An everyday beauty kit doesn't need to be large. A small set of products you love and use often will serve you better than a crowded shelf.
For your face
- A gentle cleanser you are happy to use morning and night.
- A moisturizer with a texture that feels comfortable on your skin.
- A daily sunscreen you enjoy wearing, so you actually wear it.
For a polished look
- A versatile lip product, such as a tinted balm that works on its own or under color.
- One easy complexion product, like a skin tint or concealer, for days you want a little coverage.
- Brow and lash basics for definition in a minute or two.
For hair and body
- A shampoo and conditioner suited to your hair type.
- A body moisturizer to apply after showering.
- A hand cream to keep in your bag or on your desk.
Keeping your kit fresh
Check the period-after-opening symbol (a small open jar with a number such as 6M or 12M) on your products, store them away from heat and direct sunlight, and replace anything that changes in smell, color, or texture.
