Skin Food Original Ultra-Rich Cream - Small

The original Weleda Skin Food is a makeup artist kit staple that’s definitely worth a spot in your collection. “Every makeup artist uses this because it provides like the perfect canvas for makeup and makes your skin super smooth and glowy,” says Xue.

Universal C Skin Refiner 50ml

You may recognize this gel-cream vitamin C formula from its viral moment on social media, and Xue can vouch that it’s worthy of the hype. “A lot of vitamin C serums can be sticky, there are ones that smell bad, or they oxidize — but this one is super, super stable. It has almost a light moose consistency, and it has a very potent dose of vitamin C for brightening dark spots.”

Clean It Zero Cleansing Balm Nourishing

If you aren’t already double-cleansing at night time, then let this affordable and cult-favorite cleansing balm compel you to start. “Double cleansing is a thing in Korea where you use a balm to melt off your makeup first, and then you use a gel cleanser afterwards,” Xue explains. “This cleansing balm is one of the most popular ones in Korea. It's just melts off all your makeup like magic.”

Good Genes Lactic Acid Treatment 50ml

Good Genes Lactic Acid Treatment 50ml

According to Xue, this Sunday Riley Good Genes Lactic Acid Treatment is a cult classic for a reason. “It's like a facial in a bottle. You could literally use it at night and wake up with smoother, clearer skin.” And while it’s more of an investment product, Xue promises that it’ll last a long time on your shelf.

Intro Gua Sha Jade Face Massager

While the internet is full of Gua Sha recommendations, Xue loves this one from Lanshin for several reasons: “This one is actually founded by a Chinese American woman who is an acupuncturist. She created this stone in a specific shape to actually be in line with the way Chinese medicine uses Gua Sha.” Use this tool to sculpt your face, and decrease muscle tension in your neck and jaw.

Dr Barbara Sturm Beauty Body Brush Soft

“Dry brushing is my new favorite thing and it’s proven to help with lymphatic drainage, and this brush is the perfect amount of firm, but also soft,” says Xue. Simply use it across all of your limbs before the shower, and it helps with detoxification and lymphatic drainage — plus it’ll leave your skin feeling super soft.

Calming Serum 30ml

Calming Serum 30ml

Take it straight from our beauty expert: You’re going to want to try this serum. “This is my favorite serum because it really instantly calms on impact. So if your skin is sensitive or sensitized, if you're using retinol for the first time, if you are using acid for the first time, then this serum is just so good at bringing your skin back to calmness. I see it as like a hug for your skin. And yes, it’s expensive, but it lasts a really long time and it's such a pleasure to use.”

BYO BLUSH

“A lot of color-changing blushes are very gimmicky, but this one actually looks beautiful on all skin tones. It gives you a dewy, sheer pink tint and it literally changes color depending on your pH. I personally use it all the time.”

Glossy Lip Stain

Another social media favorite product, this e.l.f. Cosmetics Glossy Lip Stain is highly pigmented and formulated to last. “I personally love this product,” says Xue. “It gives so much pigment and it looks glossy, but after a few minutes, if you kiss the back of your hand, nothing comes off. I think it’s magical — and it’s only $6!”

Liquid Glitter Eyeshadow

“I think these are so fun and you really don't need any sort of skill to apply them, but it makes it look like you got your makeup professionally done. You literally just apply it directly to your eye and blend it with your finger, and it looks like you like spent 10 minutes doing a holographic smokey eye.”

Glass Glow Face & Body Gloss – Crystal Clear

If your fall beauty goals include achieving coveted “glazed donut” skin, then start with this must-have face and body gloss. “You only need the tiniest, tiniest drop and it makes your skin look luminescent and angelic — and again, it’s a makeup artist staple. Every makeup artist has this in their kit.”

Mascara Volume – Astronomical

“Every beauty editor is obsessed with this mascara,” says Xue. “It gives volume, but it's not clumpy and it doesn't weigh your lashes down. It's like a beauty insider secret that people love this product.”

Crown Scalp Scrub 5.5oz

Crown Scalp Scrub 5.5oz

The beauty world is obsessed with scalp treatments, and this Crown Scalp Scrub from R+Co is a worthy contender. “Your scalp can have a lot of buildup if you use a lot of products or dry shampoo, and this non-drying scalp scrub is super refreshing.”

Restorative Treatment Mask 150ml

If you’re looking for a mask to get your hair photo-ready for fall, then look no further than this editor-favorite from Virtue Labs. “This is a really high-tech hair mask that actually helps repair your hair,” says Xue. “If you ever dye your hair or lighten it, it can be weakened. And this mask basically brings it to its softest state.”

Wet & Dry Styling Brush - Medium

Beauty editor tip: “Your hair is weakest when it's wet, and people don't know that you shouldn't be using your normal hairbrush after a wash, because it can lead to a lot of breakage,” says Xue. With its super soft bristles, this wet and dry styling brush is a small investment in achieving your long-term hair goals.

Weightless Conditioning Water, 5.07 oz

Sometimes the best beauty essentials are the simplest, like this editor-approved conditioning water by Philip B. “This is a great product for refreshing your hair when you don't want to shampoo it. It makes your hair smell good, and makes it super soft again without weighing it down.”

Silver Smart Rope

Silver Smart Rope

It’s no secret that jumping rope is an easy way to add some cardio to your on-the-go lifestyle, but what is lesser-known is how much a weighted rope can upgrade your routine. “This one is great and perfectly weighted, and if you're traveling and don't have a gym, it's an easy thing to pack in your bag.”

Black Vibrating Foam Roller

Black Vibrating Foam Roller

Anyone who’s ever tried a foam roller knows all about their uses for massaging sore muscles and reducing inflammation, and this upgraded version features four vibration speeds to help you get even more out of the practice and even “feels like you’re giving yourself a massage,” according to Xue.

Pink Theragun mini Hand-Held Massager

Pink Theragun mini Hand-Held Massager

Perfect for travel or to fit into smaller-than-usual gym bags, this mini Theragun is an editor-favorite for an obvious reason: “First of all, it's pink. It's cute,” says Xue. “But I love the mini size of this. It’s great to help loosen up your muscles and help with recovery after a workout.”

Full Moon Dust Sachets

A fan of the brand since the very beginning, Xue loves these adaptogenic herbal supplements for their stress-fighting properties. “I love that you can mix it with anything, and it has ingredients that help you focus.”

Maybe it’s just me, but my workouts are way more enjoyable when accompanied by the right gear, and this matching CACT.US CORP set from Nike easily does the trick. Throw on this half-zip fleece sweater and coordinating brown cargo bike short, and hit your next hike (or brunch — up to you) with confidence.
