Know how every Brazilian seems to have amazing hair? This product is probably why. One of the most popular at-home hair treatments in Brazil, Pantene's Intense Rescue Shots will be available stateside in the new year. Each single-dose ampoule is filled with lipids and pro-vitamin B5 (for strengthening) and glycerin (for hydration), to target the most damaged areas, resulting in softer, shinier, and stronger hair. Work the serum through your hair from root to tip (once a week, in place of conditioner), leave it in for a minute, rinse out, and then watch out, Gisele.

For feline flicks that would have made even Cleopatra jealous, the Afro.Dis.Is Liquid Eyeliner the trailblazer weve been waiting for? Defiantly black and seductively precise, the liner is inspired by the queens of Egypt, the home of the world's first eyeliner.

Nothing can get rid of cellulite permanently, but this is the best temporary fix.

The name of this mascara says enough it's truly a makeup product that does the most (in the best way possible). The fibers of the wand lock onto each lash, giving them volume, length, and curl that won't clump. And the hourglass shape of the wand means you can customize your lash look from natural to over the top the shorter bristles deposit less pigment, while the longer ones kick out the lashes at your outer corners.
