Multitasking Moisturizer
Maybe there are some people who enjoy slapping on 50 products every morning, but not us. That's why we're loving Elizabeth Arden Eight Hour Great 8 Daily Defense Moisturizer Broad Spectrum Sunscreen SPF 35, $42 — the ultimate multitasker — for these lazy days of summer. It hydrates, controls shine, downplays pores, protects the skin from both UV rays and blue light, adds a glow, and so much more.
Blond Ambition
Whether you're lightening your hair in a salon, at home, or under the sun, John Frieda Go Blonder Lemon Miracle Masque, $8.99, is just the thing to keep fair hair soft, healthy, and strong. The creamy blend of lemon oil and the company's unique "BlondeMend" technology builds bonds to both repair and prevent damage, breakage, and that dreaded straw-like feeling.
Post-Workout Wonder
Lululemon has expanded beyond leggings with their new Selfcare range, a collection of sleek, après-gym beauty products. Our pick: Lululemon Anti-Stink Deodorant Aloe Lotus, $18, a cooling, aluminium-free spray with zinc to absorb oil, pre-biotics to stop odor-causing bacteria, and coconut oil to soften skin.
Braid BFF
Lazy girls, rejoice! Here's how to get two days of hairstyles with just a few minutes of effort: Work The Beachwaver Co. Braid Balm Pre-Braid Prep, $24, through your hair, then braid. (The product softens hair and helps hold your style in place.) That night or the next morning when you're ready for look #2, unravel your braid and voila: You've got pretty, crunch-free waves — minimal effort required.
Bright Idea
Wallflowers need not apply: Lorac Neon Lights Pro Pressed Pigments Eyeshadow Palette, $29, is packed with ten powder shadow colors ranging from bold to really, no-we-mean-really bold. Think neon shades of orange, yellow, pink, and blue, and glittery jewel tones, all rounded out with a sensible light tan.
