Ecotools Kabuki Brush ($8)
All of these products are affordable—but they sure don't look cheap. (And they don't feel or smell cheap, either.) Best of all, their high-end formulas mean that none of them scrimp on results.
The synthetic bristles retract into a recycled aluminum case, which won't pop open in your handbag and stays put when you set it on the counter.
Roc Completelift Night Cream ($23)
This cream contains generous doses of zinc, copper, and magnesium, antioxidant minerals that keep skin smooth and soft.
Sonia Kashuk Glamified Brush Set ($22 for seven brushes)
This gilt-handled brush is astoundingly soft—and versatile. Use the natural bristles to apply a sheer layer of bronzer, blush, or loose powder.
American Beauty Super Plush Powder Foundation ($16.50)
This foundation is just right: It offers more coverage than a pressed powder, less than a heavy liquid. And the formula is oil-free but never leaves skin dry or flaky.
True Color Eyeshadow ($4)
Makeup artist Jillian Dempsey knows how to keep Hollywood actresses looking picture-perfect. As Avon's color director, she creates gorgeous, wearable shades, like this True Color Eyeshadow in Chestnut.
Vickery & Clarke Healing Hand Cream ($8)
Packed with shea butter, this is one of the richest moisturizers around. It's part of a new CVS line that's free of parabens, petrolatum, and sodium lauryl sulfates.
Flirt! Peek-a-Blush Sheer Powder Cheek Color ($12)
The perfect silky sheer blush. The mauvey Dapple Apple you see here is one of 17 shades that range from the softest shimmery pink to the juiciest plum.
Neutrogena Moistureshine Soothing Lipsheer SPF 20 ($9)
Are you always searching for a hydrating, nonsticky lipstick with just a touch of color? Try Neutrogena's in Plum Kiss.
Skin Effects Preventing Effects Lightweight Moisturizing Soufflé with SPF 30+ ($16)
This lotion feels as luxurious as the expensive stuff, protects skin with antioxidant green tea and a broad-spectrum sunscreen, and contains absolutely no fragrance—a big plus for sensitive types.
