Don't sleep on niacinamide serums if you struggle with acne or oil-prone skin. The hero ingredient can help reduce the appearance of pores, inflammation, and sebum production. Kaia Gerber swears by this serum and says it "saved her skin" during stressful times like fashion month in an interview with Vogue.
Out of all of the face serums in existence (and there are a ton), we gave this one top mark in our roundup of the best of the best. It comes pro-approved by board-certified dermatologist Dr. Tiffany Libby, too. “This dermatologist favorite is formulated with a potent blend of growth factors to help smooth and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles,” she says. Score it now while it's the most affordable it's ever been.
I will never stop praising this as one of the best sunscreens—its formula is unmatched by any other one I've tried. It applies flawlessly under makeup and feels more like a creamy moisturizer than a typical sunscreen.
Summer may end soon, but I'm not willing to part with my tan just yet. Instead, I'm relying on this cult-favorite self-tanner for a glow year-round. Its tinted foam formula is easy to apply and is never streaky.
This microcurrent device may be small, but it has mighty sculpting powers for its size. It sends microcurrents to the deep layers of your skin and facial muscles to lift your face instantly, reducing fine lines and wrinkles. With consistent use, you'll notice a more contoured look.
With this moisturizer in your routine, you'll be one step closer to achieving the French girl beauty look. Makeup artists, editors, and even celebrities swear by it for a hydrating, dewy finish.

As far as at-home chemical peels go, these work like a charm to tackle many skin concerns, from dark spots and texture to wrinkles and large pores. Its two-step process couldn't be easier to follow.
"This is my favorite cleansing balm," writes Fashion E-Commerce Editor Julia Marzovilla. "It's one of the few I've tried that gets rid of every stitch of makeup on my face in one pass. It's intensely nourishing and doesn't break me out if I don't double-cleanse. The texture is like half-melted butter, breaking down into the softest oil. Some balms can feel gritty on the skin, but this one is the opposite."
Few beauty products leave me impressed after just one use—but this serum is one of them. After applying it before bed one night, I woke up to visibly smoother and brighter skin. I was so shocked that I immediately bought a full-sized tube that day. It's all thanks to its formula, which includes exfoliating AHAs and lactic acid. They work to clear dead skin cells and pore-clogging debris.
This serum is potent with a whopping 20 percent L-ascorbic acid, a vitamin C derivative. If you struggle with pesky dark spots or hyperpigmentation, this serum will brighten up your skin in a few short weeks. It also provides an extra dose of moisture and protection against UV damage.
La Roche-Posay has long been a fan-favorite for affordable, effective skincare. This moisturizer with SPF is one of the brand's best-sellers for its multi-benefit formula. It heals your skin barrier, hydrates, and protects against the sun.
Maybe you haven't found a chemical exfoliant that suits your skin type, or you're dipping your toes into different exfoliating products. In either case, this product may be up your alley. This powder-to-paste formula gently removes dead skin cells and debris to reveal brighter, clearer skin.
It may seem like winter is still far away, but colder months will be upon us soon enough.

To all of my double-cleansing fans out there, you're going to want to add this cleanser into the mix. This top-rated formula is a pro at removing makeup and gunk from your pores, while deep hydrating your skin. Don't be afraid to use this if you have oily skin, either—it doesn't leave any added greasiness or residue.
Every time I travel, I get stressed just thinking about what toiletries I can or cannot bring. This kit takes that stress away with everything I could need while away in TSA-approved sizes. This includes everything from moisturizer and cleanser to toothpaste and dry shampoo, a lot of which are full-size and from favorite brands like Murad, Sunday Riley, Supergoop, and more.
This is my holy grail, ride-or-die, must-have product for removing blackheads, which I have a lot of. A swipe of this formula, which contains pore-clearing salicylic acid, along my nose and chin a few times a week keeps those pesky blackheads at bay while also minimizing the look of my pores.
For an eye cream that tackles it all, turn to this five-star favorite. It works wonders for intensively hydrating dry under eyes, and reviewers say it's one of the few creams they've tried that actually makes a difference in their fine lines and wrinkles.
Emily Ratajkowski is a fan of this TikTok-viral snail mucin essence, so naturally, I'm dying to try it. The hero ingredient is, you guessed it, snail secretion, which repairs the skin while hydrating, improving skin tone and boosting elasticity.

There's a reason we named Dphue's hair gloss as the best of the best. It leaves your hair with a glass-like shine in as little as three minutes. I love using it between salon visits for a quick boost to my dye job.
Out of all of the dry texturizing sprays out there, we ranked Oribe's as number one for its volume-boosting finish and versatility. "If I hold the bottle far away from my head, the finish is super subtle and helps me get a few extra days out of my look," says Samantha Holender, Marie Claire's beauty editor. "But if I hold it close? The volume it delivers is incredible." Meghan Markle is a fan, too, and previously told Birchbox during her days on the Suits set, she would use it when her hair felt weighted.
This eyelash growth serum from Grande Cosmetics single-handedly gave me the spidery-long lashes of my dreams. You apply it just like an eyeliner over the top of your lash line at night, so it's as easy as can be. I will say consistency is critical, but the habit pays off.
This is one of the best deep conditioners for bleached hair because it works quickly and is so hydrating. Specifically formulated to tackle damage caused by chemicals, this conditioner is packed with nourishing ingredients like algae extract, B vitamins, and rosehip oil. It'll immediately make your hair healthier, smoother, and shinier; the benefits only improve with continued use.
Switching over to a silk pillowcase was one of the best upgrades to my beauty routine. The silky texture causes less friction on my skin than traditional cotton pillowcases, which results in fewer wrinkles. One of the many benefits of silk pillowcases is having smoother, less frizzy hair after you spend a few nights using them.
This hair oil is my secret weapon for shiny, smooth hair. It has a super lightweight feel and heals and nourishes my hair from the inside out, all while protecting against harsh environmental stressors. I love it even more for its fresh, fruity scent.
Oribe's Gold Lust line is the golden standard for shampoo and conditioner. With the brand's signature restorative complex, hair is shinier, healthier, and stronger after every wash. Considering a full-size shampoo and conditioner typically cost over $50 each, I'd say this is a steal.
Upgrading your blow dryer will make a world of difference in your beauty routine. This powerful one is similar to what stylists use in salons with a lightweight design and quick-drying airflow. Even better is its ion functionality, which ensures smoother, static-free hair.
After a full week of using dry shampoos, mousses, and hairsprays, I like to give my hair and scalp a deep clean with this shampoo from Briogeo. It gently exfoliates any flakes and product build-up and leaves an invigorating minty fresh feel.
A hair serum that fits frizz, protects against heat, blocks pollution, and nourishes sounds too good to be true, but it isn't. This Olaplex find does it all while imparting a mirror-like shine to your strands.
Growing out your hair isn't so cut and dry, but this kit simplifies the process. It includes a shampoo and conditioner plus a foam for after-washing that contains minoxidil, the only FDA-approved ingredient for regrowing hair. After three months, your hair will be noticeably thicker and fuller.
Once you convert to a cordless curling iron like this one, you'll never want to go back. You'll never have to worry about getting tangled up in cords again or, even better, running out of battery power in the middle of a styling session. This set comes with interchangeable batteries and a chic matching charging base you can take anywhere.

This is one of those products that nearly everyone has a good experience with. It's one of my favorite makeup primers on the market for smoothing and blurring my skin. It works even better as a sunscreen. "It goes on smoothly and feels incredibly lightweight without any of the annoyances of most sunscreens," says Marie Claire's contributing editor, Katherine J. Igoe. "I can put it on anytime, including over my makeup."
This is one TikTok-viral beauty product that deserves all of the hype. Think of it as a plumping lip gloss that's never sticky and leaves your lips moisturized and juicy. It doesn't come with a painful stinging sensation like other lip plumpers do, either.
Reapplying sunscreen is a nonnegotiable, especially in the summer months. This is the powder I use for my midday reapplication, and it works flawlessly with my makeup. It also leaves a matte finish that my oily skin appreciates. I'll even apply this powder to my scalp because there's nothing worse than a flaky sunburn on your head.
This mascara has been reviewed nearly 8,000 times on Dermstore, so you can bet it's a hit among shoppers. Reviews say it doesn't smudge throughout the day and it makes lashes appear lush and full without clumps. It also contains nourishing ingredients to promote healthier lashes—a win-win.
This product gives me a red-carpet-ready face with minimal effort. I sweep it right on my cheekbones and along my hairline for a sculpted look. It's cool-toned, blendable, long-wearing, and never patchy.
This tinted sunscreen will be the backbone of your "no makeup" makeup looks. It evens out your skin tone and leaves behind the prettiest glow without a white cast. And if you do want to layer on more makeup, it works as a smoothing primer, too.
Estée Lauder's Double Wear foundation has long been a fan-favorite and it's a great foundation for acne-prone skin. Its oil-free formula stays put all day, even in intense heat and humidity. Despite having medium-to-full coverage, you can count on this foundation to feel lightweight on your skin.
If you've ever wanted to try your hand at tubing mascaras, now's the time to do so with this best-selling pick from Tarte on sale. Essentially, this mascara works by encasing your lashes in little "tubes" that add major length and volume. The best part is that they come off with just warm water—no harsh scrubbing or makeup remover required.
There's nothing better than a multitasking beauty product. This brow gel fills and shapes your brows while setting your style for up to 12 hours. Its formula, full of good-for-you ingredients like castor oil and vitamin E, also promotes thicker, more tinted brows over time.
I despise dry, patchy lipsticks and instead, turn to tinted lip balms like this whenever I need a wash of color. Every one of the seven shades offered feels wearable without being too obnoxious, plus the extra sun protection is always a welcome bonus.
In my humble opinion, Tarte makes some of the best eyeshadow palettes out there, especially in the neutrals category. With a mix of tones and finishes, this nude eyeshadow palette can create a range of looks, whether it's a classic smbrokey eye or a classic daytime shimmer.
We're sadly in the dog days of summer, but that doesn't mean you have to give up your glow. These buildable bronzing drops can be used on their own or mixed in with your favorite foundation to give yourself a sunkissed radiance year-round.
