“This is the G.O.A.T. of eyeshadow palettes. The color payoff is bright, buildable, and you get so many different finishes — what more can you ask for? I'm really excited to bring these pastel pinks, blues, and purples into my fall looks.” — Audrey Noble, beauty writer

Eye Serum with BL+ Complex
Blue Lagoon Skincare
“While I typically skip products targeted to the eye area, this mineral-rich formula sinks into my skin and gives it a little boost of radiance. I like to pop it in the fridge so the metal rollerball applicator is even more cooling on my tired eyes.” — Audrey Noble, beauty writer
$180

“This ticks all the boxes I want in a mascara: a brush that's both flat (for length) and curved (for thickness) and a formula that creates *zero* clumps. It coats and curls each lash really well. Oh, and bonus points for being refillable.” — Hilary Shepherd, beauty writer
