These certified organic lip/cheek color pots can be layered for buildable color and are made of good-for-you ingredients (such as coconut and sunflower seed oils) so you're nourishing your lips with every wear. No nonsynthetic color product is going to last all day, but RMS gets the closest." Denno RMS Beauty Lip2Cheek ($36) Pai Skincare Avocado and Jojoba Hydrating Day Cream 
"I was introduced to this day cream several years ago by Jessica Richards, the owner of my favorite Brooklyn-based beauty destination, Shen Beauty.

Replenish Oil Mist $24 from Ulta "This mist is a 100 percent natural custom oil blend of olive, sunflower, and borage oils. It is unlike other sprays with silicones because instead of creating a barrier, it actually nourishes to help you achieve softer, smoother, shinier hair. You can use it on dry hair before shampooing, add it to conditioner, or use it when dry styling. It is extremely versatile and you can never really do too much." George Papanikolas, hairstylist Matrix Biolage R.A.W. Replenish Oil Mist ($24) R.L. Linden Balmba Rosa Lip Balm "This is the best lip balm on the market.

I use it as a treatment before I apply moisturizer and it has the most glowing and healthy effect on the skin." Ciucci Tata Harper Beautifying Face Oil ($48) Rahua Shampoo "I love this gentle shampoo for a 100 percent natural way to cleanse the scalp and remove build-up all without drying my ends.

Patricia Nigro, expert colorist at Butterfly Studio Salon Rahua Shampoo ($34) True Botanicals Resurfacing Moisture Mask "If you don't go to the facialist for regular microdermabrasion or peels, then removing dead skin cells off at home is a must. This gentle, fruit-acid-based mask really works to loosen that dull top layer, which allows your active products to really get into the deeper layers and provide hydration and cell renewal. It's super easy to use just slather it on once a week and remove with a wet washcloth after 10-20 minutes. You'll see an immediate difference!"
