Rhode Highlight Milk Multipurpose Luminizer
According to the brand, this illuminating milk from Rhode features a ceramide trio, mineral complex and Vitamin E to smooth skin, while pearly pigments give skin an undeniable glow. Available in four shades, the product is designed for summertime skin care.
Our tester found the watery formula easy to use on face or body, giving skin a gorgeous glow. She applied a few drops to her regular moisturizer to wake up her complexion, and also applied the milk all over her arms, legs and chest for a summertime event. The product has been sold out, which our tester says is because it is that good. The reviewer also praised the new Pocket Bronzer release, a selection of glow-enhancing cream bronzers that are buildable, bendable and packable.
Price: $42 at Sephora.
Teaology Happy Body All-in-One Slimming Balm
The brand says this body balm contains hyaluronic acid, menthol, organic black tea and the Drosera Carnivorous plant (dubbed the fat-eating plant) to visibly reduce the appearance of cellulite. The vegan-friendly formula hydrates skin while improving tone and texture.
Our tester described the moisturizer as having a gel-lotion texture with a pleasant minty scent that was easy to apply, leaving skin hydrated and smooth. With daily use over several weeks, she noticed a modest tightening effect. While no body cream is a silver bullet for stubborn cellulite, this balm seemed to improve skin tone and appearance.

Calvin Klein Sheer Peach Unisex Hair & Body Perfume Mist
According to Calvin Klein, this unisex fragrance mist features notes of peach, freesia and water lily, along with a base of amber musk. Suitable for use on body and hair, the hydrating formula can be worn alone or layered with another fragrance for a unique summer scent.
Our tester, who is often wary of fruit-forward fragrances, was curious to try this mist. She found that while there is an undeniable note of peach, it is the warm base of musk and soft floral notes that really play on the skin. She described it as delightful.
Price: $37 at Shoppers Drug Mart.
