A Do-It-All Spray
Kevin Murphy Doo.Over, $27.50, is a shampoo-hairspray hybrid that's an absolute lifesaver on days when hair is on the brink of needing a wash, but your arms are too sore from your morning workout to possibly do the whole shampoo/conditioner thing (or, let's be real, you just don't feel like getting your hair wet).

It has a dry finish that gives your hair lift, volume, texture and hold, and contains tapioca starch to soak up excess oil. A fragrant blend of Virginia cedar wood and patchouli will have your co-workers asking what perfume you're wearing.

A Concealer That Doubles As an Anti-Ager
Consider SkinCeuticals Physical Eye UV Defense SPF 50, $30, your new BFF for rushed mornings. It has a slight tint that diminishes the look of dark circles and uneven skin tone, while hydrating skin with ceramides. Plus, it keeps wrinkles and fine lines at bay with a blend of titanium dioxide and zinc oxide to protect the delicate eye area from UVA and UVB rays, which can increase signs of aging. It was specially formulated for use around the eye, so you don't have to worry about stinging or irritation. Swipe a bit over your eyelid as well to even out any discoloration and make your peepers look brighter.

A Lip Stain That Gives Your Cheeks a Healthy Glow
It's rare (like, unicorn status) to come across a lip and cheek hybrid that works equally well both ways. Enter: Lilah B. Divine Duo, $46. This cute, pebble-shaped product is easily stashed in your purse for on-the-go application that takes mere seconds. The color gives cheeks a healthy, fresh flush and stains lips with a lasting pigment. You'll look alive, even if you need eight more cups of coffee to feel it.

It's Monday morning. You have to go to work. Basically, you DGAF about anything other than coffee. Colorescience Tint du Soleil SPF 30 UV Protective Foundation, $54, is your new secret weapon. With just one step, you get your sun protection and coverage, plus a ton of skin benefits. But this is so much more than your basic tinted moisturizer.

A Bronzer That Gives You a Lasting Tan
Why use plain old bronzer when you could use a bronzer that's also a self-tanner? Vita Liberata Trystal Self Tanning Bronzing Minerals, $45, gives you an instant sunkissed look that deepens into a tan that lasts for up to five days. The product is superpigmented, so a little goes a long way. Apply it where the sun naturally hits your face to fake a just-back-from-vacay glow, or use it in the hollows of your cheeks, along your nose and by your temples to create a contoured face that looks natural and doesn't require fade for days.
