Ideal: Complexion revivers

Origins VitaZing SPF 15 Energy-Boosting Moisturizer With Mangosteen

"When I rub this

lotion ($35, origins.com) in, it develops a sheer tint that evens out my complexion. Plus, botanicals like ginseng leave my skin looking—and feeling!—refreshed."

Almay Smart Shade Makeup

"I use this

foundation ($14, drugstores) when my mornings are rushed. It self-adjusts to match my skin and covers dark circles—but it doesn't feel like makeup makeup."

Tarte LipSurgence Natural Matte Lip Stain in Lively

"Makeup artists say bright-pink lips wake up your entire face, and this sort-of-sheer fuchsia

pencil ($24, sephora.com) manages to do it without looking garish."

Sonia Kashuk Velvety Shine Lip Crayon in Hot Pink

"I swiped on this creamy

lip crayon ($8, target.com) one morning, and two co-workers commented on how well-rested I looked. Who knew a pop of pink had such transformative powers?"

Estée Lauder Signature 5-Tone Shimmer Powder for Eyes, Cheeks, Face

"Five face-awakening shades on one

compact ($36, esteelauder.com)! I apply the peach to my lids, the light pink below my brows, swirl the two medium pinks on my cheeks, and rub the darkest pink over my lips."

Rimmel London Lasting Finish Blendable Powder Blush

"It's easy to build color with this

blush-and-highlighter trio ($5, mass retailers). Apply each shade separately—depending on how much glow you need—or mix all three together for a natural-looking flush."
