Must Buy Makeup Products
You know that feeling when you find a makeup product so good that you kind of want to gatekeep it? But then you remember that sharing is caring, and your friends deserve to glow just as much as you do? Yeah, this is that list.
Rhode to Moisturized Skin
It’s official: Hailey Bieber’s skin is the moment, and it’s all thanks to Rhode’s Milky Face Products. Because let’s face it (pun intended), if we can’t all have her supermodel genetics, we can at least get that Bieber glow—one drop of Rhode’s Barrier Restore Cream at a time.
What’s the secret? It’s that perfect combination of hydration, light-as-air texture, and the promise of skin that feels like silk sheets after a facial. The Peptide Glazing Fluid is basically bottled dew, and the Barrier Restore Cream is like wrapping your face in the coziest blanket—except it doesn't leave you feeling greasy. And the Rhode Milky Cleanser? It’s the gentle giant we all needed in our routines. No harsh stripping, just soft, creamy vibes that say, “I drink my water and mind my business.”
I don’t want to oversell it (okay, yes, I do), but if you’ve ever wished for that lit-from-within glow, this is your go-to. The cool girl clean aesthetic, but make it skin deep.
The Holy Grail: Tinted Moisturizer
Foundation? Sure, it’s great, but tinted moisturizer is like your chill friend who still makes you look flawless without all the effort. It gives you that even, glowy skin but feels like a cozy, breathable sweater. Look for one with SPF because we’re all about that two-in-one convenience. NARS, Fenty, or Ilia—take your pick.

Cream Blush: For That "I Woke Up Like This" Glow
Blush in 2024 is all about that dewy, lit-from-within glow, and cream blush is the key. Dab a little on your cheeks and blend with your fingers for that natural flush, like you’ve just returned from a yoga retreat (even though you haven’t left your couch in days). Look for products like Rare Beauty’s Soft Pinch Blush or Fenty Beauty’s Cheeks Out Freestyle for color that looks like your skin, but better.
Bonus: Dab a little on your lips for a monochromatic look.

Brow Gel: Because Brows Speak Louder Than Words
In 2024, brows are still having their moment—strong, natural, and (thankfully) not overly plucked like the early 2000s. Brow gel is the must-have to tame, shape, and fluff your brows into submission. Whether you’re going for a laminated brow look or just need to keep those rogue hairs in check, a good brow gel like Benefit’s Gimme Brow or Glossier Boy Brow will make sure your arches are always on point.

Go OUAI Split Ends
You know that feeling when your hair is giving off major dry, frizzy, “I’ve been through a lot” vibes? Enter: the Ouai Hair Mask, aka your hair’s new best friend. It’s like a spa day for your strands, except you don’t have to leave your bathroom (or change out of your sweats).
The minute you slather this creamy, dreamy mask on, it’s like your hair exhales. Whether you’ve been straightening, curling, bleaching, or just, you know, living, Ouai’s got your back. The ingredients? Luxe. The results? Glossy, smooth, and—dare I say—hair commercial-worthy.
Best part? It smells like heaven in a tub. Trust me, after 10 minutes with this mask, you’ll be flipping your hair like you’re starring in your own shampoo ad.
