These Are My Favorite Low-Fuss Beauty Products When I Just Can’t
I'll never claim to be the lowest maintenance girl on the planet, but I also don't really have time for a super extensive beauty routine. Luckily, a time-consuming one doesn't mean it's any more effective than a quick and easy one. That said, sometimes I barely even want to do a quick beauty routine, and especially can't be bothered with layering multiple products. But I've discovered that if you have the right products, you can get away with caring for your skin and hair and doing your makeup with very minimal effort.
When it comes to beauty product buzzwords, "low-fuss" is one of my favorite ones. While I'm a self-professed beauty product junkie, I'm no dermatologist, so the more user-friendly the better. I don't think I'm alone in that, as so many great beauty brands are constantly busy creating products that cater to shoppers' low-fuss desires. Scroll to shop some of my favorites, because no time like the present to simplify your beauty routine.
I'm not a fan of layering multiple products under my makeup, especially in the summer, so this sunscreen is a godsend. Since it's packed with antioxidants and lightweight moisturizers, it's all you really need on a typical day.A quick hit of stick highlighter to the high points of my face is the final step in my makeup routine, and it goes a long way. This one is perfect—creamy, light, and blendable.If you really want to streamline your beauty routine, this serum is worth every penny. I started using it about a month ago and have really seen a difference in my skin. It's brighter, plumper, and smoother. The best part is that it doesn't need to be paired with any other products—it does it all.I'm usually in a rush when I do my makeup, so the fewer products I have to dig around for, the better. When I found out Charlotte Tilbury had created a new multi-use cream I was eager to try it, and it doesn't disappoint. It's super sheer and buildable and gives the prettiest dewy glow.A spray hair mask?! Genius. This leaves dry, damaged hair looking healthy, shiny, and bouncy, even if it's been months since your last cut.I've always found retinol to be too harsh for my skin, until I tried Retinol Reform. It's powerful but it doesn't ravage my skin. I use it several nights a week on its own and always see a difference when I do.A Vitamin C serum is the only skincare product I use in the morning, aside from sunscreen. This fades dark spots and improves texture in both the short term and the long term.On days when I just can't be bothered with makeup, I've been reaching for this glowy serum. It blurs imperfections, moisturizes, and gives the prettiest glow. The hype is justified.This is the latest addition to my growing collection of Versed products, and it ranks high. I use it after cleansing and before applying moisturizer. It doesn't sting (and I have sensitive skin) and makes me look like I'm not as sleep-deprived as I am.I have long, thick hair, so air drying it without applying something to tame it is a no-go. Luckily, I discovered Ouai Air Dry Foam, and letting my hair air dry is something I can get away with now. I love that these two-step packets take the guesswork out of exfoliating. They're one of my favorite skincare products to pack when I travel, for obvious reasons.I don't style my hair, so keeping it smooth and healthy at the very least is imperative. This is the holy grail product if you want healthy-looking hair sans effort.Tinted lip balms are my favorite lip product, especially since wearing face masks is a daily occurrence now. I'm a big fan of Nars products and this one lives up to their gold standard. It leaves a pretty wash of color and is moisturizing but never sticky.When I really can't be bothered with my bedtime skincare routine, this is the moisturizer I've been using for years. It's lightweight and layers beautifully with peels and other exfoliants.I love Kosas' Tinted Face Oil because it provides a little more coverage than your typical tinted moisturizer and lasts all day. It's the perfect product when I just can't with heavy foundation but still want moderate coverage.I rarely get facials, but thanks to Good Genes, I don't find that I need them all that often. I used quite a few, brightening, glow-inducing products, but this may be the most powerful. I use it once a week and my skin looks prettier for several days after.
If you're into fashion and an avid TikTok scroller, you've probably come across the viral and somewhat controversial Coperni one-leg jeans . People who got their hands on them are asking followers how they should style them - and even whether or not they should keep them. Those who are still on a waitlist or are simply curious about the trend are going so far as to DIY the jeans by taking a scissor to one leg of an old pair. I, on the other hand, dared to step into the Romeo Hunte Black One Leg Pant ($232, originally $725), an alternative take on the same silhouette that's even more eye-catching (which, how is that possible?). These jeans were, without a doubt, one of the most polarizing looks I've ever worn - and I've tried some pretty divisive clothing, from Skims butt-enhancing shapewear to the brand's famous push-up nipple bra , and many a sheer naked dress . After wearing the jeans around town to run errands and obviously attracting some attention (st...

Never have we been more envious of an inanimate object than when Pedro Pascal stepped out in a sparkly cardigan this week. As soon as we saw him walking the streets of London wearing the glittery knit, we longed to swap places with it - to be enrobing the heartthrob, catching the attention of random passersby, sparking internet discourse, and ultimately taking responsibility for his style breakout. Pascal has been serving look after look while promoting " The Last of Us " season one and "The Mandalorian" season three this year, working with stylists Julie Ragolia and Fabio Immediato . His latest came on Feb. 23 when he arrived to a radio interview wearing the shiny cardigan in question: a long button-down sweater made of silver foil yarn and created by menswear label 4SDesigns. He layered it over a sheer brown tank top and finished the look with black pants, leather boots, and his usual chunky-framed glasses. Just one day prior, the actor stopped by a photo call...
