—Perrie Samotin, electronic directorTrying a new acid toner is a bit a crapshoot: It's going to either wreak havoc on my sensitive, acne prone skin or make me appear to be I had the best facial of my life.

Its what BareMinerals calls a “paddle brush” given its flat back and packed, wiry bristles on front. It's also a clean, thoroughly plant based formula, but its innovation doesn't stop there.

—L. S. My coffee obsession hasn't been especially kind to my teeth over the years, but every time I've tried to decide to a whitening regimen, the products either feel like an excessive amount of work or they do not give enough of a payoff. So when I heard Crest has been operating on the technology for its new whitening emulsion—a formulation that looks like a gel but has the ability to penetrate deeper to tackle yellowing to your teeth—for nearly twenty years, it got my interest. Putting it on is far easier than a whitening strip. You just squeeze a little of the formulation out of the tube onto the applicator and spread it to your teeth.

The bendy tip of the applicator lets you get into the nooks and crannies where classic strips or brushes can't get to, and there is also an on the go edition that lets you put the product on at once from the tube.

When I got an email introducing me to “the best clean shampoo you’ve never heard of,” I was instantly intrigued and began doing my research. Now I wonder what rock I've been living under. Enter Masami, which claims to present your hair “large levels of botanical hydration without weighing it down. ” I’m happy to say it’s true. Washing with its shampoo and conditioner jogged my memory of when my mom used to bathe my hair as a kid, with a smell ever so simple and pure. And my hair—which is so heavy thanks to not having a haircut in six months—felt lighter than ever.

But that’s Masami’s goal. It’s formulated with the ocean botanical, Mekabu, and ingredients like japonica laminar, blueberry extract, aloe, and grapeseed oil. Plus, it’s sulfate , phthalate , paraben , and cruelty free. At $38 each for the shampoo and conditioner, it’s in no way cheap, but pondering all of the money I’m saving on blowouts, I’m happy to justify it. —Jessica Radloff, West Coast editorI've these days switched to double cleaning only in the evenings to make certain I'm not stripping my skin of much needed hydration now that we've officially transitioned into fall. This balm has a sorbet like texture that instantly starts to melt if you put it on and a mild scent that's a little grainy, a little floral because of the combination of rice bran and chrysanthemum and normal very delightful.

On a pure experiential note, there's anything very fun about slicking your self in oil and turning into a human strobe light for a moment. This balm easily emulsifies once I go in with water and leaves my skin feeling gently cleansed and prepped for a better step in my routine. —Michella Oré, editorial assistantSay what you may about 2020, but it has been a good year for at least one thing, and that's really great new mascaras. Historically, clean mascaras have been something I've wanted to like, but none ever really get the XXL type volume and lift I want. Then Kosas came along this month and put an end to the challenge. This formulation has a similar thickness of big time best dealers, and amplifies your lashes with a similar extreme fluffiness.

It did transfer a bit after the first 15 minutes—which is not a deal breaker for me; all my favorite volumizing formulation have some fallout—but after a short touch up, it didn't smudge again. I like it. —L. S. My skin needs an entire army of products and a spironolactone prescription to keep it in check, but to make up for it, I was rewarded with hair that takes basically zero maintenance.

Because of that, I've never put much idea into the items and tools I use, typically deciding upon anything is cheapest or easily available to me. But the second I used this Harry Josh brush, I understood that luxury tools can in reality make a difference. The mix of nylon and boar bristles works on both wet and dry hair, and it gently detangles and smooths with out making my waves frizz and fray. It's also ideal for backcombing second day hair. Even though I have not had a trim since March, it makes my hair look freshly styled, and at $50, it's still fairly cheap in comparison with most luxury brushes. It's my new always brush.
