MAC Warm Neutral Eye Shadow Palette
If you're looking for a set of everyday eye shadows, the MAC Warm Neutral Palette ($65) is a useful choice. MAC is known for its highly pigmented colors, so these shades should show up really well. They're also super blendable, so you can make them as light or as dark as you want.

Soap & Glory The Righteous Butter ($15) is a thick, rich cream that does an exceptional job at adding deep moisture back into severely dry skin, making it a particularly good buy for the Winter. Feel free to skip perfume after slicking this on — the juicy bergamot, peach, and rose notes will make you smell good enough to eat.
