L’Oréal Paris Infallible Fresh Powder Foundation – it promises up to 24 hours of transfer- and sweat-resistant wear in a neat compact formula (renowned on TikTok!). The perfect base layer for any g-l-o-w? This. It covers like a liquid and mattifies like a powder for a smooth, shine-free, flawless complexion.
amazon.com, amazon.com
Promising review: “I am in my late 60s with normal to dry skin and let me tell you, I’m already in love with this L’Oréal Infallible Freshwear powder foundation! A lot of the reviews I’ve read have come from younger folks with oilier skin who rave about how awesome it is for oily, textured skin. Well, I’m here to tell you that my skin is mature, on the drier side, with dark spots, texture, and wrinkles, and this stuff is magic IF you take the time to BUFF IT IN!! That’s the big key here. OMG the formula was so creamy I just kept blending and blending, and my pores started to disappear, my dark spots began to be less noticeable, and my skin had a smooth, creamy, natural appearance like no other powder foundation I’ve ever tried (that includes my high-end products). The hype is very real with this. Not only will I continue using this gem, but will recommend it to my other mature friends and family, it is THAT GOOD.” —Flanamom

Or! An Ilia Super Serum Skin Tint to refresh your fall routine with our three main loves: skincare, makeup, and sun protection. We adore products with good-for-skin ingredients, like hyaluronic acid and niacinamide, known for softening and plumping. Not to mention the weightless feel, sheer coverage, and SPF what? 40! Swoon.
Ilia
This is silicone free, fragrance free, oil free, noncomedogenic, and safe for sensitive skin. Note that on application, the shade may appear lighter but after 30–60 seconds, it’ll adjust to its true color. Because it’s silicone free, natural separation may occur. This is normal and it’ll be fixed when applied to skin. Plus, the bottle is recyclable! Learn how to here.
Promising review: “Makes my skin look naturally luminous. I love that this product has SPF 40. It is a natural and clean formula that leaves my skin feeling hydrated, plump, fresh, and glowing. I feel like it is making my skin better, not just looking better. It is so gentle, no irritation at all, and it doesn’t have a heavy fragrance. My skin looks dewy and radiant. It applies very easily and a little goes a long way. I feel like but is well worth the price, and I may have to purchase this again. I am extremely pleased.” —Jessica

amazon.com, amazon.com
It comes with a book of recipes plus access to an online database with even more.
Promising review: “I purchased the pumpkin one and I absolutely loved it so I bought the skull waffle iron as well! Easy to use, fast, and they make the cutest pumpkins and skulls! Perfect for fall! Highly recommend!” —Krystyna M

A set of warmly tinted string lights that are specifically designed for curtains and window treatments for all you stay-at-home Movie Marathoners. And the last time I checked, a wall flush with twinkly lights is the *only* way to transform your casa into a cozy, fall-themed wonderland.
amazon.com
The lights are waterproof, have eight light settings controlled by a remote, and can be used indoors or outdoors. Layer the light strings with sheer curtains to create a cozy haven. And BTW, some reviewers noted that these curtains can be tricky to hang up by yourself because the lights get tangled, but many shared a hack: Don’t untie the long lights from each other until you’ve already hung up the curtain.
Promising review: “I am so in love with these lights! They were so easy to put up (took me about five minutes). They add such beauty to my room. I am so happy with this purchase.” —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $17.99 and the sheer curtains for $14.44+ (available in 16 sizes and 19 colors).

A set of Brooklinen stone-washed linen bedsheets because how else are you supposed to achieve radiánce if you don’t get some beauty rest? These luxuriously airy covers will keep you cool yet cozy, are available in gorge fall hues, and are guaranteed to breathe new life into your bedtime routine.
Brooklinen
This bundle includes: one flat sheet, one fitted sheet, and two pillowcases.
I have been #blessed because I get to sleep on these bad boys every night. And when I tell you that I look forward to jumping into bed because of these sheets, I am not exaggerating. Their breathable quality feels like a vacation and yes, because they’re 100% linen they do take a couple sleeps to soften up. I was super new to the idea of linen sheets when I received these, but, honestly, I was a convert overnight. I’ve washed ’em once and the initial scratchy quality has certainly dissipated. They also look *so* chic (seriously, I’m in awe of how the caramel stripe pattern has transformed the look of my bedroom) and I’m even convinced they’re helping me to get a better night’s sleep!
Promising review: “I love these sheets so much. The linen is GORGEOUS but more than that, the sheets are buttery soft and so lovely.” —BrookLinen Customer
Get it from Brooklinen for $242.10 (originally $269; available in full–Cali king sizes and 11 colors).

Zombie face masks since spooky season is upon us and what’s more terrifying than a Halloween slasher movie? Enlarged pores and wrinkles. These minimize both so well, you might give yourself a fright with how incredible your new skin looks after just one use and 15 short minutes.
amazon.com, amazon.com
Promising review: “I’m 27 and this is my second time purchasing these masks. I use these about once every other week or so. I have seen drastic improvements in my skin. After one use my skin was not nearly as dry and flaky. My face seemed a lot more supple and plump as well. After continued use, I have noticed my fine lines on my forehead are less noticeable and the overall texture of my skin is more smooth compared to bumpy looking. I also noticed I don’t look as tired even though I’m exhausted LOL. My uneven skin tone has improved and my face has brightened some. I live and work in the city and I think you can tell by my skin appearance but after using these my skin looks fresh, soft, and has a nice glow to it even after one use. I will continue to keep these masks stocked in my vanity.” —Rachel

A floral-infused multitasking oil so you can keep frizzy hair caused by scarf static at bay and ensure chapped cuticles stay thoroughly moisturized. The appearance of a glow from within? All thanks to a blend of coconut, collagen-boosting jojoba, and lavender oils.
Jasmin Sandal / BuzzFeed
Founded by three Latinx sisters and their mother, Terra Beauty Bars has a mission to craft consciously made skin-, hair-, and nailcare for efficacy and wellness.
I have been lucky enough to test out this wonderful clean beauty product that not only looks beautiful (peep the petals in the bottle!) but takes care of my frizzy flyaways, dry cuticles, *and* chapped skin — all without leaving a greasy residue. There’s a light herbal scent, which I personally love because it lets me know I’m using only natural ingredients. And I just love me a multitasking product so I don’t have to store as many products on my small bathroom counter!
Promising review: “This is literally my favorite full-body and hair oil ever! For the price, I thought maybe it would be full of filler ingredients, but it is not. It is 100% natural and not greasy at all. I use it on my legs, hands, and arms. My daughter, who has very curly hair, uses it as a hair oil daily and it does wonders on her coils (3c). Highly recommend.” —Olivia

Glossier Cloud Paint blends like a cream for subtle, buildable color when you want to maintain your summer glow well into the overcast months. The lightweight formula means it won’t ever look cakey, and you can dab some on your lids for days when you’re feeling matchy-matchy.
Glossier
BuzzFeed Shopping Editor Maitland Quitmeyer uses this and says: “Cloud Paint might be the easiest-to-apply blush of all time. I am incredibly pale, and a lot of blushes get full Haunted Victorian Doll really quick. Two dabs of this and a quick blend, and the natural pink flush is there — and any excess product I just pop on my eyelids for a cute matchy look. It adds some hydrated dimension to an otherwise matte face of foundation, feels SUPER comfortable on, and lasts (on me at least) all day! There is a little bit of a learning curve when squeeeeezing the product out (it can be easy at first to waste some), but once you’re used to it, squeezin’s a breeze. The good news is you only need a teeeeensy tad, so the tube lasts (The Sandlot voice) FOR-E-VER!“
Promising review: “I am such a minimalist when it comes to makeup. I used to never use blush or bronzer. A simple tinted moisturizer with some concealer and whatever. BUT CLOUD PAINT CHANGED THAT. I absolutely love the color and glow it adds to my face. And it only takes three seconds to put it on. Perfect for a makeup minimalist like me.” —Jennifer T
Get it from Glossier for $18 (available in eight shades).

A set of nine flickering flameless LED candles you should adorn your home with if you appreciate a ghostly glimmer. Especially great if you don’t want the responsibility of having to remember if you blew all the flames out before you left the house…
Amazon
These nine candles are different sizes, made of real wax, and are remote controlled. They have four timers and brightness levels to choose from — including a flickering option! Each candle needs two AA batteries.
Promising review: “These are amazing! The real wax surrounding the bulb makes them look and feel pretty authentic — much classier than the plastic stuff I was seeing at the store. The remote works beautifully, and it’s nice that you can choose flicker or steady light. I think I’ll order another set to use during the winter holidays too! Again, these are much nicer quality than any other electric candles I’ve seen, and the remote makes managing the lighting super easy.” —Amazon Customer
Get the set of nine from Amazon for $35.50 (also available in a set of 12).

amazon.com
Promising review: “I really wish I would have taken ‘before’ pics. My hairdresser told me about this stuff and said, ‘It works so good I had to stop using it every night.’ I thought to myself, ‘Oh yeah, lashes too long, no such thing,’ but I’m on my second tube and I’m going to start using every other night. My lashes are so long, and it’s like I have a double row of lashes. My bottom lashes are thicker too. I rarely write reviews but wanted to share because it really really works.” —Asc

amazon.com, amazon.com
And this baby is 6 ft tall!
Promising review: “I love everything about this tree. I purchased one and then couldn’t wait to get a second one. It was super easy to assemble and it instantly made our West Coast space feel like a New England fall! The cord has lots of length and is brown so it doesn’t stand out where we’ve placed it. My only complaint is that one tree we received is a bit brighter than the other, but no two trees in nature are the same, so it definitely wasn’t a deal breaker.” —Rachel O

Promising review: “I like these lights a lot! I ordered a single string, which was just great for the price, and then ordered another to make my mantle really glow. I could have ordered the two-string option and saved money — take a hint! Anyway, the mantle looks lovely with three flameless candles and these realistic-looking leaves.

Another thing: These bristles are infused with charcoal, so they’re perfect for freshening up two-day hair!
Promising review: “First, let me start off with saying I have always HATED styling my hair. I’m not good at it and it takes WAY too long to do. My hair is fluffy/frizzy, and I have a lot of it. It takes me about 20–25 minutes to dry it with a normal blow-dryer. When I’m done with drying, it’s normally so frizzy and crazy that I MUST flat iron, or else it looks like I just woke up. Flat-ironing would take me another 20 min or so, so we’re looking at 45 min total to do my hair. Nope. I don’t have the time or patience for all that, unless I’m going out at night. And then I discovered this Hot Tools miracle. I’ve only been using this a little less than a week, but it’s changed my hair life and I am telling all my girlfriends. It’s reduced my time from 45 minutes to 10. TEN!! Not only that, I don’t have to flat-iron my hair, which saves time and heat exposure to my fine hair. The end result is SO smooth.” —BayAreaShopper
