Walmart

A Good Molecules 10% niacinamide serum, because niacinamide is one of the skincare industry’s best-kept secrets when it comes to embarking on a path toward clear, hydrated skin.

Walmart
Promising review: “It’s shiny with a little tingly for the plumping effect and lasts for a long time! I’ve gotten unsolicited compliments a few times. I was originally getting this to stash in other purses for emergencies, but this one is staying with me in my everyday purse.” —Jessica

Walmart
Promising review: “This is a good moisturizer for oily/combo skin. I have sensitive skin, and this doesn’t irritate me. Has a lightweight gel texture that sinks into my skin and gives a hydrated look to my skin. Makeup sits well on top of this and works well with different sunscreens. Definitely give it a try if you have oily/combo skin.” —StephanieTN

Walmart
Promising review: “This is the best-smelling vanilla I have ever had the pleasure of smelling. For the first few weeks of using it, it became my personality. I still absolutely love it. This is the first kind of lotion I can put on my body that soaks in and doesn’t feel ‘icky.’ I’ve tried other scents of Eos. They’re all fantastic. It’s just so soothing. TL;DR:— the best scent and formula.” —Kiki

E.l.f. Skin Suntouchable! Whoa Glow SPF 30 you ought to wear every single day, even if you’re spending most of your hours working from home! UV rays travel through your windows indoors, meaning you’re still experiencing sun damage while working from your desk. If you don’t like spending time rubbing white cast-filled sunscreen into your skin, try this glowy-tinted version instead!
Walmart

Promising review: “I’m using this as my only face moisturizer and makeup, without any other foundation, etc. It has a nice consistency and is a very good level of moisturizer, not greasy at all. It provides very light coverage, making my skin look brighter and nicer but still a very natural look. I also love that it has SPF 30, so I don’t have to apply any extra sunscreen just for a regular day.” —Susan
Price: $10+ (originally $15; available in three shades)

Plus, it’s super easy to apply and blends effortlessly.'” —Emi

A Sally Hansen instant cuticle remover gel is one of the only products you need for at-home manicures. This gently softens dead cuticles to make removal as safe and straightforward as wiping the gel away after a few minutes! Think of this as the exfoliation part of your cuticle-care routine.

And just as you would moisturize your face after exfoliating, try this nail and cuticle oil to moisturize the skin for lovely cuticles to come! Remember — cuticles are a living part of the nail, and cuticle health = nail health. This oil is chock-full of vitamin E for nourished cuticles and nail beds.
Walmart
Promising review: “I bought the Sally Hansen Treatment Cuticle Oil a couple of weeks ago because I have really dry cuticles that peel. After just a couple of weeks of use, my cuticles are healing, and my nails feel so much stronger! I’m planning on getting another bottle to keep at my desk at work!” —Kelsey

CeraVe hydrating eye cream so you can go about your day looking like you’ve had eight hours of sleep (even if that’s far from the truth). This eye cream contains essential ceramides, niacinamide, and hyaluronic acid to flood the skin with moisture while helping brighten. And if you wonder about skincare lasting throughout the day, CeraVe’s patented MVE ingredient-delivery technology continuously slow-releases ingredients for lasting benefits!
Walmart
Promising review: “This Cerave eye product is amazing, especially for the price. I’ve tried MANY eye products, and none moisturize and smooth my delicate eye area like this. I have very dry skin around/under my eyes, which completely fixes that. After one use, I could see it working. I use it in the morning under my face cream and makeup, and put it on before going to bed. It also helps with under-eye bags, but my main reason for using and loving this product is the moisturizing quality and the way it makes my skin brighter. I highly recommend.” —samone
Price: $14.44

Promising review: “This is my new favorite mask. I have hypersensitive, combo, middle-aged skin. This mask seems to do it all; my skin absolutely loves it. It’s soothing and moisturizing, brightens my skin, cleans my pores, and balances my dry/oily spots. My skin feels so comfortable after using this. The price is incredible for what it does. The jar will last a while. I highly recommend it!!” —Sara

A Kristin Ess moisturizing shampoo that contains proprietary Zip-Up Technology to seal split ends! Though this color-safe formula is sulfate-free, it lathers up like a dream *and* contains moisturizing avocado oil! If you want something to give your hair a boost in between salon appointments, this is the perfect no-thoughts-required shampoo.
Walmart
Promising review: “The smell is unreal. They are not lying with the high lathering. I have thick, long hair, and I only had to use a penny size, and my hair was covered in suds. It really feels like you’re getting a deep scrub clean compared to other shampoos. I got the conditioner also and I am obsessed. I feel like I got my hair done at the salon. My new must-have. I don’t know how I could use any other shampoo after this.” —Marianne
Price: $11.97+ (available in two sizes)
15.
A viral Maybelline liquid blush because blush is one of the easiest ways to add quick color to your complexion. Might as well fortify your collection with a highly pigmented formula that blends into the skin like a dream while adding a dewy touch to your look. (No blotchy spots here, folks!)
16.
A CoverGirl Outlast lip stain that has the staying power of a traditional lip stain with the ease and control of a lip liner, thanks to its marker-like shape. This stain comes in various colors that last throughout the day and gives a just-kissed (but still pigmented!) wash of blurred coverage.
Walmart
Promising review: “THE BEST!! This stays on all day, no joke. I prefer these lip stains over lip liner crayons because they usually don’t stay on that long. However, I found a trick, which is to set your lip liner with translucent powder before your lip gloss/lipstick, and that makes anything last. This lip liner stain just looks so natural!” —Lmisha
Price: $8.98 (available in 14 colors)
17.
A set of Conair rollers so you can skip out on heat styling but still achieve ’90s-level volume (I’m looking at you, Ms. Aniston). You can apply these before bed and sleep on them for large barrel waves upon waking!
Walmart
Promising review: “I was very surprised at how well these rollers stay in place and curl my hair. My hair is thin and a little shorter than shoulder length. I can’t use a curling iron or hot rollers because they burn my scalp. I was very impressed with these rollers and definitely recommend them.” —Debbie906
Price: $8.74 for a pack of 31 rolls
18.
A L’Oréal Paris color-correcting crayon that’s like a magic eraser for anything you want to conceal. Got dark circles? Consider using a shade of orange. Are blemishes more your concern?

A SheaMoisture curl-defining cream you’ll want to stock up on if your curls are in need of something that’ll keep them voluminous while also adding definition.

Walmart
Promising review: “My favorite hair styler. I already have super curly hair, but this product controls my frizziness, is easy to style, loses curls, is soft, and makes hair look and feel so nice. I use a leave-in conditioner and then apply this to my damp hair. Been using for years now and won’t be using anything else.” —Jessica
Price: $3.48+ (originally $3.97; available in three sizes)

21.
A 10-in-1 detangling leave-in conditioner because using a hair detangler is the best way to quickly separate curls and get rid of knots without causing too much frizz. Along with conditioning the hair, it also protects against heat, adds shine, nourishes the hair, and helps prevent split ends!
Walmart
Promising review: “This is the best product I’ve found to improve the appearance of my hair. It smooths and gives my hair a healthier appearance. It works great for detangling wet hair. The few times I have used heated styling tools, my hair comes out beautifully without any damage. Worth every penny!” —Joseph
Price: $7.92

Using this will help your conditioner coat your strands more fully while minimizing breakage that might happen during an out-of-the-shower boar bristle brushing session.
Walmart
Promising review: “I bought this today and used it after I washed my hair tonight. I ran it through my long hair before I got in the shower. Soooo smooth! It did not pull my hair (ends). Then, when I got out of the shower, I used a wide-tooth comb and then this brush. Wow! The brush went through my hair so easily. I hope it will be like this every time I do my hair. At the moment, I am very happy with this brush.” —Elizabeth
Price: $8.10+ (available in seven colors)

I have found it out performs even the more expensive brands, it stays put. it even takes a little longer to wash off at the end of the day compared to the rest of my makeup. They have many colors for many complexions. Give it a try!” —vic

A L’Oréal Paris volumizing waterproof mascara so your killer makeup looks can last through ANYTHING — whether that’s a trip to the sauna, a workout at the gym, or tears of joy.

Dust this onto the top of your forehead, cheeks, and nose, and *poof* people will surely think you just came back from a tropical getaway.
Walmart
Promising review: “I LOVE this bronzer. I have a light to medium complexion, which is just the perfect level of warmth. Not too brown, not too orange, but just right. And the consistency is amazing. I don’t see a lot of fallout with this. Add in that delicious scent that has me enjoying a day at the beach, my happy place, and I’m in heaven. I won’t stop buying this one.” —kathleen
