As a beauty editor who has been testing, reviewing, and writing about products for nearly seven years, it takes a lot to excite me. Call me jaded, but there just aren’t many products or sales with the ability to make my beauty-loving blood bubble like it used to before I became completely immersed in the industry. However, every so often, game-changing products and a game-changing sale at a favorite retailer collide, and I want to practically scream with excitement. Such was the case when I heard about Shopbop’s epic spring beauty sale.
Until May 29 (yup, get a move on!) you can score 15% off on the retailer’s best-of-the-best beauty offerings by using the code BEAUTY15 at checkout. Shopbop’s beauty selection is sublime, so you really can’t go wrong with whatever you decide to plop in your cart. That being said, I couldn’t help but go a little crazy and come up with my very only list of 37 iconic products I know for a fact you’ll regret not buying while they’re temporarily discounted. Curious? Keep scrolling!
Starface’s instantly recognizable pimple patches are the cutest way to treat a pimple while simultaneously staving off pick-happy fingers. I like this iteration—each sticky star is infused with salicylic acid so you get even more zit-eradicating magic.
If you prefer a natural toothpaste, but don’t want to compromise on whitening, this is my top recommendation.
I used to be a ride-or-die salon girl, but press-ons have come a long way in the last few years, and these ones from Chillhouse are no exception. IMO, the brand’s chic designs eclipse all others.
How brilliant is this mattifying roller which effortlessly glides across your face to absorb any excess oil without removing your makeup? Once you try it, you’ll never want to be without it.
I’m absolutely obsessed with every cool, retro-inspired SPF product that Vacation debuts, but this 2023 take on an old-school lay-out favorite—baby oil—might be the brand’s best yet. Unlike the baby oils of yesteryear that’d help toast (not protect) our sun-exposed skin, this SPF 30 formula truly repels burns and summer-inflicted sun damage. It gives your skin the same mirror-like shine that’s punctuated by the brilliantly nostalgic “baby oil accord” scent sans scorch.
I go wild for rose anything, but this super-hydrating cuticle oil is so effective and special, it takes me over the edge. If you love anything that feels extra-luxe, you’ll love.
I love how soft, smooth, and plush these adorable lip masks make my lips, and they even have a natural, super-subtle plumping effect. Store your pack in the fridge, and after you exfoliate your lips, slap one on and let the all-natural, collagen-infused mask work its wonders. (It’s a game-changing ritual pre-lipstick.)
Ask any beauty editor, and they’ll tell you this filler-inspired formula from Lawless is their favorite plumping lip gloss. Prepare yourself—you’ll want every shade!
This orange-y vanilla hand cream from Grown Alchemist is the choice pick amongst hand cream snobs everywhere. If I were you, I’d snag multiple tubes. It’s non-greasy, it smells heavenly, and it’s filled with tons of beautifying ingredients like grapeseed, aloe, rosehip, camellia, rose petal, rosehip, sea buckthorn berry, and more.
I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again. After years and years of bleaching the eff out of my hair, I credit this treatment as the single most important item in my routine that has kept my hair soft, shiny, and most importantly, on my head!
I’m addicted to how good this leave-in from Ouai smells, but it also leaves your hair glassy, soft, and tangle-free to boot.
I’ll say it again louder for the people in the back: You should be wearing sunscreen every single day, regardless of the weather or time of year. And thanks to this stellar kit of best-sellers from Supergoop!, forming the habit has never been easier or more enjoyable.
Once I started dry-brushing in the morning pre-shower a couple of times a week, I could never go back. The physical exfoliation and detoxification benefits are one thing, but I also swear it gives me the best buzz of energy, and has even reduced some bumps and cellulite. I recommend one like this with a longer handle so you can more handily reach your back and legs.
I cringe every time I discover that a friend or family member is still using a regular towel to wrap up their hair post-wash. Swap in a microfiber hair towel like this one—it expedites dry time and will also cause less damage and frizz!
These pretty blushes from RMS are the ultimate compromise between a powder and a cream. They glide on effortlessly and deposit the perfect amount of pigment.
I have so many of these cult-loved silk scrunchies from Slip, I’ve lost track. They’re such an essential part of my healthy hair routine, and I always pick up more when I have the chance.
I’ve been on a huge scalp care kick recently, and this luxe duo from Ceremonia has been game-changing.
If you’re not into falsies, extensions, or lash serums, this mascara is the next best thing! I’m annoyingly choosy when it comes to mascara formulas (I swear the brush can make or break it for me), but it’s like Dr. Devgan entered my brain and concocted the perfect mascara formula based on all my wants and needs. This product has a flexible rubber brush that can catch every last lash and yields A+ separation. Plus, the science-backed formula delivers the prettiest curl and extension-like length.
Celebrity hairstylist Mark Townsend once told me this split end-sealing serum is a haircut in a bottle. He wasn’t wrong, and I’ve used it religiously ever since.
Peter Thomas Roth’s Instant FIRMx line has gone perennially viral on TikTok. This new primer, however, is my favorite of the bunch. Wear it under foundation, and any pores and/or fine lines will vanish right before your eyes. So many primers and products these days claim to minimize the look of pores or give you an “airbrushed” finish, but this is one of the few I’ve tried to actually succeed.
So many self tanning formulas for the face leave me broken out, orange, or a gnarly combination of both. This holy-grail favorite from Tan Luxe is one of the only ones that leaves my skin glowing, and naturally sun-kissed looking. Plus, mixing a few drops into your daily moisturizer couldn’t be easier!
If you want your foundation to look undetectable, this legendary, dual-ended application and buffing brush from Kevyn Aucoin is a must.
Creaseless clips have never looked prettier.
Celebrity facialist Candace Marino and I agree, this is one of the most luxurious lip treatments money can buy. The texture is insane, and your lips will stay hydrated and shiny for hours.
I recently switched from Latisse to this WWW editor favorite lash serum, and let me tell you, my lashes have never looked better. (Or more Bambi-like.)
I absolutely love the skin-smoothing powers of a high-quality physical exfoliator like this cult-favorite from Goldfaden MD. Whenever people compliment on how good or radiant my skin looks, it’s usually because I’ve used this ruby crystal-studded scrub the night prior.
I’m telling you to buy the trio because if you only get one shade (like me—whoops), you’ll instantly fall in love and wish you had at least two more.
Meet the vitamin C serum beauty editors and stars like Hailey Bieber swear by for bright, flawless skin.
I finally caved and bought this iconic vented brush from Yves Durif after practically every celebrity I’ve ever interviewed rattled it off as a nonnegotiable. It’s amazing, and I regret nothing.
Celebrity facialists agree—these iconic daily smoothing peels from Dr. Dennis Gross are one of the most strategic products to have in your smooth skin tool kit.
Does this cream from Augustinus Bader even need an introduction? It’s “oh my god, your skin looks good” gold, and it’s currently on sale! Run don’t walk.
Everything from celeb and editor-loved brand Costa Brazil is completely divine, but this firming body oil is one of my favorite-ever beauty products. (I’ve probably gone through five bottles at this point, and it’s especially great for the summer months.) It’s an eco-friendly formula composed of a cold-pressed blend of rare Amazonian ingredients high in vitamins, omegas, antioxidants, and essential fatty acids that tag team to tighten skin and stave off signs of aging.
Stoney Clover Lane makes the prettiest makeup bags, and this is the one I’m currently obsessing over.
Biotin makes me break out like crazy (yes, it’s a thing), and since practically every hair-and-skin supplement contains gobs of it, I haven’t been able to use most of the products on the market. So, I’ve had to look at other types of formulas out there. I’m a big fan of high-quality collagen, but this one from Agent Nateur is, in my opinion, truly the only one worth the money. It’s a collaboration with renowned functional medicine expert Will Cole, IFMCP, DNM, D.C., and features marine collagen and pearl powder as its two hero ingredients. In each scoop, you get over 30 essential trace minerals like silica, magnesium, calcium, and potassium which work synergistically to optimize hair, skin, and nail health. I love blending it into my smoothies or coffee, and I appreciate that it also contains a decent amount of protein—roughly eight grams per scoop. It’s the easiest hack for enviable skin, hair, and nails.
These in-demand hot rollers are your key to getting the voluminous, ’90s supermodel hair that’s taking over the internet right now.
I’m pretty sure I apologize whenever I recommend anything from 111Skin—especially these bio cellulose face masks because they are so good I could scream but also so expensive I could scream. (They literally transform the look and feel of your skin in seconds, and are the gold standard for prepping celebs’ complexions pre-red carpet.) The brand rarely goes on sale, so you can bet your bottom dollar I’m grabbing this master set of best-sellers before they’re gone.
Celebs, facialists, editors, and content creators absolutely gush over Furtuna’s luxurious facial elixirs, and this multi-tasking face and eye serum might just be the be-all-end-all favorite. It’s injected with the brand’s signature Splendore Anchusa Complex, featuring phenolic antioxidants, Vitamin E, and omega-3 fatty acids. It’s like youth in a bottle.
