White Button-downs We Swear By and Spring Trends to Shop

Paula’s Choice Skin Perfecting 2% BHA Liquid Exfoliant
This cult-favorite toner is formulated with salicylic acid to help exfoliate the skin, unclog pores, and prevent breakouts — without irritating and drying out the skin.

Augustinus Bader The Cream
You know her, you love her. Sure, she’s expensive (even at 20 percent off), but beauty experts agree: This intensely hydrating cream is worth the investment. It’s powered by hydrolyzed rice protein and vitamins A, C, and B5.

NuFACE Trinity Starter Kit
Several Cut staff members swear by this noninvasive microcurrent device that helps increase the tone of facial muscles over time and stimulate collagen production. You’ll notice a more sculpted and defined appearance almost immediately — especially if you use it consistently.

COS Batwing-Sleeve Twill Shirt
My beloved COS button-down was a thrift find from years ago, so it’s no longer available. As a loyal COS customer, though, I can definitely vouch for the quality and comfort of the brand’s designs. If you prefer tailored button-downs and think oversize ones tend to look sloppy, this shirt might change your mind. It’s fitted throughout but has wide-cut batwing sleeves, so it’s the best of both worlds.

COS Button-down Collar Oxford Shirt
The Cut’s fashion-market editor, Cortne Bonilla, who actually prefers menswear options, recommends this shirt from COS, which features a tailored hem, long cuff sleeves, and a buttoned-down collar that evokes a true menswear look. “There’s just something about this shirt — it fits me better than any womenswear brand I’ve tried as of late, and the cotton is just buttery soft,” she says.

Djerf Avenue Breezy Shirt White
Behold, the ultimate boxy button-down. This one from Matilda Djerf’s line is great for tall girls who like a little crop or short girls who don’t want to feel like they’re being swallowed by a long shirt. I love layering it under sweaters or rolling up the sleeves if I’m going for a casual look. Size up if you prefer an oversize fit.
