It’s not every day that a beauty product goes viral and it’s actually affordable. But a drugstore find that performs as well as its luxury alternatives? Count me in. When I saw everyone on my TikTok For You Page trying the Maybelline Sky High Mascara, I knew I had to do a review. Even better, folks of all ages have been testing and loving the new formula for ultra-long and clump-free lashes.

Maybelline’s Lash Sensational Sky High Mascara is a best-seller and has almost a five-star rating on Amazon, where it’s currently on sale for 23 percent off. It literally costs less than $10 right now, so you’ll want to add to cart quickly.

Many are saying it’s similar to the fan-favorite Benefit BADgal BANG! Volumizing Mascara and the Hourglass Unlocked Instant Extensions Mascara, both of which are around $30.

I think most of what these three mascaras have in common is the flexible mascara wand that reaches every little lash. Maybelline’s mascara comes in both washable and waterproof formulas and is infused with bamboo extract and fibers for long, full lashes that aren’t weighed down.

My own lashes are dark but not especially long.

I added a few layers and my lashes got super long quickly without any clumps. I usually like bigger wands so I was pleasantly surprised at how well this bendy one really coated every lash.

The outcome is more lengthening than thickening, which works really well for me. The biggest test though was seeing how well the formula held up throughout the day. My main complaint with drugstore mascaras is how they tend to flake and fade and I have to reapply them. But not this one. It held up even when I forgot I was wearing makeup and rubbed my eyes.

Maybelline’s Sky High Mascara is absolutely worth checking out, especially at less than $10. Grab the formula that Amazon shoppers say brings false lash extension level effects.

Ditch Your Gym Membership For These More Affordable At-Home Workouts—Here’s How to Become a Member For Less

There are some winter days when it simply feels impossible to do anything else but be in blankets for the foreseeable future. Much to our dismay, staying in bed (as much as we might want it to be) doesn’t usually vibe with reality. For those of us who have gym visits synced into our routine, the additional stop in between going to the office and heading home feels even more pronounced. In times like these, I like to turn to creative methods such as YouTube videos or weightlifting so I can get my body moving, all in the comfort of my own home. Obé Fitness’ membership program offers around 20 live classes every day and has a library of over 8,000 workout videos, making my quest for brainstorming ways to stay inside that much simpler.

And lucky for you (and me), Obé Fitness has a limited-time promo that gives you a membership for $99 a year—newcomers only. This seems like a no-brainer considering the price of gym memberships these days. To take advantage of this promo, remember to enter code MOVEMENT99 at checkout.

I’ve never been particularly excited about working out. Trust me, I’ve heard all the rave reviews that come with doing so regularly (i.e. less anxiety and all around happier mood), but I have yet to reach a point where I don’t feel like I’m forcing myself to go to the gym just for the sake of going to the gym. TBH, if I have to pretend the StairMaster is actually fun and doesn’t feel like near death at times, I will go mad. So, Obé Fitness’ mission is one that particularly resonates with me.

As it reads on their website, “We’re on a mission to turn daily movement into your favorite form of self-care. No intimidation, no punishing yourself, no boring routines on repeat. This is the place to let go, tune in, and feel confident in your beautiful body. To fall in love with moving—once and for all. Because when you move, good things happen.”

So, what exactly do the classes look like? Well, there’s something for everyone on the site. From 45-minute boxing and yoga sculpt to pilates to HIIT you’re able to switch things up as much as your heart desires.

At a price of $99 a year for newcomers, it’s definitely way more affordable than most gym memberships are nowadays. For those who have already previously subscribed to the program, you’ll find that the annual fee is only a bit more, sitting at $169.99. All in all, it’s an investment that allows you to have fun with the way you choose to move around.StyleCaster Shopping Newsletter Sign Up

Selena Gomez Says This Plumping Moisturizer Is So ‘Yummy’ & Shoppers Couldn’t Agree More

If I had to take skincare advice from anybody, Jennifer Aniston and Meghan Markle would be at the top of the list. These two seem to glow anytime, anywhere—and for good reason. They both swear by the same scientist-backed skincare line that consists of products made with traditional Japanese botanicals and clinical ingredients. And it seems like Selena Gomez is taking a page out of their books.

The award-winning actress, singer and beauty founder told Vogue UK that she relies on Tatcha moisturizers and cleansers to keep her skin as healthy as possible.

“I love Tatcha,” she said. “I think a lot of their moisturizers and face washes are gentle, but also extract all the nasty stuff.”

Now, specifically for her combination dry and oily skin, Gomez reaches for the brand’s coveted Dewy Skin Cream, a plumping moisturizer that’s known for its noticeable anti-aging benefits. This isn’t a new item in her skincare arsenal, though. In fact, she’s been using the product for years. She told Vogue back in 2020 that she uses the Dewy Skin Cream before putting on a full face of makeup, and added that “it’s so thick and yummy that you actually don’t have to use that much of it.”

There are a few major players in this moisturizer that, combined, make up a seriously beneficial skin treatment (specifically for mature skin): Japanese purple rice, Okinawa algae, hyaluronic acid and botanical extracts.

Rice? In a moisturizer? You bet, babe. Purple rice is packed to the brim with rich nutrients and antioxidants that can actually help your skin protect itself against pollution. This makes sense since the ingredient itself has to survive (and thrive) in harsh environments. Okinawa algae and hyaluronic acid combine together to create the moisturizing duo of your dreams. Rich in ceramides that build back your skin barrier, this combo is also an impressive plumping agent.

As for botanicals, ingredients like ginseng and thyme combine to moisturize your skin so deeply that they can actually help it retain and release moisture, creating a dewy glow. Thus, the name!

More than 3,000 shoppers have given this skin-saver an average 4.8-star rating, which, in the skincare world, is unheard of. They credit the nourishing product for diminishing the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines, while also combating dry and flaky skin at the same time.

“Before, my skin [was] extremely dehydrated, dull. Due to my working outside in the elements in all its glory, you can see my wrinkles from miles away,” wrote one five-star reviewer. “But as soon as I use this product, my skin is plump, hydrated without being greasy. It doesn’t clog my pores. Also, my skin is glowing AND my wrinkles aren’t nearly as visible!”

Starting at $22, you can shop the Dewy Skin Cream in three sizes ranging from a 10 mL travel one to a 75 mL bulk one. If, like Gomez, you want to improve your skincare routine and give your face some love, this is the item for you.

“When I was younger, I didn’t really take care of my skin,” Selena admitted in her Vogue video. Now, however, her outlook is all-encompassing.  “When you are taking care of your skin, you’re taking care of your mind and your body and your soul,” she said.

I don’t know about you, but my mind, body and soul could use a good Dewy Skin Cream.
