Leave it to Milani to create a lipstick that looks hella splurgy but won’t break the bank. Fetish Lipstick is a creamy, high-pigment lippie that comes in 12 daring shades. These range from Kink (a bright purple) to Tied Up (an earthy brown) to Lustful (a playful coral-pink). It also comes in a matte collection, and the names are equally as raunchy!

For Healthy Skin: Uoma by Sharon C Go Awf! Au Naturel Cleansing Oil, $15

Cleansing every day is essential, but summer sweat, salt, and sunscreen can make the job a bit trickier. That’s why we love this au naturel cleansing oil from Uoma by Sharon C, the budget-friendly off-shoot of  Uoma Beauty. It’s formulated with simple ingredients, including olive, castor, and grapeseed oils along with botanical extracts and vitamin E. The oil formulation grabs onto the day’s gunk and rinses away for soft skin. For a thorough cleanse, we recommend following up with a gel or foam cleanser.

For Major Lashes: e.l.f. Big Mood Mega Volume Lifting Mascara, $7

Drugstore fave, e.l.f., is back at it again with their Big Mood Mega Volume Lifting Mascara. Since debuting this summer it’s received allll the rave reviews. We love the hourglass shape that hugs lashes, the lifting and separating effect, and the creamy, moisturizing formula that’s resistant to flaking and smudging.

For Protected Strands: L’Oreal Paris Elvive Dream Lengths Heat Slayer Pre-Iron Leave-In Spray, $7
