Our 30 picks for the best beauty products EVER

Bobbi Brown Long-Wear Even Finish Foundation SPF 15 ($47): "The very first shade I tried blended into my skin PERFECTLY, which was sort of shocking for me at first given the fact that I've struggled so much to find a good match with foundation. It was really easy with this line. The formula felt smooth and smelled great. Plus, it provided tons of coverage without ever looking cakey or even like I was wearing makeup. I just looked like me, only flawless!" –Mariela Rosario, Managing Editor

BareMinerals Matte SPF 15 Foundation ($27): "What I love about this mineral powder foundation is that not only does it give you flawless coverage, but it also absorbs excess oil without drying your skin. It provides such a natural finish that you won’t look or feel like you’re wearing makeup." –Johanna Ferreira, Beauty & Fashion Staff Writer

L’Oréal Paris SuperBlend Liquid Makeup ($9): "This is honestly the first line of drugstore makeup EVER that gave me not one, but three different shades to choose from that not only matched my skin but provided subtle, nuanced differences. I could easily choose from different shades that would work if I was a bit tanner or a bit paler on any given day. The choice of warm, cool, or neutral undertones was AMAZING! The formula was totally smooth and felt great on my skin, which I found out was because it's made with no oils, fragrances, or pore-clogging fillers."  –Mariela Rosario, Managing Editor

Tarte Natural Cheek Stain ($30): "The candy-looking bar of this cheek stain looks really dark, but it goes on smooth and deposits just the right amount of blush on my cheeks. It makes me look alive and awake on those days that I most need it (read: when my baby woke up more times during the night than I can even remember). It also lasts all day, so no need to waste time reapplying!" –Yuliana Gomez, Assistant Managing Editor

Bobbi Brown BB Cream SPF 35 ($42): "I was really concerned that their medium/deep option wasn't going to be dark enough for my skin tone, but was pleasantly surprised at the way it seamlessly blended in. What really won me over was the way it totally even my skin tone, covering up dark circles and spots without the use of ANY concealer!" –Mariela Rosario, Managing Editor

Maybelline Instant Age Rewind Neutralizer Concealer ($7): "If you suffer from under-eye bags, I recommend that you use Instant Maybelline Age Rewind Concealer. As soon as you put it on, those tired eyes of yours return to life." –Sandra Ortiz, Staff Writer

Bobbi Brown Face Touch Up Stick ($24): "If you are looking for a concealer to help hide imperfections such as dark circles or blemishes, then I recommend that you use the Bobbi Brown Face Touch Up Stick. This incredible formula makes it easier to correct those imperfections, in such a natural way that no one will even notice you have makeup on." –Sandra Ortiz, Staff Writer

CoverGirl Smoky ShadowBlast Eyeshadow Stick ($9): "I couldn't ask for an easier smoky eye! This little double-sided tube did wonders for my eyes, creating a dramatic smoky eye perfect for night. It wasn't overwhelming either, and soooo easy to use. And huge bonus? I could wear the lighter silvery side during the day and as a highlighter." –Yuliana Gomez, Assistant Managing Editor

Rimmel's Lasting Finish Lipstick by Kate Moss ($5): "I am absolutely in LOVE with Rimmel’s Lasting Finish by Kate (Moss) lipstick. The minute I put it on, I knew that I would be loyal for the rest of my life. This lipstick glided on smoothly, so I knew that it had a good amount of moisture. However, unlike previous lipsticks I’ve owned, it didn’t bleed and was very comfortable to wear. My absolute FAVORITE part about the lipstick, though, is that it’s got the longest life of any lipstick I’ve ever tried before! I put it on in the morning and it lasted through breakfast, lunch AND my afternoon snack. I was simply amazed that I didn’t have to reapply all day. This is definitely the best overall lipstick of 2012!" –Irina Gonzalez, Staff Writer

Revlon’s Just Bitten Kissable Balm ($9): "I’ve been a lip stain devotee ever since I first tried Revlon’s Just Bitten a few years ago. The only thing that I never loved is that certain lip stains would end up drying out and chapping my lips. That’s why I finally decided to try some of the new moisturizing lip stains that came on the market this year and, I have to say, I fell deeply in love with Revlon’s Just Bitten Kissable balm stain. The lip stain glided on very smoothly and was very easy to wear all day. Oh yes, and it lasted me ALL day which was definitely the best part." –Irina Gonzalez, Staff Writer

Smashbox Limitless Liquid Eyeliner ($22): "I’m embarrassed to admit that until I discovered this miracle eyeliner I was barely able to do a cat-eye. The precision point on this liquid eyeliner is so foolproof, anyone is capable of creating neat and precise lines. My favorite part? The liner doesn’t run, smudge or wear away." –Johanna Ferreira, Beauty & Fashion Staff Writer

CoverGirl Clump Crusher Mascara ($7): "I’m the kind of girl who doesn’t really have a problem spending $30 on a mascara, as long as it gives me the results I’m looking for. It’s hard for me to find a drugstore formula that meets my expectations, but this mascara definitely did not disappoint. Not only did it leave my lashes dramatically long and thick, but it neatly separated each lash without ANY clumps!" –Johanna Ferreira, Beauty & Fashion Staff Writer

Lancôme Bi-Facil Double Action Eye Makeup Remover ($27): "I have yet to find an eye makeup remover that works better than this one. It not only gently and effectively removed any trace of eye makeup, but it also conditions and soothes my skin without leaving it oily." –Johanna Ferreira, Beauty & Fashion Staff Writer

Cargo Bronzer ($30): "Cargo is famous for their bronzer and after finally trying it, I can see why. It gives you enough color to make it seem like you still have that summer glow without looking unnatural. Plus, it goes on so easily, you don't have to worry about it looking or feeling cakey on your skin." –Michelle Regalado, Staff Writer

Revlon Speed Fast Dry Nail Enamel ($6): "After applying two coats of this amazing polish, my nails had literally dried in just a minute. The built-in topcoat left them smooth and glossy. It’s the perfect nail polish for the busy chica on the go!" –Johanna Ferreira, Beauty & Fashion Staff Writer

Lancôme Gentifique Serum ($84): "If I had to choose some treasures to take with me to a deserted island, this serum would be among the things I definitely packed! If there’s a grade better than A+, I would give it to this product, it’s THAT spectacular and works wonders." –Vicglamar Torres, Senior Editor

Estée Lauder Advanced Time Zone ($65): "Without a doubt, this is the ideal cream for women who, like me, are saying their goodbyes to the third decade in their life. One of the advantages of this miracle moisturizer is that its texture is a bit heavier, which  is great for cold, dry winter days, when skin is more prone to damage." –Vicglamar Torres, Senior Editor

Estee Lauder Advanced Time Zone Night Cream ($70): "I love the fact that Estée Lauder Advanced Time Zone Night doesn't feel heavy and is easy to apply. Best of all is that it makes my typically dry skin feel silky smooth and dewy, and it doesn't irritate it. While I realize that no night cream will transform my skin in one night, I do believe that some of the benefits of this formula are evident right away." –Johanna Torres, Editor-In-Chief

Radical Skincare- Age defying Exfoliating Pads ($95): "This is truly a product that I cannot be without when I travel (or every day!). Aside from the fact that every time I use one of these I feel like my skin is being cleaned of impurities, as time has gone by, I’ve noticed that my skin actually looks younger. It’s another A+ product!" –Vicglamar Torres, Senior Editor

CliniqueNEW Even Better Eyes Dark Circle Corrector: "The truth is that I never believed that under eye circles could be fixed, because ever since I can remember I’ve had them. But this cream has actually made me change my opinion. After using it for 12 weeks, I feel like my dark circles have actually gotten lighter!" –Vicglamar Torres, Senior Editor

L’Oréal Paris Elnett Satin Hairspray Extra Strong Hold Unscented ($15): "I have yet to find a hairspray that leaves me with these kind of results. This legendary formula holds my looks all day without leaving it stiff or flaky." –Johanna Ferreira, Beauty & Fashion Staff Writer

John Frieda Luxurious Volume Anytime Volume Refresher Dry Shampoo ($7): "I am a dry shampoo addict, especially these days as the frazzled mom of an 8-month-old baby, I don't have time to wash my hair every day (not to mention that it's probably not good for my tresses to wash so often anyways!). This John Frieda spray is not only affordable, but smells great, and–best of all–doesn't leave a trace of white residue. I love it." –Yuliana Gomez, Assistant Managing Editor

Mixed Chicks Leave-In Conditioner ($17): "It's hard to find a curling creme that won't give hair that unwanted crunchy texture. Mixed Chick's Leave-in Conditioner didn't just de-frizz my hair, it also acted as an enhancer to my natural curls. It added bounce and shine to my ringlets, leaving them more defined. It also felt much lighter on my hair than other products." –Michelle Regalado, Staff Writer

DevaCurl No-Poo Shampoo ($19): "Although Devacurl is meant for women with curly hair, I have straight hair and it worked wonders! On those days that I don't want to strip my hair of its natural oils, this is the perfect solution. Not only does it go on smooth, but it smells delish!" –Giselle Castro, Editorial Assistant

Moroccanoil Restorative Hair Mask ($40): "The Moroccanoil Restorative Hair Mask, is a high-performance treatment that is rich in argan oil and is a real treat! What I found to be the biggest plus is the fact it deep conditions but doesn't leave the oily residue that other similar products do. Yes, it is a luxury item, but many of my friends swear by this product and save each penny to indulge in a product that is a clear favorite." –Johanna Torres, Editor-In Chief

John Frieda Luxurious Volume Touchably Full Shampoo ($7): "I have fine, straight hair, and this shampoo did wonders for it. After just one wash, I noticed the difference when I dried it–it was bouncy and with more body. I love that I didn't have to pay a whole lot of money for a fancy schmancy product to get the results this awesome shampoo gave me." –Yuliana Gomez, Assistant Managing Editor

Pureology Hydrate Conditioner ($30): "I loved the fact that pureology felt super refreshing. The menthol in the shampoo is the perfect wake-me-up in the morning or if you need an extra energy boost. It also left my mane smooth and soft while protecting my hair color–which I loved!" –Giselle Castro, Editorial Assistant

Kérastase Nutritive Oléo-Relax Hair Mask ($61): "My hair is naturally straight, but use of blow driers, flat irons, and other chemical treatments have damaged it slowly over time. If there’s one ally my hair’s care, it’s this nutritive cream. Besides, I love its fragrance and its texture, because it really is one of those products that leaves hair soft, shiny, not greasy, and smelling delicious." –Vicglamar Torres, Senior Editor

Moroccanoil Original Treatment ($40__)__: "I do the Brazilian Blowout AND ombre dye my dark brown hair blonde, but with Moroccanoil, none of the wear and tear I put my hair through matters. My hair LOVES this stuff, and if you have thick hair, yours will too! It soaks in without any greasy feel and makes my hair look freshly cut. It's the BEST before a blowdry and it's a really easy, all-in-one hair product that reduces frizz, makes hair incredibly smooth and shiny and smells GREAT!" –Mariela Rosario, Managing Editor

Kérastase Fiber Architecte Complexe Ciment Cylane Hair Serum ($42): "Ever since I discovered this Kérastase serum, it has become of my favorite hair products. Even though my hair is not dry or brittle, in between cuts I do have to deal with split ends. The dual serum promised to work wonders to repair them and it has!" –Johanna Torres, Editor-In-Chief
