“It’s rare to find a palo santo–scented product that smells exactly like the real thing, but this oil from Noto comes closer than pretty much anything I’ve ever tried,” says deals writer Martha Tuber. Apply it wherever you’d put perfume, or rub it all over your hands and run it through your hair. “Because it’s oil, the scent is relatively subtle, so it’s hard to go overboard no matter how much you use,” she explains.

If the humidity is wreaking havoc on your hair, try this frizz-fighting hair mist. Viera-Newton says she uses it “on both wet and dry hair as a moisture boost in the morning — it sinks deep into my hair, immediately gets rid of any stubborn frizz, and never makes my hair feel sticky or heavy.” The spray also can act as a detangler.

Moroccanoil’s curl-defining cream allows you to bypass stacking a bunch of different curly-hair products. “It’s a leave-in product to make hair less frizzy,” says salon owner Mirjam Bayoumi. “You put it on after the shower, and it’s basically wash-and-go — you can twist your curls a little bit, but that’s it.”

New York–based hair and makeup artist Shaina Erlich says this primer is one of her favorites for smoothing out rough texture and large pores. “You have to warm it up and press it into clean skin, especially in areas where you have enlarged pores or texture.” She adds that it’s one of her favorites for on-location shoots, because it prevents any makeup slippage.

This is the glowier version of one of our favorite foundations for dry skin. “It blurs my pores and breakouts very nicely since it’s medium-to-full coverage, but it never feels dry or cakey and still has a skinlike texture,” writer Brenley Goertzen says.
