27 Beauty Products From Amazon That Reviewers Say Helped Them Get Ready Faster

One side is the curved wing stamp, and the other is a regular fine tip liner for defining the rest of the eye. It comes in a pack of two, one for each eye.

Promising reviews: "Got this before a trip I took a few days ago. I have never been able to do wing eyeliner properly so I was excited to try this. It's very pigmented and goes on beautifully! I've tried other liquid eyeliners before, and they were so watery and not close to the dark black I wanted at all, but this product was great. I did my makeup and put this eyeliner on at 9 a.m., traveled two hours, walked around a city for about three hours, and it was warm, so I was sweating, and then went to an NBA game. After all that time (about 16 hours!), the eyeliner was just as perfect as I had put it on! I love this product and can't wait to use it more often!" —Elizabeth

"Applies super fast and doesn’t smudge. It’ll be there in the morning if you don’t take it off, and I love that. It’s so easy to have razor-sharp wings. The super fine point on the end that isn’t the stamp is actually easier to use than my old liquid liners. I guess this is my go-to now." —SpencerMiller

The Flick Stick comes from New Zealand-based brand and small biz Lovoir Beauty.

Price: $14.98+ (available in three sizes and a combo pack)

3. A Maybelline Age Rewind Concealer that comes with a super handy sponge applicator for blurring fine lines and concealing puffiness and dark circles. This has been my go-to concealer since I was 13, and I don't see that changing any time soon! Just do yourself a favor and add it to your cart, people.

Kayla Suazo / BuzzFeed, www.amazon.com

Promising reviews: "Love this concealer! I keep one in my purse for on the go and I keep one in my cosmetic bag at home. Such a great value too." —DannonV

"I hope they never discontinue this concealer. It’s genius, and I don’t know what I would do without it! It’s fast to apply and super easy, because the little sponge head just makes each application a no-brainer-easy process. You just twist it ’til you see some product show up on the sponge, and then dab it where you want it to go. Applies concealer to the eye area without pulling or effort. You don’t need your fingers to finish the job; the sponge does it for you. Plus, it’s easy to remove at the end of the day. Seriously, this concealer includes an application sponge on the tip — it’s perfect!" —LikestoGarden

Price: $8.98+ (available in 21 shades)

4. A mini portable flat iron so you can have your hair looking its absolute best, even when you're jet-setting around the world. (Or you just need to touch up your 'do while you're at the office.)

Promising reviews: "This little tiny flat iron is a BEAST! I own one of the best ones on the market, and this little tiny thing is just as good! I have extremely thick, naturally curly hair. I own an expensive titanium flat iron, and this little Lovani flat iron works just as fast! And it doesn't leave my hair static like the other one does sometimes! It gives volume and heats up super fast! Seriously, I will be taking this with me when I travel! It's going to stay in my car for touch-ups on the go! It's super sleek and comes with an awesome pouch to carry it in! You can straighten your hair, put it away, throw it in your purse, and go! I seriously recommend this if you're looking for a travel flat iron or just an everyday iron! This is just as amazing for a small budget!" —Jodie Edwards

"I don’t like spending more than 10 minutes on my hair, but I love looking fabulous!! This tool is perfect. The heat, the speed, and the tiny size are wonderful. No burns, fast results. Just great!" —goo

Price: $15.19+ (available in three colors)

5. An illuminating moisturizer if you want a lightweight alternative to traditional foundation that'll have you looking like the glowing ROYALTY that you are in seconds.

Promising reviews: "Oh I love this. I have used it over and under foundation but my sister told me she used hers alone in the summer for a sheer look and now I carry my tube with me in my purse bc it is so versatile and gives me a nice glow with just a bit of color." —TheGreatGatsby

"This is the best thing I’ve seen in a long time. I absolutely love it. It’s so light and you can apply it so fast, and the glow it gives to my face is just perfect for me. I really would recommend it." —Jennifer Moore

Price: $13.98 (available in five shades)

6. The Brow Glue, Nyx's ~extreme hold~ eyebrow gel because your brows are the curtains to the windows of your soul and you want them looking their best 24/7.

Here's what BuzzFeeder Chelsea Stuarthas to say about it: "I wear very little makeup — especially on vacation — but there's something about doing my brows that makes me feel more put together. I recently went on a 12-day trip to the UK, Croatia, Montenegro, and Spain, and traveled carry-on only so I really had to pare down my toiletries — especially as the airports I traveled through made us condense all of our liquids into a single quart-size bag. This stuff is TINY but does the absolute most! I wouldn't say I have particularly thin or thick brows, but this really zhuzhed them up with next to no effort."

Promising reviews: "The Boy Brow from Glossier was my ride-or-die eyebrow product for years, but the tubes are so small, and they raised the price, so I could no longer justify it. This brow glue is the closest thing I’ve found to it and it’s half the price! Will definitely repurchase." —Alex

"I've tried so many products and NONE could hold down eyebrow hairs that were integral to my brow shape. This glue holds them in place, does not let them pop up three hours later, and has no white peeling after a few hours of wear. It was **so fast** to fill in my missing hairs with all the other hairs controlled by the glue. Will not be without!" —RRivera

Price: $9.97 (available in five shades, including clear)

7. An epic detangling brush that works especially well for curly hair, gently removing tangles from your luscious mane without tugging on your scalp for minutes at a time.

Promising reviews: "THIS BRUSH IS MAGICAL! No matter how tangled my hair is, this brush will get through it in no more than two strokes! Highly recommend!" —Jane EM Carter

"I love this brush! My goddaughter and I both have long hair. It's always been so hard to brush our hair. Now, it's not with this brush! It's easy on both wet and dry hair. Also I see less hair on the brush compared to when I use my other brushes. This is a must-try, must-keep-forever brush! Give it a try. What do you have to lose? Your hair will thank you for it." —SugarANDSpice

"With this brush, it literally takes me minutes to get out knots, even really BAD KNOTS! My 13-year-old daughter...one very lazy summer went SEVERAL days with her very curly hair up in a bun. She ended up with several serious, almost dreadlocks in the back of her head. Brushing her hair in the past with a normal vent brush or paddle brush would have caused nothing but long, drawn-out crying fits and fighting because she also has psoriasis on her scalp... so it HURTS! But with this brush, it was so fast, and it didn't hurt her! AMEN!" —dreamydoodles

Price: $9.99 (available in 10 colors and prints)

8. A TikTok-famous anti-frizz treatment that's like a mini keratin treatment for your mane. It blocks out humidity for up to four washes! Smell ya later, summertime frizz! And it works super quickly, too!

Promising reviews: "I never write reviews, but after using this, I had to come back and give a review. I saw this as an Instagram ad and was skeptical. Living in a very humid state, I was at the point of giving up trying to have nice hair during the summer. I saw this ad a couple of times, then finally bought it. All I can say is that I wish I didn’t wait so long! I have blonde, very thin, fine hair, and always struggle with products weighing down my hair/making it look dirty; this doesn’t do that at all. My hair blow-dries beautifully, it gives a nice shine, and leaves my hair so soft. It’s a world of difference between using it and not. On extremely bad days, I do still get some frizz, but nothing like before. Worth every penny!!" —Michelle

"If you want to maintain your silk press in between washes, this is a great product and works FAST! I spray it on before blow drying and my hair straightens back out. It's helpful to use a hair dryer with a brush." —Felicia Ross

Price: $28

9. A pack of cult-favorite Clean Skin Club Clean Towels, because drying off your face with your bath towel after washing your face just encourages breakouts due to bacteria buildup on the mildewy towel. With this, you get a fresh experience every time!

Clean Skin Club is a US-based small business specializing in hygienic, vegan, and cruelty-free skincare products.

Promising reviews: "I absolutely love these. I saw these on TikTok and bought them. I will be buying more. They are great for my face. Really soft and VERY durable and strong, even when wet. You can wash your face [with it] or just dry your face, either way, it’s the best option." —Sahara

"I love these! I tried one when drying my face at a friend's house and fell in love with how quickly, easily, and cleanly it was to dry my face! I bought a pack for myself the next day. And this pack lasts me forever. You only need one, and your face and neck will be dry because it’s so absorbent, and each one is so big. They have them folded in there nicely and neatly, great design and great value for your money. I will never go back to using regular towels I feel like they harbor so much bacteria. These towels on the other hand protect your skin from bacteria." —Gaby

Price: $17.95

10. A microfiber towel that cuts your hair drying time in half without having to use any heat! I've been using these for years, and I am always shocked by how quickly they work! And the material doesn't snag on your hair or cause breakage!

Promising reviews: "Love love love these! I have long hair (almost to my waist) and I hate to have my hair dripping water right after a shower, but I do not want to use my hair dryer at all times, so I just keep this wrapped up for a while, and it does wonders! My hair is almost fully dry when I take this off (15–30 minutes max), and I feel relieved that I don’t have to carry the weight of a full towel around! The button is nicely placed, and it’s easy to just wrap it around your head. I have one and my stepdaughter has the other, and we both love it!!" —Ana Davis

"I've always just used a small towel for my hair. I've honestly had the same one for almost 30 years! I noticed a few days ago just how thin that poor thing has gotten and thought it might be time to get a new one. I couldn't believe how fast my hair dried using this wrap! My hair is fine and thin, so it shouldn't take much to dry it. But it has been taking a while with the blow dryer. Not when using this towel! I could have air-dried my hair if I wanted to. Super happy I got it. I should have gotten one a looong time ago. I just thought it was another gimmick to take my money. Nope! It's the real deal." —*Peace*

Price: $6.60+ (available in 16 colors)

11. A body sponge prefilled with ultra-moisturizing body wash, lasting up to twenty washes! With this thing, you don't need to worry about tripping over clunky bottles on your shower floor!

Amazon

Promising reviews: "If I could give more stars, I would. Love this sponge. It is a nice little scrubby with the best-smelling suds. Best of all, when used daily, it makes your skin extra smooth. I use it all over, especially my arms, which had started to look a bit crepey...I'll be 70 this year. But, with the use of this sponge, my arms look and feel wonderful." —jj

"I love these sponges because they're an easy, fast, cheap, un-messy way to exfoliate the skin on my body. I like using the sponge way better than using body scrubs, which are much more expensive, have to be replaced more often, and almost always leave tiny bits and pieces of scrub residue on my skin." —BigHeart

Price: $6.99+ (available in 12 scents and multipack options)

12. A mattifying powder dry shampoo to dab into your scalp for absorbing grease and sweat when you don't have time for a full-on hair wash day. This product is great for when you're in a rush but need to get rid of that oily bedhead stat!

www.amazon.com, Amazon

BTW, this is cruelty free!

Get a look at how it's used on TikTok.

Promising review: "I bought this in desperation after having elbow surgery, which left me unable to wash my own hair. I have tried countless dry shampoo sprays and have been disappointed every time. But this? Absolutely 100% game changer. It kept my hair feeling clean and oil-free for several days at a time. It's easy to use, absorbs in quickly, no white residue on my dark hair, and you don't need much. I will never buy another brand again. This is my holy grail of dry shampoo." —Bad Girl

"I have curly hair and usually wash my hair every three days or so. I've tried nearly every dry shampoo product there is — from aerosol sprays to other powders, but NONE of them work as great as this one does. I dislike the sprays because the fragrance is usually just too much for me. They also run out quickly. I love that the design of this product — the application is so easy, and you can really spot treat problem areas (for me, it's around my ears and forehead line). It works really really well, and applying before bed is a preventative measure that makes your morning hair routine go by super fast." —Amazon Customer

Price: $18

13. A Bed Head Curls diffuser hair dryer because curls typically need a little extra work to look their best, and this thing will have your tresses looking air-dried in minutes.

amazon.com, Amazon

Promising reviews: "The best thing I have ever bought for my hair...EVER. This was a game-changer for me. I've already recommended this to friends who have ordered it and said the same thing. The picture is with a regular blow dryer vs. with THIS blow dryer. If you have curly hair, you NEED this in your life. No questions asked. Buy it now! Don't read any more reviews; you're wasting valuable time. Just trust me. This is all you need in life." —Kimberly Stokes

"If you're a curly girl, then you know how important it is to find a good dryer and diffuser. It can be tricky to find a diffuser that works and fits great on your blow dryer. I was so excited when I found this one that combines it all. The entire dryer is lightweight making it easy to use. The heat is amazing, and without the extension of a regular blow dryer, the heat gets to your hair quicker, allowing a fast dry time (even with thick hair). This will be so great to travel with as it's only one less bulky piece compared to a blow dryer and diffuser separately. I'm so glad I found this diffuser dryer!" —ArmyDuo

Price: $28.72

14. Or a Revlon One-Step Dryer Brush so you can get an absolutely gorgeous blowout in LESS THAN 30 MINUTES at home rather than spending upwards of $50 at a posh hair salon for the same results.

Promising reviews: "I was skeptical about buying at first because I have course 4c hair. I was scared my hair would get tangled, but let me tell you, that’s not the case. It gets my hair straight and does not take long at all. It's a quick way to blow out my hair." —Niqniq

"Much faster than using a flat iron and useful when there’s little time to get ready for work. Makes my hair much softer, it definitely was as advertised and worth the price." —mary

Price: $28.30+ (available in five colors)

15. A pack of clip-in hair extensions if you want a movie premier-worthy 'do without spending tons at the salon. Just clip these babies in and be amazed by your gorgeous new locks (even though they're not real).

Promising reviews: "Wow! These extensions are beautiful! So easy to put on (beginner here), the color is amazing, the curls are perfect, and very thorough instructions. I didn't realize they were also including a comb, bonus hair band, extra fastener kit, and spray bottle for cleaning. I haven't tried it, but the instructions say you can straighten these as well. I can't believe the price for what you get! Highly recommend." —Jamie H

"My mind is blown at how good this clip-in is. I give it a BEAUTIFUL ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.. It’s literally perfect and so much easier to get ready for my day! Amazing." —Sabrina

Price: $9.99 (available in six lengths and 41 colors). And check out some extensions for types 3 and 4 hair here and here

16. An eyeshadow primer to make sure your eye makeup survives your night out on the town. I use this every time I wear eyeshadow, and it works so incredibly well. Even after hours of gettin' sweaty on the dance floor, my look is still sharp! Plus, since it dries quickly, you can apply your eyeshadow ASAP!

Promising reviews: "So, let me start by saying I have used nearly every eyeshadow primer available. From high-end to low — MAC, Lorac, Urban Decay...they don't hold a candle to Thank Me Later. I have very oily skin. I use this primer, and my shadow lasts a full eight hours or more. I could get maybe five or six out of the other brands if I'm lucky. I got this as a sample in my Ipsy bag, and I had to buy the full-size product straight away! I couldn't be happier with my purchase. Thank you, Elizabeth Mott, for finally making a primer that lasts! I love this stuff!" —Melissa Mae

"A little goes a long way. Primer dries fast so I can apply eyeshadow right away. A good amount of product too." —S. Ynda

Price: $14.65

17. A bestselling, dual-ended Maybelline eyebrow pencil featuring an angled pencil on one side and a spoolie brush on the other, so you can achieve the brows of your dreams with just one tool.

Promising reviews: "Fast way to fill brows! Just as good as the top brands I’ve tried from Sephora." —Toni

"I’m a pro makeup artist, and this is the only brow pencil I’ve truly fallen in love with. I’ve tried high-end like ABH and Urban Decay, etc., and I’ve never loved a brow pencil like this one. The color is perfect; the shape is perfect, and the formula is perfect! I can’t find them in store anymore!" —Jessika Morin

Price: $8.82+ (available in four shades)

18. A cult-famous, cruelty-free Essence Lash Princess mascara with over 200,000 5-star ratings if you're looking to achieve long, flake-free lashes that'll hold up all day long. You just need a few swipes, and you'll instantly have red carpet-worthy lashes!

Promising review: "I am a makeup artist. This mascara outperforms nearly every other mascara I have used. I am 55 and have purchased and used an innumerable amount of drugstore and specialty mascaras. All the high-priced ones are SUPPOSED to do what this very quiet, marketed, black mascara does: coats every lash, thickens and lengthens every time, and for this price?!?! Sssshhh, don't tell anyone, lol." —Laura Price

"I rarely write a review unless a product is amazing. I used probably 50 mascaras throughout my life, from a few dollars to over $40 per tube, and this is my very favorite. It goes on thick but doesn't flake. It builds up fast and lengthens in just a few swipes. It saves so much drying and building time. Makes my lashes instantly longer." —S.F.

Price: $4.99 (available in two colors and a three-pack)

Promising reviews: "This right here is one of the products I SWEAR BY! The facial sprays are amazing! 🙌 The green facial spray is cooling, moisturizing, and great for applying and setting makeup. So far, I have ordered the aloe, cucumber, and green tea facial spray. I like to keep one in my purse and one at home, so I always have quick access to a spritz whenever I feel like I need that extra oomph to my dull or tired skin. Definitely going to try the rest of the sprays and other products in the line." —Mary Malarky

www.amazon.com, Amazon

Promising reviews: "I am 60 years old with rosacea and very sensitive skin. I’ve tried several lotions with age-related ingredients, and I always seem to run into issues with the product. Either it doesn’t work, or it’s too strong for my sensitive skin. This lotion is great! I have been using it for a few weeks now, and it has softened my skin, evened out my skin tone, and reduced wrinkles. I’ve already ordered my second tube." —Beth

"I’ve tried so many moisturizers, but this one is truly amazing. It’s super lightweight, absorbs fast, and doesn’t leave any greasy feeling. My skin has been feeling a lot more balanced and less irritated since I started using it daily. It also layers really well under makeup. Definitely a must-have if you want something simple, effective, and gentle!" —Gessica M

Price: $23.99

22. A Supergoop! SPF 40 Glowscreen that makes you look super glowy without any nasty white cast left behind. I use this product a lot and love that it doesn't make my face feel greasy like other sunscreens do. Just apply it as a foundation/moisturizer/sunscreen combo, and you're good to go!

Promising reviews: "I’ve tried a lot of sunscreen and primers over the last year. I mean A LOT. My skin is super sensitive, acne-prone, and prone to dryness and redness. (Complicated, I know.) This stuff doesn’t feel heavy, moisturizes really well, while not feeling like I’ll break out later. It protected my skin from sunburn during six hours at Six Flags. I don’t wear a ton of makeup, but the foundation and bronzer I wore didn’t budge or crease. It makes your skin glow, which alone is a bit much for me, but under some foundation, it looks amazing! Def worth the buy and will buy again." —H.E.

"Love this product. Put on moisturizer and add Glowscreen and I’m ready!" —Patricia J Miller

Price: $18+ (available in three sizes and four shades)

Promising reviews: "My skin feels like the bottom of a newborn. This is so great. The natural ingredients are the best, and they leave my skin with a natural glow and softness that I have never felt before. I have aging skin, and it is just a great product. I use it on my face and my hair on wash days. I am going to order three more just so I don’t run out." —Divine

"What I like about the product is its all-around use and effectiveness when it comes to caring for the surface of your skin. It is fast absorbing and allows you to quickly move on with your day after completing the application stage of each treatment. It is also fragrance-free which makes it the perfect product for me personally." —Amazon Customer

Price: $12.99 (also available in three- and six-packs)

24. A leave-in conditioning spray for curly hair to gently detangle and restore your little one's (and your) textured locks without tons of fuss that takes up tons and tons of time.

Reviewers say this spray will leave wavy or curly hair (from 2a–4c hair) shiny, soft, and bouncy. And it's free from parabens, sulfates, phthalates, synthetic colors or dyes, propylene glycol, gluten, wheat, and nuts!

Promising reviews: "This is the BEST product EVER! I will never use another hair detangler ever again. We use this product daily in my house, my daughter, my son, and I. Both of us girls have long and thick curly hair, and it allows us to brush through our hair with no problems! And my son mostly uses it to style his hair before gel, and because it smells so good! We tried a few products from Walmart, Ulta, and Target, and nothing was good enough. This is now on my subscribe and save every month!" —Tamira McLelland

"My daughter has super curly hair, and I have a hard time getting her to sit still so I can brush through it. This spray helps so much. She doesn't fight me as much when I use it because I can spray it and comb through her hair a lot faster than I could without it." —Joshua

Price: $9.99

25. Or an Ogx Argan Oil of Morocco Curl-Defining Cream to gorgeously define your luscious waves and curls. Plus, it's very nourishing for your silky locks on the quick!

A bonus? This stuff is free from parabens and provides a sulfate-free haircare system. Translation: This is gentle for use on all curl types and textures to help bump up your hair's natural strength.

Promising reviews: "Absolutely love this stuff! It's the one hair product I have to have. I rotate shampoos and conditioners but have never found anything to put on damp hair that I like as much as this. It says it's for curls, but it works great on straight hair, too. I have had super straight to very curly hair over the years and have loved this on all hairstyles." —Bunco Queen of the Universe

"Let's be honest. My hair is SO BLEH! Is it curly? Is it straight? Why are my waves so funky? And what's with all the FRIZZ!? Enter this AMAZING curl cream that makes my hair look like a dream! How do I style? HOWEVER! Sometimes I scrunch and diffuse. Usually I wash my hair at night, comb some of this lovely cream through it, sleep on it wet, and then touch up the top layer, curling with a flat iron in the morning. Takes five minutes or less. I'm a minimalist when it comes to hair products and time spent getting ready. This cream has become my secret to effortless hair! I've gotten more compliments since using this cream in the past two months than I've gotten in the past two years! It's that good. Get it, girl!" —Book Loving Mama

Price: $7.97

26. A pack of deodorant wipes for those mornings when you don't have time for a full shower but need to not smell like a teen locker room for your 10 a.m. meeting.

Amazon

Promising review: "Best wipes out there. Definitely freshens, I use on underarms and under-boob. I couple it with Dove's Advanced Dry Cool Cucumber and the two keep me fresh on my very long days. The seal works great. I read to always store wipes upside down to maintain the moisture on the wipes for the next use. I really was skeptical, but now I make sure I have them even in my travel bag." —Nile

"Great product for a fast and lasting clean." —kat b

Price: $29.98 for a pack of two
