Infrastructure Structurizing Paste
First to recommend
Description
This is the best haircare product I've used. I have typical Asian hair -- thin, sleek, no body. Using this paste allows me to add texture and create waves that stay throughout the day (just by spreading it through the ends then wrapping it in a bun). That kind of makes me happy.

Duwop Lip Venom
15 people recommended this item
Description
This will make your lips look Angelina-esque (without the collagen). I never leave the house without my keys, wallet and lip gloss. (via Sephora)

Happy Bunny "Poison" lip gloss
First to recommend
Description
So the text has the word "Poison" crossed out then "Lip gloss for Frend" scrawled over it. I'm not a serial killer or anything but every time I look at mine I giggle. Plus it makes other twisted people laugh.

Benefit Cosmetics Boi-ing Concealer/Shadow Base
5 people recommended this item
Description
I just bought a new under eye concealer, but as soon as I run out I'm buying this one because it's amazing.

Sephora Brand Smoothing Primer
First to recommend
2 people recommended this item
Description
Smashbox's "Photo Finish" primer is known to be the best primer out there. However, if you don't want to spend $36 on primer than Sephora's primer is great as well. It goes on as smoothly and light, but doesn't have the minerals added by Smashbox. However, if you feel your skin is sufficiently mineralized and all you need is a way to make your face powder or MAC Studio Fix appear smooth (thereby making your complexion seem flawless) then this is the product to get.

Sephora: Tarte Natural Swirl Cheek Stain: Blush
4 people recommended this item
Description
I'm not big on blush but this stick is fabulous for those days when you need a little bit of color. You can make the color faint or strong, and even blush idiots like myself can apply it decently. (via Sephora)

Just Feet Deep Callus Foot Scrub
First to recommend
Description
I bought this because (TMI warning) winter shoes had left a callus on my big toe the size of Tibet. Intimidated by the sheer toughness of the callus, I was skeptical as to how well this product would work-- in 60 seconds no less. Yet, it delivered on all counts. No more gross cutting or reading a 2003 issue of Entertainment Weekly while some Vietnamese lady hacks away at my feet with a pumice stone for twenty minutes. (via Walgreens)

Jergens Natural Glow Daily Moisturizer
12 people recommended this item
Description
I generally avoid the sun for my skin’s sake. But sometimes I do feel blindingly pale next to all the tanned Angelenos. A Mystic tan makes me look too orange, and who has time for another beauty appointment anyway? I’m going to try for just a touch of sun-kissed color with Jergens.

MAC Cosmetics | Fluidline
14 people recommended this item
Description
I have Asian eyelids (nonexistent crease) which makes finding a good eyeliner very challenging. Fluidline is easy to apply (with precision even) and stays on. With many other eyeliners, 20 minutes after I blink I have inky arches over my upper lids. This is one of the best eyeliners out there. Try "Macroviolet" or "Waveline." (via MAC Cosmetics)

Philosophy Melon Daiquiri Bath & Shower Gel

Description
This bath gel makes you feel and smell pretty darn delicious. (via Sephora)
