Promising review: "This is my holy grail for my extremely dry lips. I love the feeling, and it stays on for a long time." —relax4lfe

Promising review: "I am obsessed with this stuff! Gives the perfect bronzey glow, great for a makeup base and on its own. Bought a travel size, and will be buying the full size when I run out!" —MLOVE1

Promising review: "Must add to your skincare routine!!!! Loved this product!  The mask was so cool and felt good on my skin. I slept with it on. Removed in the morning, and my skin felt well hydrated and had a smooth, dewy appearance. Skin felt hydrated.  Great price point!" —PTYPeaches 

Price: $5 for one mask (also available in a pack of four)

Promising review: "This is the best hair oil I’ve used so far!! My hair was a bit frizzy and just not lying right one night, and I applied this hair oil, and it completely changed the look and feel of my hair! So so much better than before!" —meredith08

Promising review: "This is my first review ever because this product is just that amazing! I have extremely dry skin, so it’s hard to find a moisturizer that works for me. This lotion is AMAZING!! And I can feel the difference!" —nx6791

Promising review: "I’m on my second bottle. I use gel on my natural nails, and this makes them grow so fast. I usually have dry cuticles and haven’t had that issue since I started using this. It’s 100% worth the money." —Cc38

Promising reviews: "Leaves my thick color-processed hair so light and soft, and my scalp feels less oily. I wash my hair 2–3 times a week on swim days and use lots of leave-in treatments. This works way better than shampoos to dechlorinate and clarify." —LottaLei

Promising review: "As a 42-year-old, I deal with dry skin and fine lines. I’m always looking for something to help with both. I have found that these eye patches really help to plump and moisturize, and have added them to my weekly routine. I’ve tried so many eye patches, and these are one of my top faves." —briana82

Promising review: "I use this every night, and my skin feels soft and hydrated in the morning. Lovely smell too!" —CecileVA

Promising review: "I decided to try this based on the reviews, and I am so impressed. What a great find! I am so pleased with the results and the difference in how my skin looks. This serum leaves skin soft, smooth, and supple. It goes on easily and has no scent. I can use this with other products or on its own. It truly does what it says. Love it!" —frangerine

Promising review: "Absolutely delicious! This shower oil lingers on the skin wayyy after you’ve finished showering! It smells so delicious and leaves your body feeling so soft and smooth!" —GlitterBarbie12

Promising reviews: "I love this serum. I put it on before bed and then make my hair into a loose braid. Next day, hair is silky smooth and smells divine." —OBear91

"I’ve been using this for over a month, and I’ve seen a difference in my hair. It’s so soft and shiny. I use it on my styled hair, and it doesn’t undo my curls; it also has a nice scent. I will be repurchasing!" —YazminP21

Promising review: "This serum has noticeably faded my hyperpigmentation and evened out my skin tone, giving me a brighter and more radiant complexion. I appreciate that it's unscented, making it perfect for my sensitive skin. The texture is lightweight and absorbs quickly, making it easy to incorporate into my daily skincare routine. Overall, I'm thoroughly impressed with this product and would highly recommend it to anyone looking to address hyperpigmentation and uneven skin tone!" —beautykait

Promising review: "This hair styling cream brings out the natural curl of my hair and helps the curl stay! It makes my hair feel soft, not 'crunchy' like other products, and makes my hair more manageable." —kateybee

Promising review: "This exfoliating body bar is literally everything! I have never used an exfoliating product this good in my life! It smells divine, and it really works so well and leaves skin feeling so soft. I don’t write reviews, but this one really deserves a 5-star review. Will be purchasing again 🙌deserved" —SierraV32

Promising review: "I LOVE THIS SPRAY. I have eczema and rosacea, along with general dry skin, and this spray is a godsend. It keeps my redness toned down and has really transformed my skin." —Aliciaaaaaaaa

Promising review: "Every time my friends or family come over, they use this. And every time they are like?? OK, wow, that's amazing. It's just the best. I didn't know a cleanser that's on your face for like max 60 seconds could make such a difference, but it does." —KaityLauz

Promising review: "I tried these on a cystic flare-up, and it worked wonders!! I usually break out around my period, so I put them on a couple of spots I could feel forming. They cleared up areas that would’ve been around for a week." —Michelina R.

Promising review: "After using this product for about three weeks now, I’ve seen great improvement. Smaller pores, barely any new acne, and improvement in dark spots have made this product my go-to toner, and I will be repurchasing." —Evelyn001

Promising review: "My nails are thin and break so easily. This has really helped! I also use the 'Plump' from their line. It’s now a permanent part of my nail care routine" —josiefine

Price: $19 (also available in sheer beige)

Promising review: "I’ve used this product once a week for three weeks now, and I can say it truly brought my hair back to a strong state. I got a balayage in November, and after that I had so much bleach damage, and this product literally made my hair feel like silk" —xoxolc

Promising review: "I never leave reviews, but this product is amazing! I've tried other dry shampoos, but nothing has worked as well as this one. It has doubled the days I can go between washes, the smell is good but also not too strong, so I don't get headaches, and my hair doesn't feel like it's too full of product after applying. Although it can be a little tedious and messy when applying, the results are worth it IMO. I'm obsessed!" —emilyj2957

Promising review: "BEST EYE CREAM EVER. I had class at 8 a.m., and I’d wake up at 6 a.m., and I would only wear mascara, and my eye bags looked horrible until I began using this every morning. Looking back now, my eye bags had gotten better, and I did not look as dead as before." —heymango

Promising review: "I love this product! I have very curly hair with many baby hairs that stick up all the time. I was able to tame all of them, and my slick back looked better than ever! I totally recommend." —sephoraslays9cere

Promising review: "This has been the only moisturizer that has worked on my combo, mostly dry skin. My skin is hydrated without my T-zone looking oily. It’s pricey but worth it, and I love the light smell it has." —Sephora Customer

Price: $24+ (available in three sizes and also in a refill)

Promising review: "I am very pale and live in the Caribbean and this sunscreen is a must!! It protects me, does not leave a white cast, as it is clear, and it helps me get a little bit of a tan, not burnt." —CristinaP23

Promising review: "I have had this for a few months and really only used it on my hands. I have really dry skin, so I decided to use it on my face one day, and... BOOM! It is amazing!!! It smells heavenly, the packaging is adorable, and it just makes your skin sooo glowy!!! I use it twice a day on my face (morning and night), and it just feels so good! I would definitely recommend it! It is a bit expensive, and I bought it mostly on a whim, but it has lasted from March to now (which is the end of August), and I still have plenty! I take this with me EVERYWHERE! So in conclusion, if you have the money, love watermelon stuff, have dry skin, and need/want a new moisturizer, then this is what you are looking for!!!" —Avery4911
