I’ve always loved getting ready—almost as much as the actual going-out part. There’s just something about considering all the possibilities, and coming up for air 15 minutes later with an unexpected, but totally gorgeous makeup look. It’s fun, carefree, and a little exciting in a can’t-wait-to-see-what-happens kind of way.
While I don’t get dressed up all that often (I love my sweats!), I still enjoy that feeling of anticipation—and discovering a new beauty product gives me that. What will I wear this with? Where will I wear it? Will this be the thing that changes my whole look?
That’s the kind of discovery we had in mind with this month’s box. You’ve got your choice of skin care-meets-makeup drops to experiment with a bronzy, glowy, or rosy finish. Wispy falsies that let you decide exactly how much lash drama you’re in the mood for. And a sparkly chrome eye shadow stick, plus so much more. Whether you have a big event or no plans at all, I hope you have fun experimenting!
Why We Love It: Each palm-sized bottle is packed with glow-inducing magic to give your skin that instant something—whether it’s an illuminating finish, a sun-kissed bronze, or a rosy flush of color—all with hydrating glycerin and nourishing marula seed oil that do extra work behind the scenes.
How You’ll Use It: These formulas are forgiving, so don’t be afraid to experiment: Shake and sprinkle a few drops into your moisturizer, mix them with your foundation, or wear solo. Have fun!
Why We Love It: With light-reflecting pigments that make your eyes sparkle the second you swipe it on, this buildable, cream-to-powder shadow is super easy to apply and blend. No brush needed!
How You’ll Use It: If constant Zoom meetings and FaceTime chats have taught us anything, it’s that good lighting matters. Dab this at the inner corners of your eyes, highlight your brow bone, or swipe and smudge all over your lids for an instant boost of shimmer.
Why We Love It: After just one sniff of this perfume, we realized that Kylie Jenner must smell really, really good. Cosmic 2.0 mixes juicy pear and spicy pink pepper with sweet vanilla orchid and warm amber for a scent that’s instantly a vibe.
How You’ll Use It: Keep this tiny vial inside your purse or carry-on and spritz it on your pulse points (wrists and neck) before drinks, after dinner, in the Uber, or whenever you need a refresh.
Why We Love It: Get ready for people to ask, “Wait, are those your real lashes?” These wispy clusters add fluffy, believable bulk without that telltale lash band giving away your falsie secret. How you answer those questions is up to you.
How You’ll Use It: Whether you’re going for a little extra height on the ends or creating a high-glam look, these lashes can be applied individually (with the kit’s accompanying tweezers), so you can be in total control of the final look.
Why We Love It: Sephora has cracked the code on the kind of lipstick you’ll want to wear every day. This versatile tube gives lips a juicy wash of color and light-catching shine, but applies with the ease of a balm. We’ll take two, please!
How You’ll Use It: Because it’s so easy to apply, you can swipe it on without a m…
