Bonne Mine - Healthy Glow For Face & Cheeks Crème Colour Palette , $48
sephora.com
Liz: The colors are ultra sheer so they blend easily helping you create a custom look for your face. It also includes step-by-step guides on how to create different looks (ie sun-kissed)!
Jane: I love a palette that encompasses both face and cheek to eliminate items in my medicine cabinet and/or travel bag. These colors are neutral and sheer enough to work with any and all skin tones. It's pure genius.

Olay Regenerist Advanced Anti-Aging Eye Anti-Aging Roller , $15.51
amazon.com
Liz: All I know is that Jane is constantly pulling this out of her purse at odd times/places and rolling it around her eyes.
Jane: I am not going to tell you that my eyes looks younger-looking since I started using this product a few weeks ago. I don't get how I would notice that unless I took detailed before and after shots. What I can tell you is that I wake up with puffy eyes if I even look at salt, and I find this product extremely soothing and de-puffing. I love rubbing the 3 metal balls around my eyes. I don't ever want to stop. Even when this runs out of product I will probably still use it just to rub the cold metal balls around my face.

MagnaPods Cosmetic Organizer (adjustable dividers), $9.99
magnapods.com
Liz: I never have enough space on my sink for all the products I want easy access to. These ingenious clear storage units magnetically stick to the INSIDE of your medicine cabinet, giving you tons more storage. I keep all my make up brushes and eye pencils in them. These are a game changer!
Jane: This is one of those "why didn't I think of that" products that you are going to be SO grateful we are telling you about. I keep my lipsticks in one, brushes in another and Q-Tips and cotton pads in the third. They saved me this summer when my summer rental bathroom had no storage space. Cabinet not magnetic? Have no fear. Simply purchase the steel sheet for $4.99 with peel away adhesive to instantly make any surface magnetic.

Estée Lauder Double Wear Zero-Smudge Lengthening Mascara , $19.50
nordstrom.com
Liz: We love to bounce between different fave mascaras but I gotta say that in this heat, the one I find I can count on never to run is Estee Lauder zero smudge. Here's what we said about it back in November: I am not kidding when I say that this mascara makes my lashes look already curled (my fab makeup artist agrees) and it NEVER smudges.
Jane: I will go with Liz on this one, she's obsessed with her lashes looking curled and long!

Mario Badescu Summer Shine Body Lotion, $10
amazon.com
Liz: Jane and I walked into a friend's house in Sag Harbor the other night and we were both struck by how beautifully sun-kissed and healthy her arms looked. This is what she used. It provides just the right amount of shimmer and shine so you don't look silly!
Jane: I really could not take my eyes off her arms. Granted her arms are much more well-defined then mine but they were just glowing (in fact I kept touching them). It moisturizes while providing the perfect amount of soft shimmer.

Desert Essence 100% Pure Australian Tea Tree Oil 2 fl oz, $19.99
drugstore.com
Liz: Our Beauty Consultant friend Kelly Langberg turned on the the simple magic of Tea Tree Oil. I hate bug spray so I dab this natural oil behind my ears and other pressure points to ward off bugs and ticks. I also dab it on my kids to prevent lice!
Jane: I use it for all the above things and more: When I get a blemish that won't go away as it is removes bacteria and penetrates lower skin layers, on bug bites (when I forget to put it on first), on cuts and burns as it is an anti-inflammatory... the list is endless.

Biologique Recherche Lotion P50 with Phenol (original version) 5.1 fl oz, $50
acnewizard.com
Liz: When my 9 year old daughter came to me today with a small blemish on her cheek, I realized the only product I would ever consider using is this one. It is not traditionally for acne or for children, but it is simply the best facial cleaner I know of.
Jane: I call this "magic potion". I do not use any pimple medicine other then Biologique Recherche cleaners and syrums recommended to me by my facialist Aida Bicaj (AKA Guru). It exfoliates, hydrates, and balances the skin. I have sensitive skin prone to breakouts. Using this product has completely transformed my skin.

Oribe Impermeable Anti-Humidity Spray, $38
belltowerstore.com
Liz: We ran this back in early December but as we keep reaching for this great product on these thick sticky days, we thought it was worth re-running: The beautiful woman, who used to manage the Liz Lange Maternity Store on Madison Avenue, has thick luxurious hair. She swears that this product is her secret weapon and that without it, her hair would be curly and frizzy. Say no more.
Jane: Liz likes this spray to keep her blow outs sleek and smooth but I use it to give my hair volume. TIP: Spray a little of this on your brush before using to prevent static and fly aways.

The Wanderlove Eye Wand, $16.99
wanderlovebeauty
Liz: This is the perfect travel product! Throw this in your bag and you have all the eye makeup you need (minus mascara). The 3 products all click together to make 1 streamlined product. Pay attention: It looks like 2-fer but it's actually a 3-fer!
Jane: New favorite product alert! First you put on the highlighter, then you put on the cream shadow, then the liner. When Liz and I shot a TV segment yesterday and needed to arrive at the studio hair and makeup ready this was the only product I used on my eyes (+mascara). I am partial to the champagne as it is so neutral but all the colors are pretty. I may get the smoke or bronze for when I want a more dramatic look.

Simple Refresh Facial Wash Gel, 8 pounds (uncluding shipping)
amazon.co.uk
Liz: Confession - I usually wash my face with just plain NYC water. But I love how chemical - free this face wash is.
Jane: The name of this product says it all "simple" and "refresh". I use this facial wash every day. It is almost like using nothing but water and yet it removes makeup and all product from my face. It is not drying or harsh on my skin. Online you can only buy from UK but Duane Reade Drugstores in NYC carry it.
