Prime Day beauty deals are still going — shop these top picks from a beauty editor

Would Drew Barrymore steer you wrong? The actress/talk show host is just one of thousands of fans of Olay's tried-and-true classic products, which include this coveted sculpting cream. The key here is hydration: So much of face and neck aging — including crepey skin — is caused by a loss of moisture, and this thick, almost viscous cream begins to add it back upon first use. It's infused with concentrated, moisturizing ingredients like hyaluronic acid, amino-peptides and vitamin B3, all of which help plump skin and reduce the signs of wrinkling and sagging.

Women over 60 especially love this drugstore staple, proclaiming: "Great help for moisturizing, I will be 73 this month and, believe me, it really helps keep the wrinkles controlled by plumping up my skin."

This beloved snail mucin from CosRx is excellent for evening skin tone and making your face look softer and brighter overall. It's also won multiple awards, has over 54,000 five-star reviews on Amazon and has impressed most every beauty editor I know.

After using it the first time (here's my full review), my face was noticeably dewier. Other reviewers have boasted about its ability to soothe, hydrate, repair and improve dull skin — all of which helps wrinkles look less deep and crepey. 

This is the cream you want if this sounds like something you'd say: "I think tightening creams are BS, but I also want to believe they are true because I currently hate my neck." It's no-frills but gets the job done (the job being tighter jowls and a less reptilian neck). The formula is lightweight and on the thin side, but the product absorbs well and is gentle enough not to irritate sensitive skin. 

You'll need to use it consistently for about a month to see results, and it won't, of course, magically make you appear 25, but at $9 for this ample size, it's worth a go.

This bestselling cream contains three restorative ceramides, moisturizing hyaluronic acid and soothing niacinamide to combat dryness and reduce the appearance of dark circles and puffiness. We also love what it doesn't contain: The eye cream is fragrance-free, hypoallergenic and noncomedogenic, which means it won't clog pores.

If you're looking for a low-cost retinol eye cream to help with crow's feet and dark circles, this is for you. The wrinkle-smoothing lotion also reduces puffiness while remaining gentle enough for sensitive skin.

We're not alone in thinking it's among the best eye creams out there; it's garnered more than 19,000 five-star Amazon reviews. It's dermatologist-recommended too. Right now is a good time to this effective cream a try — it's 35% off.

While it's not exactly meant as a face cream, this ultra-rich moisturizer is used for that purpose by most every seasoned beauty expert I know. It's extremely hydrating, packed with nourishing plant-derived ingredients and is especially good as a nighttime treatment for faces, hands, feet, necks and even the décolleté.

Incredible deal alert! These gilded, Jessica Alba-approved eye masks incorporate hyaluronic acid, amino acids and sea moss to hydrate the delicate under-eye area, reducing dark circles and puffy bags and blurring fine lines as they go — and right now, with the on-site coupon, they're 40% off!

They're also paraben- and sulfate-free, vegan and gentle enough for most skin types. The luxe packaging makes them an excellent gift. 

I love Garnier's micellar water in general, but I especially love this iteration, which is perfect for aging faces. The no-rinse face cleanser works like a magnet to lift dirt and grime off your face while still conditioning and being extra gentle. 

This version also removes waterproof makeup without dragging or damaging your delicate under-eye skin (and, potentially, causing more wrinkles). Stock up while you can with this truly good deal on two ample 13.5-ounce bottles.  

I've been loving this extra-firming eye cream from Derma E, a truly quality brand that makes natural, vegan, cruelty-free products that won't cost you a week's pay. Made of skin-revitalizing ingredients like copper peptides and plant stem cells, it's clinically proven to improve elasticity, firmness and under-eye skin tone. I especially like it for my upper eyelids, where I've seen a noticeable difference in texture over just a few weeks.

More than 1,600 five-star reviewers also praise its lifting and tightening merits, calling it: "A miracle for your eyes — no time travel required!"

Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Kyle Richards swears by this hair elixir which, she explains, gives her mane "the look and feel of 3,000 more strands." 

The lightweight, non-sticky spray is made with keratin, collagen and biotin and — according to both Richards and numerous 5-star reviewers — effectively boosts hair volume along with strengthening fine and thin hair. "I have tried three other spray-in hair thickeners and this is the only one that has truly made my hair feel fuller," raved one five-star fan. "The price is also reasonable. I can't afford super pricey hair products that I use daily."

There's so much to love about this thickening, moisturizing, salon-quality shampoo and conditioner duo. For starters, it contains zero harsh chemicals. It's safe for all hair types (including color-treated) and it's not tested on animals. But the ingredients are the true stars here: Biotin, vitamin B and caffeine are all proven to nourish fine hair follicles and help stimulate growth. 

With more than 10,000 five-star reviews, this popular set is a steal at 30% off. "My hair has never felt so good," said one reviewer. "My hair is thin but this does not weigh it down. I also notice a lot less hair loss in my brush and styling tools."

This ultra-portable, pen-size shaver eradicates unwanted facial hair with the touch of a button. The clever dual-head design works in a flash on unwanted nose and ear hair (it's good for brow touch-ups and one-off chin whiskers too, though it's too narrow to tackle larger swaths like a full mustache). 

I actually keep one of these in my car to zap unruly black strands whenever they unexpectedly appear. Another cool feature? The TouchBeauty is waterproof, so you can use it in the shower while you're waiting for your conditioner to set.

This multiuse hair tool works like the Dyson Airwrap — only at a fraction of the cost. It comes with three brush heads and a blow-dryer attachment to suit all hair types, whether you want to smooth and straighten or add curl and waves. 

Now you'll be able to give yourself a professional-level blowout while saving 75% — which is the lowest price we've seen all year!

Did you know dermaplaning could change your whole facial-hair life? This precision tool is designed to painlessly groom away errant chin whiskers and unwanted facial fuzz from above the lip, between the brows and on the cheeks, and it's tiny enough to take wherever you go.

If you're tired of frequent shaving or the nonstop battle with stubble but don't want to invest hundreds in pricey hair removal treatments at a salon, XSoul's easy-to-use permanent follicle-banishing device just might be for you.  

"Smooth, painless, and permanent hair removal at home," raves one of thousands of five-star reviewers. "The treatments are surprisingly painless, even on sensitive areas like the bikini line and underarms. After a few uses, I started noticing a real reduction in hair growth, especially on my legs and arms. If you're looking for a convenient and cost-effective way to tackle unwanted hair, this IPL device is a solid investment."

You can try it for yourself for just $70 — 30% off! 

For a beauty editor, I'm ashamed to admit I'm not particularly skilled at grooming, and this is especially true when it comes to "doing" my hair. But this bestselling all-in-one hair dryer, styler, de-frizzer and volumizer has changed my life, making days when I want my coiff to appear polished about 1,000 times less stressful. 

It's super easy to use and the results are instant: It looks like you had professional, smoothing and volumizing a blowout within minutes. The device is so popular it's garnered over 35,000 five-star Amazon reviews! Scoop it up now while it's almost 30% off.

These No. 1 bestselling makeup blenders — now over 45% off — have been swirling around the beauty world for their bouncy, absorbent material and convenient teardrop shape (especially great for getting into corners, comparable to some of the more expensive blenders on the scene). They’re endorsed by over 75,000 customers (including me) and they’re hypoallergenic, latex-free and easy to clean. 

This gel formula serum and concealer goes on sheer and natural-looking, and the finish is satiny-smooth. It's buildable, so you can layer more on days when you need heavier coverage. It's also compact, comes in a dozen different shades and is — perhaps best of all — affordable.

This wallet-friendly makeup is among the most effective I've tried — I even named it one of the best concealers of 2024. 

When it comes to finding the best mascara, it takes a lot to impress me. In my years as a women's lifestyle editor, I've tried literally hundreds — at this point in my life (I'm 51), I like what I like and I rarely consider changing brands. But after testing this bestseller from Maybelline earlier this month, I've changed my tune. The formula is just beyond-the-pale amazing, the kind of thickening, lengthening, no-smudge product that would be good at any price, but for less than $10? You cannot beat it.

More than 77,000 reviewers rave about it on Amazon, all stating something along the lines of, "10/10 would recommend, I've ordered this six times now ... it's the best mascara I've ever used." Truly, it's that good. 

Despite what those '80s face wash ads told us, washing one's visage over the sink is not an ecstatic pleasure but more a splashy mess of water violence. As a lazy lady who hates outside-sink puddles, there are few things I love more than a facial towelette to gently remove the day's grime. However, as a person who cares about our burning planet, I always feel guilty about creating more waste.

But lo! These No. 1 bestselling Neutrogena Makeup Remover Wipes have solved my inner conflict. They are, as advertised, indeed ultra-soft and gentle while remaining highly effective at cleansing with zero water dripping down your arm. They are also plant-based, completely compostable and ophthalmologist-, dermatologist- and allergy-tested.

With this two-pack deal, you get 100 washes for less than $8 — more than three months of avoiding the tyranny of your sink.
