A cute lil’ lip stain pen ideal for anyone who wants a subtle but gorgeous lip color. Reviewers say it also makes their lips look more plump.

Promising review: “I’m happy I waited to write this review. When I first opened and tried this gloss bar I thought, ‘Eh, it’s adorable but no better than any other lip balm.’ There was nothing special about the color, smell, or flavor. Then I applied it a few times over the course of the day as I would with any lip balm and it gave me this beautiful, natural-looking lip stain. My lips looked plumper too. It was so pretty. My boyfriend complimented me on my ‘lipstick’ and he almost never notices that kind of thing. I would buy these again or a multi-pack to try different shades.” —Kimberly Boyadjian

Promising review: “I will admit that I am not the best when it comes to knowing what skincare products to buy (and that the only reason I chose this one was because I heard that the Kardashians use it), but I swear by this stuff.

A dual-ended eyeliner stamp to ensure you get a perfect wing-tipped look in the car, on the train, or just at home for those of us with shaky hands (me).


Amazon, amazon.com

Promising review: “OK, so I am as shaky as shaky gets when it comes to putting eyeliner on…but this is a miracle sent from above! It honestly is the most amazing eye makeup product I own at the moment. It is as easy as it sounds. Literally. I like that it is double-ended and you have two pens: one for the left eye and one for the right. The opposite end on both is just every day liquid liner pen, but it goes on soooo much smoother than any other liquid liner I’ve tried or owned.” —ˑMerkuryˑVolkanicˑ.

A pack of small but mighty transparent spiral hair ties to give you a strong ponytail hold without pulling and prying on your hair. Once you try these you may never use another hair tie again!

Amazon

Promising review: “I’m obsessed with these! I have thick curly hair so rubber bands and the ribbon elastics always dent my hair. Even when I straighten my hair, those type of hair ties also dent my hair. With these coils, my hair is secure whether it’s straight or curly. When I remove it, my hair is easily fixed back into place. These do stretch out after you use it for a while, but it is easily fixed. If you blow-dry them, the heat will cause it to shrink back to its original size and it is as good as new!” —Stephanie S.

Thank you!” —Christan

Amazon

Promising review: “First off if you have extremely oily skin, this. is. it. I was so tired of getting blotting powder/wipes. It felt wasteful and always left residue on my face. I saw this on TikTok and NEEDED it. Not only is it affordable, but it’s washable which helps you save money and be less wasteful. After my first use, I was in love. It felt like the holy grail had been delivered to my front doorstep. Now, it doesn’t pick up everything but it does make it more matte and gives you a natural look. I am so excited this product exists and I already feel more confident.” —Kelsey B.

Amazon, amazon.com

Promising review: “This is great for a blowout or daily use on damp towel-dried hair. Apply a small amount to damp hair ends (as in fragile areas that are prone to breakage) and dry the strands. I have mid-back length hair and apply only a dime-sized dab mostly to the ends of my hair. It will keep the ends smooth and shiny. It smells great and keeps your hair smooth and supple. I was introduced to this by my hairdresser who is top-notch.” —Goldie Locks

A set of colorful glass nail files reviewers adore for filing down nails without weakening or over-filing. Truthfully I had no idea glass nail files existed, and these sound like a dream!

Vaga

I love colorful products because I am prone to losing EVERYTHING and bright shiny things help LOL, I need to give these a whirl!

Promising review: “Very pretty and very good quality glass nail files. I love the variety of colors in the files and the fact that they each came in their own plastic sleeve. The files themselves are etched and I look forward to a long-lasting product. Glass files hold out much, much longer than your standard emery board file and run a finer grit as well. There is less splitting and peeling than an emery board. I am perfectly happy with a fine-grit that promotes healthy natural nails in such a nice array of colors.” —Erica Lemieux

Promising review: “I love this organic hair pomade. It is so hard to find a quality organic hair product. I keep my hair fairly high and tight but need a thick pomade to help shape it and give it a sharp finished look, and I need it done in five minutes or less. This pomade is perfect in that it meets all my needs…it’s organic, feels good, no flaking, smells good, and looks good. So yeah, I love it… Thank you for an awesome product!” —ST

Glossier

Promising review: “I’m surprised I don’t see this recommended for older skin all the time. I love the way this floats over my pores instead of highlighting them like foundations with more coverage. I can’t believe it took me so long to figure out what I needed was LESS coverage to fix that issue. This evens out my skin tone just enough. It still looks like my skin, freckles, and all. It is pretty dewy by the end of the day, but it still looks beautiful, and I’m learning to embrace the dew. I highly recommend this for any age.” —Dawn

Get it from Glossier for $26 (available in 12 shades).

A double-sided edge brush for gently laying down and shaping your edges. Reviewers swear by it working better than a toothbrush could ever dream of.


amazon.com, amazon.com

Promising review: “I didn’t see the point in buying an edge control brush with a comb attachment. I figured I could just go to the dollar store and get a soft bristle toothbrush and call it a day. Boy was I wrong! I brought this product on a whim due to the price. I’m glad I did. I will be buying another one for my daughter. I especially love the comb attachment. It makes swooping the tiniest baby hairs a breeze. The brush is a bit hard for my taste but it’s gentle enough not to grab and rip out hair.” —Tina

Fluide is a queer-run, trans-friendly beauty brand on a mission to make makeup and beauty products accessible and fun for folks of all skin-tones and genders.

Promising review: “I fell in love with the Roxy gloss a few weeks ago so just had to try this shade too. It is totally different than Roxy! Not as shimmery/glittery and more of a neutral-blue tint than the rosy glow of Roxy. I like them both and this is more subtle, which is nice for those days when you don’t feel like sparklin’ so bright.” —Chloe T.
