1. Yes To Liquid Hand Soap ($3.99 each)
I’m the weirdo who washes her hands about, oh, let’s see… 20 times a day? I’m so not kidding, either. And I’m REALLY picky about my hand soaps, but I thoroughly plan to love the dickens out of this bottle of Yes to Liquid Hand Soap because it doesn’t dry out my skin, even when I wash my hands hella times.
Also, the Marula Oil Mango var-eh-TAY smells like marvelous mangoes, but here’s the thing: it doesn’t smell fake, which is important if you wash your hands as much as I do, because, as you know, it’s nice to have a yummy fragrance waft up into yo’ nose.
It removes dirt, oils and all manner of baby goo, and it easily rinses off and doesn’t leave behind an annoying residue.
VERDICT: Need!

2. E.L.F. Cosmetics Illuminating Palette ($6)
The four-pan E.L.F. Cosmetics Illuminating Palette is darned-near perfect for the price. The finely milled powders look really expensive and natural.
The highlighters are on the neutral- and cool-toned sides, which is a cool surprise (haha, bad pun) because of how many highlighter palettes skew warm.
The shimmer in these shades is also low-key — which again makes them seem higher end than they are.
Heck, I’d go so far as to call these drugstore Hourglass Ambient powders.
