Promising review: "The hype is SO worth it. Literally looks beautiful on me (olive skin) and my roommate (who's giving porcelain doll). I legit put this on with a powder blush on top and NO SETTING SPRAY because I ran out, and it lasted a full night out." —petalparker

Promising review: "The only concealer I've ever repurchased. I have never found a concealer I loved until I tried this one, and I've tried so many. It's so creamy and hydrating and provides a beautiful medium coverage. Every concealer creases —  creaseless is not a thing lol — but this has the most minimal creasing and such a hydrated finish that it's not super noticeable." —vcaguindagan

Promising review: "This is a true long-wear setting spray. It locks makeup in place and controls oil extremely well, especially in the T-zone. On my combination skin, it keeps everything matte and transfer-resistant for hours. It’s more on the matte side, so best if you want a very polished, long-lasting finish. Ideal for events or long days." —krisperdomo

Promising review: "I saw so many people loving this brow gel, so I decided to give it a try. It deserves all the hype it gets! It holds strong but leaves no funky cast to your brows." —TePug

Promising review: "The texture is super soft and velvety, which makes it really gentle on the skin — especially under the eyes. It picks up just the right amount of powder and distributes it evenly without looking cakey." —Sneh25

Promising review: "Over two years ago, I switched to using this and their BB cream. The most natural product ever. THIS IS YOUR SKIN. And it doesn’t move, come off, or look tacky ever. I have a stockpile just to make sure I don’t run out." —Stevilynne

Price: $26+ (available in two sizes and three shades)

Promising review: "LOVE! On my second one. I feel like a makeup wizard using it. My makeup has never looked better/more natural." —ajeschk

Promising review: "Just switched to this mascara, and I am very pleased. Washes off cleanly with water — yet does not smudge like most washable mascaras. Adds great density and length to my lashes. Makes my eyes pop. Love it." —rosejem

Price: $17+ (available in two colors and two sizes)

Promising review: "This is my third YSL blush, and I honestly can’t wait to use these blushes. It’s so buttery, smooth, long-lasting, and blurring! Love the colors too! 'Honeymoon' is perfect for an olive neutral skin tone like me!" —fragolla

Price: $46 (available in two finishes and 12 shades)

Promising review: "Wow 10/10. 'Almond drip' is really pigmented and smells divine, like a hazelnut café mocha. Perfect, thick, long-lasting, and nourishing. Btw, Juicy Tubes are unique because each color has its own scent to go with the color. LOVE." —Drea111

Promising review: "I’ve been buying this for years! Long-lasting, great quality, and takes shine away immediately. Also, beautifully packaged." —AmyC27

Price: $29+ (available in two sizes and four shades)

Promising review: "Great eye product. Stays in place all day long, does not crease; the color is beautiful for an everyday look. It is well worth the money." —Alex0405

Price: $39 (available in two finishes and 18 shades)

Promising review: "The most beautiful finish for my dry skin! Makes me look younger and glowing in photos. It’s a skin tint — so don’t expect full coverage — but if you want 'your skin but better,' this is it." —nm1188

Promising review: "Such a beautiful color. Goes on seamlessly and gives a beautiful glow. Can’t believe it took me so long to try it!" —stephb2003

Promising review: "Very intimidated by this until I actually had it. It's so easy and works perfectly. I will not use another eyebrow pencil, this is the best!!" —courtneyd123

Promising review: "Obviously very pricey, but I think it will last a long time. I’m a beginner, and this palette is very user-friendly. The shades work surprisingly well for me, and I’m very fair and cool! Love it xx." —dohertybella 

Price: $54 (available in four color combinations) 

Promising review: "I absolutely love these! Easy to use and blends out incredibly easily. These are perfect for beginners and pros alike and last all day!" —cassiemariexox

Price: $17+ (available in two sizes, two finishes, and 22 colors)

Promising review: "This blush is so cute!! It is a nice tone and has some shine to it, so under the sun it looks really nice. I saw my friend wearing it, and I loved it so much on her; I ended up getting one for myself, too." —mmmeryem

Promising review: "Best eyeliner I’ve used. Beautiful color, glides on, and blends nicely if you want it to. Doesn’t smudge too easily and doesn’t irritate my waterline." —SerenaMarieG

Price: $23 (available in five finishes and 35 colors)

Promising review: "As soon as I dabbed this into my undereye area for the first time, I knew I was in love. This color corrector is creamy, pigmented, blends like a dream, and lasts all day. I have dry upper and lower eyelids, and most concealers/color correctors accentuate my texture, but this is absolutely stunning. Highly recommend!" —kristenanto

Promising review: "On my second bottle! For aging skin, this is a great hydrating under-glow/primer. I’ve also worn alone with no product over it. Have used foundation cream and serums on top. Doesn’t irritate my skin or cause breakouts. Has a scent but doesn’t bother me." —MB6210

Promising review: "A classic. Easy to sharpen. Every woman should have this as an essential — because no matter what lipstick shade — having this as a liner and base makes your lips look full, sultry, and kissable. If a shade is not looking quite right, this is what you’re missing." —Dianairiz

Promising review: "My new favorite contour!! I have trouble finding good contours because they are always patchy or 'muddy,' but I love this one! It’s blends super easily and is super creamy!" —pinkypie4444

Price: $16+ (available in two sizes and seven shades)

Promising review: "Lovely colors and like silk on the lips. A bit pricey, but now a staple in my bag in a few colors." —aarpjessk

Promising review: "Hands down my favorite palette. The shades are gorgeous, but what really stands out is how flawlessly they blend. You can have a perfect eyeshadow look in no time at all. Also, the pigment is great, so you don’t have to use a lot of product." —Tattooed1

Price: $44 (available in three color combinations)

Promising review: "This lip gloss is absolutely beautiful! The most perfect color and very moisturizing. I feel so pretty when I wear it. 10/10!!!" —Alliejthomas

Price: $15+ (available in three sizes, two finishes, and 20 colors)

Promising review: "Absolutely the nicest foundation I’ve ever used. Glides on so smoothly — almost a watery texture — but full coverage. Love love love. Note: scented (but I like the smell!)." —lorcow
