1. Maybelline Master Chrome Metallic Highlighter
Hands down one of the most glowy and blinding drugstore highlighters out there, loved by beauty gurus like NikkieTutorials, Jeffree Star and Laura Lee. It's super pigmented and totally comparable to Charlotte Tilbury's Bar of Gold Highlight.
Shop it here for $10.39
2. Clinique Dramatically Different Moisturizer
Ah, the yellow bottle. Many years (and some lines) later, we still gravitate toward this classic lotion because, well, it works.
Shop it here for $27.00
3. Rimmel Kohl Kajal Waterproof Eyeliner
Guys, this has nearly 1,000 positive reviews on Target alone—we’re not at all surprised given how silky and budge-proof it is. Did we mention it’s only four dollars?
Shop it here for $4.00
4. NARS Orgasm Blush
The name says it all.
Shop it here for $30.00
5. Maybelline Great Lash Mascara
Most likely the first mascara we ever used... and we still go back to it.

6. Living Proof PHD Dry Shampoo
Fast-absorbing powders that soak up grease, while a time-released fragrance basically Febreezes your strands. Perfect for on the go.
Shop here for $22.00
7. Urban Decay Eye Shadow in Smog
While it’s best known for its palettes, some of us might not need (or use) all 12 shades—which is why this coppery bronze shimmer alone is perfect for everyday wear.
Shop here for $19.00
8. Dr. Jart Water Replenishment Sheet Mask
If you only try one sheet mask, make it this one. No matter your skin type or concern, it will leave your complexion dewy and bright for hours afterward.
Shop it here for $8.00
9. Benefit Boing Industrial Concealer
Another favorite because it truly is industrial and will cover everything. Thank us later.
Shop it here for $15.00
10. Smith’s Rosebud Salve
It’s super cheap and you can use it everywhere—on lips, on brows and to tame flyaways. Even your cuticles will thank you.
Shop it here for $6.00
11. Anastasia Brow Wiz
Cult-favorite brow pencil that’s easy to use and flatters all who do.
Shop here for $21.00
12. Dove Beauty Bar
We’ve used all of the fancy shower gels and soaps under the sun, but always go back to this bar because of the way it makes our skin smell (clean, not cloying) and feel (soft, not stripped).
Shop here for $4.00
13. Neutrogena Makeup Remover Cleansing Towelettes
There’s a reason why these wipes are in every makeup artist’s kit: They remove even waterproof mascara without any tugging.
Shop here for $7.00
14. Weleda Skin Food
Though this thick salve is meant to tend to dry patches of skin (which it does exceptionally well, by the way), it can also be used as a mask, a spot treatment for inflamed pimples and even a highlighter.
Shop here for $19.00
15. Elizabeth Arden Eight Hour Cream
A true workhorse, this thick salve has gotten us out of many a beauty emergency. From chapped lips to peeling cuticles, there’s little it can’t fix.
Shop here for $22.00
16. L’Oréal Paris Elnett Satin Hairspray
A go-to for pro hairstylists (and our moms) for many years, this classic spray keeps every last strand in place without so much as a crunch.
Shop here for $15.00
17. Cetaphil Daily Face Cleanser
A dermatologist favorite for good reason, this gentle cleanser gets the job done without causing any irritation. The seven-dollar price tag is just an added bonus.
Shop here for $7.00
18. Olay Regenerist Micro-Sculpting Cream
It’s the number one selling anti-aging moisturizer thanks to its highly effective ingredients and affordable cost. It’s also a great place to start if you’re overwhelmed by all the options.
Shop it here for $29.00
19. Stila Stay All Day® Waterproof Liquid Eye Liner
The waterproof liquid liner with over 2,800 five-star reviews on Amazon and consistently on Sephora's best sellers list, Stila's Liquid Eyeliner has a cult following that you need to be a part of.

It's all in the name. Milani's Make It Last Setting Spray last 16 hours and gives a beautiful dewy finish to the skin. We can't complain about the price either.
