DHC Deep Cleansing Oil, $28
Much like Bioderma's micellar water, you could argue that this was one of the first cleansing oils to really hit it big. Fast-forward to 2018 and oils are a must-have in every double-cleansing regimen. The emollient texture gently removes even your toughest liquid eyeliner near instantly, then lightly emulsifies when you add water, making it a cinch to remove (without a smidge of residue).

Estee Lauder's Advanced Night Repair has been around forever for a reason: Put simply, it works. Add a couple drops to your nighttime skin care routine and it'll add that extra glow to your complexion — plus, it really does help protect and repair, just like the name promises.

This stuff just got top marks from Consumer Reports for the fourth year in a row, a well-deserved honor. The lightweight texture sinks in near-instantly which makes it so easy to use — and the water-resistant, broad-spectrum coverage is nothing to sneeze at, either.

Glossier Balm Dotcom, $12
The Glossier zeitgeist is huge and while its new launches are plenty exciting (we still can't get over the Glossier Lash Slick Mascara), we'll always be ride-or-die for the brand's multi-purpose balm. It soothes and protects even the most chapped of lips — seriously, it's one of the best lip balms around.

Pixi Glow Tonic, $15 (100 ml)
Glow tonics are quickly becoming a staple skin care product and this one is particularly effective. With a botanical-packed formula, it gently exfoliates your skin to reveal a lovely, natural glow. Plus, it happens to be quite affordable (not to mention photogenic).
