Tata Harper founded her namesake brand to fill a void in the beauty industry: 100% natural products. Originally from Colombia, she now lives on a farm in Vermont where she actually grows her own ingredients. The Tata Harper Resurfacing Mask, $58, is one of the buzziest products from the line right now — those naturally-sourced beta-hydroxy acids will seriously help you get your glow on.

Glow Recipe founders Sarah Lee and Christine Chang are doing it all: In addition to curating their online shop of natural Korean beauty products, they also collaborate with other brands (like the Whamisa by Glow Recipe line at Target) and have their own line of products. Their sleeping gel mask kept flying off the shelves following its launch and now they've followed up with Glow Recipe Watermelon Glow Pink Juice Moisturizer, $39.

Rapid Flash Brightening Serum, $85, offers a great intro to the brand, especially with the cheery neon packaging and uplifting orange juice scent.
