SkinCeuticals – Soothing Cleanser
"Soothing Cleanser by SkinCeuticals is one of my favorite cleansers of all time because it's so gentle, it can literally be used right after an intense professional procedure such as a chemical peel, microneedling, and even lasers." – Simone Sydel
This gentle cleansing foam is formulated with soothing ingredients such as cucumber extract and repairing amino acids suitable for even the most sensitive skin, including skin dealing with inflammatory conditions such as rosacea, acne, and dermatitis.
The soap-free cleanser is even safe for skin undergoing professional procedures such as chemical peels, IPL, lasers, microneedling, and even injectables as it doesn’t contain any potential irritants that could harm the skin while in its most vulnerable state.
Peach & Lily – Glass Skin Refining Serum
"This serum is expensive, but it's worth every penny. I love how it absorbs into my skin quickly and is a quick fix for every skincare problem in the book." – Meghan Dillon
The Peach & Lily Glass Refining Serum is a beautiful product that belongs in the skincare routine of anyone who wants a boost of radiance after the very first application.
The serum contains natural and clinically proven ingredients that instantly deliver visible results. There are humectants like hyaluronic acid that help bring moisture into the skin, niacinamide that helps brighten the complexion and strengthen the skin barrier, and peach extract which is packed with vitamins, antioxidants, and essential fatty acids to keep the skin plump and youthful, as well as a peptide complex that helps boost collagen production and visibly improve fine lines and wrinkles.
Hero Cosmetics – Mighty Patch
"These take out a zit or a pimple in a jiffy, and ever since I brought them home even my husband is obsessed." – Gwen Farrell
The Hero Cosmetics Mighty Patches are small, invisible patches that you can stick onto a pimple in the case of an emergency and it will disappear within a few hours.
Each pimple patch is made from a medical-grade hydrocolloid, which is a gel that absorbs pus (the white head) from a pimple.
But besides making pimples disappear, these patches also work as a protective barrier to not only prevent you from picking at your pimples but to protect the microscopic wound that occurs when the head of a pimple is open. This will prevent bacteria from entering the pore and potentially causing more damage.
Versed – Dew Point Moisturizing Gel Cream
"This moisturizer is light and absorbs well without causing greasiness or excess oiliness. It's also easy to spread a thin layer due to its gel consistency, and it’s paraben-free." – Paula Gallagher, Senior Editor
The Versed Skin Dew Point Moisturizing Gel Cream is an affordable, no-fuss, straight-to-the-point moisturizer that does exactly what it says it does – it makes your skin look dewy.
It’s packed with hydrating and nourishing ingredients as well as some soothing and anti-inflammatory ingredients that might be especially beneficial for acne-prone skin.
The moisturizer has a nice, lightweight texture that absorbs into the skin easily and keeps the moisture where it should be – deep in the skin.
NYX – Studio Perfect Primer
"I love NYX's Studio Perfect primer. I don't wear it every day, but for events or when I want my skin to look extra flawless, it's perfect." – Erica Jimenez, Managing Editor
The NYX Studio Perfect Primer is a lightweight color-correcting fluid with a matte finish that helps soften lines, blur imperfections, correct uneven skin tone, and smooth out skin texture.
The formula is available in several shades, each focused on targeting different imperfections, and is also cruelty-free and suitable for vegans.
L'Oréal – Voluminous Original Mascara
"I've tried almost every expensive mascara, but it's not worth it to spend $30 for Dior when, honestly, this is better." – Brittany Martinez, Founder and Editor-In-Chief
L'Oréal's Voluminous Original Mascara is uniquely formulated to build lashes five times their natural thickness for a full and dramatic look.
The thin and precise yet bold brush separates and builds every lash individually without making them clump up and appear stuck together while also keeping the eye area smudge-free throughout the entire day.
But besides its beautiful effect, the Voluminous Mascara also contains panthenol and ceramides that help protect, condition, and moisturize the lashes.
L'Oréal – Infallible Powder Foundation
"This foundation went viral on TikTok, and all the hype is true! It's full coverage with a super pretty finish, giving you that airbrush look." – Juliana Stewart
The L'Oréal Infallible Powder Foundation is an excellent product for dry and combination skin types who are looking for something in-between because they don't enjoy the suffocating feeling of a full-coverage foundation while a BB cream doesn't do it for them.
Bobbi Brown – Shimmer Brick
"I love the Bobbi Brown Shimmer Brick in Pink Quartz because it acts as a blush, bronzer, and highlighter all in one." – Nicole Andre
Bobbi Brown Shimmer Brick is an iconic highlighter that instantly delivers soft-focus highlights with a flattering combination of pale, golden, and rosy pinks.
The highlighting compact features five shades infused with intense pigments that reflect radiance and light, acting as three products in one once applied to the skin.
Anastasia Beverly Hills – Dipbrow Pomade
"I love this eyebrow pomade, it looks so natural, doesn’t come off all day, and a pot of this lasts forever!" – Julie Mastrine
The Dipbrow Pomade by Anastasia Beverly Hills is definitely a must in every makeup artist's kit because it's so convenient to use and mix with other brow products, stays put all day long, is affordable, and lasts for an insanely long time.
Besides that, it comes in an incredible number of shades, 11 to be exact, which is something no other makeup brand can boast of, especially when it comes to brow products.
GrandeLASH – Lash Enhancing Serum
"I used to get lash extensions before lockdown and they always hurt my lashes. Used this for a few months and have never looked back." – Simone Hanna
GrandeLASH's Lash Enhancing Serum is an award-winning beauty product that helps the lashes grow, strengthen, and thicken.
Lash Enhancing Serum contains a proprietary blend of vitamins, peptides, hydrators, and amino acids to promote not only the appearance of naturally longer and hydrated lashes but actual growth and strengthening after only three months of consistent usage.
