Why can't *everything* be this affordable?? 😭

Koa Beck, Senior Features Editor

"While I'm super diligent about washing my face, I don't like removing makeup and then doing a formal washing—it makes my skin super dry. With these goodies, I just do swipe, swipe, swipe and it's all done."

Yes To Cucumbers Facial Towelettes, $5.19

Jessica Pels, Site Director

"I cannot live without this stuff. As someone who has the occasional big spot and the more-than-occasional small one, I keep one tube on my nightstand and one in my purse. Any time I feel something starting to form, I apply a smear of this and it's either gone or 50% as big/red/terrifying by the next day."

Clearasil Rapid Action Vanishing Treatment Cream, $8.99

Rosa Heyman, Social Media Editor

"I use Drew Barrymore's Flower Mascara. It really extends the lash and goes on very dark but it doesn't get clumpy no many how many layers you apply."

Flower Zoom-In Ultimate Mascara, $7.98

Chelsea Peng, Assistant Editor

"I like Laneige BB Cushion because it's fun and bouncy and gives good coverage when you want to look more done."

Laneige BB Cushion, $34

Samantha Leal, Senior Editor

"NYX makes your lashes look blacker than black and full."

NYX Cosmetics The Skinny Mascara, $6.99

Koa Beck, Senior Features Editor

"A lady must moisturize (especially in the winter) but I hate heavy, oily lotions. This one is super, super lightweight. At the risk of sounding like a commercial, it's like not wearing anything. "

Aveeno Clear Complexion Daily Moisturizer, $14.97
