"After shampooing, dip fingertips into the mousse-like formula, apply, then rinse after three minutes. The result? Salon-silky hair. You can use it on dry ends every time you wash, or all over once a week."

Sampar Nocturnal Line-up Mask

($95; skin-one.com)

"Who can resist a face mask that hydrates overnight? Apply to clean skin before bed, and you'll wake up with smoother, softer skin (thanks to anti-aging walnut extract).

Just don't forget to rinse it off in the morning!
