Bargain Light Mask
You've probably heard that LED light can be used to treat and heal acne. And now it's no longer a fancy in-office (or superexpensive at-home) treatment -- it's accessible. The Neutrogena Light Therapy Acne Mask, $39.99, is cheap, easy to find, and it works. It offers a combination of blue light (to kill bacteria) and red light (to calm inflammation), and you'll notice a difference after just 10 minutes -- that should be reason enough for anyone with breakouts to check it out.

Life-Changing Hair Dryer
Saying that a hair dryer has changed my life might sound like hyperbole, but it's actually not. Every morning, my hair is the last thing I do before heading out the door, and it's often a rushed, stressful process. Thanks to the Dyson Supersonic Hair Dryer, $399, that process has gone from stressful to pleasant -- and incredibly fast. My 15 minute routine has been cut in half, and I can rough dry my frizz-prone hair and have it look good. Sure, the price tag is a little nuts, but not when you consider the life-changing, time-saving nature of this high-tech device. And you can tell that this baby is made to last. I plan to have great hair -- and fast -- for many years to come.

Lip-Enhancing Lipstick
The original Soap & Glory Sexy Mother Pucker Lip Gloss is a cult classic, but the new Soap & Glory Sexy Mother Pucker Lipstick, $12, might be even better. The formula is hydrating (thanks to a special moisture wrap technology), the 24 color options are seriously gorgeous, and it wears like a dream. You can dab it on for a hint of color or apply with a bit more force for major drama.

Magical Magnet Mask
Of course I'm a facemask fan, but I rarely have the patience to wait 20-plus minutes for a peel-off formula to dry. Dr. Brandt Magnetight Age-Defier Magnet Mask, $75, gives me the same level of removal satisfaction (maybe more, to be honest), and there's no patience required. You apply the cool gunmetal-colored gel to your face, let it sink in, and when you're ready to take it off you use a magnet to remove it. The experience isn't as intense as it sounds -- the mask glides off with the magnet -- and it leaves behind a wildly hydrating layer of anti-aging goodness.

Multitasking Color Stick
There's something endlessly appealing about a product that's designed for both lips and cheeks -- especially when it works equally well for both purposes. Wander Beauty Carryon Lip and Cheek Gel, $22, looks beautiful wherever you apply it, and it's incredibly moisturizing thanks to avocado oil and shea butter. While some multitaskers can be dry or look flat, this one is pretty, natural looking and ideal for travel.

Changing weather (hello, fall) means it's time to tweak your beauty routine. Fortunately, there are some amazing new beauty products to buy this October, which means revamping your daily beauty checklist has never been easier -- or more fun. Whether you're battling acne or looking to calm dry, irritated skin, there's a new beauty product for you to try. Prices run the gamut this month -- from splurge to drugstore bargain -- so there really is something for everyone.
