PRETTY SMART

The latest beauty products and tips that save time, money, and—best of all—your sanity.

From scratch

Treat itchy skin in the shower with Curél Itch Defense Body Wash ($7, walmart.com). This soapfree cleanser has calming oils that work with your skin’s pH to nix irritation before it happens.

Hair freshener

In addition to removing oil and sweat from hair, Living Proof Perfect Hair Day Dry Shampoo ($22, livingproof.com) imparts a time-released floral scent so your hair smells nice long after you spritz it.

Sleep mask

REN Wake Wonderful Night-Time Facial ($60, renskincare.com) brightens, repairs, and hydrates so you arise with plump, radiant skin, despite how little shut-eye you actually clocked.

Smart mouth

With the high shine of a gloss and the longevity of a stain, Giorgio Armani Ecstasy Lacquer ($38 each, armani beauty.com) offers vibrant color that lasts through lunch. It glides on thin, like water, then turns into a cream that adheres to lips without feeling dry or tacky. In 18 shades.

JUST PLAIN FUN.

COCOA LOCO

CRAZY GOOD AND COMPLETELY IRRESISTIBLE. YOU MAY WANT TO EAT FRESH COCOA BODY EXFOLIANT ($45, FRESH.COM), WHICH SMELLS LIKE A GIANT BOWL OF BROWNIE BATTER. INSTEAD, SLATHER IT ON DAMP SKIN AND LET CRUSHED COCOA AND COCONUT SHELLS WORK THEIR SOFTENING MAGIC.

Bounce back

Pressed powder settles in lines, while creams can feel heavy. Meet the latest trend that combines the best of both bases: Stila Perfectly Poreless Putty Perfector ($39, stilacosmetics.com) hides spots yet looks like skin.
