“This mineral sunscreen is so silky and blendable that it honestly applies just like a body lotion. I love it for beach days when I want head-to-toe UV protection but don't want to slather a thick, white, paste-like formula all over my skin. It’s also surprisingly hydrating for having such a lightweight milky texture, so it keeps my skin soft too.” —LAUREN BALSAMO, BEAUTY DIRECTOR
“My hair usually air dries with a ton of frizz and flyaways, but after using this mask, my strands were shockingly smooth without having to do a ton of styling with different tools and products. And the more I use it, the stronger and healthier my hair looks, too. Since incorporating it into my twice-a-week everything shower, my strands are noticeably softer, and my color looks more vibrant.” —LB

“Last week, I was lucky enough to get a facial with aesthetician Jill Black. My skin after the treatment was so insanely plump and glowy, and now I’m using her moisturizer to help maintain the results at home. True to its name, it has a fluffy, whipped texture that cocoons skin in a layer of lightweight but long-lasting moisture for a smooth, juicy finish.” —LB
“Okay, this tinted mineral SPF isn’t new—dermatologists and editors (including myself) have been raving about it for years, but it’s back in my daily skincare rotation, and now I can’t understand why I ever stopped using it. The tint is one-size-fits-all, which I’m normally skeptical of, but this is a perfect match for my light-medium complexion. The texture works with well with anything I layer underneath or on top, and the finish is glowy but not at all greasy. I have absolutely no notes here—it’s pretty much perfect.” —LB

,“My biggest beef with cream bronzers is that they tend to look muddy and they don’t really last, but this new one from Summer Fridays is incredibly natural looking and has impressive longevity too. I use the brand’s complementary BronzerBrush to sweep it along my cheekbones, jawline, and around my hairline to instantly warm up my face—and by the end of the day my skin still has a nice sunkissied glow to it.” —LB
“I live in skin tints in the summer, and this one has already made its way into my rotation heavily. I've always loved the original Complexion Rescue Tinted Moisturizer from BareMinerals, but this stick version makes it even easier to swipe right onto my face and blend out in seconds. It leaves my skin looking like glass too (but I can set down with powder anywhere that gets oily).” —BETH GILLETTE, BEAUTY EDITOR

“I packed this in my bag for Governor's Ball music festival, thinking 'oh, it'll be nice to have something to freshen my breath, whatever, it's tiny, it takes up no space.' Since that weekend, I now refuse to leave my house without one of these. I underestimated how good a quick spritz of mouthwash would feel, especially when it's hot and sticky in summer. It's like the fresh breath equivalent of spraying your face with refreshing mist. It instantly cools me down and makes me feel clean. Plus, the bottle is so tiny and cute.” —BG
“The best my skin's ever looked was after a PCA in-office chemical peel. But even a beauty editor can't get that all the time. The next best thing? These at-home peel pads. They're fairly gentle—a shock considering they contain a mix of lactic, glycolic, salicylic, and mandelic acids—but make my face feel so smooth. I use it once or twice a week, and it's just the right amount of exfoliation.” —BG

“I awarded Flamingo Estate's Exfoliating Soap Brick a Cosmo Holy Grail Beauty Award, so I'm not new to the brand's soap shop. But this new milk bar is my current body wash obsession. The creamy lather feels so luxurious in the shower, and it makes my skin feel clean, but never stripped. The scent, though, is my favorite part. Marzipan, vanilla custard, sweet almond, warm spices, and amber—it's like a delicious Italian cake.” —BG
“I avoided hair oils like the plague until recently, when I got hair extensions. Now, I understand why everyone's always been raving up and down about hair oils. It's perfect for refreshing my ends, adding shine, and smoothing out flyaways. But I still don't want anything too heavy, as my extensions are still fine. These from Ceremonia do everything I need without weighing down my hair. And it smells like guava—so good for summer.” —BG

“I swear I haven’t worn cream bronzer in years because I couldn’t find a formula that didn’t get muddy and dry on my skin. But I haven’t stopped using Rhode’s cream bronzer since the day I got my hands on it. It blends out like a dream with a brush, and it makes me look perfectly sun-kissed. This, plus a lightweight concealer, has been my summer base for glowy coverage and sculpting.” —JASMINE HYMAN, ASSISTANT BEAUTY EDITOR

“I didn’t know Medicube made haircare, but I’m so glad I discovered that they do. This is one of the only clarifying shampoos I’ve used that isn’t too harsh on my scalp, and it has a nice cooling effect, so it feels super refreshing as you use it. I’ve been going through some hair shedding recently, so I will definitely be using this alongside the conditioner and scalp serum to try to combat it.” —JH

“I’m obsessed with Sofie Pavitt’s Omega Rich Moisturizer for my overly dry skin, and I’ve been using this new formula nonstop in the mornings when my skin needs an extra dose of hydration. It’s perfect to prime my skin underneath makeup, and I use it more as a hyaluronic acid serum, but those with oily skin (like Beth) love it as a moisturizer adequate enough for their skin type.” —JH
“I feel slightly insane suggesting a face mask that retails for over $200, but it’s really that good. Truly. Every time I use it, I have a brief internal debate about whether any face mask should cost this much, and then I see my skin afterward and immediately understand the cost. The folks over at Eighth Day have my skin completely hooked on this creamy, peptide-rich formula. It feels incredibly luxe going on, but what keeps me coming back is the way my skin looks—smoother, plumper, and brighter. It’s the kind of product that makes people ask what you’ve been using on your skin. It’s absolutely a splurge, but worth the investment. It's one of those rare pricey products that lives up to the hype.” —JULEE WILSON, BEAUTY EDITOR-AT-LARGE

“Am I the only one obsessed with all things cherry right now? I’m loving Coach’s take on the fruit in its newest fragrance. Instead of being overly sweet or syrupy, this scent is both playful and sophisticated thanks to its amber base note. It's fruity, flirty, and somehow manages to feel grown-up at the same damn time. I’ve worn it for the past two weeks, and it’s a total compliment magnet. I've been reaching for it when I want something that makes me feel pretty and confident, without trying too hard. If you're looking to add a juicy cherry scent to your fragrance wardrobe, this one is definitely worth a sniff. Let's just say she's cute, she gets compliments, and she's earning her keep on my fragrance tray.” —JW
This is one of those things you don’t know you need until you get one in your hands. Enter, the Meltie pouch, aka the home to all my beauty products, as I hit the pool and beach this summer. Why? Because the insulated design works to keep my products cool. No more overheated SPFs, melted lipsticks, or beauty products that have been baking in the sun all day. I also like to keep my face mists cool for a refreshing spritz whenever I need a quick pick-me-up. It gives me peace of mind knowing my products are protected from the heat while I’m outside. Whether it’s a beach day, pool day, or just running around town, it’s become one of those grab-and-go essentials I rarely leave home without. And fun fact: it was created by a former Cosmo editor who knows a thing or two about what it takes to create a buzz-worthy product.” —JW

“My happy place is Martha’s Vineyard (IYKYK), so when I learned there was a faux lash named after the magical island, I had to try them. As someone whose natural lashes are practically nonexistent, I’m always on the hunt for lashes that give a little something extra without screaming “falsies!” These 3D-printed strip lashes strike that perfect balance between glam and believable. They add just the right amount of length and fullness, and somehow manage to make me look more awake, polished, and put together. Plus, they’re lightweight enough that I forget I’m even wearing them. Basically, if Martha’s Vineyard had an official lash, I’d like to think it would look something like this. Nailed it!” —JW
“This is one of those iconic products that needs no introduction. Sure, it got a new look, but don’t worry, it’s the same beloved formula that leaves skin feeling soft and smooth. Honestly, this oil takes me right back to my childhood. It was a summertime staple in my family, and seeing it make a comeback feels like reconnecting with an old friend. I love that Avon is introducing it to a whole new gen while keeping longtime fans happy too. And if you’re already a Skin So Soft devotee (or about to become one), there’s even more to love. The brand has expanded the collection with a few modern twists, including a bar soap, a gelled body oil, and even a bi-phase oil mist. It’s proof that some classics never go out of style and just get better with time.” —JW
