Nail Call
If you're looking for a clean nail polish, try Nails Inc Plant Power Nail Polish, $10, which is 21-free, vegan, and made up of 73 percent plant-based ingredients. Our favorite shade: Soul Surfing, this vibrant, periwinkle-blue that looks gorgeous on both fingers and toes.
Liner Notes
"The Hills" star-turned-designer Lauren Conrad has launched a new, tightly-edited makeup line that includes a cheek tint, a highlighter, and a couple shades of lipstick. But if you're only going to try one thing, of course it has to be Lauren Conrad Beauty The Liquid Eyeliner, $20. The long-lasting formula is inky black, and the skinny, felt-tipped pen makes it goof-proof to recreate LC's signature cat-eye.
Strong Foundation
Think of the new It Cosmetics Your Skin But Better Foundation + Skincare, $39.50, as makeup with benefits. Not only does it come in 40 shades to instantly cover imperfections, but it's also packed with aloe vera, hyaluronic acid, and vitamins E and B5 to work like a treatment, smoothing skin and improving tone and texture over time.
The Pin Crowd
Bobby pins have looked pretty much the same since our grandmothers used them. But The Hair Edit Gold Bobby Pin Set, $6.99, put a chic new twist on the classic standby. In sleek matte gold, this set of four instantly adds edge and interest to a simple bun or wayward bangs.
Clear Winner
A sunscreen that actually makes your skin look sexier? Yep, we've found it! Instead of leaving behind a telltale white cast, Coppertone Glow Hydragel Sunscreen Lotion SPF 50, $8.97, is a transparent, cool-to-the-touch formula that goes on — and dries — totally clear, imparting just the slightest bit of subtle, highlighter-like shimmer.
