The Glow Getter: Shimmer Face Oil
Why it’s worth it: Not only does Jones Road’s Shimmer Face Oil instantly boost radiance with its hints of shimmer and glass-like finish, but its formula also helps you maintain your natural glow in the long run. This Allure Best of Beauty Award-winning formula is spiked with nine moisturizing oils, including those derived from jojoba seed and coconut, for their plumping and smoothing benefits. These oils are also rich in antioxidants like vitamin E, which help even tone and brighten your complexion.

Your Smoky Eye’s BFF: The Best Pencil
Why it’s worth it: Jones Road’s The Best Pencil won an Allure Best of Beauty Award in 2021 for its pigmented, blendable formula, and you can still find our editors lining our lids with one of its six shades over four years later. Each slender pencil has a sturdy, ultra-dense tip that effortlessly glides without skipping or breaking. This versatile formula’s creamy, pigmented texture begs to be blended, but it can be used to create sharp wings and blurred smoky eyes as well.

How we test and review products
Before reviewing any makeup, we ask questions about a number of factors: What ingredients are in it? Does the brand offer a wide shade range inclusive of consumers with all skin tones and undertones? Is it safe for readers who have sensitive skin or wear contact lenses? Is it on the affordable side or more of a splurge? Is its packaging consciously designed or needlessly wasteful?
For our review of the best Jones Road products, we enlisted the help of multiple editors, writers, contributors, and professional makeup artists to review the products. This ensures our testing base spans different skin tones, genders, and dermatological conditions. We considered each product’s performance across four primary categories: ingredients, wear and longevity, packaging, and inclusivity. For more on what’s involved in our reporting, check out our complete reviews process and methodology page.
Our staff and testers
A beauty product is a personal purchase. You might be searching for a face cream to address persistent dryness or a new nail product to add to your Sunday self-care routine; you may simply be browsing around for the latest launches to hit the hair market. No matter what you seek or your individual needs and concerns, Allure wants to ensure that you love anything we recommend in our stories. We believe that having a diverse team of writers and editors—in addition to the wide range of outside testers and industry experts we regularly call upon—is essential to reaching that goal.
