Weird, New Things That Make You Look Better With Almost No Effort

If you’re not opposed to trying some outside-the-box ideas in the name of beauty, this face mask is a must-have. Inspired by the salmon sperm facial that celebrities like Jennifer Aniston have tried, this at-home mask uses salmon PDRN (a DNA extracted from salmon sperm) to enhance skin elasticity and clarity for skin that’s firmer and brighter. The jelly mask, which starts out pink and gradually becomes transparent after three to four hours, also includes more traditional skin-plumping and brightening ingredients like hydrolyzed collagen, peptides, and niacinamide.

For those who swear by at-home dermaplaning for smoother skin, this face spray was created to highlight every last hair so you don’t miss a single strand while shaving.

Hot styling tools may be a part of your weekly hair routine, but they’re also contributing to cumulative damage in the form of dryness and breakage. Luckily, if it’s loose curls or beachy waves that you’re after, you can cut back on the damage while still achieving your style, thanks to this velvet headband. The 70-inch rod is great for long hair, allowing you to wrap every piece around the cotton-filled band and secure it in place with the included hair elastics. As you sleep, the rod helps to set your hair in waves, and it even comes with a bonus storage bag, yoga headband, and spray bottle.

Baby hairs are totally normal, but they’re also a total nuisance when you’re attempting a slicked-back hairstyle. This genius little tube looks like a mascara, but instead, it holds a frizz-smoothing hair cream that gets a further assist from the built-in comb.

The formula is cruelty-free and vegan, and it's scented with the brand’s signature citrus fragrance.

A beer yeast shampoo doesn’t exactly sound like a beauty essential. But the active ingredient is rich in proteins and B vitamins that not only help to improve the health of your hair, but also enhance volume. Formulated into a more travel- and eco-friendly bar that doesn’t use any plastic, the shampoo also contains ingredients like salicylic acid, glycerin, and olive fruit oil to remove buildup without stripping the hair of moisture. The shampoo bar is scented with mandarin orange peel, and even though it’s free from sulfates, it still promises to deliver a rich lather once you mix it with water.

And if you want to experiment with color, the serum-infused mascara is available in blue, green, and plum shades, too.
