They really are as good as everyone says...

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.

Clinique has a lot of cult favorites and this one might just be tops (though it's definitely a tough call with Clinique Dramatically Different Moisturizing Lotion+, $27). This cleansing balm is fragrance-free and oh-so-gentle, making it ideal for sensitive skin. It feels quite nice and relaxing as it "takes the day off" and the balm formula makes it ideal for travel.

Looking for a dermatologist-approved night cream that won't break the bank? This formula is a winner: It hydrates like a treat and the niacinamide in the formula helps soothe skin while also providing some anti-aging benefits.
