicylic acid formulation didn't do anything for his acne. 'I had some small blemishes,' he said, 'and they didn't clear up faster than normal.' That's unfortunate because this moisturizer was the cheapest we tested, costing around $4 per ounce. The following FAQs have been answered by dermatologists Dr. Brendan Camp, Dr. Marisa Garshick and Dr. Noah Gratch, as well as dermatology nurse practitioner Catie Boucher. Why is moisturizer important for men? Why is moisturizer important for men? 'Face moisturizer replenishes skin with hydration, fortifies the skin barrier and improves the quality and texture of skin,' Gratch said. Moisturizing is especially important for men who shave often, Boucher added, as they're essentially exfoliating their skin every day and need the extra hydration. Are there differences between men's and women's skin? Are there differences between men's and women's skin? Yes, the four experts I spoke to agreed that men and women have different skin. 'Men's skin tends to be thicker, oilier and may have larger pores,' Garshick said. 'That can affect product choice, as men may prefer nongreasy, fast-absorbing formulas that are lightweight and won't clog the pores.' Since men shave, Boucher said they also need a hydrating serum to 'calm and hydrate the skin, as well as to prevent ingrown hairs and razor burn.' How often should men apply moisturizer? How often should men apply moisturizer? Men should use moisturizers at least once a day, according to Gratch. However, Boucher said that each individual's optimal frequency will depend 'on many factors, such as skin type, goals and whether or not they are shaving daily.' How should you incorporate moisturizer into your skin care routine? How should you incorporate moisturizer into your skin care routine? Apply face moisturizers to clean, slightly damp skin, Camp said. 'When using a serum, moisturizers are applied after the serum,' he added. 'In the morning, an SPF 30 or higher sunscreen can be layered on top of a regular moisturizer.' To determine which men's moisturizers worked best, we gathered a testing panel of six male CNN Underscored staffers with various skin types, concerns and existing skin care routines. Senior tech editor Mike Andronico doesn't typically use a moisturizer and has dry skin. His skin care concerns are dryness and redness. Associate testing writer Joe Bloss wants to reduce pore size and hydrate his combination skin. He currently moisturizes daily. Outdoors, sustainable living and pets editor Kai Burkhardt uses a moisturizer daily for his combination skin. His main concerns include breakouts, sensitive skin, pore size and dry skin. Associate programming editor Kevin Martinez has dry skin and moisturizes daily. Associate updates writer Maxwell Shukuya moisturizes daily and has oily, acne-prone skin. He'd like to find a moisturizer that hydrates while also controlling oil and reducing breakouts. Senior testing editor Rick Stella has dry, sensitive skin and moisturizes daily. Skin care can be complex, so I spoke to three dermatologists and one dermatology nurse practitioner to learn more about men's moisturizers. Catie Boucher, board-certified dermatology nurse practitioner and founder of SavvyDerm skin clinic in Millville, Delaware Dr. Brendan Camp, double board-certified dermatologist at MDCS Dermatology in New York Dr. Marisa Garshick, board-certified dermatologist at MDCS Dermatology in New York and New Jersey Dr. Noah Gratch, board-certified dermatologist at MCDS Dermatology in New York CNN Underscored thoroughly tests the products in our testing guides and provides full transparency about how we test them. We have a skilled team of writers and editors who have many years of testing experience and ensure each article is carefully edited and products are properly vetted. We talk to top experts when relevant to make certain we are testing each product accurately, recommending only the best products and considering the pros and cons of each item. To find the best moisturizer for men, associate updates writer Maxwell Shukuya interviewed qualified dermatologists and a dermatology nurse practitioner to learn more about men's skin care. He then worked with fashion and beauty editor Sophie Shaw to come up with a strong product pool, evaluation criteria and an intake form for panel testers. Six product testing experts, including Shukuya, tried moisturizers for a week before submitting feedback, which Shukuya used to crown our winners.

28 Beauty Products To Help You Glow
A vitamin C and antioxidant-rich serum that'll help brighten your skin. This serum uses vitamin C, collagen, sodium hyaluronate, and lavender oil, all of which will help your skin look super glowy. Promising review: "I ordered this product after a colleague had recommended it. I had developed some acne and scarring from wearing a face mask. Most of the acne was around my cheek area. Once masks weren't required anymore, I was a bit embarrassed by my skin's condition. I've only ever used face wash and didn't know the importance of moisturizing. This has helped clear up my skin and even it out. I've been using it for about four months now and only have very minimal scarring left. The price is worth it. I have actually been using it daily and use about 3–4 drops a day. Still have over half the bottle left. Definitely a good investment. It has a light fragrance and will help your skin look dewy without feeling oily." —Lupita LunaGet it from Amazon for $31.50. A skincare starter kit for those who need help setting up their routine. It comes with a gel cleanser, serum, and hydrating cream that'll help smooth your face and brighten it. It's glowy skin season, and there's no one I trust more for glowy skin than the Queen of Glow herself, Promising review: "I usually don't order skin products from celebrities, but I happened to come across a review from a makeup artist who raved about this product. I decided to give it a try. These products are great. Leaves your skin soft and hydrated with a nice glow. Not greasy looking or shiny. I have applied foundation after applying, and it does not affect the foundation. Great product." —christineGet the set from Amazon for $201. A glowy sunscreen because once you start using this, you won't be able to stop (trust me, I know from experience.) Every single time I wear this glowy SPF, I instantly get a confidence boost, and everyone compliments me. I am a Glowscreen stan, I use this almost every day, and the amount of compliments I receive while wearing this are unreal. Like I said above, once I have this on, I feel like a glowing goddess, and it makes me want to do a mini photoshoot. So I hope it inspires you as much as it inspires me. Promising review: "I have been on a search for a sunscreen that doesn't burn my eyes and skin, and I have finally found that with Supergoop. I don't wear much makeup on a daily basis, so this tinted sunscreen is what I use on the daily to give a tiny bit of glow. I actually went with the bronze because it is so sheer. I absolutely love the way it makes my skin look. I highly recommend this product." —LizDTGet it from Sephora for $22+ (available in three sizes and four shades). A bottle of The Ordinary's viral blood-red exfoliating peeling solution since you never really got over your vampire phase. For under $10, this does a lot! It can help you with blemishes, improve your skin texture, and keep your skin glowy. Promising review: "I was reading reviews on this and at first I had my doubts because most products are not what they present to be. However, I was actually quite surprised by the results of my skin being more glowy and radiant. I've used this for over a month now and I'm happy that I did!" —Lady_Em91Get a bottle on Amazon for $9.50+ (also available in pack of two). A bottle of the famous Sunday Riley C.E.O. Glow Vitamin C & Turmeric Face Oil because your skin deserves to shine as bright as the sun, moon and the stars. Think of this product as green juice for your complexion and let your skin drink it up the glow. Promising review: "This is hands-down the best face oil I've ever used. It makes my skin glowy, and foundation goes over it like a dream. The fragrance — I love how it smells, but I can see how some people might be put off by it. I will always buy this oil. I have to hide it from my boyfriend because he also likes to put it on his beard." —SarahGet it from Amazon for $40+ (available in two sizes). Or A Jojoba face oil to give your skin a post-facial glow without actually having to get a facial. If you're like me and practice your Vogue "get ready with me" on the daily, this would be a great addition to your self-care routine because it hydrates, absorbs oil, and it just feels so freaking luxurious. Promising review: "This stuff is liquid gold. Starting using it at the beginning of the winter, and my skin has stayed glowing through the cold. I put it on every morning and night after the Ogee serum, which I highly recommend as well. This is bottle number two for me. I can't get enough! I seriously have never gotten so many compliments on my skin. From someone with extremely sensitive skin, I couldn't be happier to have finally found my products. Ogee is a lifesaver!" —MarthaGet it from Amazon for $88. A face oil-serum hybrid that uses a combo of grapeseed, jojoba, evening primrose, and rosehip oils to keep your skin looking and feeling super dewy. Not only does it do all this, but it can also keep you looking brighter and glowier for up to 12 hours! Promising review: "If I could only have one skincare item to complement my face wash and moisturizer, it would be this. It makes my skin look AMAZING. It's a subtle and lasting glow and unsticky dewiness that is unmatched by other products. I get so many compliments on my skin when I'm wearing it. I like the way it smells, too. If you like a no-makeup, makeup look, start with Future Dew, dab on some Cloud Paint, tame the brows with Boy Brow, slick on a little Balm Dotcom, and head out the door. Effortless and beautiful." —Brett it from Glossier for $30. A blush and contour stick to add a little color to your beauty routine. It smells like vanilla, is creamy, locks in moisture, and makes you as glowy as a glazed donut. Promising review: "This is seriously so gorgeous. The blush leaves a beautiful, healthy glow without glitter or shimmer. The contour is easy to apply and blends very easily. It is more warm-toned than I prefer for contour, so it really seems more like a bronzer. I love the convenience of having a 2-in-1 product." —kendallgGet it from Ulta for $38 (available in six shades). A jar of resurfacing facial pads because it has all the things millennials need in it, except for enough money to buy a house. Lol. Reviewers love using these to help with dullness, dark spots, pores, and uneven skin texture. Besides doing all that ~magic~, these also help lift away dead skin cells, leaving you with glowy skin. Promising review: "I do not know the science or skincare reason behind this, but I love these pads. I bought after being 'influenced' by an influencer. I expected to try it once and not again. And here I am on my third round buying it because my skin has never glowed this much and my adult breakouts have stopped!" —Sierra77Get them from Amazon for $25+ (available in two sizes). An illuminating serum with SPF 30 to give you that glow-from-within look to trick people into thinking your skin is really that good.

Promising review: "I am a long-time fan of Coola products and this is no exception!!! This one in particular is SO beautiful and the perfect amount of 'glow.' Products I've used from other brands for a 'glow/dewy finish' don't have SPF, so this is absolutely perfect. It's great to wear alone, great with makeup, and fantastic for mature skin. And it smells nice. COOLA — please don't change or discontinue this one! It's perfection!" —Amazon CustomerGet it from Amazon for $42+ (available in two styles). A bottle of the viral Drunk Elephant bronzing drops since it's actually a serum with a wash of color, making it great for warmer months. This gives you a brilliant glow, and it also has a ton of antioxidants and soothing ingredients. Promising review: "Loveeeee this so much, it mixes with other products really well, and is so pretty and glowy. Normally, I mix it with my moisturizer, but if I want a fuller look, I mix it with my skin tint to give it a more tan look, and it mixes soooo well. The product is a little small for the price, but I think that it's a good enough product to almost justify that. I've bought this product three different times, and once you think you've run out, just leave it upside down, and there will be a lot more to use. I lasted another three weeks on it once I removed the little plastic thing on top of it." —zzzzoriiGet it from Sephora for $39. A CeraVe under-eye cream to help brighten your undereye after staying up past your bedtime watching Love Island USA. Using a combo of peptides, hyaluronic acid, niacinamide, and caffeine, this will help keep you looking well-rested despite screaming at your TV.

Read more about the skincare benefits of caffeine at the Cleveland review: "I have used high-end eye cream for years, but not anymore! This eye cream hydrates better, decreases my fine lines, and has lightened my dark circles. After five hours of sleep, I don't look haggard. This is amazing eye cream!! I have given my other creams away — yes, it's that good." —teachmomGet a bottle from Target for $18.99. A Medik8 toner for giving you a natural and healthy glow. It uses PHA to exfoliate and hydrate your skin, which will make you feel nice and refreshed after a long day. Promising review: "I was looking for a toner that helped my skin recover from the stronger active ingredients I use at night. I have sensitive combination/dry skin, and this toner did not irritate or cause dryness. My skin didn't feel tight, and it didn't burn after use. This toner is the perfect mix of gentle but effective. My skin definitely glows after using this. I would recommend to anyone with sensitive, acne-prone skin that is looking for something non-drying." —BrittGet it from Dermstore for $35.

A glowy balm that'll keep your cheeks glowing all year long. Dewy and shimmery, I already know you're going to need this in every shade (because, same). Promising review: "I purchased two of these in two different colors and have to say I love them. This is such an easy way to brighten up your face without having to wear full face makeup. This product is beautiful when tapped on lightly on the cheeks with your finger tips, a sponge, or brush and makes a beautiful blushed cheek that looks natural and like it's coming from within. Also works great tapped onto the upper eyelids for a hint of color that brings out your eye color, very beautiful and I would recommend." —Donna KesslerGet it from Amazon for $12.99 (available in five colors). A bottle of liquid highlighter drops so you can mix it with any and every step of your routine. You can mix this in your moisturizer, cream blush, or foundation for a little extra glow, or just apply some directly on your cheeks; either way, everyone is going to be complimenting you nonstop. I sometimes like to mix this in with my foundation, but for the most part, I love applying this on high points of my face for a blinding glow. Every time I wear this product, everyone asks about it, and it makes me feel so pretty. Promising review: "This is the perfect addition to my makeup routine. Gives you just a hint of a dewy glow. Received so many compliments since I started using it. It's a staple now. I also have sensitive skin and no irritation at all.

Promising review: "This is literally like a glass of water for dry skin — my absolute favorite time and time again! I've used this for about five years now and still have yet to find anything better. It leaves your skin dewy and glowy without looking greasy. I typically have acne-prone, super-sensitive skin, however, this is one of the few moisturizers that doesn't irritate me or break me out" —JordanGet it from Amazon for $72.

My face felt and looked clean, and it didn't irritate my sensitive review: "When I checked when I last purchased this product, I could not believe that one bottle lasted me nearly TWO YEARS. You really don't need a lot to cover your face. And it does an amazing job of cleansing my face. It felt like velvet and silk on my face and had an absolutely lovely, light smell. It makes my skin super fresh, and I wake up with a clear and bright face! I've compared this to other cleaners I've used in the past, and my skin just glows with this! (Not glow as in shiny, but vibrant, bright, and smooth.) And what makes it all the better is how long the bottle lasts you at such a great price! The perfect cleanser for easy skincare!" —ChristinaGet it from Amazon $12+ (available in two sizes).

The mist is very fine and even, with a faint but pleasant scent that fades quickly. I have sensitive, acne-prone skin, and I've used this daily for about a month without any breakouts or irritation." —Taylor"I'm obsessed with this product! It gives my skin that gorgeous glass-skin glow and is packed with clean ingredients. So easy to use — just spritz it on and let it work its magic, no rinsing needed.

I wore it to brunch and THREE people asked what I was wearing (and one of them was my ex 👀). Blends like a dream, doesn't feel heavy, and works alone or under foundation if you're feeling extra. The shade match? Shockingly good for a drugstore find. E.l.f. really said luxury on a budget and I'm HERE FOR IT. 💅 Final thoughts: add to cart. No, seriously. Add. To. Cart." —Natalie DreselGet it from Amazon for $8.99+ (available in 15 shades). A lightweight color-correcting foundation from It Cosmetics that'll give you the glowy base of your dreams. Guess what?

Since having a baby, I've had to shorten the time it takes me to get ready in the morning, so most days I don't wear makeup, or I want something lightweight so it doesn't settle in my fine lines. This was the answer. It's lightweight, provides a beautiful glow, moisturizes, and has a pleasant scent. I'm able to put this on quickly and look so much more put together." —Jessica C"Love this medium coverage CC cream. It is sheer and luminous with sunscreen and a little glow to it when you put it on.
