The 5 Best Selling Beauty Products

Estée Lauder’s iconic Double Wear foundation is a fan favorite. Its natural matte finish, oil-controlling powers, and extensive shade range make it hard to switch out. It stays in place and is here to stay.

Youthful and modern, this isn't your typical floral fragrance. A spritz of this warm concoction will transport you to a garden filled with patchouli, Turkish roses, and orange trees.

Clinique's cult face lotion feels weightless on the skin, doesn’t exacerbate dry patches, and layers well under makeup. The texture doesn't feel too emollient, and the cucumber extract-infused formula is hydrating without leaving behind a greasy residue.

It doesn't matter whether you have normal, dry, combo, or oily skin—Estée Lauder's night formula instantly works to smooth out fine lines and give your pores a hit of hydration, thanks to its bounty of antioxidants and hyaluronic acid. A couple drops before bed is all you need.

A medley of citrus accord, labdanum, and sandalwood cedar come together to create a fragrance that is both warm and fresh. Bleu de Chanel also has notes of tonka bean and vanilla, imbuing it with a sensual complexity. Although it's a cologne, it reads like a modernized version of a classic powdery, unisex scent from the 1920s, so nobody will be the wiser if you share with your SO.
