55 Genius Things That'll Make You Look & Feel Prettier

This dermaplaning kit includes a shaving spray that coats your skin in a powdery mist that highlights every little hair, making it easier to remove unwanted peach fuzz. Along with the face mist, each set also includes four disposable face razors for dermaplaning, although you can also use them to help groom and shape your eyebrows.

A drop (or two) of this blush serum is all you need to get an instant rosy glow. Especially great for dry skin types, the liquid blush adds plenty of moisture with ingredients like glycerin, hyaluronic acid, and murumuru seed butter. It also has a touch of shimmer for a luminous finish, as well as a light coconut scent.

This clever scalp serum has a built-in brush that helps you to massage the formula right where you need it. In addition to supporting hair growth with caffeine, silk amino acids, and cica, the scalp serum contains microneedling spicules to exfoliate and allow the serum to penetrate better by puncturing the outermost layer of the skin. Keep in mind that if you have a sensitive scalp, you might want to run this one by your dermatologist before adding it to your routine.

Your perfect pink lip color is as easy as swiping on this TikTok-viral lip oil. The pH-adjusting formula reacts to your skin’s chemistry to create a flush of pink that’s totally unique to you. Not quite glossy, the lip oil still offers a bit of shine, as well as an impressive list of moisturizing ingredients like jojoba seed oil, apricot kernel oil, and avocado oil.

This hair styling tool is small enough to fit in your back pocket, but it makes a major impact when you’re going for a sleek updo. Each travel-friendly tube holds a fluffy spoolie and a styling cream that slicks back flyaways and keeps them in place. At the same time, the vegan and cruelty-free cream helps to condition hair with prickly pear seed oil, dragon fruit extract, and meadowfoam seed oil.

A unique way to mask, this 20-minute treatment starts out like a cream that you’re meant to slather on in an even layer. While ingredients like centella asiatica, ceramides, and collagen work to plump up skin and soothe any redness, the mask begins to transform into a transparent film that you then peel off to reveal a glowier complexion.

This K-beauty face mist has a thicker, almost gel-like consistency, but once you give it a spritz, it feels lightweight and fast absorbing on the skin. Formulated to deliver the concentrated benefits of a serum in a more on-the-go-friendly way, the face mist is packed with peptides, hydrolyzed collagen, and hyaluronic acid to give your skin long-lasting moisture that leaves it plumped-up and glowing.

Depending on where you live, a basic gel manicure can set you back $50. To save money and time without compromising on the finish, give these press-ons a try. The comprehensive set comes with fake nails in 16 sizes for the most accurate fit, as well as the adhesives and prep tools for applying them. Best of all, the nails come in dozens of shapes and designs to give you the most up-to-date trends (like the almond-shaped, milky manicure shown here).

You don’t need a separate adhesive for these false lashes, which come pre-glued and ready to go. The beginner-friendly falsies have a smaller, cluster design that looks more natural than a full strip lash and gives you more control over your final look. Each kit gives you several lash lengths to choose from, and the adhesive promises to hold up to all-day wear as it’s waterproof and sweat-resistant.

This beauty award-winning complexion booster was created to mimic your favorite social media filter for a soft-focus finish IRL. The versatile find comes in more than a dozen tinted shades to seamlessly blend in with your skin tone, whether you wear it on its own or mix it into your foundation. In addition to moisturizing ingredients like squalane and hyaluronic acid, the liquid tint is also infused with a subtle hint of shimmer to further boost your glow.

For super-smooth skin with minimal effort, keep this body scrub in your shower. The two-in-one product uses sugar crystals to buff away dead skin cells, but it restores moisture and softens skin with glycerin, shea butter, and coconut oil. Another bonus? The body scrub is cruelty-free, vegan, and scented with a tropical vanilla and coconut blend.

The next time you’re going for a Bella Hadid-level slicked back updo, reach for this styling stick. The vegan and cruelty-free wax stick helps to sculpt your ponytail or top knot by smoothing back flyaways and baby hairs. But it’s also full of conditioning ingredients like plum oil and argan oil to support healthy hair as it leaves behind a polished shine, instead of a gel-like crunch.

If there’s one beauty product you keep in your gym bag, make it this hypochlorous acid mist. Formulated by a dermatologist, the fragrance-free and hypoallergenic spray can be used to soothe skin conditions like eczema and rosacea, as well as general irritation and itchiness. The multipurpose mist is also great after a workout, as it can help reduce redness and kill both acne- and odor-causing bacteria.

Germaphobes will appreciate that the cleanser in this body buffer was designed to last about 30 showers, so you’ll be automatically replacing it before it becomes riddled with bacteria like a traditional loofah. Each double-sided buffer features a softer sponge on one side for cleansing, and a textured side for exfoliating. Both sides create a sudsy lather once you add water with the built-in cleanser that comes in luxe fragrance options like Bulgarian rose and French lavender.

Hair perfume may not be the most obvious beauty booster, but it does wonders to elevate your mood (and your blowout). This hair and body mist from OUAI is my personal favorite to spritz through my hair for an instant refresh. Not only does it make an at-home blowout feel more salon-level, but it also brings the vacation vibes to the everyday with its St. Barts-inspired notes of ocean breeze accord, orange blossom, and tuberose.

There’s no chalky-white cast with this face sunscreen, but there is a slight pink tint. That unexpected color actually helps to cancel out dullness and sallowness in the skin to create a more radiant complexion even without makeup. This broad-spectrum SPF 50 sunscreen is also formulated with hyaluronic acid, ceramides, niacinamide, and peptides to keep skin glowing.

Save the tanning mousses and lotions for your body. When it comes to tanning your face, opt for this lightweight, streak-free self-tanner mist. The gradual self-tanner doesn’t require any blending or application mitts; just spritz it over your face (or as a touch up for areas that fade fast like the hands and feet) and be on your way. The tanning mist was also formulated with skin care in mind, promising not to clog your pores while adding moisture with hyaluronic acid and hibiscus extract.

Inspired by cryo facials, this sheet mask makes the cooling treatment more accessible. The two-part mask starts with applying a serum ampoule before layering the flexible mask on top. As the disposable mask seals in ingredients like peptides and hyaluronic acid, it also creates a cooling effect that lowers the skin’s temperature to enhance your glow and leave you feeling refreshed.

If using a foot file isn’t enough to give you the ick on its own, the visible dead skin it leaves behind certainly is. This foot file still requires scraping at dry heels and calluses, but it has a removable plastic container attached that catches all of the dead skin for you. The manual tool features a nonslip grip and a stainless steel file to make it both easy to use and clean.

You can use this face cream whenever you like, but it’s especially helpful when you’re experiencing a bout of irritation. PDRN (aka fragments of DNA extracted from salmon sperm) is the key ingredient, which has anti-inflammatory properties to help soothe and improve the skin’s repair process in addition to enhancing elasticity. In keeping with the calming theme, the face cream is free from more than 80 potential irritants, including fragrance.

Liquid blush tends to work best for a natural flush with a dewy finish — but it’s not the most long-lasting of makeup products. Not so with this liquid blush stain, which gives you buildable color that’s easy to blend but stays put once it dries down. The sponge-tip applicator makes it easy to apply on the go, and it comes in a selection of bolder and more neutral shades.

For seriously dry skin, this body gel oil restores hydration and adds a shimmer-free shine. Thicker than your typical oil for a non-greasy finish, the hybrid body treatment includes mineral oil, cocoa seed butter, and sunflower seed oil. Pro tip: apply the body gel right after your shower while your skin is still damp for maximum moisturization.

There are no questionable ingredients in this lash and brow growth set — only USDA-certified organic, cold-pressed castor oil. The single-ingredient solution supports hair health because it’s naturally rich in fatty acids that improve circulation and seal in moisture. While you can apply castor oil everywhere, from your skin to your nails, this $8 kit comes with a double-sided spoolie and brush applicator for your brows and lashes.

If you’re dealing with a rough skin texture and bumps, but you’re sensitive to the usual chemical and physical exfoliants, consider this body serum. The rinse-off formula offers gentle exfoliation and brightening benefits with rice extract and a carbomer ingredient that’s popular in gommage peels (the latter creates that satisfying ‘peeling’ effect, but it’s really the product grabbing onto dead skin cells). The body serum also actively works to soothe the skin with hypochlorous acid, allantoin, and panthenol.

If your regular lash curler isn’t doing the job, it’s time to try a heated version. Like a curling iron for your lashes, this heated curler helps to lift and shape lashes for a dramatic effect with more staying power. This rechargeable design heats up in 10 seconds, using a silicone pad to evenly distribute the heat without pulling at your lashes. It even has an auto-off feature that shuts the curler off for you after five minutes of inactivity.

Whether you want to dress up your usual ponytail or complement a polished blowout with minimal effort, a hair bow can help. This hair bow set gives you a slightly oversized look in neutral colors that match everything in your wardrobe (though there are plenty of other color combos to choose from, too). They’re also foolproof, as each bow features an attached alligator clip at the back to discreetly fasten your hair accessory into place.

You don’t have to worry about hiding these floral bra straps, which were created to add a decorative touch to tank tops and spaghetti strap dresses. The adjustable and removable straps are the perfect solution for those who can’t get behind a strapless bra, but they also let you switch up your look and accessorize in a new way.

To counteract the drying alcohol ingredients found in all fragrances, this scented body mist includes moisturizing ingredients like glycerin, hyaluronic acid, and aloe vera. But the reason the drugstore fragrance went viral on TikTok is because of the luxurious Vanilla Cashmere scent, which includes notes like whipped vanilla, musk, and sweet cream. It’s less than $15, but still smells incredibly expensive.

Whether you want to streamline your everyday makeup routine or just cut back on the products you pack for a trip, this multi glow balm is sure to come in handy. With a rosy tint and soft shimmer, the balm can be used as a highlighter, blush, or to add a flush of moisturizing color to your lips and eyelids. The castor oil- and jojoba oil-infused formula is nice and creamy, to it’s easy to blend in with your fingertips or a brush.

Those following wellness trends are probably already familiar with NAD+ (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) and its proposed longevity benefits when administered via IVs and injections. But the coenzyme, which is naturally found in the body, is now making the jump to topical skin care products, too — as evidenced in this face and body cream. Pairing NAD+ with a dozen peptides, the daily cream aims to promote firmer, plumper skin by promoting collagen and elastin production.

These pocket-size perfume sticks use the same fragrance notes that helped to make Sol De Janeiro’s body cream a cult-favorite (and winner of multiple beauty awards). But just as compelling is the solid gel texture that makes the fragrances easy to swipe on and much more travel-friendly than the usual spray-on options. Great for stashing in your gym bag or go-to commuter tote.

When you want to fake a more sculpted face, there’s no faster way to do it than with some strategic contouring and highlighting. This double-sided stick has both steps covered with a bronze shade on one side to create the illusion of more pronounced cheekbones or a slimmer nose and a corresponding shimmer-infused formula at the opposite side to bring in some brightness. Both products are a creamy formula you can swipe right onto your face and blend in with your brush (or your fingertips in a pinch).

Take your beauty sleep to the next level by swapping your cotton pillowcase for a satin set. Not only do they feel softer and cooler against the skin, but they also reduce the friction that can contribute to frizzy hair and breakage as you toss and turn. Need another reason to switch to satin? Because satin pillowcases absorb less moisture than their cotton counterparts, they can help your skin stay more hydrated (and prevent your pricey serum from ending up on your pillow).

For $20, you can stock up on this toothpaste that helps to brighten your teeth in a slightly unconventional way. The visible purple pigments aren’t just for fun; they actually work to cancel out yellow tones that are dulling your smile. The daily toothpaste also includes stain-removing ingredients to gradually whiten, as well as fluoride to help prevent cavities.

There are more than a dozen shades of this tinted hair powder to choose from, which means you can blend it into your hair seamlessly. Ideal for covering up unwanted gray roots in between salon appointments, the temporary powder also helps to add density to sparse spots and widening part lines. Plus, it comes in a mirrored compact with its own mini sponge for precision application — even when you’re on the go.

Polish doesn’t have to lead to nail damage. This leave-on treatment looks like a sheer polish, and works to coat nails in a range of buildable, jelly-like shades. But it was really formulated to support nail health and strength with glycolic acid, sweet almond oil, and raspberry extract. Because it’s primarily a nail treatment, you don’t need a base or top coat, and the strengthening polish can be removed with your usual nail polish remover every week or so.

You can use this serum on your face and body to brighten sun spots, post-breakout marks, and general dullness. Wherever you apply it, the serum works to even out your skin tone in two ways. First, it polishes away dead skin cells that interfere with skin clarity, using a blend of chemical exfoliants. Second, it actively works to brighten with a combination of vitamin C and niacinamide.

You hear it all the time: your skin care products should extend to your neck and décolleté. But when it comes to at-home masking, those areas tend to get left out. Not so with this hydrogel sheet mask set, which was specifically designed to contour to the neck and chest. It helps to moisturize and plump up skin in just five minutes with its blend of peptides, panthenol, and adenosine — perfect for applying before slipping on a low-cut dress.

This whitening pen is a great option for anyone who experiences sensitivity with whitening strips or mouthwashes, as you can paint the solution directly onto your teeth and avoid the gums entirely. But because it’s a quick and travel-friendly way to whiten your teeth, it also means you can keep the pen in your bag and tackle stains before they even have time to settle in.

Fans of a no-makeup makeup look will want to add this concealer-serum hybrid to their cart ASAP. The drugstore find has more than 15,000 five-star ratings on Amazon for pairing buildable, medium-coverage color with nourishing formula that feels weightless on the skin. You can use the skin tint to spot conceal or as all-over color, but regardless of where you apply it, you’ll be treating your skin with moisturizing and soothing ingredients like green tea leaf extract, centella asiatica, and tremella mushroom.

This mascara wand may look wimpy, but it packs a major punch when it comes to defining your eyes and making lashes look fuller. Its mini size allows the wand to reach the roots of the lashes for an eyeliner-like effect (minus actually having to apply eyeliner). Formulated with nourishing ingredients like biotin, panthenol, and peptides, it can be worn on its own or as a base for eyeliner and a more voluminous mascara when you want to really bring the drama.

One of the easiest ways to make your eyes look brighter is with a bit of strategically placed liner in a cream or pearl shade. This double-sided pencil gives you both options (one in a matte finish and one in a shimmery finish) to make your eyes really pop. Swipe some at the inner corners of the eyes, or trace the pencil along your lower water line or under your brow bone.

You don’t have to be on the influencer track to appreciate a good photo opp. This mini ring light can be clipped onto your phone on a moment’s notice, allowing you to customize your lighting with three colors and five levels of brightness. The rechargeable light can also clip onto your laptop to give you the most flattering lighting for all of your Zoom meetings.

A satin pillowcase can help to leave you with less frizz and knots in the morning, but when you really want to preserve your hairstyle, sleeping in a satin bonnet is your best bet. This satin-lined bonnet features a stretch elastic band with an adjustable tie to keep your hair secure without digging into your forehead or the back of your neck. It comes in multiple color options, too, so you can match your bonnet to your pillowcase (or your pajamas).

To add warmth or definition to your face with ease — whether you’re at home or on the go — keep this bronzing stick in your makeup bag. A creamy formula in a matte finish is housed on one end to swipe right over the skin, while the opposite side of the stick holds a blending brush. The makeup stick comes in a range of bronze colors to flatter different skin tones, as well as several rose-toned colors for the cheeks and lips.

Save time in your makeup routine by eliminating the need for brow pencils and pomades altogether. This at-home tinting kit lets you subtly darken your brow hairs for a more filled-in effect in a semi-permanent way. Each kit comes with everything you need to expertly mix and apply your color (including a mini brush), and Amazon reviewers report that the tint lasts for several weeks before you need another touch-up.

These skinny satin scarves can be loosely tied around your neck or ponytail to add a pop of color (and a fun pattern) to your looks. But the smaller size is also ideal for tying onto your handbag or weaving through a braided hairstyle for an elevated (and slightly unexpected) way to accessorize.

Another way to make your at-home manicure look more professional is with nail art. But rather than struggle with polish to paint a detailed look, these floral nail stickers let you create any design you can dream up in seconds — from an accent nail with a simple daisy to a full-on garden on every fingertip.

You can use this pocket-size pen to contour and highlight any area of your face, but it’s slimmer design is especially helpful for drawing precise lines on the nose (and around the eyes and mouth). Each pen holds a bronze shade on one side and a brighter cream shade on the opposite end for highlighting — each with a creamy formula that’s easy to blend.

Anyone can benefit from this pore-blurring powder, but its mattifying formula is game-changing for oily skin types that get shiny by midday. The dual-purpose product almost has a balm-like texture, but it blends right into the skin, whether used as an oil-controlling primer or finishing powder. Despite its lavender color, the powder is translucent on the skin, and it comes in a mirrored compact with a mini powder puff to make touch-ups a breeze.

This lip plumper looks like a tinted balm, but click the end of the retractable pen, and you’ll get a layer of gloss that naturally makes lips look more volumized. But if that’s not enough, the glossy balm also helps to plump up lips with moisturizing fruit extracts, hyaluronic acid, and menthol (the latter is behind that tingly sensation and works to increase blood flow by slightly irritating your lips.)

These frilly socks will probably take you back to your childhood, but they’re also an on-trend way to inject some fun into your sneakers and Mary Janes. Each set gives you six pairs of socks that come in a range of neutral and colorful options, from all white to pretty pastels.

The lazy-girl hack for self-tanner, this moisturizer was formulated to be slathered on right after your shower when your skin is still damp. As it softens skin with glycerin, shea butter, and coconut oil, the self-tanner gradually gives you a sun-kissed glow. You don’t have to worry about the self-tanner transferring onto your clothes, either; just be sure to pat your skin dry before you get dressed.

Your basic claw clip gets an elegant upgrade with this pearl-embellished design. At less than $10, each set gives your six clips in a range of sizes that are suitable for both half-up, half-down styles and twisted updos.

These face gems let you create makeup looks to rival your favorite Euphoria character. The stick-on gems come in a variety of sizes for more versatility, and they don’t require a separate glue (unless you plan to reuse them). You can stick the gems in your hair, too, if you want to add some sparkle to a slicked-back ponytail or low knot.
