I love using it under my makeup for an extra glowy boost, but also adore it on its own.” — Danielle Sinay, beauty & wellness writer $40 See On Sephora

Mario Badescu Coconut Body Oil Macy's “Formulated with coconut oil , argan oil, and rice bran oil, this body elixir is nutrient-rich and incredibly hydrating without leaving any greasy residue.

PHLUR Apricot Privée Eau de Parfum Sephora “ While Phlur's newest scent bursts open with juicy and nostalgic apricot and plum, the fruitiness quickly evolves into something more sultry.

The Ultimate Stinky Pimple Treatment Dr. Barbara Sturm “Once you get over the pungent smell, you'll be greeted with a lightweight treatment made of pre- and probiotics, panthenol, and allantoin to reduce acne inflammation and redness while also treating it. My pimples vanished overnight after one use.” — Audrey Noble, beauty writer $35 See On Dr. Sturm

Saie Hydrabeam Brightening + Hydrating Under Eye Concealer Sephora “This concealer not only brightens my complexion and conceals pretty well, but it also contains the nourishing ingredients squalane and glycerin to keep skin hydrated.

Instant Brightening Waterline Pencil Victoria Beckham Beauty “When a busy mom and entrepreneur like Victoria Beckham shares a makeup trick for looking more awake, I take notes.
