Anastasia Beverly Hills sales don't happen every day, so when they do, we suggest taking advantage. Right now, you can snag the brand's Modern Renaissance and Norvina pink- and purple-hued palettes for 25 percent off. Each comes with 14 creamy powder shadows in a variety of matte and shimmery finishes. "This was my first ABH palette and I'm one happy customer," one reviewer wrote. "Not only is the pigment true, but the colors were so lush. This palette does not require numerous swipes of the makeup brush to get the color to look how it looks in the palette. One swipe and the color is true."

Even if you don't own this styling tool, you're likely familiar with its virality. Boasting over 267,000 five-star ratings, the lightweight brush beautifully dries, volumizes, and blows out hair of all types with ease. "Y'all, I can't make this up," one happy customer wrote. "I despise blow drying and styling my hair because it's so long and freakishly thick. It takes me over an hour with a normal hairdryer…[But] 20 minutes [is] how long it takes me to do my hair from wet out of the shower to straight and sleek locks using this thing. Best purchase I've made this year!"

"After using this two times a week for a month, the improvement is so significant that even my mother… remarked on how much better my skin looks.
