Editor Quote: "I've used it three times since I initially purchased a pack of four. Once when my skin was fairly normal, once when I was experiencing some annoying breakouts, and once when I had a massive sunburn on my face. I'm genuinely not sure how, but the mask seemed to help with all of my skin issues." — Renee Rodriguez, staff writer and social producer

Laneige Lip Sleeping Mask ($24)

Editor Quote: "As for what it looks and feels like: it's a lusciously thick formula with a silky-soft texture and a glossy finish. I agree with our former content director, Macy Cate Williams, who reviewed the original Berry formula and said: 'This lip mask isn't sticky or uncomfortable — it glides on smoothly and feels very soothing on my lips.'" — MP

Editor Quote: "Beyond its aesthetics, I fell in love with the dual-function straw. What makes it so great is that you can either sip through the built-in straw (ideal for avoiding spills when it's full) or swig from the spout opening when you need a lot more water at once." — MP

Opening the claw and fastening it onto the chain extender was smooth and frustration-free." - MP

JW PEI Women's Joy Shoulder Bag ($76, originally $89)
