One of my desires for life after mask is to look maximally anesthetized. I would definitely reach out to Charlotte Tilbury’s Hollywood Flawless Filter, which is a partial lightener, a very light undercoat. You can place it on your whole face, or just on strategic areas, and you will look glowing. Try the mini size to get an idea of how it will work for you. – Kathleen Hou, beauty director

If you’ve ever fallen into an Instagram hole that amazes you before and after micro-scrolling forehead, this pencil will fill in some of the FOMO. The ultra-fine tip, which measures 0.9 mm, is one of the thinnest and most precise pencils on the market, making it easy to get the professional micro-blade look at home without all the numbing cream and skin scraper that is usually involved. – Erica Smith, beauty writer

It’s like the Gorilla glue of pigment – in a good way. Just works a little like an eye shadow, a blush or a lipstick, and it sticks comfortably to your skin for 24 hours, without folding or staining (it even works under water). Makeup artist Danessa Myricks purposefully formulated her line to have bright, uncompromising color for all skin tones, and hair is one of the latest black-owned enterprises that Sephora has entered. – KH

Many of my friends texted me and asked to know my favorite clean mascara. If you’re curious too, this is the one. It lengthens and separates elegantly, without any bits or lumps. This mascara will look good on the Erewhon Market. – KH

Good news: Paula’s Choice is now available at Sephora, including this crowd-pleasing sunscreen. It has a surprisingly light and milky texture for an SPF 50, and it goes on as smoothly as anything in your skin care routine. Instead of a strange white cast or greasy finish, it makes the skin feel subtly glowing and feels very moisturized throughout the day. – ES

With the summery, sweaty season fast approaching, your scalp will thank you for adding this invigorating shampoo to the range. The exfoliating blend of peppermint, spearmint, charcoal, coconut and tea tree oil enhances the buildup and soothes any itching, leaves your scalp clean and your bathroom smells like Junior Mints – a very nice bonus. – ES

I have tried many highlighters and always return to this one. This is one of the few that makes my skin look like I just turned on the lights, and manages it without using thick glitter particles or pesky violet pigments. Yes, it’s expensive, but just a little bit (I like to dot it inside the corners of the eyes and on the cheekbones), makes a big, glowing difference. – KH

Using this serum reminds me that I took the longest sip of water after having a workout that far exceeded my fitness level. It has the same Ahhhh, I’ve never tasted anything so delicious feeling for skin. With lots of hyaluronic acid, squalane and lactic acid, I like how it immediately makes my skin feel less thirsty and looks more beautiful and bouncer. – KH

If you’re an Augustinian Bader head, it’s my duty to point out that it’s for sale (and it rarely is). – KH

Drunk Elephant recently added this skin-enhancing and radiation-enhancing serum, just in time to clear up any ongoing battle damage from the now-annual battle with masks. Packed with 10 percent lactic acid (the same gently exfoliating good in Sunday Riley Good Genes twice) and fatty signal peptides, this silky serum is a great overall recovery for skin that has deteriorated slightly recently. – ES.

At the time, it was the paint masks that started the whole trend. They were soaked with the toner that Cate Blanchett had been using for decades; legendary makeup artist Pat McGrath uses it on her models behind the scenes. I’ve never seen it for sale, so create it now. – KH
