The Mascara That Makes Your Eyelash Curler Redundant
Ditch your lash curler and pick up CoverGirl Bombshell Curvaceous by LashBlast Mascara, $11.99, instead. The double-sided wand packs a one-two punch for bold, curled lashes that make your eyes look wide awake. Use the curved side to lift and separate, then seal it in with the pitch-black topcoat.

Gel Polish Sans the Salon
Getting the long-lasting results of a gel polish doesn't require tons of time -- or a UV light -- with Sally Hansen's Miracle Gel Polish, $9.99. Paint your nails with the color of your choice (no base coat required), and then seal it in with the included topcoat. It dries in minutes to a glossy, chip-resistant finish that lasts for nearly two weeks.
