Funner Handshake Exfoliating Hand Wash, $38
With hair as short as mine, hair care is a luxury rather than a necessity. But when I saw Funner, the new M/M Paris-designed brand started by industry scion Jonah Kaner (son of beauty royalty Sonia Kashuk and Daniel Kaner), I needed these products in my bathroom. So imagine my joy when I discovered the range includes Exfoliating Hand Wash, whose formula is equal parts cleansing and moisturizing with a scent that brings a smile to my face.

Yves Saint Laurent Beauté Skin Affair Soft Glow Cushion Foundation, $49
YSL Beauté’s take on its bestselling cushion foundation in Asia, tweaked for a Western consumer with a broader shade range and buildable coverage, has quickly become my go-to complexion product. As someone who doesn’t like a heavy foundation, this allows my skin to still look like my skin but with enough coverage to hide my pores. It gives my complexion a healthy glow, rather than looking overly made up.

E.l.f. x Bubble Drop N’ Dunk Bronzing Drops + Slam Dunk Hydrating Moisturizer, $18
Thanks to the E.l.f. Cosmetics x Bubble Drop N’ Dunk, I no longer have to make my own morning skin care medley on the back of my hand. A first-of-its-kind innovation, the product has a dual-chamber pump that dispenses Bubble’s Slam Dunk Hydrating Moisturizer on one side and E.l.f.’s Bronzing Drops on the other, with a dish for them to meet in the middle. The result is a lightweight, hydrating formula that can be mixed on the move, minus the mess.

Ffern Lunasa Eau de Parfum, $280
I’m intrigued most times that a Ffern delivery makes its way to my desk, but even more so with Lunasa. I don’t usually gravitate toward green scents, but this perfume blends jasmine, kumquat, hay and wood notes in a way that delights even my gourmand-leaning heart of hearts. Lunasa is the second addition to Ffern’s Permanent Collection as the brand moves away from its longtime limited-batch model. For me, it’s the quintessential summer send-off scent.
