A transformative luxury lip mask at a steal of a price (30% off)
Tatcha might be one of the most popular J-beauty skin care brands out there. Its years-long cult following swears by nearly everything in the brand's lineup. While it's star player is definitely the Dewy Skin Cream, a hidden gem that has people scrambling to grab it on sale is the Kissu lip mask. It's a game-changer, especially when the air gets dry and the weather gets cooler. Its jelly formula juices up your lips so they don't get dry and cracked, but it doesn't leave them sticky. It also gives them a slight plump.
Bottom Line: Today it's 30% off for the first time since LAST Prime Day and we don't expect it to go on sale again for a while. Grab it while you can!
Laneige Korean Neo blurring powder (30% off list price)
You've probably seen Laneige's cult-fave lip sleeping mask all over the place, but the brand's blurring powder is a relatively new release, making it only the second time it's graced the Prime Day stage. It is an ultra-fine powder blended with blue hyaluronic acid that gives you a smooth, semi-matte finish that can help to absorb oil and blur imperfections, giving you a photo filter look in real life.
Mise En Scene's Perfect hair serum (30% off)
When you think of K-beauty, you probably first think of skin care but surprise: K-beauty has some fire hair care, too. Case en pointe: The Mise En Scene heat serum that adds shine, softens, strengthens and prevents irreversible heat damage. Heat protectant is an essential step before flat-ironing, curling or doing basically anything heat-associated with your hair. Skipping it can create weaker strands that cause real harm immediately or down the line (think breakage, a disrupted curl or wave pattern, lack of body, etc.)
Why you need it: So many report this being a game-changer for their hair in more ways than one and it's 30% for the first time since June!
The TruSkin vitamin C facial serum (45% off)
HuffPost readers can't get enough of this cult-favorite serum. It has over 95,000 five-star ratings and is overflowing with glowing reviews. It has a nourishing formula to help reduce fine lines and sun damage, improve the look of dark spots and leave skin looking and feeling bright and fresh. Amazon's got it labeled as 56% off but per our trackers, it's more of a 45% deal which is still dang good.
Promising review: "I have been using this product at night and sometimes again in the morning. My face and neck do seem to be more 'alive' in appearance, softer and brighter, and I sometimes put very little make on or just a tinted moisturizer on. I am age 51. I have this on autoship and plan to continue to use it to see if I like it long term. Definitely a bargain skin care product." — Angela Dock
Bottom line: It's a great price for a solid prodcut.
Phlur's favorite fragrance in a deodorant (20% off list price)
This deodorant captures the fan-favorite "Father Figure" scent by culty fragrance brand, Phlur. As a huge Phlur fan myself, I think you'll love the slightly masculine, yet floral notes of cassis buds, lush fig, iris, and jasmine, all combined in a musky base. This aluminum-free deodorant uses arrowroot powder, zinc ricinoleate and salicylic acid to keep pits naturally dry and soothed and neutralize odor.
Laneige Water Bank moisturizer (20% off list price)
The popular Laneige Water Bank Blue Hyaluronic Cream moisturizer has a relatively similar ingredient list, texture and finish to Tatcha’s $72 cult-favorite Water Cream, but costs significantly less money, especially during Prime Day. It’s a deliciously hydrating yet surprisingly lightweight cream packed with ingredients that have anti-aging benefits, like blue hyaluronic acid, squalane and ceramides to drench the skin in long-lasting, nourishing hydration that can help to strengthen the skin’s natural moisture barrier and replenish dry, parched skin. It can even help to even out skin tone and texture, revitalizing dull or irritated skin.
A widely endorsed ketoconazole shampoo (14% off list price)
Experts regularly sing the praises of the reviewer-beloved Nizoral shampoo, a "gold-standard" of dandruff treatments, according to one dermatologist, and freelance contributor Essence Gant recently wrote that this powerful shampoo “changed [her] life.”
"The active ingredient in this dandruff shampoo is [1%] ketoconazole, which has antifungal properties," Dr. Brendan Camp explained in previous coverage. And although he admits that evidence is limited, ketoconazole may help to reduce inflammation and the hormonal influences that can contribute to hair loss in addition to helping to alleviate dandruff.
And if you're traumatized by other medicated anti-dandruff shampoos in the past, reviewers assure us that, unlike other market options that smell unpleasant, are harsh on hair and can have it feeling dry and gunky, Nizoral leaves tresses soft and clean-smelling.
Vera Wang Princess (15% off)
Don't let anyone fool you into believing you have to spend hundreds of dollars for a quality perfume that lasts. For anyone who says that, I present Vera Wang Princess. It's become my go-to fragrance, even above my longtime favorite, So Perfect by Marc Jacobs. I even spray Vera Wang Princess on the coats in my closet and every time I walk in there, it smells like pure magic. This baby lasts and for $21, it's worth every penny.
EltaMD UV Daily SPF 40 tinted sunscreen (20% off list price)
This popular SPF which can help shield skin from visible UV rays in overhead lighting that could potentially contribute to common skin conditions like melasma.
A great and clinical option for those who have acne or rosacea, the zinc oxide- and octinoxate-based formula features SPF 40 along with hyaluronic acid to deeply hydrate and nourish skin.
Clean Skin Club disposable facial towels (24% off list price)
Washing your face daily can feel like an arduous task, made more so when you factor in the labor or having to launder washcloths. As if that weren't annoying enough on its own, dermatologist Joshua Zeichner previously told HuffPost, “Items like washcloths can be a breeding ground for microorganisms if they are left out wet and reused.”
The search for a sanitary solution led former HuffPost Shopping writer Haley Zovickian to the cult-favorite Clean Skin Club towels. Plant-based and disposable, they’re designed to help keep skin germ-free post-wash, so you can apply products with a fresh face, clean conscience and without added microorganisms. At press time, the towels were the #1 bestseller on Amazon for facial cleansing cloths and towelettes, and the #2 bestseller in beauty and personal care.
Endorsed by thousands of happy reviewers, these soft, plush and surprisingly large towels are as good as it gets. Some users even noted that they helped to reduce skin irritation. It's no wonder they've become a staple in myriad HuffPost readers' skin care routines, making them worthy of high praise.
Salt & Stone aluminum-free deodorant (20% off list price)
This revered natural deodorant promises a sensitive skin-friendly formula that claims to ward off odor for up to 48 hours, without the use of parabens or aluminum. It contains soothing seaweed extracts, hydrating hyaluronic acid and odor-neutralizing probiotics. It comes in several different fragrances, including saffron and cedar, bergamot and orange blossom and black rose and oud.
Marc Jacobs Daisy Dream Eau de Toilette (30% off)
Floral lovers, your dreams have come true. Really. The ultra-famous, beloved-for-a-reason Marc Jacobs Daisy Dream fragrance is 30% off for Prime Day. Move quickly though.This fragrance sits so long at at full price so any drop is a steal, but approaching nearly half is almost too good to be true.
Keep in mind that this is a eau de toilette, which means it's intentionally a lighter fragrance. Keep scrolling for the heavier lays.
Promising review: "I personally love Marc Jacobs fragrances. The scent is beautiful and light, not over powering and fresh smelling. This is one of my go to sprays." — Jnb21
Milk Makeup's lip and cheek stick (20% off list price)

Mugler's bergamot and amber perfume (35% off list price)
Mugler's Angel is a popular designer fragrance that claims to be both refreshing and sensual with an ambery gourmand base, notes of calabrian bergamot and musky patchouli. Lovers of this scent call out the sweet vanilla notes and say it's very similar to the smell of incense.
A gentle, daily face wash (41% off list price)
Few things are as simple (and as gentle) as this fragrance-free face wash from Cetaphil. It's easy on the skin, keeps your face feeling clean and the push-top bottle makes it simple to dispense. At 16 fluid ounces, you're getting a substantial amount of product, making it an even better deal.

Sunday Riley C.E.O. 15% vitamin C brightening serum (40% off list price)
Sunday Riley, the luxury skin care brand with a cult-like following, is known for using potent infusions of clinically proven ingredients, and its high-ticket product line rarely goes on sale. The brand’s C.E.O. Glow serum contains a nourishing blend of 15% cold-pressed vitamin C, turmeric and evening primrose oil to target premature signs of aging, visibly brighten skin and improve skin texture.
The editor-loved Elemis Pro-Collagen cleansing balm (40% off)
Before you say it, I know, I know, the Elemis Pro-Collagen cleansing balm is on the pricier side, even when it's on sale. Yet, its inclusion in this list should speak to just how worth it we think it is. Loved by a whole pack of HuffPost staffers, it's an oil cleansing balm you can use to remove makeup, clean your face, and keep your skin soft and supple. "I’ve found it’s one of the only products that can effectively cleanse my skin AND nourish it without making me break out," HuffPost Head of Life Kristen Aiken said. "I have perpetually dry skin no matter how much water I drink, and this saves me from drying out (especially in the winter months)." As the weather turns, you'll be happy to have this nourishing balm — especially when it's on sale.
Laneige Glowy lip balm (30% off list price)
The Laniege lip sleeping mask earned its rightful place in the cult beauty hall of fame long ago, but since then, the brand has birthed a new viral contender in the form of a squeezable and juicy balm that's formulated for swiping on the lips any time of day. Available in several flavors, this nourishing and shine-inducing formula is enriched with shea and seed butters for lips that are softer, more hydrated and youthful.

The formula also contains hyaluronic acid, a tried-and-true humectant that draws moisture into the skin.
After a dermatologist that we interviewed for recent story said that the CeraVe cream was one of their “favorite moisturizers in the entire world,” we knew it was more than just a good product.
PanOxyl 10% benzoyl peroxide acne foaming wash (20% off list price)
This face and body wash is very rarely on sale, pretty much only on Prime Day or during Black Friday, making this the perfect time to stock up. Benzoyl peroxide is one of the ingredients you'll often hear dermatologists recommend for acne because of its antiseptic properties, and this PanOxyl acne foaming wash contains the highest FDA-approved OTC percentage of the stuff, at 10%. It kills acne-causing bacteria on contact, preventing further breakouts and addressing current acne, but it also contains moisturizers to keep your skin from drying out.
And it's not just for your face, either — you can also use it on your body to address chest or back acne, or anywhere else you experience breakouts. Reviewers also love how it can eliminate body odor, especially from sweaty armpits.

Iope PDRN Caffeine Shot serum (30% off list price)
If you're not always on TikTok, then you might not be familiar with this powerful Korean serum that's been trending for its use of a unique ingredient not commonly found in American skin care formulations: PDRN. It's an anti-inflammatory and tissue-repairing proprietary drug that is normally injected to help improve the overall skin appearance and skin firmness of the recipient. The Iope serum uses a plant-derived version of this ingredient to help with everything from volume loss, the appearance of fine lines and even helps with acne.
I have covered countless serums in my many years of beauty reporting, but this one covers all my must-have bases. I've been using it for about six months and have noticed that my skin is significantly more hydrated, glowy and bouncy. I make an effort to put it on my neck lines and it definitely helps to blur them as well. I'm a convert for life!
StriVectin tightening neck cream (30% off list price)
This dermatologist-recommended, well-known neck tightening cream by StriVectin contains spilanthol, an ingredient meant to strengthen skin, along with a patented peptide that's exclusive to the brand. Peptides can help improve collagen and elastin to combat skin laxity. Additionally, this neck cream can help brighten and even skin tone, diminishing the appearance of sunspots.
T3 SinglePass Curl X (34% off list price)
This T3 SinglePass curling iron will earn its spot in your drawer. Thanks to its smooth, rounded barrel, it can be used to make curls or waves in your hair that look effortlessly beautiful. The ceramic barrel is extra long, evenly distributing heat and giving your hair shine from a single pass. The temperature regulator helps nix heat fluctuations as you use it.
Aquaphor Healing Balm stick (35% off list price)
I keep at least one of these Aquaphor sticks in my baby's stroller at all times. They come in especially handy when the temperature drops and chapped lips and cheeks plague my little guy the moment we step outside. The classically nourishing Aquaphor formula is easier to apply to his squirmy body in this tube form, and I find myself rubbing it on my elbows and other dry spots as well. I never go anywhere without one.
La Roche-Posay Anthelios Tinted Sunscreen SPF 50 (25% off list price)
In previous reporting, board-certified dermatologist Dr. Sonia Badreshia-Bansal said, "I’m really impressed by the new La Roche-Posay Anthelios mineral tinted SPF 50+ Fluid – it’s sheer, has a universal tint, and offers high UVA/UVB protection with 100% mineral filters. It’s ideal for sensitive skin and has a great, elegant feel." Perfect for those days when you don't want to wear makeup want an easy pick-me-up.
Body Firm Crépe Erase body treatment (20% off list price)
Bioderma's Sensibio micellar water (30% off list price)
As someone doubly blessed with extremely sensitive skin and reactive contact lens-wearing eyeballs, finding a makeup remover that doesn’t make my skin crawl has been a journey. But Bioderma's Sensibio micellar water is as gentle on my skin as it is effective at removing makeup with ease. It easily dissolves makeup, grime and any other icky-ness that has settled onto your skin without stripping its natural moisture barrier or leaving a film of grease afterwards. It’s the cleanest-feeling makeup remover I’ve ever experienced. Everything about this micellar water makes it worthy of a sonnet. Generally, I use it morning and night before a gentle cleanser, but there are times where I just use it as both a makeup remover and cleanser. Usually when I do this, I go in twice with two separate cotton rounds to ensure that my skin is clean as a whistle.
Dyson Supersonic Origin hair dryer (29% off list price)
If you're looking to make a big investment in a great hair dryer, then look no further than the cult-fave Dyson Supersonic. I use my mother's any time I visit her, and am always delighted by the speed at which it can dry my hair. It uses low heat that doesn't fray my ends and my hair always feels silky smooth after use. Reviewers with thick hair agree that it's worth the price tag if you're willing to pony up the cash. It's almost never on sale, so make sure you up your hahir game and save some cash with this purchase.
Bioderma Atoderm cleansing shower oil (25% off list price)
Beloved for their micellar water, European brand Bioderma also makes a highly-rated, super soothing shower oil. Made with niacinamide and agents to replenish lipids, this rinse-off oil is gentle enough for daily use, with reviewers saying they use it on their kids and babies too. From the brand’s Atoderm line, it’s intended for those with dry and sensitive skin, offering cleansing and restoration without irritation. Many reviewers note that Bioderma doesn’t make your shower slippery, feel sticky or “leave an oily film” (as other oils can), so older reviewers or really, anyone worried about falling in the shower feel safer using it. Users also love the product’s gentle clean scent, that’s not overpowering or irritating.
Peter Thomas Roth Instant Firmx eye tightener (30% off list price)
This viral eye-tightening treatment is beloved by people who have chronically saggy or puffy eyes. In previous reporting, Dr. Omer Ibrahim, a board-certified dermatologist and co-founder of Salmalita Cosmetics explained that the Firmx’s instantly tightening results are most likely due to sodium silicates, which are listed fairly high on the product’s list of ingredients. “These ingredients form a film on the skin that contracts once it’s dried. It essentially pulls the skin tight once the product dries down, which only takes a few seconds,” Ibrahim said. It's definitely worth a try while it's deeply discounted.
Also, don't let the 3.7-star rating fool you. We've done some digging and some folks had trouble with knowing the trick to applying this. It's not as simple as swiping. As one Sephora reviewer put it, "you don’t just cake it on and demand perfection."
“I like to take two small dots, about the size of a ladybug each and rub them until warm and silky. If you feel any white bits, remove them. Take the silky product, slightly heated from your rubbing, and blot it onto your skin in areas directly under and around the eye."
Revlon One Step Volumizer hair dryer and styler (31% off list price)
I'd be remiss if I didn't include this cult-fave styler and dryer from Revlon. HuffPost shoppers can't get enough of this popular hair appliance — it's a surefire way to get glossy, sleek hair. It's shaped like a regular round brush with detangling bristles, and comes with three heat settings so you can style, dry and smooth your hair all in one go. It's a must for anyone who loves that freshly blown-out feeling. Once you add this to your hair arsenal, you may not even need any other styling tools cluttering up your bathroom.
L'Oréal Lumi Glotion (37% off list price)
We've formally called L'Oreal's Lumi Glotion the perfect shortcut to perfect skin and one of the most convincing alternatives to the famed Charlotte Tilbury Hollywood Flawless Filter. Available in five flexible shades, this tinted moisturizer is famous for offering sheer yet luminous coverage and promises to melt seamlessly into skin without setting into fine lines or appearing cakey. Wear it alone, under makeup or as a highlighter and enjoy the formula infusion of long-adored ingredients such as shea butter and glycerin, a humectant that draws moisture into the skin for all-day hydration.
Dyson Airwrap Origin hair styler (27% off list price)
If, like me, you've been coveting the Dyson Airwrap since its inception, then I'm delighted to announce that our patience has paid off, because for the first time ever, it is on sale during Prime Day. The Airwrap Origin is smaller than the original, but comes with three styling attachments that will give you the perfect blowout.
Tarte Tartelette XL tubing mascara (50% off list price)
Tarte says this mascara will wrap each eyelash in a "tube" rather than weigh it down with pigment. It's available in black or brown and is formulated with shea butter and castor oil that is conditioning and can help to strengthen and lengthen lashes over time. It's a cult-fave and high-quality makeup product that doesn't normally go on sale.
Sunday Riley A+ retinoid serum (50% off list price)
Sunday Riley’s A+ retinol serum initially caught Shopping writer Tessa Flores' eye because it was advertised as an advanced strength retinoid that was suitable for both individuals with sensitive skin and experienced users of the ingredient that might be in search of a stronger product. The formulation contains a 6.5% retinoid blend, a relatively high percentage compared with other retinol products on the market.
The particular blend in question is composed of a retinoid ester, encapsulated retinol and retinol-alternative extracts derived from blue-green algae, all of which can impart the texture-improving wonders that retinol is known for, without overwhelming the skin and causing irritation. Additionally, an antioxidant known as COQ10 targets the appearance of sun damage while two different humectants soothe redness and draw moisture into the skin.
After using this product consistently for two months, she noticed a significant reduction of keratosis pilaris — her skin's texture was smoother, less red and with fewer clogged hair follicles. She also noticed less congestion in her T-zone, fewer sun freckles and an overall increase in skin plumpness — all without those telltale signs of retinol-induced irritation.
Neutrogena light sesame body oil (12% off list price)
Incorporating a body oil into my body care routine post-shower has truly saved my chronically dry and sensitive skin, so I will definitely be adding a bottle of this to my cart. This classic and lightweight oil by Neutrogena is a persistent drugstore favorite for many and has 4.7 out of 5 stars on Amazon from 30,277 reviewers. Enriched with sesame oil, this sheer and fast-absorbing formula promises to provide instant nourishment, lock in moisture and improve the skin's barrier.
Revision Skincare YouthFull lip replenisher (30% off list price)
We've rarely seen an audience response quite like we did when former HuffPost editor Janie Campbell introduced our readers to the Revision Skincare YouthFull lip replenisher. You purchased this nourishing lip product in droves, and upon closer inspection, it's clear why. Campbell made a compelling case for this balm, calling it a "truly stellar and game-changing product."
Formulated with several peptides, vitamins E and C, green tea and shea butter, it's designed to target visible signs of lip aging like puckering, wrinkles, dryness and dullness.
And while it's not typically like us to recommend such an expensive lip balm, the results speak for themselves. It has a thick, tacky texture that really grips the lips, making it a great overnight treatment.
Hot Tools 24K gold extended barrel curling iron (41% off list price)
Save over 40% on this highly-rated curling iron by Hot Tools, which happens to be one of Flores' favorite hair tool brands of all time for its reliable performance at cost-conscious prices. With just this one tool, you can quickly add touseled curls to your hair for a beachy, casual look. It uses an ionic 24K gold-coated barrel to help prevent static and frizz.
Laneige lip sleeping mask (30% off list price)
You may or may not have known this, but the brand behind this cult-favorite lip mask is Korean and it's adored for its cushiony formula and intensely moisturizing capacity. It's a great way to smooth parched, flaky lips and minimize the appearance of dry, exaggerated lip lines. Available in several scents like gummy bear (my favorite), mixed berry, or peach iced tea, the Laneige lip mask uses a berry mix complex to boost moisture and deliver antioxidant benefits while you sleep, while a blend of shea and seed butters nourishes lips.
Neutrogena Hydro Boost gel cream (40% off list price)
A lot of us are already familiar with the original Neutrogena Hydroboost gel moisturizer, a drugstore winner that's even adored by dermatologists who have previously spoken to HuffPost. The non-greasy formula is super-charged with hyaluronic acid, a powerful humectant that draws moisture into the skin, as well as antioxidants that can protect the skin from premature aging and damage.
Dove Shea Butter Beauty Bar (23% off list price)
Both Flores and I are devoted to the Dove Beauty Bar — it is a superior soap and it has permanent residence in our showers. Flores' particular favorite is this shea butter formula, which is intensely hydrating and deceptively luxurious. The warm and slightly vanilla-ed scent doesn't irritate her sensitive and eczema-prone skin, and, like all Beauty Bar formulas, it's formulated with one-fourth moisturizing cream for a rich and nourishing feel.
Biolage Color Last shampoo (30% off list price)
As someone with very dry, heat-damaged, and color-treated hair, Flores has cycled through tons of shampoos but finds herself always coming back to this perfect Biolage formula. Its only downside is really the price, but for Prime Day, you can score a bottle for 30% off, which she will definitely be doing. Fortified with soybean oil and cleansing stearic acid, this richly lathering wash leaves her hair looking exceptionally voluminous and fuller, feeling soft, and most importantly, prevents her jet black hair from fading.
A313 French pharmacy retinoid cream (25% off list price)
Time and time again, dermatologists have told us that retinoids are an essential ingredient for promoting cellular turnover and stimulating collagen production. A313 is a French pharmacy (and HuffPost) favorite cream containing three different types of retinol, each of them at an effective concentration without being overly irritating. It also features a distinctive texture that's closer to a hydrating balm.
Biodance Bio Collagen overnight sheet mask (30% off list price)
It's possible you've seen some version of these overnight hydrogel masks on TikTok that start off opaque and become transparent as all of the infused goodness absorbs into skin, leaving behind a complexion that's hydrated and glass-like. These Biodance masks contain a collagen peptide that's of a low molecular weight to penetrate deeper into the skin. It also has brightening niacinamide, moisture-trapping hyaluronic acid and galactomyces to improve skin tone and texture.
Embryolisse Lait-Crème Concentré moisturizer and makeup primer (20% off list price)
This $17 French moisturizer is a recent recipient of a HuffPick, which is HuffPost's official shopping awards given only to exceptional products that we believe deserve our seal of approval. The Embryolisse Lait-Crème Concentré has been suggested to us by makeup artists and dermatologists and has been integral to TikTok-viral trends like skin flooding. Flores was persuaded to try the all-purpose wonders of this face cream several years ago, and can confirm the hype is well deserved. If you’re a makeup-wearer, you know that when your base isn’t right, your foundation can pill, products will separate and dry patches will look woefully exaggerated. Many claim that the shea butter-based formula functions both as a nourishing hydrator and the perfect makeup primer thanks to the rich and emollient texture that prevents foundation from sinking into fine lines. This also makes it a great option for mature skin, one makeup artist previously told HuffPost.
Estée Lauder Advanced Night Repair serum (15% off list price)
Some products are reliable and timeless, like Estee Lauder's Advanced Night Repair serum. This renowned night serum has more than earned its legions of devoted fans, with one reviewer stating they noticed a difference after just three nights of use, while another called it magic for softening and tightening the skin. It uses peptides, antioxidants and nourishing, hydrating ingredients that can help reduce fine lines and wrinkles while hydrating, strengthening and evening out skin. It's fast acting and won't let you down.
Dermora foot peel mask (28% off list price)

In just two weeks, feet are smoother, more hydrated, and renewed. This set comes with two sets of treatments and the booties fit most foot sizes. You'll want to jump on this deal to have smooth and presentable feet for summer.
Tirtir satin cushion foundation (30% off list price)
Videos of this unique K-beauty cushion foundation in skin-perfecting action have rapidly spread across social media in the past several months. It would appear that just one press of the TirTir formula gives skin of all textures and types a perfect satin finish that disguises flaws without feeling heavy. Available in over 32 shades, the TirTir foundation is enriched with nourishing extracts to keep skin looking and feeling healthy.
VT Cosmetics Cica Reedle Shot 300 mircro-needling replacement (56% off list price)
Microneedling is an expensive and slightly uncomfortable in-office procedure that can do wonders for hyperpigmentation, acne scarring, fine lines, and more. While not always a feasible option for most, the VT Cosmetics Cica Reedle Shot 300 is quickly becoming a much-talked-about alternative with TikTokers who are up to date with the latest in K-beauty. According to the brand, this innovative formula uses a "micro-needling mechanism that promotes instant skin enhancement for a smoother, softer feel." This component also maximizes product absorption for better results.
Supergoop Unseen invisible sunscreen (20% off list price)
This cult-favorite sunscreen from Supergoop is arguably the product that put this trendy sun care brand on the map. It's renowned for its clear, lightweight and unscented formula that won't leave behind an irritating white cast but still offers broad-spectrum protection. It's also oil-free formula, great for anyone who might have sensitive or acne-prone skin, and layers seamlessly beneath makeup or can be worn on its own.
Crest 3D Professional Whitestrips (35% off list price)
Medicube Zero Pore pads (51% off list price)
Few items have impressed me as much as these cult-favorite toning facial pads. I’ve ditched my traditional AHA serums for these bad boys, and my skin has never looked better. The Medicube pads are designed to help exfoliate, balance and brighten skin while reducing oil production, minimizing breakouts and refining the look of pores. They are formulated with powerful alpha and beta hydroxy acids like white willow bark, vitamin C and calming botanical extracts like lavender to soothe skin.
My skin is softer, smoother and has a really noticeable glow. Most importantly, I’ve detected a decrease in melasma, which has plagued me since my pregnancy. They’re incredibly potent, and it’s very obvious to me why they’re so popular. I’ve tried out other exfoliating pads and can confidently say that these are just as, if not more, effective at a fraction of the price. They've been a game-changer for my skin in the last couple of months, and I just hope they don't sell out now that the secret's out!
Cosrx snail mucin serum (48% off list price)
When we first started hearing about this viral Korean beauty product, I figured the “snail” designation was beauty-speak for something else, but… no, there’s actual snail slime in this stuff and Flores can personally confirm that it works incredibly well. (Snail mucin has been used in cosmetics since the 1980s, when Chilean snail farmers observed that when their skin was in contact with snails, it was softer, and cuts seemed to heal faster.) For a few years now, this incredibly hydrating serum has remained a steadfast staple in Flores' and countless others' skin care routines for its ability to address dryness and breakouts and just generally improve the look of skin.

According to the makers of this under-the-radar cream, you can expect it to firm, lift and tighten sagging or crepey skin, especially in difficult areas like the neck and chest. Based on reviews, there might be something to these claims.
“My neck looked like it had an indentation in it, surrounded [by] wrinkles. At 66, I thought it would not be this way until I got much older. I do not take the sun," one Amazon reviewer wrote. "I went for the cream and paid the money after very good reviews.. omg after a few weeks the neck looked much better - I am so happy and surprised. That indentation went away and wrinkles were lifted. This is seriously a cream I will use for the rest of my life.”
