40 Beauty Products Our Editors Discovered in 2021 and Now Can't Live Without

"I first heard about the Milani Color Fetish Matte ($9) in 'Secret' on TikTok — where else? — and was hesitant of yet another Charlotte Tilbury Pillowtalk dupe. To my surprise, this lipstick was spot-on. Although the formulas slightly differ (Milani's is a bit creamier with a velvet finish), side by side, you can barely tell which is which. Would I love to have the real thing? Of course. Am I just as content with a $9 alt? No doubt." — Samantha Sasso, beauty editor, branded content
