Unite's celeb-beloved texturizing spray, Dermalogica's at-home peel that you won't forget to use and Charlotte Tilbury's new gloss-meets-treatment is a must.

Celebrities love this texturizing spray

If you haven’t tried a texturizing spray to add volume and fullness to freshly styled or day-two hair, you best get on that. Similar to dry shampoo but heavier on the texture-boosting benefits and lighter on the oil-absorption, this one product will become a mainstay in your routine—I promise. Oribe’s version gets a lot of attention (and rightfully so), but Unite Hair’s Texturiza Spray is a less expensive yet equally as awesome option.

Word has it that Kim Kardashian, Nina Dobrev, Julianne Hough, Sofia Vergara and Demi Lovato are all devoted fans, and have you ever seen one of them have a bad hair day? And at $31.50 versus Oribe’s $46 price tag, you get a lot more for your volume- and texture-enhancing buck.

A radiance-revealing treatment that reminds you to use it

The most potent skincare products aren’t going to do anything for your skin unless you remember to use them—and it’s easy to forget about something when it’s tucked away in a drawer (especially if you’re on the tidy side and don’t like leaving tubes and jars out on your countertop). This can also be an issue when you’re short on counter space, but the brains over at Dermalogica came up with a brilliant solution, and you can see it in action with the new Rapid Reveal Peel.

Featuring a reusable case that suctions onto the mirror or wall in your bathroom, you’ll never forget to do this exfoliating treatment (and you won’t want to skip it once you see its incredible skin-smoothing and glow-boosting results). Packed with a blend of alpha-hydroxy acids and enzymes that sweep away dead cells and accelerate turnover to keep fresh, healthy, radiant skin on the surface, this at-home peel offers professional-grade results without over-drying the skin. You can start with an optional three-day intensive kick-off (i.e. one treatment a day for three days straight) followed by weekly use to maintain glowing skin—and you’ll see fine lines, wrinkles, dullness and rough texture improve before your very eyes.

If you’re new to chemical peels (or still not sold), you can snap a photo of your face on RapidRevealPeelMirror.com to get a simulation of how your skin could look after completing the regimen—and if that doesn’t make you want to run out and buy this, I don’t know what will. Best of all, the case is perfect for keeping your products organized when traveling (and saving much-needed counter space that’s often hard to come by in hotels these days).

A quick tip for #MakeupMonday

Apologies for today’s brief post, but I’m sick AGAIN and can barely muster up the energy to nap. I hardly ever get anything more than a new product alert out of promotional emails, but this gem (which I received over the weekend) is further proof that Charlotte Tilbury rocks…

For a plumper, prettier pout without doing a full-on lip, simply outline with a nude-pink liner such as Tilbury’s Lip Cheat in “Pillow Talk” and top with a clear gloss. Sure you could use C.T.’s Collagen Lip Bath, but any plumping gloss will do.

You’re welcome!
