I love cream blushes and cream makeup in general for my dry skin, and this pot has become the perfect pair of jeans of my beauty routine. The neutral "no-makeup makeup" shade can be worn with anything and works tapped on eyelids and lips as well for a pulled-together look in 10 seconds. Best of all, it gives your skin a hint of light-reflecting glow that looks believable, as if you just woke up like that. Which I definitely did not! —April Franzino, Beauty Director

I saw these ‘healthier’ pizza rolls all over Instagram and finally caved and gave them a try. I am SO glad I did! These grain-free pizza bites are just like my childhood favorite, but made with sugar-free pizza sauce that sneaks in tons of veggies and fruit and a cassava flour crust for a gluten-free option. I love grabbing a few from the freezer to pop in the oven on days I don’t have time to make lunch, but I can still feel good about what I’m putting in my body. Plus, they’d make a great after school snack for kids or late night bite! It comes in four flavors, but you can catch me snacking on the classic cheese most often. —Arielle Weg, Associate Editor

This skincare-makeup hybrid is labeled as a primer, but it’s also the most natural-looking, dewy illuminator that can be applied all over the face (alone or under makeup) or tapped along cheekbones for a fresh radiance that instantly makes you look less tired. There’s none of that telltale frosty makeup look, just a healthy, glowing effect. —April Franzino, Beauty Director

Y2K is having a moment, and this hair crimper delivers the most effortless beachy waves that are right on trend. I am not one to do my hair, but this curler makes it so easy thanks to the three barrel iron and its ability to heat up within seconds. I get so many compliments when I style my hair using the crimper, which is a best-seller on Amazon. —Nicole Natale, Freelance Writer

If your pup needs some summer TLC, this breathable bed will be a hit. My friend’s dog could barely wait for her to get it set up before she plopped herself on it. It’s orthopedic and washable, and according to the dog, the bolsters are perfect for resting your head on. —Sarah Smith, Editor in Chief

I try to eat as healthy as possible, but I find I often need my daily ‘fix’ of a snack—and the crunchier, the better. My new go-to mid-afternoon treat is Bada Bean Bada Boom, made from broad beans, a.k.a. fava beans. Love that it comes in convenient 1 oz packages (portion control is a good thing!) and that it packs in 7grams of protein and comes in at 100 calories per bag. Sea Salt and Sweet Cinnamon are my favorites (amongst their many, many variety of flavors). —Sue Kakstys, Production Coordinator

As a very pale person who has a chance of burning even on the most cloudy of days, I’ve tried more sunscreens than I can count. This one by Banana Boat has been by FAR my favorite for the past few summers! I always hated the sticky and greasiness of most sunscreens, but this one goes on just like your favorite lotion, and it smells great too! It won’t break the budget and it’ll protect your skin from sun damage with SPF 50+. It's my must-have for summer and it could be yours too!

—Madeleine Haase, Assistant Editor

Talk about pretty in pink! This beautiful pop of pink is the pretty bright shade for summer—it’s bold without being too barbie-ish or neon. The formula is super hydrating, so your lips won’t get that dry, tight feeling even with a matte finish. Plus, the heart-shaped stick is just too cute. But the best part? $1 from each sale goes to the Mary Kay Ash Foundation, which helps fund breakthrough cancer research for women-related cancers and empower women and girls who have been victims of domestic violence and gender-based violence. —Dori Price, Freelance Beauty Editor

If you love the benefit of a long-lasting gel manicure but don’t love the damage it does to your nails, the Dazzle Dry nail system is going to be your new best friend. The four step process ends in a gel-like manicure without having to dry your nails under a light. You put the polish on just like regular lacquer, and after five minutes, it’s dry (thanks to a revolutionary formula and top coat) so you can go about the rest of your day. The manicure lasts up to three weeks on my nails with no chips, and the best part is that you can remove it at home with nail polish remover. I won’t use anything else on my nails these days—such a game changer for nail care! —Catharine Malzahn, Beauty Assistant

My son is transgender, and so to be a supportive (and, of course, fully embarrassing) mom, I wear lots of Pride merch all year round. I was so psyched to see LSKD's #REPWITHPRIDE line, because my workout wear is just plain-old same-old and I needed to up my game. The pocketed leggings and yoga bra are SO soft, but really high quality and sweat-wicking. I didn't realize until I read about them that the fabric is made from recycled materials and that the proceeds go toward helping to fund services that support LGBTQ+ youth like my kid and pretty much all his friends. They have men’s stuff as well, are size-inclusive, and their all-year-round line is also flattering and comfy. —Stephanie Dologoff, Deputy Director, Hearst Health Newsroom

I need to buy more pairs of these socks! Most no-show styles have a tendency to slip off my heels, but these stay securely in place all day thanks to little silicone grips in the back. They’re not quite as invisible as other no-shows, but they make up for it because they’re so comfy and come in cute colors. —Kaitlyn Pirie, Senior Editor

I’m always on the hunt for things to improve my backyard garden (but not clutter it up!), and after my recent trip to Montana where there were ~TONS~ of hummingbirds using this very feeder at a friend’s house, I have to say I’m hoping some might enjoy my set-up this year. The nectar is easy to make too—just add one cup of sugar to four cups of boiling water, let cool, and add to the bottle, which screws into the base (I add only half at a time since the feeder requires regular cleaning, and the nectar keeps in the fridge for a week or so).

Despite being born with natural blonde locks, my hair has darkened considerably over the years. So, I am no stranger to highlights and bleach. While I love my bottle blonde, it can be pretty tricky to maintain. Brassy, uneven shades tend to paint my strands between visits with my stylist and I have tried a wide array of products to combat the issue. Some dry out my hair, some add to the mixture of shades, some have turned my hair straight up purple. Enter: Pravana’s Perfect Blonde Masque. The name seriously does not lie—this treatment makes my blonde look like I just left the salon. Best of all? Not a dry or purple strand in sight. —Shannen Zitz, Editorial Assistant

You know how at fancy Italian restaurants, they bring out a little bowl of very, very special olive oil to dip your bread into? That’s what Olio Piro reminds me of. It’s made in Tuscany from just-picked olives, with a flavor that manages to be both spicy and fruity. It’s going to be drizzled over every tomato-mozz-basil salad I make this summer. It’s won all the awards and would make a great hostess gift: heart-healthy elegance! —Lisa Bain, Executive Director, Health Newsroom

If you have dry skin like I do, finding the right hydrating face mask is a must, and this one from Kiehl’s knocks it out of the park. The gel-like texture feels so cooling on the skin, and it noticeably hydrates and calms down redness in just five minutes! I especially love to use it during the summer months as the calendula and aloe vera are so soothing after being out in the sun. —Jenn Gonick, Editorial Intern
