BEAUTY
vanishing act
Covering undereye circles is no mean
feat, but Laura Mercier Under Eye
Perfecters do the trick. On their own,
the shades look odd—mauve for fair
skin, orange for olive and dark
tones—because they’re meant to
counteract the circles’ purply hue.
Top with your regular concealer and
no one will be the wiser; $22.
CLEANUP CREW
If there’s one thing sink environs don’t
need, it’s another doohickey taking up
counter/cabinet/shelf space. Which is
why we have to hand it to L’Oréal Paris
Go 360° Clean. The face cleanser, which
comes in gel, cream, scrub, and sensitive
skin versions, provides its own scrublet
that ingeniously snaps back into the bottle
or suctions onto your mirror or tile. One
small step for cluttered-kind; $7.

We know there are still some of you out there dodging
the SPF, and we’ve heard the excuses: Facial sun-
screens are too greasy, you like your old non-SPF
moisturizer, UV-blocking mineral makeup doesn’t feel
good. Two words: fluid sunscreen. These watery facial
formulas boast serious antioxidant and SPF levels with
weightless matte consistencies that make them easy to
invisibly layer under makeup.
