Trader Joe’s contains multitudes: unique snacks, a variety of frozen food, and, yes, skin-care products. Many of which have been known to go viral for being dupes of their more expensive counterparts.
Our beauty expert spent a month putting all of the store’s core skin-care offerings to the test — wearing them under makeup, in a dry office, and during a humid summer trip to France and Greece.

“It hadn’t occurred to me that putting on sunscreen could be a pleasurable experience,” says writer Rose Maura Lorre. Then, she tried this one.

It leaves Rose’s skin so supple, she actually looks forward to wearing it.

These sateen sheets come in a rainbow of colors, wrinkle less than our other picks, and last for years. They feel so luxe that some of our testers couldn’t tell the difference between these and $1,000-plus luxury Italian sheets they tested.

Enlisting the help of 11 testers with various ability levels, we tested 41 adaptive makeup products and tools designed with accessibility in mind. In the end, we found nine standouts — like an eyeliner stamp for a perfect wing and an easy-to-grip eyeshadow brush — that make application easier for everyone.
Including a 3-in-1 makeup stick for the eyes, cheeks, and lips→
