As someone who lives and breathes all things beauty (and spends far too much time swatching, testing, and getting totally sucked into the latest product drops), my standards are high. With fresh formulas and must-have products constantly hitting the shelves, only the truly standout ones earn a permanent spot in my routine. So when a product makes the cut, you know it’s really good.
Lately, I’ve been reaching for the same go-to products that give me an effortlessly put-together vibe with minimal time and maximum glow. From skin-perfecting essentials for no-makeup makeup looks to the beauty must-haves that live in my bag (and get reapplied in Ubers, bathrooms, and everywhere in between), here are the 15 products I swear by to look fresh, awake, and just the right amount of dewy.
