Banish blemishes with this light.

The latest science-backed technology in thwarting breakouts comes in a small laser that combines both red (it reduces inflammation) and blue (it kills acne-causing bacteria) light. It’s easy, portable and safe to use. Simply point the wand at each blemish, then blast it for a clearer complexion in under a week!

Conceal sparse spots with this hairspray.

An innovative way to camouflage any signs of thinning? A hair spray containing tinted fibers (yes, it comes in gray too!) that adhere to existing hairs to fill in thinner areas. It’s also infused with hair-strengthening keratin to help prevent future shedding and impart youthful-looking volume. Tip: Hold the spray’s nozzle six inches away from the scalp and lightly mist onto small sections for even coverage.

“Whiten” teeth with this toothpaste.

It may sound strange, but a toothpaste that contains purple pigments can temporarily tint yellow teeth so they look pearly white. How it works: “Purple and yellow are opposites on the color wheel, so they cancel each other out,” says celebrity cosmetic dentist Lana Rozenberg, D.D.S. Even better? One that’s also made with coconut oil (it’s been found to pull embedded stains from the tooth’s surface) can help teeth appear four shades lighter in two weeks.

Nix facial hair with this depilatory.

Cream-based facial hair removers have been around for years, but they can be irritating! The newest evolution uses a unique chemical that gently and swiftly dissolves proteins in hair (so it doesn’t have to sit on skin for long), as well as skin-soothing ingredients like vitamin E and aloe vera to combat any potential irritation, says aesthetician Bella Schneider.

Stop scalp flaking with this scrub.

Just like the complexion needs exfoliation to slough away dry, flaky skin cells, so too does the scalp. Plus, a flake-free scalp can lead to a boost in hair growth. Enter the new trend in skincare: scalp scrubs. Schneider advises picking one infused with anti-fungal apple cider vinegar. Its malic acid kills any dandruff and exfoliates a dry scalp so you can say bye-bye to flakes for good!
