Summer Fridays

So much better than flowers and chocolate.

They're cute, they're gentle on strands and they make you look like you actually tried (even when you didn't).

And exactly why we became so obsessed with them.

Gorgeous sets, luxurious bath products, glitzy makeup palettes and more with price tags that are (pleasantly) surprising.

Featuring outfit-making accessories and must-have home accents.

These perfume sets, oils and gift boxes are anything but generic.

Including a face oil we'll be slathering on obsessively through winter, eye-brightening makeup and a multi-tasking moisturizing balm that does basically everything.

Bonus: It doesn't get much more luxurious than using plush organic cotton to sweep away the day's dirt, grime and mascara.

Featuring elevated scents for every taste and every budget.

Including glitters, glosses and amped-up neutrals.

Including gentle skin-care formulas that actually do what they promise on their labels, hair products that revive our lived-in styles and tinted lip balms with multi-sensory appeal.

For arms, legs and, if you want to get really fancy, a décolleté.

Including cream and oil (yes, oil!) blushes, potent brightening serums and sunscreens we can't wait to wear every single day this summer.

Including deals on some of our very favorite brands, like Summer Fridays, Biossance, Then I Met You and Pat McGrath Labs.

"I wish the beauty industry would stop colonizing and instead, use its power and influence to support Asian people and businesses."

Including luxurious body creams, fancy scented candles, soothing bath soaks and hair-rehabilitating treatments.

The founder of KNC Beauty shares her favorite products from her own brand — and plenty of others! — as well as how she discovers and tests new formulas.

It doesn't get easier than a gift set.

Including an exfoliator that doesn't irritate, a lymphatic drainage tool that has several beauty editors (and our beauty director) hooked and a peppy nail polish color perfect for the dog days of summer.

We will continue to update as more companies step forward.

"Our world has permanently changed, and our habits as a society have been impacted, so if you're waiting for things to be 'normal' again, you'll be waiting for a very long time."

These are the hair, makeup, skin-care and wellness finds that brought us a bit of comfort during a difficult month.

Ranging from shoes they can wear on long shifts to wedding gowns for upcoming nuptials.

Including a face mask that gives us "angel" skin and a makeup brush that's the next best thing to having legendary makeup artist Pat McGrath herself on hand.
