I am a contributor who has been writing for Buzzfeed Shopping for five years by finding fashion, beauty, and home products to help you ~romanticize~ your life.

1. A Westman Atelier contour stick so you can look and feel snatched every single day. You'll love the natural finish on this and just how easy it is to blend out, plus it's easy to pop in your bag and bring with you for a refresh. 

Sephora

Promising review: "Can’t say enough good things about this product! I use it during the summer and winter months, and it provides the best contour ever! It glides on amazingly and feels like nothing on my skin!" —SteffiL23

Price: $26 (available in four colors) 

2. A honey-infused lip oilto keep your lips so hydrated and super glossy. It includes ingredients like honey from the brand's bee garden in The Netherlands, bee garden oils, and hyaluronic acid to help lock in your lips' moisture while also replenishing them.

Sephora

Promising review: "A must-have in your purse! Love how I can just apply it and go! Perfect texture and the smell is heavenly! Leaves my lips moisturized and plump!!!"—Nina2o

Price: $28 (available in two finishes and 12 colors) 

3. A Summer Fridays lip butter balm because your lips need a little extra TLC right now. You'll love that this uses shea and murumuru butter, which can help moisturize, soothe, and condition your lips, making them perfectly kissable.

Sephora

I actually have many flavors of this because I love it. Each of these smells and tastes so good and gives my lips a glossy look while also making them feel nourished.

Promising review: "I love these lippies! I was obsessed with another brand, but since I have tried this brand, I’m so OBSESSED! I love the application, the amount of product you get and formula. So creamy, smooth and long-lasting." —briwiff

Price: $24 (available in 10 colors)

4. Afoundation and concealer stick that'll look so natural on you, no one will even realize you're wearing makeup. You'll love the natural-looking finish on this and the fact that it's super buildable.

Sephora

Promising review: "I’m blown away by this product, it works so well! I have a lot of redness on my cheeks and nose, and this covers it like magic! A bit pricey, but totally worth it in my opinion. Product lasts for hours and rolls on so easily. I will for sure buy this once I run out." —cwerlick

Price: $38 (available in 30 shades) 

5. A Glow Recipe blush-like serum because we stan a 2-in-1 product! Buildable with a wash of pink, this helps to plump, hydrate, and brighten your skin.

Sephora

This was one of my most-used products of last year. The reason I love it so much is that it is super lightweight (it feels like water), and the pigment is super buildable, so I could do a soft look *or* something a lot more intense. The color is also soooo pretty! 

Promising review: "I absolutely love this product! It feels great on the skin. It is not sticky or greasy. It doesn’t rub off easily. It lasts a good amount of time. And the best part, it treats the skin while giving color. It blends very nicely." —mikaylashereese

Price: $25 (available in four shades)

6. A Rhode pocket blush since it's been this hyped up for a good reason. You can use this on both your lips and cheeks. Lightweight and buildable with cute packaging, this isn't a want but a *need.*

Sephora

I love this blush so much! It's super pigmented, and it's super easy to use and blend. I'm a big blush girl, and this is one of the few that I actually want several shades in. I've been using "Piggy," and it's my dream shade. 

Promising review: "I bought this product in October 2025, and it finally ran out. Lasted me so long and I use it everyday!! I do recommend layering a powder blush on top so it will stay longer! 10/10 will keep repurchasing." —joliemakuplover

Price: $25 (available in six shades) 

7. A Charlotte Tilbury blurring and setting powder to make your face look filtered IRL. It has a natural finish and can help reduce any unwanted shine. Rumor has it, this is what Taylor Swift used on the Eras Tour!

Sephora

Promising review: "Best setting powder I’ve ever used. Worth every penny! Recently wore it to my son’s wedding. It didn’t oxidize or need touching up the whole day, into the evening. It blurs my texture and pores and looks flawless. I’m on my second one." —KarlaAnnn

Price: $29+ (available in two sizes, refills, and four colors) 

8. A Refy hydrating primer serum roller that'll give your skin a glow while also sculpting it. Thanks to redness-reducing and skin-brightening niacinamide, this will have you looking snatched without having to contour.

Sephora

Promising review: "This was totally a cool packaging purchase, I’ll admit, but I love the product inside! I applied it before my makeup (let it dry down first), and it had me looking hydrated and glowy all day without being too much!" —dessbrook

Price: $22+(available in two sizes) 

9. A lightweight multi-purpose illuminator from Saie, because you can use it as a glowy primer or as a highlighter or both, depending on your mood. This gives a glow-from-within look, so if you want to trick people into thinking you just got a facial (or a good night's sleep for once), this is for you.

Sephora

Promising review: "Best glowy primer on the market, hands down. It's super lightweight and doesn't sit heavily on the skin like other popular glowy primers can do. It adds a bit of blur, but I mostly noticed it makes my foundation go on way smoother on top. Plus, it makes my foundation stretch a lot further, so I can use less. Love it." —HeatherzB

Price: $18+ (available in two sizes and five colors) 

10. A super lightweight foundation from Pat McGrath to make your skin look red carpet–ready. It is as light as a serum with medium, buildable coverage, making it awesome for every single day or any fancy occasion.

Sephora

It's been a while since I've had this in my collection, but I used it until the last drop. I love how this gives your skin a perfect finish. Every time I wore this out, I got a million compliments on how good my skin looked (my skin has a lot of redness, but you cannot see any of that with this). 

Promising review: "This foundation is so underrated! Lightweight, satiny, and skin-like with medium, buildable coverage. The trick? Apply with fingers — it melts in like skincare. Feels luxe, never cakey, and lasts all day. It creates the loveliest veil over the skin. I feel instantly beautified." —Badgalcincin

Price: $69 (available in 30 shades) 

11. A jar of multi-chrome flakesthat'll work on your eyes and face for a high-impact look with minimal effort. There is no mixing medium needed, but you do need to let this dry a bit before adding another layer.

Sephora

Promising review: "This product blew my mind!! I love using sparkles, but usually they don’t last, or they move, but this one stays in place all night! I love Danessa products. 🩷" —MeryPineda

Price: $28 (available in five colors) 

12. An Iconic London liquid highlighter, which is basically liquid gold for your face. You can use this baby alone or mix it with your moisturizer, foundation, primer, and even your blush (I've done this a few times).

Sephora

I use this product several times a week, that's how much I love it. I prefer to use it as a highlighter to top off any look. I also love to use this right on my brow bone for a little extra sparkle. I even mix this with my blushes and cover my cheeks in it!

Promising review: "This is so beautiful and creamy. Very easy to blend and will last you a long time. Highly recommend it!" —Nita617

Price: $40 

13. An under-eye brightening and color-correcting powder, so you look wide awake, no matter what kept you up last night. It gives a soft-focus look while also setting your makeup.

Sephora

Promising review: "I love the way this brightens my under-eye! I get soooo many compliments every time I use it. I can definitely see the difference when I don’t use it!!"—Tayyye 

Price: $35 (available in five shades) 

14. A Tarte tubing mascara that'll give your lashes volume, curl, and a little bit of length. Flake free and smudge proof, this is calling my name! Also tubing mascara is usually so easy to remove.

Sephora

Promising review: "This mascara is my new go-to! This has lasted me through heated workout classes, full work shifts, and more without budging at all. Finally, a transfer-proof mascara that actually works for me!!" —Maebry

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

15. A can of the viral One/Size setting spray so you can end your makeup routine on a high note. There is so much to love about this product; it is waterproof for up to 16 hours, it's transfer-proof, and it even uses witch hazel, which can absorb oil and mattify your look.

Sephora

Promising review: "This made my makeup last all day! I have really oily skin and wear glasses, so finding a setting spray that actually works has been hard. This really makes your makeup stay on your skin for HOURS. HOURS." —reb69

Price: $18+ (available in two sizes) 

16. A Dermalogica pre-cleanse cleansing oil that'll act as step one during your double face-cleansing routine. This deeply cleans your skin, removing SPF as well as waterproof makeup. 

Sephora

Promising review: "I’ve tried others. They don’t perform the same, and they don’t have the heavenly scent that this one does. And trust me, you would rather the spa-like experience of Dermalogica vs. another brand that feels and smells like rubbing vegetable oil on your face." —8675309eg

Price: $17+(available in three sizes) 

17. A Rhode milky and hydrating essence to give your skin a boost of hydration and an extra glow. It's got a ceramide trio, which will help your skin look smoother and help with your barrier and moisturizers.  

Sephora

Promising review: "I have the most sensitive, dry, acne-prone skin. I tried this product when it first launched and cannot go one day without it! Truly cannot put makeup on my face without applying this first. It’s the best thing I’ve ever added to my routine. It makes my skin so glowy and hydrated! My makeup glides on and stays on all day. Also, one bottle lasts forever." —novaleejune

Price: $20+(available in two sizes) 

18. A lightweight and dewy sunscreenfrom Beauty of Joseon that'll melt into your skin. This is a skincare-forward SPF, so it includes hydrating hyaluronic acid, brightening and calming niacinamide, and dewy, moisturizing panthenol. 

Sephora

Promising review: "After using this product for a month, I can confidently say I love it. It sits beautifully on the skin and gives me the perfect dewy finish. My goal has always been to have that 'glazed donut' look, and this sunscreen helps me achieve it without feeling heavy or greasy. It leaves my skin looking healthy and radiant every day. This is truly the best SPF I’ve ever used on my face, and I can’t recommend it enough!" —Glazeee

Price: $18 

19. A Gisou hydrating hair masksince your hair could use a little extra love. To hydrate and moisturize your hair, it uses different weights of Hyaluronic Acid, and it also uses Mirsalehi honey and a bee garden oil blend to nourish your hair and give it shine! 

Sephora

Promising review: "Only hair mask that worked for my bleached, damaged, dry hair after trying different hydrating hair masks in the span of four years. It is very thick but is not heavy and does not leave a residue." —tals67

Price: $24

20. An Amika dry shampoo to absorb oil while giving your volume a boost. BTW, this bb works on all hair types and doesn't leave any residue or any scents. 

Sephora

Promising review: "I'm picky about dry shampoo. My hair gets very oily, so I need something that genuinely works, and this is it. It keeps my hair looking, smelling, and FEELING fresh for days. I hate dry shampoos that make my hair feel dense at the scalp, so this one is perfect because it's light AND works. And it's the only clean ingredient dry shampoo that I've found that works, added bonus!" —allisonnch

Price: $16+ (available in three sizes) 

21. A hand and nail cream from Caudalíe because it's a little luxury, and you could use a little of that right now. Rich in texture and still lightweight, this will have your hands and nails thanking you. 

Sephora

Promising review: "This is the first hand cream that I’ve consistently used. I love the mild scent, and I don’t have greasy hands after applying. I have a tube for my purse, my vanity, and my nightstand." —Zmoser3

Price: $16 

22. A set of viral Biodance face masks, so you can determine which one is your favorite. I love that this includes a variety of options, so you can play around with everything and see what your skin responds best to.

Sephora

This has four different styles of masks in it, including a pore care mask, a hydrating mask, a calming mask, and a dark spot mask.

Promising review: "I put my whole family onto these. 😌 Everyone loves them! It’s definitely a must for me now, and I highly recommend them🫶🏽"   —broooklynmeowww

Price: $19

23. A Ouai leave-in conditioner that'll do it all. You can use it to detangle your hair, hydrate your hair, and fight your arch nemesis — aka frizz. It also offers protection from heat styling tools.

Sephora

Price: $18+ (also available in a larger size) 

24. A Youth To The People cleanserbecause it's basically a green juice for your face! It uses kale and spinach to keep your skin glowing, green tea that fights aging, and glycerin, vitamin B5 and E to hydrate and soothe your skin. 

Sephora

Promising review: "I’ve gotten this product consistently for the past three years, it makes my skin smooth, removes skin imperfections, and hydrates it so beautifully. I have recommended this product to everyone I know. If you are thinking about buying it, buy it." —Ariane5PK

Price: $16+ (available in three sizes) 

25. A bottle of JVN styling milkthat'll level up your at-home blow-out. This is a heat-activated cream that can add a little smoothness to your hair, as well as heat and humidity protection.

Sephora

Promising review: "This is my holy grail item. Bought it on a whim, and now my hair is so soft and shiny after blow-drying. Get complimented on it too." —DorcasGailen

Price: $32

26. A depuffing eye serum from Clinique, so people think you slept but stayed up all night overthinking. When you apply this, it has a rollerball applicator that refreshes, depuffs, and brightens your eye area. 

Sephora

Promising review: "This stuff is great! A little goes a long way with hydrating your under-eyes. Just don't use too much or too much because it can make your eyes look a bit puffy." —yazzy88

Price: $41 

27. A pore-clearing clay maskto detox your skin because let's face it, you need this. Skin-smoothing, pore-minimizing, sucking out excess sebum, this is basically the dream mask. 

Sephora

Promising review: "THE best clay mask I’ve ever used. Got this before as a small sample and immediately fell in love with it! As someone who has super oily skin, it helps so much with my pores and makes my face feel so clean after. It helps." —groovyVMB

Price: $16 

28. And a L'Occitane nail and cuticle oil because it can make your nails look and feel like a million bucks. Infused with shea, apricot, and almond oils, these nourishing ingredients will make your cuticles way softer, especially when used consistently.

Sephora

Promising review: "I’m on my second bottle. I use gel on my natural nails, and this makes them grow so fast and healthy. I usually have dry cuticles and haven’t had that issue since I started using this. It’s 100% worth the money." —Cc38
