Why we love it: Soft, shimmery, and super-shiny, Lip Recharge is the grown-up gloss that makes our inner child happy while also giving our lips some much-needed TLC. As you swipe it on, peptides get to work smoothing and plumping lines, vitamin E strengthens your barrier, and shea butter deeply moisturizes for a softer pout. Add in a cooling metal applicator, and you’ve got yourself a small moment of self-care. Even better, the pink, brown, gold, and lavender shades are sheer enough to be versatile—wear them alone or on top of your favorite lip color for some added shimmer and shine. There’s also a clear option for no-makeup days when you just need something that’s extra nourishing.
“My lips are constantly dry and chapped, so I’m always trying new lip treatments as they come across my desk. This one from Jones Road is lovely—it feels soft and nourishing on my lips, but it isn’t too thick or sticky. I love the cooling metal applicator feel—it makes me feel a little fancy as I apply it. And the colors are gorgeous! They’re lightly shimmery, with super-small flecks throughout (no chunky glitter) and a beautiful, highly glossy finish. My lips feel hydrated and look so healthy (no matter how much they’re really peeling). Alone, with a liner, or on top of lipstick, it’s the restorative step my lip combos were missing. The shade names are on a sticker on the back of each tube, and the sticker comes off easily, so I’m a little concerned that eventually I won’t remember which shades I have. Not a dealbreaker, though!” —Sarah Felbin, senior commerce editor

Breathable Base: What the Foundation
Jones Road
What the Foundation
Why we love it: The internet had a lot to say about Jones Road’s What the Foundation when it first came on the scene, partly because the formula is so unique. But after a learning curve came a devoted fan base that includes plenty of Allure editors. Packed with hydrating sodium hyaluronate and a host of plant-based oils (like castor seed, olive oil, and antioxidant-packed ginger root oil), WTF has a thin, creamy texture that blends in quickly and seamlessly. The light-to-medium coverage blurs imperfections, creating a smooth, radiant canvas for the rest of your makeup. Sixteen shades across pink, neutral, yellow, golden, red, and deep undertones are designed to suit a wide range of skin tones.
