You'd Look So Much Better If You Did Any Of These Things, According To Stylists & Beauty Experts
 

 

Straight from the pros’ mouths to your fashion & beauty routine.

As easy as it is to look drab (think: wrinkled shirts, scuffed up shoes, or non-sun-protected skin), it’s just as easy to make yourself look fab. I’m all for low-effort, high-reward fashion and beauty hacks, so I reached out to makeup artists, hair stylists, and fashion stylists to bring their professional recommendations straight to you. From easy ways to achieve that no-makeup makeup look to trendy accessories that spice up your wardrobe, here are 50 things you can do to look so much better, according to experts.

Moisturizing & Brightening Up Your Under Eyes With These Best-Selling Pink Masks

Grace & Stella Pink Gel Under-Eye Patches (24-Pairs)

“[These] eye masks really give eyes a wake up call!” says Rachel Lozina, founder of Blue Water Spa in Oyster Bay, New York. Packed with hyaluronic acid and hydrolyzed vegetable protein, these masks moisturize, revitalize, brighten, and plump the sensitive skin under your eyes. Lozina’s pro tip: “I love to use them when they are cold because the cooling effect helps reduce puffiness, bags and swelling.” Plus, they come individually wrapped so you can use them on-the-go.

Hydrating Your Hair With This Viral Argan Oil-Infused Hair Mask

Arvazallia Hydrating Argan Oil Hair Mask

Lozina says this super popular hair mask is “worth the hype for sure.” She explains, “This multitasking hair mask/deep conditioner battles frizzy damaged hair, leaving hair silky smooth plus it smells great.” The hydrating Argan oil targets weak, over-processed hair to restore, strengthen to reveal softer, healthier looking hair. Just apply to wet or damp hair, leave in for five to 10 minutes, then rinse out.

Concealing & Contouring With This Best-Selling, Easy-To-Apply Concealer

Maybelline Instant Age Rewind Eraser

“I use this product regularly and believe it rivals some of the most touted concealers in the world,” Lozina says. She isn’t the only fan of this bestselling concealer — it has over 131,000 five-star ratings. It can be used to brighten under your eyes and cover unwanted blemishes. And if you get a few colors, it can also be used as a contour.

Lengthening Your Lashes With This Non-Clumping, Cult Favorite Mascara

Maybelline Sky High Mascara

Not only does this mascara have a unique flexible brush that separates lashes, but the formula itself is packed with bamboo extract to create long, full lashes that won’t clump or smudge. “It mimics false lashes with its lengthening and curling formula,” Lozina says. “Plus, it’s smudge-proof, flake-free but not waterproof so it’s reasonable to remove at the end of the day.” It’s safe to wear if you have sensitive eyes or wear contacts, and it comes in standard colors as well as some fun shades to add a whimsical touch to your makeup routine.

Creating A Perfect Cat Eye With The Mechanical Eye Pencil That Has 82,000 5-Star Ratings

NYX Professional Makeup Vivid Rich Mechanical Eye Pencil

To top off your makeup routine, Lozina recommends this eye pencil that “draws like liquid eyeliner” and “stays put all day.” It’s mechanical and retractable, so when you need more you simply twist the bottom — no need for messy sharpening. It doesn’t smudge, effortlessly glides on, and has over a dozen densely pigmented colors to really make your eyes stand out.

And, the other side features a slightly pointed edge to help create precise and straight parts.

Removing Grease & Adding Volume By Applying A Setting Powder To Your Roots

One unexpected hack Abdullah recommends that elevates your hair instantly: “sweeping face powder into your hairline.” She explains, “It takes away grease, in case you couldn't wash your hair. And if you turn your head upside down, it can increase volume right in the front.”

This setting powder is super lightweight and silky and applies — to your face or your hair — sheer. It blends right in, removing grease and adding a matte effect to your hairline that makes it look clean and voluminous instantly. Plus, it’s super compact so you can take it with you for a refresh anywhere you need one.

Washing Your Face Regularly With This Hydrating & Gentle Cleanser

La Roche-Posay Toleriane Hydrating Gentle Cleanser

A super simple, inexpensive, and easy way to solve a ton of common skin issues? Regularly washing your face with something like this gentle cleanser. “One of the main causes of many skin concerns is the inconsistency of people washing their face,” notes makeup artist Heather Adessa Spadaro.

This daily cleanser is packed with niacinamide and prebiotic thermal water to gently remove pollutants, excess oil, makeup, and impurities to reveal smooth and dewy skin. It helps your face retain moisture to plump and hydrate while strengthening your skin’s natural protective barrier.

Stocking Up On Soft, Cheap Pillowcases & Changing Them Often

Bedsure Satin Pillowcase (2 Pack)

Another key thing Spadaro recommends to get your skin looking better than ever? Maintaining a clean pillowcase.

These popular pillowcases are super cheap and machine-washable, making it easy to stock up.

Finding The Perfect Shade Of Foundation & Blending It Into Your Neck
