I love the feeling of soft, freshly-washed and dried hair -- that is, until it falls flat. IGK Down & Out Dirty Spray, $29, is the ultimate solution for that problem. More than a texture spray, it's a dirty spray, and it gives your hair just the right amount of grit without being sticky or heavy. And the finish is shiny instead of matte like so many other sprays.

I've tested just about every matte liquid lipstick on the market. But until now, I couldn't actually wear any of them for more than an hour -- they were just too drying. Huda Beauty Liquid Matte Lipstick, $20, is by far the most comfortable formula I've tried. The finish is completely matte, but it feels soft and hydrating. And of course the colors are killer.

I'm one of those people who gets overheated very easily; consequently, August is my least favorite month of the year. The problem is at its worst when I come back from a run in the morning: My skin is so red and irritated, it takes hours for it to calm down. However, if I slap on the Skinceuticals Phyto Corrective Masque, $55, my face goes back to normal in a matter of minutes. It contains calming cucumber, thyme and olive, plus a special dipeptide that reduces heat sensitivity. It's a delightfully cold gel, and you can rinse it off or leave it on. I even like to wear it under makeup.

After I've calmed my flushed skin, I want to bring the life back into my cheeks, and Marc Jacobs Air Blush, $42, is the best product to do exactly that. Inspired by the flush you experience when you're dancing for hours, this blush looks like real skin. It's made with a special Japanese air powder pigment that floats on the surface of the cheek, and it feels like nothing. Each compact contains two colors so you can contour and blend with abandon.
