Most Coveted is a shopping series sharing our editors’ curation of the must-know items they can’t stop thinking about.
Extra space is not easy to come by when you live in a 500-square-foot studio apartment, so when I have the chance to fill that space with items I love, I don't hold back. Hair dryer kits, LED masks, hyaluronic acid serums, and hair dyes are just some of the items accumulating in my small bathroom. I may have overestimated how much free space I have, but as an NYC resident, I specialize in making it work. I've already mapped out where I'll store my Fur Chafe Cushion and Nécessaire lip balm in my purse so that there's room in my medicine cabinet for my Ami Cole foundation stick. There's a method to my madness, but I digress. You're here for my favorites, and I'm here to rave about them. Keep reading to see all the makeup, skin, and haircare items that currently have my undivided attention.
