What I’m loving right now….

When I was a magazine editor, we had a beauty closet the size of a suburban bedroom stocked with the latest skin, hair, makeup, nail, and fragrance launches. It was literally my job to try them all.

The products that made it home to my tiny bathroom vanity had to be reeaally special. So, these six products are what I consider my “vanity products”—the products that I’m loving—and using right now.

  • Laneige Lip Sleeping Mask Intense Hydration with Vitamin C

    Laneige Lip Sleeping Mask Intense Hydration with Vitamin C, $24

    All the cool kids are using it! My tween and teen were into these lip masks before me, but I quickly realized why. The leave-on overnight mask leaves my dryness-prone lips feeling supple and smooth.

  • Biography Revitalize Body Oil

    Biography Revitalize Body Oil, $78

    My all-time favorite body oil! It not only deeply hydrates with its lengthy list of plant-based oils but also contains Guarana seed oil, which has more skin-tightening caffeine than the coffee bean. Use code PRETTYLOCAL15 for 15% off at checkout.

  • e.l.f. Poreless Face Primer

    e.l.f. Poreless Face Primer, $10

    My fashion and beauty style is always a mix of high and low. I know when to splurge and where to save. This is a "save" that performs as well (if not better) than pricier versions. It goes on creamy, has a matte finish, and instantly blurs my enlarged pores and fine lines. The perfect prep before foundation.

  • Biologique Recherche Creme ADN Metamorphique

    Biologique Recherche Creme ADN Metamorphique, $200

    Speaking of high-low beauty, this is a splurge that makes my skin feel incredibly soft and more lifted. I've been using it since a visit to the Biologique Recherche Ambassade in Boston. I think it will help prevent the dry, flaky skin I typically get with the changing season.

  • Revision Intellishade Original

    Revision Intellishade Original Anti-Aging Moisturizer with Sunscreen, $86

    I picked up this product at Permanent Touch Cosmetics after my BBL/MOXI treatment. I was impressed that it looked like actual makeup. Many tinted sunscreens have a grayish undertone. This has SPF 46 and hydrates and brightens skin.

  • Color Wow Dream Coat

    Color Wow Dream Coat Supernatural Spray Anti-Frizz Treatment, $28

    Truth be told, I don't deal with a lot of frizz with my fine strands. But this spray makes my hair look super smooth and shiny—like I just had a salon blowout. It's activated by the blow dryer and lasts three to four shampoos.
