2. Essence's Drop of Sunshine Bronzing Drops, aka the more affordable version of the beloved $39 Drunk Elephant version. This buildable, hydrating formula is an easy way to add a ~sunkissed touch~ your beauty routine without breaking the bank (or compromising your skin!). 

www.amazon.com, Amazon

Promising review: "I love this so I ordered a second for backup! Depending on my day I will add no more than one or two drops to my moisturizer or my primer. Takes away the winter pallor of my face which definitely has not had enough sun lately. The bottle is small, but you don’t need to use much. Reasonably priced for the amount. I would say buy it." —Incognito

Get it from Amazon for $5.99

3. Mixsoon Bean SPF 50 Sunscreen with an ~airy~ texture, making this K-beauty staple perfect for anyone who loves a good SPF but hates the icky sticky feeling of it. This feather-light, hydrating sunscreen plays so well with makeup that it's about to become the primer of your ✨dreams✨.

www.amazon.com, Amazon

Here's what BuzzFeeder Elizabeth Lilly has to say about this: "I'm obsessed with this! It's what I'm currently using because my skin has become so dry because I'm on Accutane. And the cast-iron heat in my apartment sure doesn't help. This oil foams up on my loofah ASAP and my skin look and feels more moisturized than with any other body washes or shower oils. Also, as with all SDJ scents, it smells divine." 

Promising review: "This is a beautiful scent. My skin pulls the floral aspect of this fragrance. It lathers well and made my skin very moisturized coming out the shower (which is great, in my opinion, because I have extremely sensitive dry skin). I ordered a small jar to try it out and now I want the larger size." —LaKeya

Amazon

Promising review: "I have been searching for a brown mascara, and this is it! It’s the best mascara I have used in a long time. Goes on easily without clumping. Lifts and separates my lashes. I’m so happy with it! I set up a subscribe and save so I don’t run out!" —jeanielemo

Get it from Amazon for$15.99.   

12. Dae's Hair Cactus Fruit 3-In-1 Styling Cream & Taming Wand, which is basically the brand's "holy grail," TikTok-famous styling cream in the form of a mascara wand. This versatile lil' tool helps you carefully target flyaways, style edges, and smooth frizz.

14. Medicube Deep Vitamin C Golden Capsule Face Moisturizer is a K-beauty staple that's almost a little *too* fun to use — it comes with liposome capsules you can pop on your skin, helping oxidize, brighten, and smooth your complexion with the added burst of concentrated vitamin C and niacinamide. This is designed to have both instant *and* lasting results, with many reviewers noting an immediate difference in skin's radiance after the first use! 

Amazon, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "This moisturizer is one of the nicest feeling moisturizers ever. The appearance of the vitamin C capsules inside the gel goop on TikTok enticed me to purchase it for myself. This moisturizer has a gel like consistency and comes with a scooper, making it very easy to apply. You get a decent sized jar of moisturizer for the price, and the moisturizer is pretty thick. Although it is sticky, I would say it absorbs in your skin pretty quickly. It may leave a slight sticky residue left behind, but I think overall it is amazing for all skin types. After using this in the a.m. before sunscreen, I noticed my skin really glow and feel smooth! I had gifted a jar to my 60 year old mother and she had told me how her skin felt like a baby’s bum the next morning!" —tracey + kiwi

It is soft, sweet, and delicious at the same time, and so well-balanced and alluring that I'm like, girl, please. Stop sniffing yourself in public. 

Emma Lord/BuzzFeed

Touchland is a small business that specializes in hydrating hand sanitizers and body and hair mists. 

Touchland sent me samples of all of the scents in the Power Essence line, and I've truly never been more impressed by body mists. I'm not a big perfume wearer because I am incredibly picky and find a lot of scents too overpowering, or detect something ~off~ about the way they settle that I can't explain. But this collection of lightweight, scrumptious, and creative scents was just full of hit after hit. Peachy Lychee is my absolute favorite right now because it just feels like it bottled up the smell of happiness. Every time I put it on I get a lil' spring in my step!! (But vanilla-loving friends — you do NOT want to sleep on the Vanilla Velvet scent, either!) 

Get it from Amazon for $20 (available in eight scents).

Get it from Amazon for $5.99

18. Maybelline Super Stay Teddy Lip Tintgives you an oh-so-pillowy matte pout that refuses! to! quit! no matter what you throw at it during the day. Reviewers mention that this is a great "everyday" matte, giving a velvety, well-pigmented look without being too dramatic. 

www.amazon.com

Promising review: "I have been on a hunt for The Lipstick for my 20-plus years of wearing makeup. Regular lipstick comes off in minutes because I'm chugging water all day. Matte long stay just settles into every lip crack and looks terrible. This is the first and only long-stay lipstick that doesn't settle into cracks and dry down. I think because it's a slightly thicker consistency — not quite glossy, more like a thick balm so it glides over lip cracks. I have just about every color — I'm really hoping they come out with a rusty red." —Kate Lynch 

Get it from Amazon for$9.97+ (available in ten shades). 

19. First Aid Beauty's Facial Radiance Pads, a set of compostable (!!) beauty prep pads you can use before putting on makeup to gently tone and exfoliate your skin, making it the ultimate primer for getting the most out of your foundation.

"As I’m aging, my skin is changing and feels a little rougher. I saw these on TikTok and thought I’d give them a try and was not disappointed. I use this when I get out of the shower to really help scrub away and dead skin, and it does leave my face feeling smoother. It is a bit pricey, but I feel like it did last me a while." —Emily Bianca 

Get a set of 28 from Amazon for$16.82

www.amazon.com

Promising review: "I don't write a lot of reviews, but I have been looking for something like this mask for a very long time! My skin is glowing! I left it on all night, and now it's mid-day, and my skin still looks and feels amazing, even with makeup over it! I love this brand and all its products! I'm 46 and trying to fight aging, and Corsx is the most cost-effective and gives the best results! This mask was thick, stayed on all night and I'm a side sleeper, and I woke up to what felt like new skin! It's amazing! For the price, it's definitely worth it!!!" —Babe03

Get a pack of three from Amazon for$15

www.amazon.com, Amazon

Promising review: "Love these drops. So effective, a little goes a long way. Great for a boost of hydration, especially in the colder and/or drier months. Great as a primer before makeup to smooth the skin. Such a value for a product that packs a punch. My skin hasn't looked better!" —Ken

Amazon

Promising review: "I am LOVING this 'ONE AND DONE' product. I'd watched a few videos about how wonderful having this dual-ended item was; blush on one side, bronzer on the other. I needed something easy for travel, and I love creamy textures, so I thought I'd try them. WOW; I'm in love. They glide across the skin, blend out, and look very natural. The value is fantastic compared to other dual-ended makeup sticks. The smell is light and a touch tropical." —Vanessa Sykes

In just a few weeks you can see the visible difference in my skin. It’s beautifully hydrated and glowy! It’s reducing the appearance of my fine lines, and has improved elasticity. I like the way it smells ... it kind of smells like tea. It’s pricier than some, but a lot cheaper than others. And I’ve found that a little bit of moisturizer goes a long way with this stuff. It feels luxurious on my skin, and I truly feel pampered!" —Rene Lightner
