1. 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 $13.90 (also available in a mild version).

2. A painless, mint-flavored teeth-whitening pen to help remove years of staining, and it takes only 30 seconds to apply! Plus, they won't cause sensitivity like other options (*cough* Crest Whitestrips) can. Your teeth will become so white, you'll never want to stop smiling — c'mon, show off those all-natural veneers.

www.amazon.com

Promising review: "I bought this on a whim when I saw someone review it on TikTok. After using it several times over the course of a week, I immediately noticed the difference in the color of my teeth. I'm a smoker and a heavy coffee drinker. I'm finding that this product will be a lifesaver in terms of what my smile looks like. I would definitely recommend!!" —Mully

Get a two-pack from Amazon for $18.95 (also available in larger pack sizes).

3. A pack of 40 acne patches so you can tackle that pesky pimple head on. These discreet patches help conceal pimples and prevent you from picking at them while the hydrocolloid absorbs the gunk inside — so they can actually heal faster! They're great for daytime or overnight use.

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

BTW, these work *best* on open, draining pustules (rather than blackheads or pimples that haven't come to a head yet). You can read more at Cleveland Clinic!

Promising review: "I ordered these on a whim after a long day of isolation and internet browsing and because I have a terrible habit of picking at spots on my face and making them into something much much worse. These magical spots are life-changing!!! Put them on before bed (or before work) on clean skin and FORGET about them. You don't notice they're there — unless you go to pick at something and then YOU STOP!! Leave them in place for at least six hours and then peel them off. They come off easily (but not so easy that they come off while sleeping) and the amount of 'bleck' they suck out is amazing!!! So a spot that was going to erupt into Mount Vesuvius ends up being NOTHING!!!! I've purchased six packages and will keep buying them. An amazing value!" —Jennifer Nothdurft

Get a 40-pack from Amazon for $7.64 and an eight-pack of the large patches for $8.99.

4. Or LivaClean Superstar pimple patches that are so cute, you might not even be that mad at the next pimple you get since you'll have an excuse to put one of these bad boys on. They look just like Starface patches but for a fraction of the price — and reviewers say these work way better for shrinking blemishes and helping them heal!

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "I LOVE the look of pimple patches on myself (as weird as that sounds) and absolutely hate the semi-clear ones, since they just draw my eyes to something that’s SUPPOSED to be invisible. So I easily fell in love with the Starface pimple patches — but the issue with those is they’re SO expensive and don’t work at all. THESE, however, have immediately sucked everything out of my face. I love them and literally wear them all the time. So many people have complimented me, saying, 'Oh my gosh, I love how you just wear stickers on your face; it’s adorable.' These also work as [an alternative to] the TikTok Shop ones that are really popular right now and are cheaper! 10/10 from me :)" —evalyn evoke

Get a pack of 240 patches from Amazon for $8.99 (available in four packs of different designs/shapes as well as a six-pack). 

5. Plus, nose pore patches to remove the grime and excess oil in your nose that are begging to be released. Just leave it on overnight and take it off in the morning to see all the goop and gunk it pulled out, plus your clearer, smaller pores. 

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "It had to be said. These things are disgusting, that's why you should buy them. Squeeze part of your nose skin. Do a bunch of little pustules come out? Yeah, if you put one of these puppies on at night, you wake up, and that is all trapped inside that weird film. I dunno how it works. It's probably sorcery." —Jack Sawyer

Get a seven-pack from Amazon for $9.98. 

6. The Cosrx Snail Mucin 96% Power Repairing Essence, a cult-favorite for good reason: It soothes dehydrated skin and reduces dullness, and it's perfect for ALL skin types, even if you have oily skin! Don't worry, no snails were harmed in its making (so Gary, you're safe). 

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

I use this on my skin and definitely have noticed results! While it didn't help completely kick my stubborn pre-period hormonal acne, it has done *wonders* with reducing redness on my face, particularly around my nose, and in dealing with my pores. Since I started using it, my primer and foundation goes on a whole lot smoother, and I'm struggling a whole lot less to cover my pores. After using it a few weeks, I read the advice of one reviewer to put this on when your face is slightly moist from washing, rub it in, let it dry, and then put your moisturizer on top of it — I've found that it's what got me the best results! 

Promising review: "I caved to the TikTok hype, and now I am obsessed, lol! I have extremely sensitive skin, but this was the first product that I didn’t have to go through a 'getting used to' phase." —Shelby

Get it from Amazon for $20.  

7. A vegan under-eye brightener that helps reduce dark circles and balance bluish tones using hyaluronic acid and shea butter (that'll also nourish and hydrate skin!). Reviewers praise the results at this low price and compare it to *much* pricier brands! 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

This medium-coverage concealer can be applied with your fingers or a brush.

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

Get it from Amazon for $6 (available in two tones).

8. A stainless-steel skin spatula with vibrations that'll scrape all the gunk from your face, bringing out blackheads, dirt, and oils from your pores! For less than $20, think about how much you'll save instead of going for a facial!

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "I have very very deep blackheads to the point where you would think they are tiny freckles. I've tried all cleansers and then went with the blackhead suction tool and nothing helped. I used this thing ONE TIME and I can not believe the wonders that it has worked. Most of the blackheads were gone after 10 minutes of use. I also have very sensitive skin, but it didn't hurt or damage the skin whatsoever! I watched a YouTube review as I was doing it to make sure I was doing it correctly. Just buy it. I swear on this amazing creation!" —Kassi Miller

Get it from Amazon for $19.99 (available in three colors).

9. An eyelash comb to separate your lashes when your mascara clumps up after applying. Just brush this through a few times, and you're good to go!

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "No matter how good the brand/wand is, even a brand-new mascara will leave clumps behind. Once applied, mascara dries too fast. This tool easily glides through lashes to remove clumps." —John

Get it from Amazon for $3.99.

10. The bestselling, cruelty-free Essence Lash Princess mascara that enhances your beautiful lashes with its cone-shaped fiber brush — with such dramatic (+ clump-free) results, you won't need extensions or falsies ever again. Reviewers swear it delivers the same (if not better) results as name-brand mascaras for less than $5 — the 250,000+ 5-star ratings don't lie!

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "Holy grail mascara! I've used this mascara for about three years now and it still tops any other mascara I've tried. It will transfer if you apply it to your lower lashes, so I use a different mascara for my bottom lashes, which I don't mind at all. I always get asked if I'm wearing falsies! It's a mascara that stays wet longer, so I always apply one coat, let it get tacky, then apply a second coat for best results." —Joseph Gonzalez

Get it from Amazon for $4.99 (available in two colors and a pack of three). 

11. An easy-to-use collagen-coating hair mask to treat your dry and damaged hair that's been bleached, dyed, or heat-styled one too many times. Just massage it in, let the collagen and ceramide 3 formula work its magic, and rinse after 5–20 minutes to see some luxurious locks. 

www.amazon.com

Psst — it works for all hair types! Reviewers with straight to 4c hair use this hair mask and LOVE it. 

Read our Elizavecca CER-100 Collagen Coating Hair Protein Treatment review to learn more about why my colleague calls it "the miracle product I've been searching for."

Promising review: "I have 4c hair and was looking for a protein treatment for my thin and fragile hair. I had recently used a product in my hair that had so much alcohol in it; that wreaked havoc on my hair, leaving it pretty damaged. I was very skeptical about this product because I have never seen anyone with my hair type use it. Boy was I wrong to doubt this product, it left my hair looking and feeling beautiful. I highly recommend it to anyone natural or with curly hair." —Therese-Claire

Get it from Amazon for $8.40.

12. A bottle of nail and cuticle care oil that can help renew your fingernails after years of nail biting or peeling off acrylics. If your nails are prone to cracking or peeling, the vitamin E and jojoba oil formula will help keep them hydrated and strong!

www.amazon.com

Promising review: "I had peeling, weak nails for years. Tried everything. I bought this in February. This size bottle lasted a bit more than a month with me religiously applying it two to three times a day. I was really seeing great improvement, so I bought another bottle in late March. By May, all the peeling had grown out and my nails were getting stronger every day. I then bought the big 4-ounce refill bottle because I never want to run out of it again! Cannot recommend this stuff enough!" —Diana

Get it from Amazon for $9.90+ (available in three sizes and a pack of two). 

13. A lil' polar bear hydrating eye stick formulated with Icelandic glacial water, moss and seaweed extracts, and niacinamide to address dark circles, lines, and puffiness — all without oils. If you feel like *nothing* gets rid of those all-nighter eye bags, this might just be your savior. For a top-notch experience, use after refrigeration to help better reduce puffiness!

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "I have always had serious dark circles and bags under my eyes and this has really changed this for me. The results are incredible. The puffiness is gone. The dark circles are hardly noticeable. My sensitive skin has not broken out. I never write reviews, but this was so good that I had to write a review. This actually works." —Ben

Get it from Amazon for $9.90. 

14. A travel-friendly dry shampoo powder to mattify your roots and hair so no one will know that you haven't washed your mane in a week 😉. Tap the powder into your roots and gently rub it in, and it'll soak up excess oil, leaving your strands feeling as fresh and full as ever!

Hair Dance is a US-based cruelty-free, vegan small business that specializes in haircare products. 

Promising review: "I was a little unsure about this product but wanted it for vacation to limit aerosols or liquids. I am mind blown! It smells great, doesn’t leave a residue and both volumizes and keeps my hair looking fresh. It also lasts for much longer than an aerosol if you’re someone who uses this daily or every other day. The bottle is small enough to not take up space, but I’ve had my first bottle for months and am barely through half. This will be my go-to from now on." —E

Get it from Amazon for $9.99+ (available in two sizes and two scents). 

15. Nyx Brow Glue so you can sculpt your arches to craft your desired shape, volume, and texture. From natural to feathered brows, you can achieve anything with this baby. It doesn't get tacky or flaky like other glues *and* holds up well against sweat!

www.amazon.com

Promising reviews: "For forever I would use hair spray to hold my eyebrows, and throughout the day, I would sweat through it and it wouldn’t last. This product is awesome; I’ve had it on my brows for a 9-hour shift and they are still in place! Also I'm glad to say it doesn’t dry and get flaky, nor does it feel uncomfortable on the skin.  I use brow powder and this does NOT effect the look of the powder nor does it smudge it. I will FOREVER buy this product." —Shelby

"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 Boy Brow and it’s half the price! Will definitely repurchase." —Alex

Get it from Amazon for $9.97 (available in six shades, including clear, and combo packs). 

16. A trio of hydrating lip sleeping masks, notably very similar to the Laneige ones (but much more budget-friendly). Each mask nourishes, hydrates, and smooths out your lips overnight, thanks to the berry extract and vitamin C formula — and you get three flavors to try in one set! Your pout will look so supple, it'll leave even Angelina Jolie jealous.

www.amazon.com

For reference, the Laneige lip mask contains 20 grams of product, while each of these measures 5 grams, or 15 grams for the entire set. So even with product sizes taken into account, these are a much better deal!

Promising review: "This is the most moisturizing lip treatment in the market. When my lips started getting dry due to the cold season I was thinking of buying the Laneige lip mask, but it’s soooo expensive. This is a fraction of the cost and feels just the same. Very good product." —Riya

Get it from Amazon for $9.90(available in six combos). 

17. Or a soothing (and also Laneige-similar) Jelly Lip Melt that looks like those delicious Jell-O cups we had as kids — ah, the nostalgia. It'll add some gloss to your lips and leave 'em feeling hydrated and plump all day long.

Amazon, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "If you like the Laneige lip sleeping mask, then get this. In my opinion, this lip melt works even better and stays on my lips way longer! Whenever I used the Laneige mask before bed, I would always wake up feeling like it had all rubbed off and my lips would feel a little dry, but also kinda sticky somehow. With this lip melt, I wake up still feeling like I have the product on my lips, and they feel smooth and hydrated. I also prefer the texture of this lip melt more, and a little product also goes a long way." —Caimish

Get it from Amazon for $9.69+ (available in 10 flavors). 

18. A shampoo bar with strengthening rice water protein that'll not only leave you with clean, luscious locks but also encourage hair growth! Reviewers with thin and fine hair love this bar because they say it makes their hair feel fuller, and it can also help with dryness and brittleness. Plus, if you're in your "save the environment" era, it's vegan, zero waste, and 100% compostable.

Kitsch is an LA-based, self-financed, woman-owned small business established in 2010 that specializes in haircare. 

Promising review: "My forever shampoo! I wanted to use this for a while in order to give it a fair review. I found this just looking for a new shampoo, hating most liquid shampoos and how they make my hair look and feel. I have very long, fine hair and most shampoos just make me a greasy mess within a day or so. This shampoo changed that for me. I shampoo my roots two times a week with this bar and my scalp feels so clean afterward. Much less greasy in between washes now. The bar itself smells great, hasn’t broken apart, and lathers easily. I would suggest 'painting' the bar right on your hair and then lathering instead of trying to lather it in your hands like a bar of soap. Not only does this make my hair look healthier, there is no plastic, and no harmful chemicals in it. Highly recommend giving it a go!!" —Morgan Riddles

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "I have used this product for almost a year now. I use it on my hair and body. It makes everything smell good and everything sparkle. I use it when I have a work shift, and girls night out, a trip to the pool. I do have blonde hair so I have to spray more than my friends with darker hair for it to show up. But hands down smells amazing, and the glitter is so cute." —Avery linhart

20. Glow Recipe's Watermelon Glow, aka a godsend for your pores.

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

Promising review: "I purchased this after I used a trial sized one in a monthly subscription bag. It is the only product that has actually made me hair feel soft in more than 20 years. My hair is long, thin to medium amount, frizzy, incredibly dry (I use conditioner from scalp to ends), and has lots of split ends. This product is pretty pricey, but worth every penny. It has a great light scent also. I will purchase again and really hope they never stop making/selling this product!" —Andrea Dreamer

I followed the directions by applying an extremely light coat first and then immediately after setting that I applied a second coat. They have now been on for a week, no cracks/peels, and that’s even with me submerging my hands in hot water daily whether I’m taking a bath, washing dishes, etc. Highly recommend this item!" —Lauren Styron

25. A bottle of thermal color-changing nail polish because sticking to one color of polish is so blah. Your nails will magically change colors depending on the temp! 

www.amazon.com

Cirque Colors is a small Brooklyn-based business specializing in handmade nail polish and nail accessories. 

Promising review: "My favorite nail polish. I was iffy when I first put it on, it seemed an awkward consistency for nail polish...but I was happily surprised. It is matte and dries super fast and after two coats and 10 minutes they were done. I was going to put topcoat over them for a glossier finish, but I ultimately just left them matte. It goes on and dries beautifully, it changes to purple in cold temperatures, and it DOES NOT CHIP OR PEEL like many thermal nail polishes. I washed dishes, gardened, cleaned, and even without topcoat my nails still look perfect. I will definitely be buying more, they're worth the price." —Samantha Martin

It's great for finishing off your look after heat styling (like with a curling iron or straightener) or helping your hair calm down post-blow-drying. I always keep a bottle in my medicine cabinet!" 

Promising review: "I have straight hair that has frizzies. This oil (never thought I could use an oil!) controls them and makes my hair feel soft. A little goes a long way. I don't use it every wash because I have other products that I want to use up. I already have a backup bottle. Please do not discontinue this product!" —Love Amazon63

27. An exfoliating mitt that buffs away all those dead, dry skin cells with its viscose fiber material, leaving you smooth as butter.

And afterward, your bod will absorb all your moisturizers and lotions even better!

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "Right out of the box I could tell these mitts were going to be exactly what I needed. Excellent quality and easy to use!

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "This is smooth, blends well with foundation, and feels good on the skin. Sets well with powder. I sometimes wear it alone for a little smoother look. Since it's colorless, it doesn't look like foundation. The price is great and I've yet to see it in a store. I like that I can control how much to apply, and a little goes a long way. It appears to wash off well. Will be buying it again." —MB

Promising review: "OMG!!! Most amazing hair treatment I’ve ever used in my entire life. Most hair masks weigh my hair down but since this is a water, it makes it SO soft and bouncy. I’m obsessed and will keep buying. Holy grail." —Natasha

35. A miraculous dark circles concealer that provides medium coverage and lasts for up to 12 hours without feeling heavy or looking cakey — score! It's perfect for when you "accidentally" stayed up until 6 a.m. watching Succession but you can't have your boss knowing, because your tired under-eyes will instead look bright and rested.

Promising review: "I love this makeup! I only wish I'd found it sooner. I use it as a concealer for dark circles. It is very easy to apply and blend, and while it provides good coverage, it doesn't feel or look heavy. I've added it to my daily routine following moisturizer, even on 'low makeup' days where I'm really only slapping on mascara and lip gloss." —cav6

Get it from Amazon for $8.80+ (available in 18 shades).

36. An adorable TonyMoly exfoliating stick for removing whiteheads, blackheads, and excess sebum. You can just rinse it off with warm water when you're done, so no need to buy those costly one-time-use pore strips!

Promising review: "After just two days of use, this adorable little octopus has done wonders for me, smells great too. Here's how I used it: I wore down the stick just a little to where the texture from the salt is visible, scrubbed around on my face so there was plenty of product, then I used my fingers to gently massage all the gunk away. Rinse, pat dry, and enjoy the softness. Highly recommended for people with sensitive skin like me." —LuckLocust

Get it from Amazon for $12.50. 

37. Maple Holistics biotin shampoo that nourishes your scalp so your locks can grow in thicker than ever with its keratin, rosemary oil, tea tree oil, and — of course — biotin formula. If your hair is thinning, this stuff can be transformative over time.

Maple Holistics is a small business that specializes in skincare and haircare made from naturally derived ingredients.

Promising review: "I was skeptical of the results since I have androgenic alopecia due to a hormonal imbalance, but my hair is actually growing back!!! I have been taking biotin and zinc supplements alongside spironolactone, and nothing worked until I got this shampoo. If you've tried everything else and nothing worked, try this shampoo!! I have been using it for approximately two months now and have about almost an inch of new hair growth." —Krystal L

Get it in a value size from Amazon for $12.95 (available in three scents and larger sizes).

38. O'Keeffe's hand cream, a tried-and-true savior for extremely dry, cracked hands. It's a concentrated moisturizer (unscented and non-greasy!) that'll actually keep 'em hydrated instead of wearing off after an hour. 

www.amazon.com

For best results, you should apply the cream after washing your hands, after showering, and at bedtime.

Promising review: "I didn’t think it could work as well as everyone said it did. My BF has working man hands and they crack and are very painful. I wanted to get him something to ease that and I immediately remembered hearing of this brand. They didn’t disappoint! He noticed a HUGE difference within the first use! It really does take so little to coat your hands that it’ll last a while! We’ll most certainly be repeat customers!" —HSmomma

Get it from Amazon for $9.25 (also available in a pack of two or 12).

39. A skin solution that can be used anywhere you routinely remove hair, whether that be your 'pits or down there. 🤫 Use it right after shaving or waxing to get rid of bumps, ingrown hairs, and rashes. 

www.amazon.com

Promising review: "I was very surprised by how well this product works. I’ve been using it once a day every day for the past month and it really has made a difference. Exfoliating wasn’t enough for my skin and I don’t like to sit there pulling out my ingrown hairs. It smells like alcohol but I was very surprised by how it leaves my skin. It does not dry it out, leaves it moisturized and my ingrowns have been reducing." —Krystle

Get it from Amazon for $19.99+ (available in two sizes).

40. Cruelty-free Thank Me Later eyeshadow primer to make your eyeshadow *pop* and enhance the color. It also combats oil and prevents creasing, and reviewers say their eye makeup lasts all day thanks to it! It's comparable to MAC Paint Pot, but your bank account will ~thank me later~ if you get this one. 

www.amazon.com

Promising reviews: "This is the best eyeshadow primer I have ever purchased! I was on the fence as other primers have left my eyes feeling sticky or heavy, and after long periods of time I still tend to get creases. Not with this primer. A little goes a long way with this primer. It lasts all day, and I have even gone to work a few times still wearing 'last night's makeup' because it holds so well. I am amazed with the quality for the price — and even though the tube is small it has lasted me a little over a year since I only have to use such small amounts." —nasty-otter

"I stopped wearing eyeshadow for about two years because I couldn’t get it to stop creasing and just gave up. I tried Mac’s Paint Pot and the Urban Decay eye primer and neither of them worked for me. I’ve used this eye primer for a week with both matte eyeshadow and glitter looks and it’s been wonderful!!! I have dry skin but VERY oily eyelids and I always get the eyelid creases that take the shadow away and make it look bad. I’m very very very impressed and so happy to be wearing eyeshadow again! I put a tiny amount on my finger, spread it on my whole eyelid, wait a minute for it to dry, tap out any creasing, powder it, and then put the shadow on." —Tim

Get it from Amazon for $13.99.

41. A powerful 2% BHA salicylic acid exfoliant that helps remove dead skin, shrink and unclog pores, and smooth wrinkles. Soooo many reviewers rave about it clearing their acne and reducing breakouts too. Talk about benefits on top of benefits!

www.amazon.com

Promising review: "This product helped clear my skin after I struggled with many other products. I was struggling with what I thought was milia on my forehead. I have tried exfoliating with all sorts of different products. I read a review on Reddit and thought I would give it a try. So glad I did. I put this on and saw results in on night. I honestly love how well this product worked for me." —Nicole

Get it from Amazon for $13.30+ (available in three sizes).
