01A Nourishing Body Oil That Gives Skin A Sunkissed Glow
Keep your skin moisturized while adding a (temporary) shimmering glow with this Saltair body oil. In here, squalane is paired with multiple nourishing oils like kukui and sweet almond to give skin a dewy sheen, while pearl pigments take things to the next level. The body oil is the perfect way to enhance a fresh tan while you’re on vacation, but its creamy sandalwood and soft jasmine scent lets you channel someplace tropical even if you’re stuck at home.
02A Delicate Anklet To Accessorize Your Summer Looks
These dainty anklets are an easy way to work in an extra accessory during the warmer months when denim shorts and breezy dresses are the norm. You can choose from a mix of embellished ankle bracelets for a subtle pop of color, but you’ll also find classic gold and silver chains.

03An Under-$5 Brow Kit That Comes With Everything You Need
From shaping brows to filling them in, this all-in-one brow kit covers quite a few steps. For starters, the compact includes a pair of mini tweezers to remove stray hairs and a brow wax that can be used to set brows in place or serve as a primer before you go in with the tinted powders. There’s even a built-in mirror in the compact, so you can brush up your brows while you’re on the go.
04A Milky Ceramide Toner That Gives You Bright, Dewy Skin
Exfoliating acids aren’t the only way to achieve a brighter complexion. This multi-tasking toner turns to rice water and niacinamide to promote a glowier, more even-looking skin tone over time. Both ingredients are hydrating and soothing, but the toner is also fragrance-free and alcohol-free to further reduce the risk of irritation.
05An Eyelash Curler That Doesn’t Pinch Your Lid (& Comes With A Mini Mascara)
This purple-trimmed eyelash curler is certainly prettier than your average silver option, but it’s easier to use, too. First, the curler features a curved design that won’t pinch your eyelids during the curling process, and then there’s also the oversized grip handle that makes the tool more comfortable to use. As a bonus, it comes with a mini mascara whose formula volumizes, lengthens, and conditions lashes with panthenol and rice bran wax.
06A Skin-Softening Mud Mask For Your Next At-Home Spa Day
No spa day is complete without a mud mask, and this at-home option gives you a full body mask that uses mineral-rich mud from the Dead Sea to soothe and soften your skin. Since the treatment comes in a travel-friendly packet, you could also pack one with you on your next vacation for a little extra indulgence.
07An Adjustable Chain Belt That’ll Match Everything In Your Wardrobe
For a break from traditional leather belts, try one of these chainlink belts, which come in gold and silver metals that you can match to your jewelry. You’ll find layered options as well for something more statement-making, but all of the belts have an adjustable chain that adds an unexpected detail (and allows for the belts to fit more waist sizes).

- Available sizes: S – XL
08A Pearlescent Mask That Uses Salmon Sperm To Get Skin Glowing
Salmon sperm in your skin care may sound questionable, but the trending ingredient (also known as PDRN) has been shown to help with everything from hydration to elasticity. This PDRN-infused mask has a jelly texture and a pearlescent sheen when you use the included brush to paint it over your skin, but it peels right off after 15 minutes, leaving you with an instant glow.
09A Conditioning Serum For Your Eyelashes
Just as you condition the hair on your head, your lashes could likely use some attention, too. This eyelash serum nourishes brittle lashes and helps prevent breakage with a swipe of the included wand. Aloe vera, olive leaf extract, and ginseng root extract are behind the serum’s moisturizing abilities, which can be worn under mascara during the day or on its own at night.
10Bronzing Drops That Are Infused With Vitamin C For Glowier Skin
This liquid bronzer instantly leaves skin looking sun-kissed with its serum-like texture that isn’t heavy or sticky. At the same time, the customizable drops brighten skin with continued use, thanks to vitamin C and glycolic acid.
11A Luxe Dry Shampoo That Smells Like Gardenias
This pretty pink bottle houses a dry shampoo that soaks up excess oil and refreshes hair with a light gardenia scent. Yes, it still contains many of the moisture-zapping ingredients found in most dry shampoos, but it also contains hydrolyzed keratin to help counteract some of those drying effects.
12A Moisturizing, Glow-Boosting Face Sunscreen That Comes With A Measuring Cap
Not only does this face moisturizer treat skin and protect against UVA and UVB rays with broad-spectrum SPF 50, but it also comes with a cap that doubles as a quarter teaspoon measure. Designed to sit just as well under makeup as it does on bare skin, the glowy sunscreen is formulated with vitamin C, niacinamide, and hyaluronic acid to brighten and enhance skin. (Just remember that you should be applying a half teaspoon of sunscreen to cover your face and neck when using that measuring cap!)
13A Pro-Quality Eyeshadow Palette For Under $15
As exciting as it is to get a new eyeshadow palette, if you’re anything like me, you probably only stick to the neutrals. This nine-pan eyeshadow palette only features the classics, giving you a mix of light and rich brown shades in matte and shimmery finishes. And if you are into brighter shades, there are plenty of color coordinated palettes (including purples, pinks, and peaches) to choose from, too.
- Available options: 28
14A Plunging Push-Up Bra With Convertible Straps
This Calvin Klein push-up bra does more than give you some lift. Padded cups create a sculpting effect and sit smoothly under clothing, while the plunging neckline works nicely with V-neck tops and low-cut dresses. The push-up bra also features convertible straps so you can transition to a racerback style.

- Available sizes: 32A – 36D
15A Lip Oil With Flower Petals In The Formula
This lip oil delivers a gorgeous, glossy shine, but the floating pink flower petals in the tube make it just as pretty to look at. While the flower petals (and vanilla scent) are purely for aesthetics, the lip oil does contain a dose of nourishing jojoba seed oil, vitamin E, and hyaluronic acid to leave lips feeling soft and moisturized.
- Available shades: 2
16A Cooling Clay Mask That Uses Volcanic Ash To Unclog Pores & Absorb Excess Oil
Oily skin types already know that clays masks can help with absorbing some of that excess sebum that contributes to clogged pores and greasy skin. But this K-beauty clay mask takes things a step further by pairing bentonite and kaolin clays with volcanic ash and lactic acid to absorb oil and remove the dead skin cells that can contribute to breakouts. The mask delivers a cooling sensation to the skin as it dries, but you can also use it as a spot treatment when you only want to target specific areas.
17An Aussie Self-Tanner That Comes With An Application Mitt
As a longtime devotee of self-tanning mousse formulas, I know not to dare apply it without a mitt. While you usually have to buy this essential separately, Bondi Sands offers a more convenient self-tanning foam and mitt bundle. The mitt is washable and reusable, and the sets come in light, dark (featured here), and ultra dark self-tanner shades — all of which are coconut scented and formulated with skin-smoothing aloe vera, glycerin, and vitamin E.
- Available shades: 3
18A Creamy Blush Stick That Doubles As Tinted Lip Balm
At less than $15, this travel-friendly makeup stick has both your blush and lip color bases covered. The twist-up design and creamy formula let you swipe on color exactly where you want it, even when you’re on the move. The cheek and lip tint is vegan and cruelty-free, and botanical ingredients like aloe vera, chamomile flower extract, and ginseng root extract give it a moisturizing effect that’s especially great for dry skin types.

20An Unscented Body Oil For Your Silkiest Skin (& Hair!) Ever
The best time to apply your moisturizer is right out of the shower when your skin is still damp. This body oil was specifically designed for post-shower use, offering a fast-absorbing formula that isn’t fragranced and doesn’t leave your skin feeling greasy. Despite its lightweight feel, the body oil doesn’t skimp on the moisturizing benefits, thanks to the jojoba oil, argan oil, and coconut oil in the formula — and it can also be used on the ends of your hair.
21Golden Masks That Revive Tired Under-Eyes
To perk up tired eyes in 20 minutes or less, pop on these golden under-eye masks. Each gel mask uses ingredients like centella asiatica extract, tea leaf extract, and hyaluronic acid to soothe and rehydrate the under-eye area. Pro tip: For more depuffing benefits, store the eye masks in the fridge.
22A Lace-Trimmed Slip That Doubles As A Skirt Extender
For a smoother silhouette, this half slip ensures that your dresses don’t cling or bunch up. But it’s also trimmed with lace to serve as a skirt or dress extender. The slips come in several lengths depending on how you want to wear yours, all of which are fitted with a stretchy elastic waist.

- Available sizes: S – 3XL
23A Toning Shampoo Just For Platinum Blondes
If your purple pigmented shampoo isn’t doing enough to keep your platinum blonde hair icy, consider switching to this toning shampoo for blondes. Made especially for light and platinum blonde hair colors, the shampoo uses black pigments to better neutralize brassiness for a cooler tone. The shampoo also prioritizes the health of fragile color-treated hair with strengthening ingredients like sunflower seed extract, grapeseed oil, and hydrolyzed proteins.
24A Collagen-Boosting Moisturizer That Comes In Stick Form
Looking for a way to work PDRN into your daily skin care routine? This moisturizing balm can be used at home and on the go to increase collagen production and plump up skin with the trendy, salmon sperm-derived ingredient. The hypoallergenic formula also includes skin care favorites like sunflower seed oil, shea butter, and turmeric root extract to further assist in leaving you with a dewy complexion.
25A Duo Of Vitamin C & Retinol Serums From A TikTok-Loved Brand
Vitamin C and retinol are two of the most dermatologist-recommended active ingredients, but you don’t have to schedule an in-office visit to incorporate them into your routine. This serum set gives you your morning vitamin C and your evening retinol for just $35. Both serums are cruelty-free and vegan, and those with sensitive skin will love that the retinol serum pairs the notoriously irritating ingredient with soothing aloe vera, green tea, and centella asiatica.
26Classic Cat Eye Sunglasses That Come In Trendy Colors
When it comes to sunglasses, cat eye frames are a perennial favorite, and these glossy black sunnies are as classic as it gets. But if it’s something trendier that you’re after, the brand still has you covered, as the cat eye frames also come in colorful purple, peach, and green designs.

27A Pre-Blow Dry Spray That Locks Out Unwanted Frizz
If you feel like you’re fighting a losing battle with frizz, it’s time to reconsider your prep work. This priming mist uses thermal-activated technology to create a humidity-resistant barrier over your hair once you go in with your blow dryer. The results? Shiny, frizz-free that won’t require any touch-ups.
28A Mask For Your Chin That Promotes A Temporary Sculpted Effect
This chin wrap may look like you’re recovering from wisdom teeth surgery, but it’s not as scary as you think. Instead, the stretchy fabric works like a contouring mask to help lift the jawline. The mask uses a Velcro strap to adjust to your head, and the fabric is hypoallergenic and comfortable to wear during each 20-minute session.
29Seamless Underwear With Lacy Detailing
This set of bikini underwear combines the comfort of a seamless design with pretty lace detailing at the back. A mix of fabrics gives the underwear extra stretch and softness, and you can choose from multiple color combos depending on your preference.

You can basically ditch the rest of your hot styling tools once you add this all-in-one blow dryer and styling brush to your arsenal.

31A Refreshing Rose Face Mist That’s Completely Natural & Organic
USDA-certified organic rose water is the only ingredient in this face mist, which can be used as a toner or as a makeup setting (or midday refresh) spray. In addition to offering instant hydration, rose water’s anti-inflammatory properties can also help to soothe redness and irritation.
32A Microfiber Hair Towel That Speeds Up Drying Time
This hair wrap is made of a plush microfiber that’s more absorbent than your typical cotton towel to help speed up drying time. It’s less damaging on your hair, too, as it helps to minimize friction for less breakage and frizz. You can use it to towel off your hair and go, but it also has a loop closure to wear as a wrap while you go about the rest of your post-shower routine.
- Available colors: 2
33A Skin Care-Infused Makeup Primer With A Pearlescent Glow
Worn under makeup, this primer moisturizes skin and minimizes the look of pores with hyaluronic acid, squalane, and niacinamide. But you can also wear it on its own for the softest of glows, as the primer provides a sheer tint of bronze color and light-reflecting micro-pearl powder for instantly radiant skin.
34A Heart-Shaped Jade Stone For At-Home Gua Sha
Grab your favorite serum and this jade stone for a sculpting face massage that helps to relieve tension in minutes. Known as gua sha, the buzzy technique has actually been used for centuries in traditional Chinese medicine. When used as part of your at-home skin care routine, gua sha encourages lymphatic drainage to reduce puffiness and create a temporary lifted effect.
35A Cooling Face Mask To Minimize Puffiness
If poor sleep or seasonal allergies are leaving you with puffiness beyond your eyes, this full face mask can help deliver more relief. The reusable mask can be stored in your freezer, but you can also throw it in the microwave for a few seconds if you’re battling a tension headache. No matter how you use it, the mask will contour to your face and stay right where you put it, thanks to its moldable gel filling and Velcro straps.
36A Silk Pillowcase For Your Healthiest Hair Ever
Beauty sleep takes on a whole new meaning when you’re resting your head on a silk pillowcase.

37A Hydrating Serum That Will Only Cost You $10
The 10,000-plus five-star ratings on Amazon may be all the convincing you need to try this hyaluronic acid serum. But the $10 price tag certainly doesn’t hurt either. Formulated for daily use, the serum helps to restore moisture and naturally plump up skin with its blend of hyaluronic acid, glycerin, aloe vera, and vitamin E. At the same time, it works to soothe skin right away and brighten over time with ingredients like centella asiatica, green tea, and vitamin C.
38A Bodysuit That Doubles As Shapewear
Though they’re a wardrobe staple, all bodysuits aren’t created equal in terms of having a smoothing and sculpting effect. This bodysuit gives you the best of both worlds with its classic neutral colors and shapewear design. If you want to wear it solely as shapewear, you’ll also find unitard styles that are perfect for wearing underneath dresses.
- Available options: 7
- Available sizes: XXS – 3X
3924-Karat Gold-Infused Masks Just For Your Chin
These hydrogel masks can be used to complement your gua sha routine for even more sculpting benefits. But you can use the individually packaged masks on their own, too, which come saturated in a serum-like solution combining 24-karat gold, hyaluronic acid, peptides, and retinol to improve skin elasticity as the mask itself helps to enhance the jawline.
40A Strappy Bra That Makes Any Outfit Look 10x Hotter
You can spice up any look with a cage bra, but the strappy style is a fun way to add some unexpected detailing to fitted crop tops and flowy dresses during festival season. This set gives you four different harness bras to choose from, each one using stretchy elastic bands that are adjustable to fit a wider range of sizes.
41An At-Home Lash Lift Kit That Eliminates The Need For A Lash Curler
Like a perm for your lashes, this comprehensive kit lets you add a semi-permanent curl without any extensions or mascara. The at-home kit comes with all of the necessary tools and cleansing and perming solutions, as well as multiple silicone pad sizes that let you determine the degree of your curl. You’ll definitely want to read the instructions a few times (and maybe ask a friend for help), but thousands of five-star ratings on Amazon confirm that the results are worth the learning curve.
42A Retinol Cream You Can Roll Right Over Your Skin
The proprietary complex of plant-derived retinol and peptides in this night cream works to speed up skin cell turnover and boost collagen production with continued use, resulting in an improved skin tone and texture. Helping to better deliver all of those ingredients is the built-in steel roller applicator, which massages the cream into your skin and creates a refreshing cooling effect at the same time.
43A Post-Shaving Oil That Helps Prevent Ingrowns
Ingrown hairs are a literal pain to deal with, but they’re not entirely unpreventable. This post-shaving body oil moisturizes skin and uses strawberry fruit extract to gently exfoliate dead skin cells that can otherwise clog the hair follicle and lead to an ingrown. Strawberries also play a part in the oil’s sweet scent, which is fragranced with notes of strawberry and vanilla.
44A Claw Clip With Customizable Rhinestone Embellishment
Claw clips have made a major comeback, and if they’re a go-to in your styling routine, this Amazon find gives you a totally unique way to wear the accessory.

Plus, it comes with all of the tools you need to apply your temporary extensions, including a curved tweezer to get the placement just right.
46A Heel & Elbow Balm That Uses Manuka Honey To Promote Smoother Skin
Consider this the heel balm to end all heel balms (though you can use it on other roughness-prone spots, like your elbows, too). The ultra-rich balm contains Manuka honey, urea, and other heavy-duty moisturizing ingredients to turn your rough heels silky-smooth. Elite Daily beauty editor Adeline Duff swears by the balm, calling it “the best foot cream [she’s] ever used.”
47An At-Home Manicure Kit That Rivals The Salon
Gel manicures may be revolutionary, but they’re also pretty expensive. This press-on manicure kit gives you the same glossy, chip-resistant gel finish that you love without the lengthy process (or the hefty price tag). There are dozens of on-trend colors and more elaborate nail art designs to choose from, as well as almond and square shapes (though you can certainly alter the shape yourself, too).

Take your at-home manicures to the next level with this salon-quality solution that melts off the dry, excess skin from your cuticles, leaving you with nails that look like they just came from the salon. It doesn’t get rid of your cuticles, as that would be dangerous, but rather removes any unnecessary excess — and the formula is balanced out by aloe and chamomile to hydrate and soothe.
51Highlighting Powder For A Next-Level Glow
Take your glow to the next level with this highlighting powder that gives you a show-stopping sparkle with just a light touch. The light-reflecting powder is infused with ultra-fine shimmer particles and comes in three different shades. It also comes with its own brush, and is housed in a pretty mirrored compact.
52Toe Rings For A Sexy Throwback Vibe
Throwing it back to the late ‘90s/early aughts, these toe rings will add an unexpectedly sexy touch to a part of your body that’s often overlooked. Each order comes with three different toe rings, all made of hypoallergenic copper that’s plated with 14-karat gold.
53Tropical-Scented Shave Oil For Silky-Soft Skin
If you shave, but often wind up with dry, bumpy skin rather than silky-soft skin, you need this shave oil. It prevents nicks and cuts while giving you a super-smooth glide, and has the added bonus of smelling like a tropical cocktail — though it comes seven other decadent scents, including watermelon and vanilla.
54A Sultry Lace Bralette That You Can Wear As A Top
Not only does this lace bralette look way more expensive than it is, but it functions as both a top and a bra. You can wear it solo like a crop top, underneath a low-cut shirt as a bra, or let it peek out of an open blazer — either way, the result will be so unassumingly sexy.
