Promising review: "I’m terrible at makeup. I could never get fake lashes right, which always bummed me out since they look amazing. Then, I got these for my birthday, and one night I decided to give them a try. Honestly, I was blown away by how easy they were to apply and how fantastic they looked. I was so sure they’d just fall off in a few minutes since I’m such a newbie, but I was totally wrong. They stayed on all night. I felt like a total queen, taking pictures and videos until 5 a.m. I applied them at 5 p.m. and removed them at 6 a.m. They’re now my favorite makeup item and an absolute must-have. Whether I’m going for a full glam or a natural look, I’m obsessed, and every time I buy them, it’s totally worth it. Now I’ve bought them more than once because I’m in love!!" — Hope Craig

Okay, y'all, I was totally a die-hard Urban Decay All Nighter fan, but this setting spray kept showing up all over my TikTok FYP. So I thought, why not give it a shot? Y'ALL! This stuff — *THIS STUFF* is pure magic, and I’m absolutely speechless. I have the oiliest skin and very few products actually do what they claim. I tested it on a super busy day — I went axe throwing, partied on a boat, napped, and my makeup looked flawless 12 hours later. But the ultimate test — which wasn’t even supposed to be a test — was when I attended a funeral, cried all day, and checked my makeup at the end of the day. MY MAKEUP HADN’T MOVED. No streaks, nothing! I’m officially obsessed. This is my new fave setting spray, and it deserves all the hype it gets. Plus, it’s way cheaper, which is a bonus because I’m all about saving this holiday season.
Get it from Ulta or Amazon for $15.

28. An almost unreal Too Faced Born This Way Concealer that allows you to skip foundation altogether because, let’s face it, who has the time? It’s a lightweight, full-coverage formula that seamlessly conceals, contours, highlights, *and* retouches in one go, saving you precious time on your base routine.
Promising reviews: "What I love most about this concealer is the incredible color selection and how perfectly it matches my skin tone! No other product compares in terms of shade match, I’ve tried Lancôme, YSL, and a bunch of others — but none of them blend into my skin like this, and it covers my dark circles without needing any color corrector underneath. I have dark circles and dry skin." —AzinDsh
