Dior Forever Nude Bronze

They say: A bronzing compact from the French luxury brand Dior that promises “summer on your skin in a single sweep.” Available in four shades, the matte-finish makeup is infused with hyaluronic acid and a vitamin C ingredient for a smooth finish.

We say: This compact is stunning with its silver accents and iconic Dior “Cannage” pattern. The pressed powder inside is equally as luxe as the exterior, providing a perfectly sun-kissed appearance wherever applied.

Love Ur Curls Shampoo for Wavy, Curly & Kinky-Coily Hair

They say: A shampoo for curly hair types from the Canadian brand Love Ur Curls. The clean, vegan and cruelty-free formula feature shea butter and moringa oil to help nourish and define curls in addition to cleansing.

We say: “This shampoo is nice!” our tester, a woman in her 60s with very curly hair, reported back. A little of this rich shampoo goes a long way, she notes, producing a nice lather that leaves hair feeling clean yet not dry. After use, and with the help of a Love Ur Curls conditioner, she noted her curls were defined and frizz-free.
