“This quickly absorbing revitalizing toner makes an excellent foundation for your skincare routine,” says Valerie Aparovich, certified cosmetologist-esthetician at OnSkin. It’s packed with some of her favorite ingredients like vitamin C and niacinamide as well as essential extracts from fruits to not only cleanse your skin but enhance the tone, correct dark spots, balance sebum, and reveal an overall glowing complexion.

“This cleansing brush is designed to provide deeper cleansing and more thorough grime removal from the skin’s surface,” Aparovich says. It features two types of silicone bristles — a coarser brush to deeply cleanse the T-zone, and a fine brush for gentle exfoliation on the rest of the face. It slightly heats up when it’s in use, which promotes blood circulation for a more sculpted face. And it has five modes to adjust to the different parts of your face.

“Not only can using this scalp massage brush relax your scalp and relieve muscle tension in the area, but it also helps distribute shampoo over your scalp for a more efficient thick hair washing and eliminates product and dead cell build-up,” explains Aparovich. It comes with two interchangeable brush heads, one with long conical bristles for shampoo application or wet cleansing, and one with short rounded bristles for dry brushing and massaging.

“Gently gliding gua sha along facial massage lines helps ease muscle tension, stimulate blood circulation, activate lymphatic drainage, reduce puffiness, and even out the complexion,” explains Aparovich. “Massaging your under-the-eye with a jade roller will help reduce fluid stagnation, alleviate puffiness, and bring you a brighter, well-rested look.”

Both of these pieces are carved from natural jade stone to calm your skin and remove the look of tension and fatigue on your face. Plus, the brand recommends keeping it in the refrigerator for an even deeper contour and cooling sensation when using.

Another often forgotten step in your skincare routine is exfoliating your lips. “Lips require gentle exfoliation like the rest of the skin to look smooth and groomed,” Aparovich says. She recommends these double-sided silicone brushes that can be used alone or with a lip scrub to remove dead skin and soften, smooth, and soothe your lips. Not only is this step great for your overall lip health, but exfoliated lips make for a much more even foundation for your makeup.

“There is so much bacteria on sponges and towels,” says master esthetician Limor Weinberg. That’s why she recommends you use these disposable Clean Skin Club towelettes on your face. They can be used for everything — cleansing, drying, removing makeup or face masks, you name it. And they can be tossed out after each use to ensure you’re only touching your face with clean, bacteria-free towels every time. “Trust me when I say it is absolutely worth it to make the switch,” Weinberg continues.

“This go-to makes your lips look and feel fabulous!,” Weinberg says. Packed with vitamin C, coconut oil, shea butter, and a berry fruit complex, the classic Laneige lip mask can be worn at night while you sleep “to keep your lips hydrated” or during the day for a “juicy, gloss effect.” It not only nourishes, hydrates, and soothes but also creates a barrier on your lips to lock in moisture and prevent future aggravation.

On days you don’t feel like washing your hair, Ghanima Abdullah, cosmetologist at therighthairstyles.com, recommends swapping out your dry shampoo for this tapioca one. “Most dry shampoos can plug the hair follicles due to containing ingredients like clay or talc,” she explains. But this one uses tapioca instead, which is better for scalp health. The tapioca absorbs oil, dirt, and general buildup from your roots and ends while the rice starch adds volume to keep your hair looking clean and fresh.

“If you use makeup, you need decent brushes for it to go on well,” says Abdullah. “Try a brush set like this one.” She loves the flat kabuki brush for blush and the slanted brushes for highlighter. This 16-piece set also includes a couple eyeshadow blending brush, a foundation brush, and an eyelash brush with soft, dense bristles. There’s also a bonus eyebrow razor to keep your brows sculpted and face fuzz-free.

“If you're going out, don't forget to set your makeup with a shimmery spray,” Abdullah says. “It brings so much beauty to your face and isn't over the top.” This setting spray has a super lightweight formula that keeps your makeup in place while adding a subtle shimmer. It’s infused with hyaluronic acid, cucumber water, and more to be compatible with dry, oily, and combination skin.

“I rely on ZitSticka KILLA to combat deep and early-stage blemishes,” says Victoria Waked, head of US training at Dr. med. Christine Schramek. “Not only does it expedite healing and flattening, but it also discreetly conceals while protecting and soothing my very sensitive skin.” These pimple patches feature 24 microdarts that gently pierce the surface of the skin to deliver powerful hydrocolloid acid directly to the source of the up-and-coming pimple to curb progress and improve the look of redness in as little as two hours.

Celebrity hairstylist Laurie Heaps loves this conditioner for its silky texture, detangling properties, and purple pigment that neutralizes your blonde or gray hair. “The conditioner is a game-changer,” she says. “Not only does it effortlessly tone any brassiness, but it also leaves my client's hair incredibly conditioned.” It’s packed with notes of blueberry, blackberry, and raspberry as well as milk proteins and violet pigments to brighten your color and leave your hair looking — and smelling — great.

“The shampoo is equally impressive,” says Heaps. “One of my favorite features is its ability to combat any unwanted brassy or orange tones.” Like the coordinating conditioner, this shampoo is also infused with berries and milk protein as well as mango extract and violet pigments to neutralize unwanted yellow or green tones in your blonde or gray hair that’s commonly cause by pollution or chlorine. It gets super lathery when you’re in the shower and has a delicious berry scent.

“Get ready for some lip action with Appleberry Lip Oil – a must-have in your purse arsenal!” says Kristin Gunn, celebrity esthetician. “It's not just hydrating; it's the marathon runner of lip tints, promising you long-lasting color that's here to stay.” This lip stain goes on smooth and silky to give you a plump, luxurious gloss without leaving that sticky or tacky feeling of other lip products. It’s infused with apple water, raspberry extract, and vitamins that moisturize and hydrate while giving your lips a perfectly subtle tint that lasts all day long.

“Nighttime light [...] can lead to poor sleep as well as skin issues like dryness or acne,” Gunn explains. Using a sleep mask like this super comfortable one can block 100% of light to help you get a deeper, more satisfying sleep. It has built-in donut-shaped eye cups that you can adjust to fit directly over your eyes to reduce unwanted pressure and allow you to blink without disruption. Plus, the material is soft, breathable, and has an adjustable strap to fit snug but cozy.

Gunn calls the eye mask the “silk pillowcase’s partner-in-crime,” so of course your beauty sleep needs a silk pillowcase, too. Made of 22 momme, 100% Mulberry silk, this affordable set of pillowcases are soft, silky, and cooling, which can help to reduce frizzy hair and split ends while preventing creases and redness on your face.

Packed with witch hazel, aloe vera, and cucumber extract, Gunn loves this toner for all its hydration, soothing, and blemish-fighting properties. “Cucumber and witch hazel are like a power couple battling blemishes and telling pores to behave. This is an important step in skin health a lot of people miss,” she notes. Toner resets the Ph level of your skin after cleansing.” The brand claims this toner removes impurities, smoothes texture, evens skin tone, hydrates, and shrinks the look of pores to reveal overall glowing skin. Plus, it doesn’t use alcohol, so it’s gentler and safer for sensitive skin.

“NOVEHA tea tree oil eyelid & lash wipes are packed with wrinkle fighting, hydrating ingredients,” Gunn explains. “Think of these wipes as your sidekick for makeup removal and skin TLC.” With aloe vera, hyaluronic acid, tea tree oil, chamomile, and green tea, these wipes not only expertly remove new and built-up makeup, but also soothe, refresh, hydrate, and calm your eyes and surrounding skin.

Master stylist and salon founder Yvey Valcin says, “This argan oil with moringa oil blend from CHI is not only is it perfect for heat styling as it has built-in heat protection. It's also a great product to soften beard texture.” Though it’s packed with moisturizers, it still retains a lightweight texture that won’t weigh down your hair or leave a greasy residue. The built-in heat protection prevents thermal styling damage and naturally found UV rays to not only add shine but also moisturize and rejuvenate damaged hair.

This splurge-worthy sponge has a pointed tip for contours and corners, a rounded edge for neck and cheekbones, and a flat bottom for blendable coverage everywhere else. Plus, the pore-like texture applies without absorbing, so all your makeup ends up on your face — not on the blender.

When it’s time to clean your makeup sponge or brushes, Devine loves this best-selling vegan shampoo. It’s powerful enough to remove makeup, dirt, oil and other potentially acne-causing bacteria, while staying gentle enough to maintain your brush’s shape and structure. Simply dampen with warm water, massage a small amount of shampoo into the brush, and rinse thoroughly until water runs clear.

Create the perfect wing with these disposable eyeliner brushes that Devine recommends. They have a super fine 8-millimeter pointed end that makes drawing on a smooth, delicate eyeliner stroke way easier. Plus each disposable brush comes with a plastic sleeve so you can bring them with you for touchups no matter where you are.

After nine applications, the brand claims it can brighten your smile up to 10 shades. The kit comes with whitening gel and an LED light accelerator to remove wine, coffee, smoking, soda, and food stains from your teeth.

Dr. Nosworthy She loves this hair control paste for four reasons: “1) No white cast 2) Great shine 3) No heavy residue 4) Strong hold without hardening the hair.

Board-certified dermatologist Dr. Marisa Garshick loves this mineral sunscreen. Not only does it protect your skin from UVA, UVB and blue light, but she notes it “also contains hyaluronic acid and bio-designed collagen to help boost moisture, helping to hydrate and plump the skin” without a white cast. It has an SPF of 30 and is so lightweight it can be worn daily by itself or underneath makeup for extra protection.

“Tried and true, this drugstore favorite not only helps to lock moisture in, but also provides a protective barrier helping to protect the skin from external irritants, making it a good option for lips, hands and dry or cracked skin,” says Dr. Garshick.

Vaseline has been a favorite for decades because it’s proven to do one thing expertly well: lock in moisture and heal your skin. Whether you have cracked hands in the winter, chapped lips in the summer, or itchy areas from chronic conditions, just apply some petroleum jelly at night — or anytime throughout the day — and it speeds up the hydrating and healing process.

No wonder it’s the number one bestseller in Amazon’s “face moisturizers” category.

Use a pearl-sized amount of this lightweight cream after toner and serum on your under eyes once a day for best results.

It’s super lightweight and goes on seamlessly and easily without leaving any kind of thick or greasy residue, which makes it great to wear alone to hydrate or underneath makeup.

From fan-favorite brand Neutrogena, this moisturizer is recommended for those with dry to very dry skin, as it deeply penetrates the deep beneath the skin’s surface for utmost hydration that will have your skin plump and glowing in no time. Wear it alone or underneath makeup — either way, your skin will thank you.

They’re soaked in green tea extract and 2% salicylic acid to not only expertly cleanse, but also balance your skin’s natural pH, calm commonly found irritation, and smooth to reveal glowing skin.

It’s made with 30 plant-based ingredients such as raspberry oil that soothes and moisturizes, and sweet white lupine that protects from blue light. This sunscreen is slightly tinted to give you a sun kissed glow while minimizing any lingering white cast. You can wear it alone or beneath makeup as a skin-protecting primer.

It has a wooden base with a canvas strap that makes it easy to hold and move over your skin and, when used regularly, it can promote blood circulation, improve tone, and exfoliate.

Second, it comes in three shades to customize to your natural skin tone, and can be used on both the face and body for an all-over beachy tan.

“This is perfect for the girls who have lash extensions,” Capparelli says, because of the built-in contoured pads that elevate the mask from your eyes so it won’t put pressure on or crease your lashes. It’s made with plush memory foam that’s lightweight, breathable, and super comfy to sleep in. It blocks light in all directions and has an adjustable head strap to ensure a snug fit.
