1. Eos Cashmere Body Oil if you’re a fan of the intoxicatingly rich smell of the brand’s Vanilla Cashmere lotion but want an even more hydration-drenching product. This oil helps you get some glowy, moisturized skin, and even though it’s super nourishing, it’s designed to feel “weightless” and not greasy.
Amazon
Promising review: “I am obsessed with this! From the first pump, you can tell this isn’t your average body oil. It has a silky, lightweight texture that absorbs beautifully into the skin without leaving that greasy, sticky feeling some oils do. My skin instantly feels soft, smooth, and nourished. The scent is luxurious and comforting — soft, slightly sweet, and just the right amount of fragrance that lingers without being overpowering. It truly lives up to the ‘cashmere’ name — my skin feels pampered and velvety all day long. I especially love using it right after a shower; it locks in moisture and gives my skin a subtle glow. It’s also perfect for layering under lotion for that extra hydration boost during dry seasons.” —The Curious Vine
Get it from Amazon for $12.98 (also available as a shave oil!).
2. Mielle’s (TikTok-famous) Rosemary Mint strengthening oil infused with biotin to help invigorate the scalp and enhance circulation, meaning it’s helping you get closer to the long, healthy hair of your dreams. These drops can help do it all: condition your dry scalp, smooth split ends, and nourish hair follicles. So many reviewers swear this product helped them get stronger, thicker, and healthier overall locks that strangers can’t stop complimenting!
According to the Cleveland Clinic, some researchers have found rosemary oil to be as effective at encouraging hair growth as Rogaine! And read more about how biotin could help with the fullness of hair.
Promising reviews: “Legit magic in a bottle. Wish I could order this stuff by the gallon. Took a chance on this because I was desperate, having already spent so much money on luxury and drugstore products with little results. I use this as a pre-treatment on scalp and ends before I wash hair. Scalp has improved dramatically. I feel like there’s not as much breakage/fallout, and my ends are fuller. (This is after like six months, but my scalp was better immediately.)” —Claire Blanchard
“I hardly write reviews but this one deserves to be written about!! My hair was falling out a LOT, and somehow just with the FIRST application onwards, I started seeing less fall. And now, after four months, I can see hair growth as well, and my hair is already looking thicker!! And I’ve been using it only once a week, just a few drops and massaging in. Omg, how can anything be so simple and yet so effective!!! Amazing! Amazing!!! Whoever invented this…hats off!!” —Dee
Get it from Amazon for $8.97.
3. A lightweight gel cream from Nivea with Q10 (an antioxidant your body naturally makes), hyaluronic acid, and vitamin C that reviewers say can help tighten, plump, and moisturize skin. If you rub this on your body twice a day, you may start to see firmer skin in as little as two weeks — some reviewers even say they could see a difference in their skin in just days!
The brand recommends applying twice a day for best results!
Read more about how Q10 benefits the skin from the National Library of Medicine.
Promising review: “I’ve been using this for a few years and love it! I had loose skin after losing weight, and this gel has been a game-changer, with noticeable improvement in my skin’s texture and firmness in just a few weeks. I use this gel on my thighs, stomach, and underarms. I pair it with Nivea’s body lotion for the rest of my body. A little bit goes a long way, so the bottle lasts a while. I switched over to another gel for a month a bit ago, and I noticed my skin returning to uneven firmness and texture. Once I went back to using this product, I noticed improvements within a few weeks again. So, this isn’t a cure, but with continuous use, results are maintained to keep my skin firm, moisturized, and even textured.” —Morgan
Get it from Amazon for $15.19.
4. Laneige’s Neo Blurring Powder, which has been popping up on everyone’s feeds for a good reason — this powder can smooth the appearance of your skin, blur pores, AND absorb oil! The compact design makes it so easy to pop in your bag and bring with you for any on-the-go touch-ups, taking away the day’s grease but never your ✨ glow.✨
Check out a TikTok of the Laneige Neo Blurring Powder in action.
Promising review: “I loved this setting powder, it blurred my pores and blended my makeup so well that even my husband noticed. Wow! I will be buying more before people find it and sell it all out, hehehe.” —Charlotte Laim
Get it from Amazon for $22.50.
5. Clinique Almost Lipstick Tinted Lip Balm in Pink Honey that’s a pinker shade of the fan-fave Black Honey, if you prefer to buy things a touch more Glinda-approved. Just like the original, the “rosy one” is made to be flexible and adapt beautifully to your skin tone.
Amazon
Promising review: “This lip color is a fantastic, no-fuss lip product for those who want a natural, effortless look. It offers the best of both worlds— hydrating balm and a hint of color — making it ideal for daily wear. It’s perfect for those looking for a low-maintenance, lightweight lip option with a natural finish. While it may not be the longest-lasting product, its comfort and versatility make it a great addition to any beauty routine.” —Nest & Nickel
Get it from Amazon for $25 (also available in the OG Black Honey!).
6. A pore-clearing cleansing oil formulated to get *deep* into your skin and visibly remove makeup, blackheads, and impurities while helping to reduce excess sebum and oil production. It’s also hypoallergenic and non-irritating for any sensitive skin baddies. One reviewer said they were shocked at how much gunk came out of their clogged pores after just one use!
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 reviews: “BEST OIL CLEANSER I SWEAR. I’ve gone through 3–4 bottles now and it continues to cleanse my skin AMAZING. It melts makeup, clears pores. Honestly a heaven-send. The first time I used it, it cleared a lot of my sebum and even now when I use it, it clears any dead skin and dirt I have, even when I don’t wear makeup. BUY IT, it’s amazing.” —rexichor
“Got it because it was all over my TikTok and I wanted to try the double cleansing. And wow, I don’t regret it, it’s amazing!!!! Leaves my skin so soft and so hydrated. I use it before my water base cleanser and it has helped me reduce my breakouts. I love the texture, the smell is very subtle (you can barely smell it) and I just love it.” —Linette González
Get it from Amazon for $17.
7. Catrice “Instant Awake” Under Eye Brightener that’ll color-correct and brighten your under-eyes so no one knows how long you stayed up streaming Netflix last night. The hyaluronic acid and shea butter–based formula helps it blend in so smoothly that you won’t feel like you’re wearing several layers of makeup — or look cakey.
Promising review: “Took years off my eyes! This product is so reasonably priced. I came across a TikTok promoting this and decided to take a chance since the price was super reasonable. My eyes looked brighter in a good way, and the concealer worked so well that I felt I looked younger. I got compliments from friends asking what I did differently with my makeup. I recommend it.” —Placeholder
Get it from Amazon for $6 (available in five shades).
8. Plus, Good Molecules Yerba Mate Wake Up Eye Gel to help with depuffing and brightening your under-eyes. This light, cooling gel has caffeine to help reduce swelling and hyaluronic acid to help plump and firm, so no one will know how long you put off your bedtime last night.
You can read more about the skincare benefits of caffeine at the Cleveland Clinic.
Good Molecules is a small business that specializes in affordable skincare products.
Promising review: “I love this product and have noticed a huge difference when using it consistently. I am on the younger side and don’t have the worst under-eye bags, but on those occasional mornings when my eyes are puffy with somewhat visible dark circles, this product definitely does the trick! Honestly, I love all the Good Molecules products.” —Hayden Smith
Get it from Amazon for $5.97.
9. A curved SPF 50 Airy Sunstick Smoothing Bar I promise won’t be as miserable of an experience as getting lubed up with freezing, oily sunscreen by your mom like when you were kid. This lightweight stick makes including that crucial SPF in your daily routine easier: Just glide the clear formula over your face (or body), and it won’t leave you feeling oily or greasy.
Note that the AAD recommends using at least SPF 30 and reapplying as needed for skin protection. You can read about sunscreen myths and facts from dermatologists for more information!
Promising review: “NO WHITE CAST! I’ve been looking for a stick sunscreen and this was just exactly what was needed!! I’m a medium-toned Black [person] and looking for something without a white cast is always a challenge. I have applied it on my bare skin and there isn’t a white cast at all! It’s a ‘soft matte’ finish, for sure, and looks like natural skin. Like you’re not wearing anything at all.” —Martina
Get it from Amazon for $20.90.
10. Lilac St. Original Lashes if you want the low-effort routine of lash extensions without the frequent, expensive touch-up appointments. They’re just as easy to apply as mascara is, but will last way longer (up to 10 days)!
Check out why these are a fave in this TikTok.
Lilac St. is a woman- and AAPI-owned BTW!
Promising review: “Y’all, I have been a loyal Lilac St. customer since they started, and I will never leave them. These are the absolute best quality. I get so many compliments. They are the most natural and most comfortable to wear. I use several times by using makeup remover and water to remove any glue. Seriously will never stray.” —Katiew
Get the starter kit from Amazon for $19 (includes two sets of Original lashes, lash glue, and an applicator).
11. Or E.l.f’s Lash Xtndr Tubing Mascara that’ll dramatically lengthen your lashes with a flake- and smudge-resistant formula. The mascara forms “tubes” around your lashes to mimic the look of a falsie without the glue (or required patience), so it’ll look like you were one of God’s favorites even if you weren’t naturally blessed with long lashes. And all you have to do is swipe it off at the end of the night — no aggressive rubbing required.
Check out a TikTok of the E.l.f. tubing mascara in action.
BuzzFeed Shopping writer Emma Lord is a fan: “I am not a new human to the tubing mascara game, and in fact readily spent $26 on the famous OG blend from Blinc every time it needed replacing. I didn’t even love it for the length half as much as the fact that tubing mascara like this genuinely never smudges, but can I just say — regardless of price, the E.l.f. tubing mascara formula blows all the others I’ve tried out of the water. It gives me way more length and volume than other brands, slides on so much more easily, stays put ALL day, and never, ever smudges. My favorite part, though, is how gently and easily it comes off with soap and water. In the past, other mascara removals have felt rough on my lashes, but this comes off so fast that I’m like ??? was I even wearing mascara a minute ago?? Anyway, I hesitate even writing this review because I want to gatekeep the hell out of this before it sells out, but the world needed to know. I’m a big fan of the brown shade (which is what I’m wearing above!), but it also comes in black and soft black.”
Get it from Amazon for $8 (available in three shades).
12. A 5-in-1 Edgelift Curl Brush with a grooved design that helps separate and smooth curls so you have one less step in your hair routine — just twist the brush’s grooves into your wet curls to create well-defined clumps without any frizz. Reviewers say they were *shocked* by how it glided through their hair like butter and left their curls looking.
It’s designed for every hair type longer than 3 inches. Reviewers with 2b, 3c, and 4a hair types mention that it worked for them!
Bounce Curl is a small business that specializes in curl brushes.
Former Buzzfeeder Heather Braga uses this brush: “I’ve bought this brush after seeing it used on Love Island USA and have been testing it ever since. It’s super simple to use and I can see how easily the edges separate out my wavy hair. I’m still playing around with which product will hold the waves/curls best, but the brush itself leaves me with fantastic waves just from using it on my wet hair!”
Promising review: “Best brush hands down, I am a mixed girl with thick curly hair, and when I run this brush through my hair wet, it does magic. My curls are amazing after using this in the shower to detangle, then I use my choice of product to style it row by row, and it gives me bouncy curls that help cover more scalp but separate effectively. It’s extremely sturdy. I break brushes all the time, and this one lasts!!!” —Janay K
Get it from Amazon for $30 (available in five colors).
13. Mise En Scene Perfect Serum in case you’re looking to add some sleek shine to your locks. It’s packed with seven nourishing oils, including argan, jojoba, and marula, for moisture and protection from breakage, tangles, and heat damage — there’s a reason they call it “the perfect serum”! FYI, you can use this oil for up to 446 degrees of heat protection. Sold!
It’s suitable for all hair types! Reviewers with everything from straight, fine hair to thick, curly hair said it worked for them.
Check out a TikTok of the serum in action.
Promising review: “Literally, the best hair product you can possibly get that is affordable and doesn’t leave your hair greasy — it makes it shiny and super soft. After I get out of the shower, when my hair is still damp, I put some on my ends and work the rest up into the top of my head. Sometimes I blow my hair dry after I get out of the shower and put it on, and then after I blow dry it, I put it on some more, and it looks absolutely beautiful — no greasy hair here. My hair type is fine and gets oily really fast, and yet somehow this product tames it a bit and keeps it looking healthy for days! Will purchase again and again!!!” —Tara Klein
Get it from Amazon for $17.88+ (available in two sizes and five other formulas).
14. Medicube’s dual-textured toner pads formulated with the top dogs when it comes to exfoliation, including BHA and AHA to dive deep in your pores. With just a wipe at the end of the night, these pads can help minimize the look of enlarged pores, smooth skin, and minimize oil production. Even reviewers with dry, sensitive skin said these worked wonders!
Promising review: “So this product is completely worth the money. The quality is amazing. I didn’t notice any smell after a few seconds of using it. My skin was smooth and bright but not sticky. It works like magic. I have sensitive skin, so I can’t use this product too close to my nose, but in the rest, it’s amazing!” —Isabela L
Get a 70-pack from Amazon for $18.90 (available in five other styles).
15. A hair identifier spray to help make dermaplaning your face easier by showing you exactly where the hair is. Even if it looks a little wacky to spray this product on your face, it’s super easy to wash off and won’t leave behind any weird residue after you’re done.
It comes with one bottle of hair identifier spray and four razors!
Promising review: “The power of the hair identifier’s spray is unmatched. Once you spray in any direction that has hair, it automatically identifies the hair that needs to be removed. It is easily sprayed on and easily wiped off. No extra residue. Comes with four blades, and I say these blades are soft and gentle yet get the job done. Not sure why no one ever thought of coming up with a hair identifier spray. Great value and smells like baby powder. Great quality.” —Karine
Get it from Amazon for $9.49.
16. Exfoliating mitts made to remove dead skin and unclog pores in an oddly satisfying way. Its ability to ~deeply~ exfoliate your skin may even deliver smoother, softer results than loofahs and chemical exfoliants can. And if you happen to be a self-tanning stan, this is the perfect prep for a smooth base to get a sun-kissed glow without the harmful UV rays.
Seraphic Skincare is a small business!
Promising review: “If you’re trying to find something for body exfoliation…this is it. Just this glove, water, and some time. I soaked in the bathtub for about 10 minutes, then got to exfoliating.” —Kari Shawhan
Get it from Amazon for $9.99+ (available in eight colors and as a two-pack).
17. Philips Norelco OneBlade Intimate razor if you’re looking for a trimming or shaving solution that doesn’t irritate the heck out of your skin. This electric razor will become your shaving BFF, as it easily removes unwanted body hair in or out of the shower — *and* with or without foam!
See a TikTok review of the shaver here! For best results, the brand recommends stretching your skin with one hand, laying the blade flat, and then shaving against the grain.
Promising review: “I tell everyone about this! No nicks, cuts, or razor bumps! The battery life is surprisingly long, too! I use this ALL over my body. Trust me when I tell you it saves you time and pain compared to a normal razor!! Seriously, never going back to a plastic one after this!” —Holly
Get it from Amazon for $29.96.
18. Color Wow’s One-Minute Transformation cream so you can look like you just came from a six-hour reparative session at the salon, but no — this hair magic took place in just 60 seconds. This one-step cream boasts a big game: It’s designed to smooth frizz, banish bedhead, recondition hair, and erase any dents. Just trust the brand’s name that you’ll be saying “WOW” in the mirror in no time.
Check out one person trying it for themselves on TikTok!
To use, apply a dime-sized amount to dry hair and brush it through to distribute the product. You don’t have to do anything else, but to really make your hair shine, you can also wrap sections of your hair around a brush and hit it with a blow dryer for 15 seconds! The brand says this works for all hair types, but it’s ideal for dry, dehydrated, frizzy, coarse, or curly hair.
Promising review: “I am absolutely shocked at the effectiveness of this product, it’s like they bottled some kind of magic in that tube! You only need the tiniest amount, so I expect this tube is going to last quite a while. I love the texture, too; it’s a very light cream, not at all like the oily serums a lot of frizz control products are. I also love that you apply it to dry hair; you can see exactly where the product is needed and just apply a tiny amount in your hands, rub them together, lightly run them over the frizzy areas, and watch the transformation. It makes my hair so smooth and silky feeling, too.” —Carrie T.
Get it from Amazon for $26.
19. A bottle of CND Essentials nail and cuticle oil giving your nails a little TLC treatment, if you’re tired of them constantly chipping or breaking. The formula contains jojoba oil for its moisturizing and conditioning properties, almond oil to help soften, and vitamin E to help reduce signs of damage. People might even start asking if you’re rocking acrylics, they’ll be so long and strong!
Each day, work the oil into your nails and cuticles and they will begin to grow and strengthen, so you don’t have to worry about weak nails anymore!
Check it out in action on TikTok here!
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, 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 $9.99+ (available in three sizes).
20. And Londontown’s “Nail Veil” Protectant to keep your nails looking quite polished. 😉 This protectant leaves your nails with a light coat of pink so they look natural without any chips or scratches to be seen!
Check out a TikTok of the nail veil in action.
Londontown is a small business that specializes in nail care products.
Promising reviews: “This nail veil is so pretty and perfect for a simple, bare nail look! It applies very smoothly, and one to two coats work well. With a top coat, it lasts almost perfectly for about five days, but chips are not very noticeable, so you can easily wear it for longer! I also feel confident in this brand’s use of healthier, higher-quality ingredients, which makes it well worth the extra cost. My nails aren’t left damaged by this product, and it has become my go-to when I don’t have the time for a full-color look but still want my nails to look polished and pretty!” —Sofia K
“Beautiful color: subtle but elegant. Lasts well. Small bottle, but plenty to use before it gets thicker. Would definitely buy again. Recommended.” —Kokopelli

Check out a TikTok of the wrinkle balm in action.
Promising review: “Okay! So I was skeptical at first, but honestly this stick is life changing!!! In a matter of minutes my skin felt hydrated and plumped. After an hour, still hydrated. No greasy after feeling, very light, and you can feel your skin hydrated and absorbing. I love the fact that you can use it on your eyes, lips, and wrinkles!! Game changer for me; will def try the others!” —Kristy
Get it from Amazon for $19.99+ (available in five styles).
22. An octopus-shaped Tonymoly blackhead remover if you’re looking for a blackhead solution without picking up a 13-step skincare treatment you saw on TikTok. Just glide this stick along your face to help extract and exfoliate whiteheads and blackheads.
Promising review: “My boyfriend and I have been trying different products for a while now, and some work better than others for my face, and I feel like almost nothing works to minimize his pores and blackheads. We both have troubled areas around the nose. Well, I saw this on TikTok once and the little container was so cute. I had to look it up and its benefits. I ordered the little octopus scrub and noticed a HUGE difference within the second use, not only on my face, but my boyfriend’s too!! He is obsessed and says ‘we need to buy the whole skincare line’ every time he washes his face. 🤣🤣💀” —Elizabeth M.
Get it from Amazon for $13.
23. A bottle of Elizavecca Hair Treatment packed with collagen and ceramide 3 to swoop in and save the day if your hair has been through so many rounds of bleach and boxed hair dyes, you can’t remember its original texture. Just add this *teeny* extra step in between shampoo and conditioner and wait five short minutes. Reviewers say their hair felt stronger and softer after just one use!
This is designed to work on all hair types, with reviewers with 2b–4c curls mentioning it worked for them!
See it on TikTok here.
Promising review: “I saw this on TikTok, and in between other comparable products that were four times the price, I decided to bite the bullet and buy this — let me tell you, best decision ever! I shampooed my hair, then heavily massaged this in, from ends to scalp. The carton says 5-20 minutes… But I ended up leaving it in for two days! And after washing it out, my hair was so shiny, bouncy, and CURLY! My curl recovery journey has been long, but this has helped restore so much vibrance and shape to my hair. My mom has been stealing it from my bathroom every couple of days after having similar results on her hair. Going to need to buy a few more to ward her off.” —curlyhead3

24. Bio-Collagen’s Real Deep sheet mask because everyone’s skin needs a little TLC, and there’s nothing quite like waking up feeling hydrated and refreshed. It’s packed with special forms of hyaluronic acid and collagen that penetrate more deeply to maximize product absorption, and you can even *see* it get to work as the sheet becomes transparent. Not only will you look glowy and moisturized, but this mask can help refine enlarged pores, enhance skin elasticity, and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
Most reviewers recommend doing this treatment once per week.
Promising review: “Caught wind of this on TikTok and decided to give it a whirl. Honestly, it’s pretty solid! It really makes my skin look tight and shiny, like I just came out of a professional facial. It’s an overnight mask, so yeah, it does have to stay on for a while, which is a bit of a hassle, but the payoff? Totally worth it. My skin feels more elastic, and the pores look minimized, too. If you don’t mind the long wear time, this mask could be a game changer for your skincare routine!” —Nala

TruSkin Naturals is a small business creating unique skincare products.
Promising review: “I’m not usually one to try new skincare products as I’m truly a skincare minimalist (gentle cleanser and moisturizer). However, I am also a skin picker, so I get some scarring, and as I age, I do notice more fine lines and age spots… After using it almost daily for one month, I can honestly say I see a huge difference in the appearance of my skin. My age spots are lightening, scarring from picking/scabbing is almost gone, and the fine lines around my eyes are smoother. I was a little hesitant because not only am I frugal, but my skin has a tendency to be sensitive, and so far, I’ve only seen great results. I will 100% buy this again! There is little to no scent, it’s minimally sticky/not super thick, my skin feels hydrated, and I’m overall super pleased!” —Sara K.
Get it from Amazon for $19.99+ (available in two sizes).
27. A two-pack of dark spot corrector bar soap formulated with vitamin C, retinol, and collagen that can help reduce the appearance of sun damage, dark spots, and blemishes — while leaving behind a smooth, ✨ glowy ✨ look.

Promising review: “I’m big, so my inner thighs have always been darker than the other parts of my legs. I’ve tried other products for it but nothing has worked. I HAVE BEEN USING THIS SOAP FOR THREE DAYS AND OMG!!!! My inner thighs are SMOOTHER, and they are ALMOST THE SAME COLOR AS THE OTHER PARTS OF MY LEGS, I’M SO SO SO HAPPY!!!! I hate that I didn’t take a before picture but trust me!!!! BUY IT!!!! My face also looks brighter and fresher, agghhh!!” —Daphney

28. An adorable polar bear hydrating eye stick for anyone who feels like bees are stinging their under-eyes while you sleep with how puffy and irritated they can be when you wake up. This stick is formulated with Icelandic glacial water and moss to help tighten skin and tackle dark circles. Just like a dip in the water can help you look and feel refreshed, this little balm will be your new a.m. staple.
Promising review: “Yes, yes, yes! I love the cooling effect this has and I feel it does make a difference with my puffiness and dark circles. I like to do this at night after my skin care routine and then again in the morning when I wake up. The coolness from the stick really helps to wake me up in the morning and reduce the puffiness I have.” —Kierstyn McKinnery

Promising review: “My skin dries out severely during the winter, and I have to constantly use Vaseline to keep it moisturized (normal cream doesn’t work on me). Imagine my surprise when my SO tried to put snail goo on me. Eww!! I resisted for weeks refusing to use this product as she constantly vouched for its abilities. After a month, I finally gave in, and boy, it was amazing! My hands feel more moisturized than ever for longer, and it doesn’t leave a disgusting, greasy feel like Vaseline. Take it from a once-nonbeliever: You have to try this. Even if it doesn’t work for you, you paid a fraction of what you would’ve paid for any other name-brand moisturizers.” —Kyoko Ozaki
Get it from Amazon for $18.50.
30. A pomade hair wax stick for all my “clean girl aesthetic” baddies who like to slick their hair back smooth and straight — simply glide this stick over your already done hair for extra hold. Goodbye, flyaways! So long, bad hair days!
Promising reviews: “I saw this on YouTube and immediately wanted to try it. I have curly hair which I love but sometimes I just want to put it in a ponytail and go on with my day. This is a time saver for all those little hairs that tend to stick up or don’t want to stay in place. I’m not a fan of hairspray, and this even smells nice. I believe it’s a light coconut smell. Overall satisfied, and you don’t need to use much. I took it with me on vacation, and it saved me time in the evening from having to deal with bad hair days.” —Blanca Perez
