www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

It also can help tighten the appearance of eye wrinkles if you'd prefer for them not to be as noticeable. 

Promising review: "I have always had bags and dark circles under my eyes and have tried sooooo many things. I was skeptical that this would work, but oh. my. goodness. This little stick is amazing. The puffiness was gone. Dark circles, still there some but definitely not as bad. It also smells really nice and absorbs instantly. Plus, the container is cute.

So if you've been staying up well past your bedtime for the past week bingeing your fave TV show (and it shows around your eyes), this miracle cream will come to your rescue. 

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "Seriously, try this eye cream! Holy grail status. I don’t think I’ve ever left a review on Amazon before. This eye cream is THAT good. I was a makeup artist for years. I’ve been using an eye cream daily since I was 19 (over a decade), so have tried lots of brands, and this stuff is phenomenal! It’s now become my go-to cream for my face, eyes, neck, AND décolletage. My skin veers toward dry and I haven’t found a face cream I like as much as this that isn’t $75, so I just use it all over. The jar is big enough for that and a little goes a LONG way. Use this cream twice a day for the eyes — in the morning under the eye and before bed under the eye and also on the eye lid up to the brow bone — and you will fall in love, too." —L.R.

Get it from Amazon for $14.99+ (available in three sizes).

5. Anua heartleaf pore-clearing cleansing oil to dissolve makeup residue, blackheads, and excess sebum *without* clogging pores or over-drying skin. Reviewers say that they could actually see the oils and gunk leaving their face — kinda gross, very satisfying, and a major slay. 

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

BTW, a lot of reviewers say they use this as part of their double cleansing routine. As the name implies, double cleansing is a method of cleansing your face twice: first with an oil-based cleanser, and again with a water-based cleanser to help get all the yucky stuff out of your pores.

Promising review: "This is my first time ordering an oil-based cleanser and I’m so glad I purchased this one. I originally saw this product on TikTok and wanted to see what the hype was all about. After using the cleanser on my dry face for 2–3 minutes, I could visibly see my white- and blackheads on my fingers. I was a little hesitant to try oil cleansing because I have acne-prone skin, however, my face has never looked better. After each use, my face is as soft as a baby's bottom and my scarring doesn’t look as deep! The cleanser has a light clean scent. Not super strong! I am currently pairing this cleanser with the Anua Heartleaf soothing toner to achieve glass skin. #glassskinera" —Myshel Cagle

Get it from Amazon for $17.69 (also available in a mild version).

6. The Revlon Volcanic Face Roller — it soaks up any excess oil throughout the day, leaving your skin feeling fresh. The best part(s)? It can be used over a full face of makeup and is reusable, so you don't have to keep buying blotting papers! 

Amazon, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "I have super oily skin and am always looking for something to help control it during the day. The linen squares are good but you have to keep them around (aka keep replacing them) and they end up in the landfill. This little contraption really works and I just rinse it at the end of the day and start over again the next. I keep one in my desk and bought a second for my purse. This is magic for my shiny skin, especially on camera in my hours of Zoom everyday." —Jennifer Helseth

Get it from Amazon for $7.99.

7. Sol De Janeiro Bum Bum Cream to help smooth and tighten skin with its caffeine and guaraná extract formula. Reviewersrave about how it helps reduce the appearance of stretch marks (if that's something you're looking to address — but remember you look fab 🎶 just the way you are 🎶)! Plus, it has a pistachio, salted caramel, and vanilla scent...oops, that just made my mouth water. 

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Caffeine is an antioxidant that can brighten skin complexion and temporarily reduce stretch marks and cellulite appearance, if that's something you want to do. Read more about the skincare benefits of caffeine at the Cleveland Clinic!

Promising review: "Y'all. This stuff smells like heaven. Somehow, this scent is appropriate for summer and winter at the same time. It absorbs quickly with no sticky feelings afterward. The one thing that might deter some people from buying it is that there is a shimmer to it. Once I've used it on my hands, I notice that in sunlight, my skin has a bit of a glimmer. I personally love this and can't wait to use this lotion during the summer. I think it's 100% worth the high price tag. When I can summon up the will to spend the money, I'll be buying the body wash, spray, and full-sized lotion as well; currently, the mini lotion stays in my purse." —Elizabeth

Get it from Amazon for $24 (available in two sizes).

Promising review: "Doesn’t dry my skin out at all! I can totally feel a difference in how my skin feels when I use this compared to other washes. I have super sensitive, eczema-ridden skin, and my eczema is especially flared up around my eyes, and this doesn’t burn them or irritate them at all! I also struggle with acne, and this has helped me with that as well! I wish I would’ve found this sooner!" —Bridget Z.

Get it from Amazon for $12.37+ (available in three sizes).

9. TirTir milk toner to give your skin a little hydration boost before moisturizing or putting on makeup. It's formulated with chamomile, which reduces redness and irritation, and rice bran extracts to help even skin tone and enhance brightness.

www.amazon.com

Psst…It's also alcohol-free, paraben-free, and fragrance-free, making it perfect for even the most sensitive of skin.

Promising reviews: "For a toner, this is SO hydrating and just heavenly. It's perfect for makeup prep as it has just a tad of tackiness right after applying. Goes on under my serums and moisturizer perfectly and I've noticed a huge difference in my skin. I saw it recommended by a YouTuber and tried it and it's now a daily use for me, which is rare because I have very sensitive, acne-prone skin and I'm very picky about skincare. I can't recommend this enough, truly." —Amazon Customer

"One of my favorite finds from watching TikTok videos. Definitely worth the hype. Feels amazing on the skin. I keep it in the fridge!!" —VickyT

Get it from Amazon for $13+ (available in two sizes and a lighter version).

10. Blume Meltdown Acne Oil that nourishes skin instead of drying it out. Use it before moisturizing or mix it in for a full-face coverage. Its rosehip, blue tansy, tamanu, and black cumin seed formula helps to fight current pimples, reduce acne scars, and even prevent future breakouts. 

Blume

HuffPost Shopping writer Haley Zovickian says, "I have had hormonal, cystic acne since adolescence and still deal with painful hormonal acne, plus skin that's somehow dry *and* oily. On top of that, my skin has somehow become more sensitive with every passing year so I'm very careful about what I put on my face. I was initially skeptical that an oil of all things would help my skin, but I LOVE this thing. It is somehow so lightweight while feeling truly nourishing. My breakouts have cleared up since starting this product, and my skin is less oily and more even, like the oil has been balanced out. 

"I've been looking everywhere for a skincare product with black cumin seed oil (a v underrated antibacterial and anti-inflammatory oil that helps fade pigmentation and is gentle enough to calm even eczema), so I was delighted that it was a main ingredient in this. Also, can I just say the product's push-down (instead of squeezing) dropper packaging is ingenious?!"

Get a 0.5 oz. bottle from Amazon for $28 or a 1 oz. bottle direct from Blume for $47.

11. The Esarora ice roller so you can target puffy areas on your face and soothe inflamed skin, headaches, and even sore muscles! Even if you don't need it, you can use it for a refreshing massage.

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "I went to a high-end spa that used one of these on my face. It felt so good so I ran home and found this on Amazon. This tool is the best. I use it for a thigh issue that needs to be iced frequently. It's so easy – no bags of ice? Just use the freezer roller! I use it for headaches and on my face to feel good! I can't say enough good things about this product — everyone should have one! My boyfriend loves it too!" —Rula

www.amazon.com

Promising reviews: "This!!!! This is my new holy grail product. I decided to switch up my skincare routine and researched BHAs and this product because I had seen everyone talking about it. I have very very dry, acne-prone skin that also had tons of blackheads on my chin and nose and little bumps (I don’t even know what they were) on my cheeks. I have been using this for around a week and a half and I’ve noticed such a huge difference. The bumps on my cheeks are gone, and the blackheads I had spent years trying to pop or pick out or use pore strips are basically gone. I have no idea how it worked so fast and I am so amazed. I told everyone to buy this and it’s worth it 100%. I am amazed by this. It also does not dry out my skin like I expected it to." —Cameron Stussie

"I don’t know what sorcery this is, or what kind of magic is included, but I can tell you this has changed my skin. I am late '50s with oily skin. I have never taken care of my skin, but I bought this after reading a review and HOLY COW. This is the REAL DEAL." —cynthia williamson

Promising review: "I have ordered this twice now. If my skin is breaking out I just spray this on after washing my face and let it air dry. It is nonirritating and nondrying. It has a light chlorine smell to me. I can use both morning and night with no irritation. After a few days of this, my skin started clearing up! I put some in a travel spray bottle and take it when I’m flying. My skin always feels dirty on planes, and I spray it on a few times on travel days to freshen my face and hopefully kill some bacteria. It sprays over makeup with no issues." —SaraSmile11

I so wish I had found this sooner." —ladyweldon

I recently received this lip balm and I refuse to be without it, I'm not even exaggerating. Whenever I realized I've left my apartment without it, I go back and get it — it's that good. My favorite thing about this lip balm is the metal applicator. I've never seen anything like it! It's cooling to the touch and goes on so smooth without leaving any residue behind. As a lip product connoisseur, this is by far my favorite because not only does it leaves my lips hydrated as heck but it also adds a tint of color so I don't need to go over it with lipstick or a colored gloss! 

Promising review: "You get a lot of shine with little product. Honestly one of the best lip glosses I’ve EVER had. I’m double stocked on every color :)" —Amber K.

Promising review: "If you're like me and have oily/combo skin that is also sensitive and prone to acne, this is an excellent product worth its price. Very little goes a long way since the slimy texture glides right over the skin. It does not leave any sticky residue, on the contrary, it is absorbed into the skin very quickly. It also keeps the skin moisturized but does not trap oil, in fact, I find my skin to be less oily after a few days of using it!" —Madeline

Get it from Amazon for $20.46.

19. Mixsoon Bean Essence, yet another K-beauty staple reviewers love because it exfoliates and hydrates their skin at the same time — that's pretty darn tootin' marvelous.

Promising reviews: "I saw this all over TikTok/Instagram and decided to buy it because I have a lot of sebaceous filaments on my chin and nose. It's a little expensive but I took a gamble: It works! You can physically see the sebaceous filaments come out of your pores, it is not the product bunching up. My problem areas were so much smoother after using and are left with a moisturized glow. I then proceeded to have my boyfriend use this product to see of it worked this good on everyone on the first try and it worked on his nose as well. Amazing stuff. 🩷" —Losa

Game changer for me, will def try the others!" —Kristy 

"I have heard about the great Korean beauty products. I have mouthlines that I don’t like. I thought I’d give this product a try. It definitely plumps up my skin, which helps decrease the appearance of my lip lines. It gives my normally dry skin a dewy finish. I really enjoy wearing it at bedtime. I’m going to be trying other items from this line. Cool product, there’s a reason it took TikTok by storm." —nicky

Promising review: "I believe I was born with dark circles under my eyes, and I have spent the last 50+ years looking for something that will cover my dark circles. I’ve spent a lot more money on products that do a lot less. And I was very hesitant to buy something so inexpensive as I thought it would not work. I was surprised to find my circles a lot lighter, and my eyes are looking much more alert and younger. I’m very pleased with this product!" —Lafinrsm

Promising review: "I LOVE THIS PRODUCT!!!! I found it on TikTok and OMG!! It works so well. I don't have to sit there and rub the crap out of my eyelashes to get the waterproof mascara off. I will admit, it doesn't take 100% of the makeup off but about 95% of my makeup comes off. It is not water-resistant, as emulsifying it with water helps take the makeup off. I have not found a better makeup remover, and yes that includes Micellar Water (which also works well but leaves my skin feeling oily). With this cleansing balm my face feels hydrated and smooth. LOVE LOVE LOVE IT!!!!!!!! 1000/10 would recommend!!!" —Deetje Frederick

The Eos Vanilla Cashmere scent contains fragrance notes of whipped vanilla, soft musk, and cozy caramel!

BuzzFeed Shopping writer Amber Usher is a huge fan: "The Eos Vanilla Cashmere lotion is one of those beauty products that I always buy two at a time because I can not live without it.
