Brighten up your beauty regimen with these six selections.—Angela Bobo
1. Sephora Lip Mixology Palette
True lipstick lovers know that nothing is worse than toting around multiple tubes only to find them at the bottom of your purse with the top nowhere to be found. This 25-shade lip palette allows you to transport a variety of shades, ranging from nude to bright purple, or to create your own signature shade so that you are always prepared for the perfect pout. / $28
2. Gucci Flora Glorious Mandarin
This straightforward, citrus-y floral scent is just light enough to deliver a wash of fragrance with hints of mandarin orange, piña colada, jasmine, creamy wood and white musk. It’s a sophisticated and balanced scent without being too cloying or overwhelming during the summer. / $52.99
3. Neutrogena Hydroboost Gel Moisturizer
Water-based moisturizers are better for the humid weather because they plump and hydrate skin without clogging pores. Hyaluronic acid is naturally found in skin and is able to absorb and release up to 1,000 times its weight in water back into your skin for a hydrated look sans greasiness. / $19.99
4. Orly Color Amp’d in Sunset Strip and Flexible Sealcoat
Gel polish can be damaging, but no one can deny the convenience and appeal of long-lasting, chip-proof color. The featured vibrant orange hue can be paired with a sealcoat to create a flexible layer that moves with the nail and lasts for a week. The best part is that it can be easily removed with standard nail polish remover. / $9.99 each
5. Simple Micellar Cleansing Water
Micellar cleansing waters are booming because they allow you to gently cleanse the skin without needing to rinse afterwards. First made popular by the French brand Bioderma, this budget-friendly option recently hit drugstores stateside and is the perfect gateway for cleansing water newbies. / $7.99
6. Ban Total Refresh Body Wipes in Restore
These wipes are a lifesaver during the humid months. They cool on contact and remove sweat and odor leaving behind a fresh, light scent; they’re a perfect gym bag essential for a post-workout pick-me-up. / $3.99
