STRAIGHTENING

BRUSH

Kemper is already a fan

of Drybar hair salons, and the

brand’s new heated brush

didn’t disappoint: “It’s extremely

efficient,” she says. “Just one or

two strokes got my hair very

smooth. My husband asked if I

had gotten my hair done!”

HAIR MAKEUP

While the bright hues of this

temporary hair tint felt more

appropriate “for a particularly

fun party,” Kemper says using

the golden shade was like getting

subtle highlights. “I worked it

through with my fingers, and it

intensified my natural hair color,”

she says. “And it came out in

one wash, as promised.”

ILLUMINATING

EYE GELS

Her favorite thing

about wearing these

refreshing undereye

patches was that they

were practically

imperceptible: “I could

walk outside to the

store, and it just looks

like I have a little

highlighter on.”

CHARCOAL

MASK

“My face is usually

pretty oily,” says

Zamata. Just one

application of this

detoxifying mask

made her skin look

more matte yet

didn’t dry it out.

PATCHES

FOR SMILE LINES

Zamata says these wrinkle-

targeting patches felt like the

answer to her Google searches.

“My smile lines are getting

more defined, so I put these on

before bed, which I think freaked

out my boyfriend.” She woke

up with softer-looking lines

around her mouth. “I definitely

saw an effect,” she says.

The Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt star, author, and mom

loves time-saving products that deliver immediate results.

While filming or doing stand-up, the actress and comedian

is subjected to harsh lights and heavy makeup, so she’s

always on the hunt for ways to give her skin a little TLC.

“I was intimidated [by this LED device] at

first, but I downloaded the app and it synced

right up to the program for the mini

mask you put on it. I loved the woman’s

voice telling me to relax. It was a little

taste of luxury for 90 seconds.”

Vitamin C

products

sometimes get a

bad rap for their

unpleasant scent,

but Zamata is

pleased to report

this brightening

formula smells

sweet, “like a

Starburst.”
