6 Products that Make Monday A.M. More Manageable
Photo: Jason Lloyd Evans1/7It doesn’t matter how awesome your weekend is — as soon as Sunday night rolls around, you can’t help but feel the creeping sense of dread that signals Monday’s on its way. We totally get it — which is why we don’t blame you one bit for hitting snooze too many times the next morning. (After all, that’s what sweatpants and topknots are for.) Luckily, there are miracle potions that work overnight to leave you with a glowing complexion, super-soft skin and silkier strands (as well as others that cut your morning routine in half) — so you can wake up like Beyoncé, even on a Monday morning.
2/7REN Wake Wonderful Night-Time Facial
Imagine the glow-y skin goodness brought on by a visit to the facialist, amplified — that’s how luminous REN’s powerful overnight treatment leaves skin. The formula works in three phases to exfoliate dead skin cells, rejuvenate tired ones, and lastly, lock in moisture. All while you dream.
Pixelate Imaging3/7St. Tropez In Shower Gradual Tan
Even the best express self-tanners require you to wait before rinsing off — until now. With St. Tropez’s brilliant new formula, you can apply in the shower, shampoo, then wash off and emerge with a bronze glow that gets deeper each time you suds up. Kiss winter pallor goodbye.
4/7Estée Lauder New Dimension Shape + Fill Expert Serum
Revamp your contouring routine (or better yet, chop it in two) with a face-sculpting serum that leaves cheeks visibly lifted, and skin infinitely more radiant. You won’t have to suck in to find your cheekbones ever again.
5/7Jergens Wet Skin Moisturizer
No need to towel off before slathering on a creamy lotion post-shower with Jergen’s breakthrough new formula. Apply before you dry—massage into wet skin for a super quick moisture surge.
MATTHEW GUILLORY 20146/7Living Proof Perfect Hair Day Night Cap Overnight Perfector
For seriously silky hair, let Living Proof’s Night Cap work its magic overnight. This mask seals the hair cuticle completely and boosts shine in less than eight hours, but lasts all week long—and you don’t even have to wash it out in the a.m.
7/7Illamasqua Gel Sculpt
Another genius way to fake your contour know-how, Illamasqua’s Gel Sculpt takes the guesswork out of getting sculpted cheekbones in one easy step (or should we say swipe?). The warm cocoa-colored formula glides on easily, and isn’t too shimmery or too opaque, so you won’t have to worry about looking like a pretty clown.
