CLEANSER, OPTION TWO If you’re partial to wipes, Consonant Come Clean 100% Natural Bamboo Cleansing Cloths are super-gentle (they’re loaded with grape-seed extract, ginseng and camomile) and large enough that you can remove eye makeup without smudging foundation into your cornea.

WEB BONUS: It goes without saying (and it’s not technically a beauty product), but don’t forget to hydrate.

The “I forgot my water bottle at home!” excuse isn’t going to fly anymore. – Maryjane Peters, editorial assistant
