Promising review: "My absolute favourite moisturizer!! This is a product I will always go back to, and it’s perfect for anyone with dry skin or anyone who struggles with eczema. Cannot recommend enough!!" —issyis

Price: $20+ (available in three sizes or as a refill)

Promising review: "The best lip balm! Even works on my destroyed lips after a ski weekend where they were completely wind- and cold chapped." —salator

Price: $16 (available in 12 scents/finishes)

Promising review: "A sparkle lover's dream!!! I’ve tried a few different shades of this product and loved all of them. The foils and sparkles are some of the most impactful in my collection, and I can use them over anything or on their own and get a look that lasts all night!" —planetclaire921

Price: $22 (available in tons of shades and high shine, matte, and metallic finishes)

Promising review: "Seriously SO good! I use this almost every day — it holds my hair so well! Perfect for flyaways and my buns — love!" —BeautyGal95

Promising review: "Pleasantly surprised! I am incredibly acne-prone, and vitamin C serums can sometimes exacerbate acne issues, so I was apprehensive about trying this. I’ve been using it for about two weeks now and have not had any issues with my acne. I find it decently hydrating as well. I’ve noticed subtle changes with my skin tone and good change in overall brightness/evening of skin texture/tone." —RJune

Promising review: "This product is so amazing for my hair. I have super thick curly hair and it relieves all of my frizz and also makes my curls look so amazing without the hassle of me having to do barely anything!!!!" —Shayna44

It's a stain, so it really stays put but doesn't feel drying at all, especially over a thin layer of balm. It's also delish (and equally staying) on the cheeks, so if you're down to clown with a bold cheek look, this product is absolutely for you! I like to build it up with two layers on the lips and sheer it out on the face. 

Promising review: "Love using this on my cheeks and occasionally on my lips. Every time I wear this, I get so many compliments on how I look sun-kissed. A must-have for a no-makeup makeup look." —mrshgreg

Price: $28+ (available in eight shades and a value size in the original "Benetint" shade)

Promising review: "After using this product for about three weeks now, I’ve seen serious improvement. The appearance of smaller pores, barely any new acne, and improvement in dark spots have made this product my go-to toner, and I will be repurchasing." —Evelyn001

Price: $15+ (available in three sizes, including in a pre-soaked pad style)

Promising review: "I didn’t think Summer Fridays would live up to the hype, but it 100% does! Best lip balm I think I’ve ever used. The scent is delicious, leaves my lips feeling soooo hydrated, and I don’t have to reapply every five minutes to keep them feeling that way!" —yourshelbae

Promising review: "This hair styling cream brings out the natural curl of my hair and helps the curl stay! It makes my hair feel soft, not 'crunchy' like other products, and makes my hair more manageable." —kateybee

Promising review: "I love this blush. I usually go for powder blush, and I was scared to try liquid blush, but I’m amazed with the results. Easy to blend and has a good amount of pigment. Would highly recommend." —gursimran13

Price: $16+ (available in two sizes, two finishes, and 15 shades)

Promising review: "I rarely write reviews on products, but I’m so happy with this one! Awesome to find a formula that combines retinol and txa. After using this product for approximately one month, I’ve seen a noticeable difference in my acne scars, texture, and breakouts. My skin is brighter and smoother. I recommend using a vitamin C serum in the morning for maximal results." —julesghoulss

Promising reviews: "I have wavy hair, and whenever I air dry it or sleep with my hair wet, I wake up with SUPER frizzy hair. Used this and the next morning my waves were not frizzy at all, and looked perfect!" —myajmm

"Love this stuff — especially the fact that it only has to be in your hair for one minute. Great for when you want to do a hair mask or treatment but don't have 10 to 15 minutes to wait. And of course it smells great!" —alirose2468

Promising review: "This gives me all the '90s vibes. My go-to blush and lip color for my busy mom life. So easy to blend on the cheeks and very hydrating to my lips. If you have no time but want a full face, this is the product." —modestmama333

Price: $36 (available in 12 shades and two finishes)

Promising review: "This is my skin but better! I’m an oily/combo girl, and I feel like this makes my skin look dewy but not oily. I wear this on a 10-hour shift as a server, where I’m sweating all day, and it still looks amazing by the time I get home. Definitely would recommend!" —ellaine082

Promising review: "I am very pale and live in the Caribbean, and this sunscreen is a must!! It protects me, does not leave a white cast, as it is clear, and it helps me get a little bit of a tan, not burnt." —CristinaP23

Promising review: "This is my go-to lipstick whenever I want a pretty sheer dark cherry lip. I can describe it as biting into a cherry and having residue on your lips. I love it; it’s my third time buying it." —jacquelineb25

Promising review: "I never write reviews but had to for this amazing scalp massager. I have been struggling with a dry scalp recently, and this helps so much. Best one I’ve tried by far." —elizabethadele

I used a Sephora sample of this as my travel cleanser until it was out, and I was genuinely sad when it was gone! It smells super fresh and feels very no-fuss. I totally get why this is a crowd pleaser.

Promising reviews: "As an esthetician, I believe this is the best cleanser I’ve tried for my skin. I’ve struggled with adult acne and dryness, and this cleanser is so gentle but works so well. I’ve gotten friends to try it, and it’s changed our skin." —Callibay

Price: $16+ (available in two sizes and a refill pouch)

Promising review: "I use this every day as my foundation and concealer. It covers my redness and discoloration with just one layer. My coworkers tell me all the time that my skin looks great. I give all the credit to this brand!" —Moniquerxch

Promising review: "This gives the perfect 'I got some sun today' look. I mix it with my moisturizer and blend it over all the areas of the face the sun hits. Love it. I also mix it in with foundation when I have a tan." —nikkidip91

Promising review: "I absolutely LOVE this foam. It makes my hair soooo soft and gives the most beautiful curl definition to my 4b hair. The foam doesn’t give the strongest hold (I get about 3–4 days from my wash and go with this alone), but it pairs beautifully with their gel. Also, I’m never able to refresh my curls, but with this, I can. I’m on day six today and am still wearing my hair down after refreshing yesterday. I absolutely LOVE this foam." —Meamurp

Promising review: "Love this product so much that even when I don’t need to take off makeup, I like using this before a cleanser, and it feels really hydrating. Repurchased many times, fresh light scent, a no-brainer purchase!" —jameylisa

Price: $18+ (available in three sizes and a scented or fragrance-free version).

Promising review: "I have never gotten as many compliments on my lip until I bought this in 'wherever walnut.' I pair it with the vanilla Summer Fridays lip gloss, and it’s the perfect combo!" —klc14

Price: $26 (available in 21 shades and two finishes)

The oil is paraben-free, cruelty-free, fragrance-free, and vegan.

Here's what BuzzFeed Shopping editor Rebecca O'Connell had to say: "This is the stuff of dreams, people! I put it on my face at night after a serum and before my night cream, and wake up with bouncy, bright skin. The first time I used it, I had overnight results. I am constantly yelling about this product to everyone who will listen; I even convinced my dermatologist to try it."

Promising review: "This is my new holy grail. I apply this to my hair after showering, then blow-dry, and it seals my dead ends and makes my hair bouncy, shiny, and soft. I can also use this on dry hair for a slick back or when my hair is feeling dry. This is an absolute must for girlies with dry hair." —Kady17

Promising review: "This is my favorite eyeshadow I’ve ever used. It’s sooooo easy to use. It isn’t too creamy where it takes forever to dry or spreads weirdly, and somehow it’s also not too dry and doesn’t dry down so fast that you have to move super quickly. It’s just perfectly spreadable and blendable! It’s also a great neutral cool brown (Studio), so it would work for just about anyone’s coloring. It’s also not too dark, so works as a great base color or can be worn alone." —theresa013

Price: $26 (available in 12 shades and two finishes)

Promising review: "I don’t think I’ll buy a different mascara ever again. It doesn’t smudge or flake, and it comes off so easily with water, you never have to scrub your eyes." —emilyxscott

Price: $15+ (available in two sizes and two shades)

Promising review: "LOVE this contour! The pigment is amazing and blends so nicely on my skin. It plays well with my other makeup and gives me a nice contour. Both the crème and the powder are AMAZING!" —CaseyMarie123

Promising review: "I love this mask. I use it on all my travels and every couple of days mixed in with my night routine, especially if my skin seems tired. Have gone through two and buying another." —NikkiB912

Promising review: "Absolutely delicious! This shower oil lingers on the skin wayyy after you’ve finished showering! It smells so delicious and leaves your body feeling so soft and smooth!" —GlitterBarbie12

Promising review: "After using this product over the past few weeks, I am absolutely in love! The scent is warm, sweet, and tropical — like a mix of pistachio, salted caramel, and vanilla. It lasts for hours on both my hair and skin, and I always get compliments when I wear it. The mist feels light, non-sticky, and perfect for everyday use. Plus, the bottle is a generous size and will last a long time. If you’re looking for a fragrance that makes you feel like you’re on a Brazilian beach, this is it! Highly recommend." —laiby
