Dior Addict Lip Glow Balm
I’m hardly alone in my passion for this truly unique lip product. Numerous friends, who’ve purchased it (per my enthusiastic recommendation), swear by it thanks to the dimensional, almost holographic sheen it delivers, which gives lips a plumper, softer appearance in a quick swipe.
Also on sale, don’t miss Dior’s equally noteworthy Lip Glow Oil, which InStyle beauty editor Tamim Alnuweiri and I are both partial to.
Armani Beauty Luminous Silk Natural Glow Foundation
It’d be easier to list the celebrities who haven’t worn this red carpet staple, which gives skin a filtered, impossibly smooth appearance. Sydney Sweeny, for instance, has donned it, while Dakota Johnson, Alessandra Ambrosio, and Lea Michelle, among others are also recent wearers of the fan-favorite formula, per the brand. I’ve finished at least five bottles of the stuff, though I try to conserve it for ultra-special occasions — because, yes, it’s that good.
Yves Saint Laurent Touche Éclat All-Over Brightening Concealer Pen
Like a beam of light in a stick, this liquid concealer is more of a natural-looking highlighter. Swipe it on the brow bone for an instant eye lift, over the cupid’s bow for a lip-enhancing effect, and in the corners of the eyes for a bright, fresh-faced appearance.
Sunday Riley C.E.O. Glow Vitamin C and Turmeric Face Oil
Virtually every Sunday Riley product I’ve tried has surpassed my expectations — but this oil is particularly special. After introducing it to my sister, best friend, and 71-year-old mom, all have come to covet the brightening elixir, as I do. A few drops deliver instant radiance; over time, expect dark spots to fade, skin to even out, and compliments to flood in. I’ve concluded that it’s among the most impressive products from the Oprah-used brand.
Anastasia Beverly Hills Dipbrow Eyebrow Gel
Eyebrow mogul Anastasia Soare, guru behind many of Hollywood’s most enviable brows, has built an empire with her user-friendly, arch-enhancing products. This tinted gel, which comes in numerous natural-looking shades, is perfect for securing errant hairs and defining sparse brows in a few quick swipes.
Stila Stay All Day Waterproof Liquid Eyeliner
Fact: You’ll never try a more steadfast liquid liner than Stila’s aptly named Stay All Day Liner. Gliding on via a flexible felt tip, this formula is behind some of my sharpest cat eye looks — many of which have prevailed through sweat, tears, rain, and accidental lid-rubbing. I hate to play favorites, but I have to admit: It’s the best liquid liner I’ve ever tried.
Nars Creamy Radiant Concealer
Among the first concealers I ever tried, this smoothing, camouflaging liquid has remained a mainstay in my collection and a must-have for freshening shadowy under-eyes when I’ve skimped on sleep. Unsurprisingly, InStyle writers swear by this stuff; plus, the formula is a go-to for Jennifer Lopez — enough said.
