"My lashes are fairly dark and full to begin with, so I tend to like lengthening mascaras more than thickening ones. If I could be bothered, I'd do semipermanent false lashes, because what I like best of all is a lush eyelash that looks free of makeup. I appreciated Stretchex's non-clumpy formula. It looked even better after I used a mascara-free mini brush to comb off any excess."

"My skincare regimen doesn't entail 10 steps like that of many Korean women, but when I do take the time to tend to my complexion, I like to make it count. Used after toners, serums, and moisturizer, this opalescent formula seals in the good-for-you ingredients, adds a major boost of antioxidants, and primes your face for makeup."

"I readily admit that the main reason I bought Tony Moly's facial mist was the fact that it came packaged like a miniature bunny. I'm a sucker for anything twee, and as a result, portions of my vanity resemble a toy chest. I would still be happy with my purchase if the contents turned out to be swamp water because the rabbit makes me smile, but the Pocket Bunny Moist Mist is actually very refreshing."

"I'm a believer that a woman can never have too many serums or creams. Both the essence and cream were dense and soothing but didn't feel heavy. By the end of the day, my complexion, which tends to be on the shinier side, looked more glowy than oil-slicked and still felt dewy to the touch. I'd call that a win."

"Contouring may be the stuff of complete, Sephora-level ubiquity at this point, but for those in whose hearts it still strikes fear, look no further than the Dr. Jart+ BB Mate Contouring Kit. It's made up of three nonthreatening, lip gloss-esque little tubes: a highlighter, a neutralizing medium shade, and a bronze contour color. The cream formulations and doefoot applicators make this set a snap, even by my relatively low-maintenance standards."

"My sister originally gave me this hand cream because my AIM username as a child was something along the lines of PandaPal. Apparently, I really loved pandas? Embarrassing online monikers aside, it became my go-to lotion during New York's brutal winter. It has a sweet, slightly fruity scent; makes my hands and face feel incredibly soft; boosts my mood; and claims to lighten imperfections like age spots or the odd curling-iron burn."
