Own October With These Life-Changing New Beauty Buys

I was blessed with pretty good skin, but when the leaves change, my complexion does, too. I look tired and sallow (not just a side effect of late-night Netflix bingeing!), and lots of little flakes start cropping up and ruining my foundation application. But one application of Boscia's Bright White Mask ($38) has my skin looking completely luminous. The formula's Stay C-50, a form of vitamin C, repairs signs of skin damage caused by UV — which may not totally get me off the hook for forgetting SPF on occasion this Summer but definitely helps. And, since you peel it off, all those flakes go with it, leaving me perfectly smooth.
