Valorant features a variety of cosmetic items that alter the appearance of weapons and player accounts. These cosmetics can be obtained through various means, including Battle Passes, Gear, and the Store. While most cosmetics are time-limited, some, like those from Gear, are permanent. Weapon skins, in particular, can range from simple recolors to elaborate designs with unique animations and sound effects. Players can also set their favorite skins to be randomly equipped each game.

• Level Borders: Earned through account progression, these appear around player icons.
• Buddies: Charms that attach to guns.
• Flex: Items equipped via the Expression Wheel.
• Player Cards: Images that customize player icons, loading screens, and kill banners.
• Player Titles: Displayed under player names in lobbies and loading screens.
• Sprays: Images applied to map surfaces via the Expression Wheel, some with animations and sound.
• Weapon Skins: Modify weapon appearance, with options for upgrades, unique effects, sounds, and animations. The 'Random Favorite' option allows for randomized equipping of favorite skins.

Cosmetics can be grouped into collections, some of which are available as bundles for direct purchase. The table below details various collections, their sources, and the types of cosmetics they include, such as guns, melees, buddies, player cards, sprays, player titles, and flex items, along with their respective upgrade levels.
