As some who writes about products and sales for a living, I have zero shame in admitting I spend the bulk of my time online shopping. (I mean, it's a tough job and someone's got to do it.) So, whenever a retailer drops a new collection, you better believe I'm already making a mental shopping list — okay, fine, for both business and pleasure.
Take Target, for example. The retailer has so many awesome, affordable finds that it's virtually impossible to just buy one thing. (I mean, where else can you buy cute dresses, skin-care, and home decor for under $100?) That said, with so many new arrivals to sift through, finding the best buys is easier said than done. Don't worry, help is on the way. To help streamline your next shopping spree, check out what I'm eying from Target's new arrivals. Whether you want to get a head-start on your fall wardrobe or are ready to spruce up your home, these picks definitely deserve a spot in your e-cart.
Hello, Hydration: Beyou. Hyaluronic Acid Gel Moisturiser
Behind every hydrated, dewy complexion is some hyaluronic acid. (Seriously, one gram of this miracle ingredient can reportedly hold up to six liters of water. I know, whoa.) This Beyou. Hyaluronic Acid Gel Moisturiser ($22) goes on like a lightweight gel, but will make your skin feel nourished in a snap.
Sweet Shirt: Universal Thread Women's Puff Short Sleeve Ruffle Peplum Blouse
