2. Fanola Purple Shampoo tones down brassy hair with violet pigments. When your blonde strands start to look streaky and yellow, this formula can help you out in between salon appointments! Plus, you can use it right in the shower, and it only takes one to three minutes to apply.

There’s also a vegan version available for your hair care routine!
Promising review: “I stopped coloring my hair a year and 3 months ago. Now that my hair is fully grey, my hair stylist recommended I use this instead of another popular brand purple shampoo I was using. This shampoo really brightens grey hair and takes any yellow out after the first time using. You are supposed to use it one to two times a week. My stylist recommended using once a week and mixing some into regular shampoo once a week. I am very pleased with the results. Makes my hair soft and shiny. Highly recommend this shampoo.” —Lori J

3. This cult-favorite vitamin C serum targets multiple skincare concerns at the same time and is like a facial in a bottle. It’ll help minimize hyperpigmentation, brighten dull areas, and soften skin. More than 74,000+ people on Amazon gave it a 5-star rating for its jaw-dropping results.
Promising review: “This serum works wonders on my skin. I had slight hyperpigmentation on my face, and I do have acne scars; my skin looked dull and lacked moisture. After I applied this serum every day in the morning, my skin looks so much better than before. My pigmentation is reduced; my skin looks fresh and moisturized. I am very happy with my purchase, and I highly recommend this to buy.” —Kavita
Get it from Amazon for $21.97+ (available in two sizes).
4. L’Oréal Voluminous Primer Mascara turns up the drama without pricey extensions or stubborn falsies. It contains fibers that help lengthen lashes and goes on white, so you can seamlessly apply mascara right after.
BuzzFeed Shopping writer Ali Faccenda loves this mascara and said: “Over the years I’ve noticed my lashes falling out, and they’re not as voluminous and long as they once were (*cries*). This mascara primer has changed all of that. I use it in tandem with the Thrive Causemetics mascara for a dynamic duo that hasn’t failed me yet. The primer base adds a noticeable amount of fibers to thicken my thin lashes, which gives me a full-lash look.” Read more of her L’Oréal Voluminous Primer Mascara review (it’s #10).
Promising review: “I always found when taking off my mascara my lashes are hard, and the mascara flakes off when I take it off using makeup remover wipes. However, ever since I started using primer, I no longer had this problem. This primer is easy to apply; it’s very soft and it’s a white color, which I like because you actually can see where on your lashes an extension is happening. This primer also makes my lashes longer, and prevents them from clumping. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.” —the queen

5. And this top-rated Essence mascara adds major volume to your lashes and lifts them up. If you really want to skip using an eyelash curler, apply this buildable formula to your lashes, give them some length, and be DONE with makeup in minutes.
BuzzFeed Shopping editor Kayla Boyd swears by this mascara and said: “As someone who isn’t a big fan of false lashes (the glue irritates my eyes, and I’m terrible at applying them) this budget-friendly holy grail does the trick for both lengthening and volumizing my lashes. It uses a conic shape fiber brush to help the mascara apply evenly without getting too clumpy. Plus, it’s cruelty-free!” Peep more deets in her full Essence Lash Princess mascara review.
Promising review: “Amazing volume and length and for a fantastic price. I highly recommend it if you want eyelashes that look like you could be wearing fake ones! Good staying power as well.” —Melissa

6. These large Mighty Patches diminish multiple zits on your jawline, back, and neck. Each hydrocolloid strip absorbs pus and can minimize the appearance of a breakout within SIX HOURS. They’ll also stay on your skin and not come off, thanks to durable tapered edges.
Each strip is 2 inches long, so they can cover and draw pus from multiple zits at a time!
Promising review: “Amazing! I was using multiple little patches on large areas and they just didn’t work that well. I put this patch on my chin and left it overnight and was extremely pleased with the results. I had two little pimples and a bunch of hard-to-get black heads. My chin has never been more clear. It basically feels like those clear waterproof Band-Aids so it did not slide off during the night. I was so surprised and a little grossed out that so much gunk was in my chin. I highly recommend these patches!” —Erin Brown

7. Garnier Intensely Smooth Leave-In Conditioning Cream moisturizes strands and helps minimize breakage. This hydrating formula goes deep into dry hair follicles and nourishes them with argan oil. The result? Less frizz, a smoother texture, and better ends before it’s time for your next haircut.
This formula, which is designed for curly, wavy, and straight hair types, can be used up to 3 times per week.
Promising review: “I love this leave-in conditioner for several reasons beside the fact that it works. I have an oily scalp, so coating it in the shower with a product that is basically lotion for your hair is not a true ‘clean’ for me. I can keep the Sleek & Shine away from my scalp and still have plenty on my hair. The body and shine is great. I have long, fine silver hair and my hairstylist always comments on what great shape my ends are in even after a long time between cuts. A bottle lasts a long time and you can’t beat the price. I highly recommend this product for all hair types.” —Paula J
Get it from Amazon for $3.29.
8. This Revlon Volcanic Face Roller absorbs excess oil on your cheeks, chin, and forehead. If your face is looking a little too shiny, this reusable essential can be applied to a fresh face of makeup or clean skin. Plus, it’ll spare you from using a million blotting papers throughout the day.
It’s also easy to clean: Just twist and unlock the roller’s ring, gently pull out the stone part, wash the stone with a gentle cleanser, rinse it off, and let it air dry before using it again!
Promising review: “I have oily skin that typically gets worse in the warm weather, and I usually buy blotting papers to remove excess oil in my T-zone. Those work fine, but THIS product is absolutely ingenious! Not only does it work beautifully without disturbing my makeup, it’s reusable, easy to clean, and most importantly to me, it is so much more eco-friendly! I highly recommend this to all my oily-skinned beauties out there!” —GodivaRn
Get it from Amazon for $14.49.
9. First Aid Beauty KP Bump Eraser Body Scrub clears out pores and sloughs away dead skin from rough bumps. This formula is vegan, made with lactic acid and glycolic acid for gentle exfoliation, and will be great to use in the shower for smoother arms and legs.

Promising review: “My forearms have always been rough and red. I used this for the first time tonight, just my hand rubbing it over my arms in the shower. I asked my teenage daughter to touch my arms and she asked me if I shaved them. That’s how smooth they are. I highly recommend for the fact that it made my arms smooth for the first time in like 30 years.” —Kindle Customer

Promising review: “I got this to replace my old matte balm that I got LITERALLY years ago (I know, I know, should have replaced sooner) and I’m already in love with it. It’s light to wear, and my lips actually breathe. It doesn’t get clumpy during long wear either and actually lasted through dinner last night. Highly recommend this one!” —C. Bentley
Get it from Amazon for $9.90 (available in 24 colors).

In addition to receiving a 4.6-star rating, this exfoliant is under $15 and also a top skincare pick on TikTok!
Promising review: “I had seen several reviews on TikTok about this product and I decided to try it for myself and see how good it was as they said. I had pores and pimples around my cheeks, I’ve tried different products but none worked as good as this one. Every night before going to bed, I apply it to my face along with a moisturizer. And wow, I am not kidding, the next day you can already see how the redness is fading away and any recent pimples start to get smaller, as well as my pores on my cheek area! I had not seen a difference that fast with other popular products, but this one did. I highly recommend, it really does improves your skin and it looks more healthy and glowing. In my opinion 10/10 :)” —Mariel Garza
Get it from Amazon for $13+ (available in two sizes).
13. Or! This lil’ octopus-shaped blackhead remover extracts blackheads, whiteheads, and other impurities clogging up your pores. You’ll be so glad to ~sea~ your complexion with less bumps and smoother areas after using this cutie.
Promising review: “I have never reviewed anything on Amazon before. The minute I used this product, I ran to write a review. My entire life, I have had perfect skin. I didn’t use any products, masks, moisturizer, nothing. It was a blessing. I had a baby and ever since, my skin has been horrible, especially my nose. Pores so filled even estheticians couldn’t help me. One use of this scrubber and I see a NOTICEABLE difference. It’s honestly incredible. I’m finally feeling like myself again. HIGHLY recommend!” —Cristian
Get it from Amazon for $12.50.
14. Maybelline Instant Age Rewind concealer covers up acne, dark spots, and dark circles. It’s packed with goji berry and Haloxyl that’ll help minimize the appearance of puffy under-eye skin and conceal irritated spots. Yes to working that makeup-pro magic in minutes. 👏
Promising review: “I’m a snob when it comes to makeup, and I usually avoid drugstore makeup because of my sensitive skin. However, I find most prestige-brand concealers to be really heavy and dry, so I decided to trust the reviews on this product and try it out. And all I can say is it’s amazing! Great coverage that I can sheer out when I need, or build up when I want more coverage. The applicator allows me to spot conceal any blemishes and looks natural. And best of all, no heavy feeling and no caking/creasing even with all-day wear. Now my makeup routine is just this concealer and a MAC setting powder! Highly recommend, now my mom, sister, and I all swear by it, and are saving a lot of money as well!” —Sami Ramesh

It has 5,064 positive reviews and a 4.6-star rating!
Promising review: “I can’t even tell you how many times I’ve ordered this 😭 MY HOLY GRAIL!!!! It REALLY helps with stretch marks. It’s so moisturizing that it makes my skin smile. My stretch marks faded as soon as I started using this.
After my first baby, my stretch marks were very noticeable but I swear that when I started using this it made them almost disappear. Well they’re still there of course it’s not some magic eraser, but it definitely helped them look less noticeable by taking away the purple and pink in them.
I’m pregnant with my second baby and I have used this since even before I found out cause I will continue to use this every day on my skin. My belly is super moisturized and I haven’t had a single stretch mark. I’m 7 months pregnant and this is working great so far! HIGHLY recommend.” —Alexcia

16. This TikTok-famous Denman Hair Brush detangles and defines curls that are dry or wet. It has rows of sculpted nylon pins that’ll work through knots and shape ringlets, leaving you with softer and smoother strands.
Here’s how to use the brush: Brush it through wet hair in an outward motion, and twist it to shape curls. You can also use it while blow-drying your hair to make the styling process a little easier.
Check it out on TikTok here.
Promising review: “This is the most amazing brush I’ve ever owned. I have thick curly hair, and I feel like it’s able to reach and detangle everything. My daughter has 4c hair; this works really well on her hair and detangles easily. I also really love that this brush can be taken apart and cleaned because my brushes fill with hair really fast, and in all honesty, it was always easier to just get a new brush than sit there trying to clean them. I highly recommend this brush, especially if you have thick and/or curly hair.” —ABC

17. This foot file removes dead skin so easily, you’ll gasp at your newly soft heels that were once crusty, callused, and cracked. If you’d like your feet to be baby-soft again, this cheese grater-like tool can help you out!

Promising review: “OK, yes, it looks like a cheese grater and, yes, it is darn sharp…so I was a little nervous about it. But I gotta say, this is a great foot rasp. I’m one of those people who runs around barefoot as much as possible and my feet get pretty dry and callused as a result. This rasp worked like a charm to remove all the dead skin and have my feet looking and feeling better in no time. Follow the directions and don’t push too hard, let the rasp do the work, then there are no worries about cutting yourself or removing too many layers. I would highly recommend this rasp.” —Kindle Customer

18. This box of hydrating face masks helps tighten your pores, clear minor breakouts, *and* combat dryness. Don’t be alarmed if you start to look like a zombie when you put it on, it’s just the mask getting to work on your skin! Once you take it off, your face will feel brighter and more moisturized.
Promising review: “I was absolutely amazed after using this mask! It made my skin so soft! My pores were barely there, this mask tightened my skin and left it baby smooth! This was only after one use! My makeup went on beautifully and lasted longer. After several uses I can say the tightening effect has really left my skin firmer. The mask made my skin feel slightly itchy as it tightened. However, it did subside and it didn’t irritate my face. I am loving how soft my skin is. And yes it is still making my pores look none existent! Love it, would highly recommend. 💕💕” —Sarah

19. L’Oreal Infallible foundation powder provides full coverage without clogging pores, leaves a matte finish, and stays in place for up to 24 hours. You’ll definitely want to add this staple to your collection if you’re done dealing with makeup that needs to be reapplied often or irritates your skin.
Promising reviews: “This product delivers everything it promises. It’s easy to apply and stays on all day. Moreover, it is light enough to wear in hot weather, and it can be layered for more coverage, without looking too cakey. The sponge applicator works, but it does need to be cleaned fairly often. Overall, a great product that I will continue to purchase. One caveat: The colors, if ordered online, tend to be a tad lighter than pictured. I will need to go darker for the summer months. I highly recommend this product.” —Amazon Customer
“I’ve been applying the powder with a sponge, gives amazing coverage. Covers up blemishes / scarring pretty well; the photos are only the powder (editor’s note: See photos above). I really did not notice much transfer to my mask with this powder. Lasted during the day and didn’t fade even when it was hot. Overall affordable powder option, one I can just throw on and go. Pretty satisfied overall. 😊” —Gabby
Get it from Amazon for $12.97 (available in 20 shades).
20. This collagen-coating treatment coats dry and damaged hair that has undergone lots of coloring and hot tool sessions. Shampoo your hair, squirt a small amount into your hands and work through sections, and rinse it out after 5–20 minutes to make your strands softer and shinier.

22. Cosrx Snail Mucin Power Essence repairs and hydrates areas on your face prone to dryness and dullness. Rub this treatment on your skin to give it a little glow and make it feel more moisturized.

Promising review: “This is holy grail for me! It’s unscented, which I love, and goes on so smooth. I’m a little backwards with my application, being that after toner or exfoliation I put on a few drops of jojoba oil, and then the Essence. I found that by doing this, the products absorb better. Since using this in combination with the Korean skincare method, my face has completely cleared up, with only the occasional zit. Honestly, it’s my favorite product and soothes my skin, especially after exfoliating. Highly recommended!” —Anjelic

They blend out seamlessly on the cheeks and just melt into my lips. This product is so versatile! I highly recommend you go check it out and find a shade/finish that you like and give it a try! You won’t be disappointed!” —AmberMarie8

Reviewers are raving about it because it makes their eyebrows look fuller without a pricey microblading session.

Yes, you can ~wing it~ and get your makeup done without smudging or uneven lines.
27. This set of gold under-eye masks helps minimize puffiness and dark circles. You may have stayed up late watching your fave TV show, but these soothing pads will help you look a little less tired the next day and spare you from using a bunch of concealer.
BuzzFeed writer Jasmin Sandal loves these masks and said: “I decided to put these golden gems to the test after coming off of a red-eye flight with practically no sleep. After cooling them off in the fridge (which is what was suggested on the packet), I applied them to my purpley, puffy eyes, and…w-o-w. Not only did I feel like I was receiving some kind of royal treatment (because, gold), but after 20 minutes, my under-eyes appeared brighter and any fine lines that were once lingering had vanished! After wearing these I didn’t feel compelled to apply concealer either, which is usually my go-to to disguise dark circles — and I even felt confident enough to go bare-faced for the rest of the day.”
Promising review: “This product is amazing! As a nurse who works the night shift, I find that this product has been a lifesaver. I used to have dark, baggy circles under my eyes and this product has left me looking rejuvenated. Friends have complimented how the skin around and under my eyes appears smooth, hydrated, and less puffy. The product itself also feels refreshing. I’m a fan of this product and I highly recommend it!” —Jason
