Makes me look way more rested and radiant than I actually am. Shade 2.5 works perfectly when my skin’s on the paler side—adds a subtle, not sparkly, glow that looks good even in terrible bathroom lighting. I use it under foundation, mixed in, or on t...
Hollywood Flawless Filter: Glow Booster
Full coverage without full regret. Shade 6 Neutral blends seamlessly with my skin tone and does an incredible job blurring my pores—my biggest skin frustration—without settling into them. The finish is smooth and long-lasting, with a matte-but-not-fl...
Airbrush Flawless Foundation: Full Coverage
The only foundation I’ve actually finished. Shade 120 works really well for my olive-leaning skin when it gets a bit paler in the winter—neutral enough to blend without looking too pink or yellow. The formula is buildable, lightweight, and evens ever...

It gives me the perfect glow even in the cold New England winters without fading or looking too caked on. I also love how quickly and easily it blends shortening my morning routines
Rare Beauty by Selena Gomez Warm Wishes Effortless Cream Bronzer Stick
Creamy, brightening, and actually hydrating—which feels illegal for a longwear concealer. Shade 120N is perfect for my lighter, olive-leaning winter skin without looking too yellow or too pale. Blends easily with fingers or a sponge, and does not set...
We're Even Hydrating Longwear Concealer
My go-to glow booster when I want fresh, dewy skin without shimmer overload. This water‑gel formula (with glycerin, squalane, and rosehip oil) hydrates and brightens, giving a natural “lit from within” flush—great under foundation, mixed in, or worn ...
Saie Glowy Super Gel | All-Over Luminizer | Clean Highlighter
My go-to bronzer for adding a natural, sunkissed glow without ever looking orange—seriously, it’s the opposite of harsh. Laguna 04 is a medium bronze with warm undertones that smooths out pores and adds dimension. Talc-free, finely milled, and blenda...
Laguna Bronzing Powder
Ridiculously pigmented—in the best way. Grateful is a dewy, true red that looks intimidating in the bottle but melts into the most natural flush with the tiniest drop. I’m talking one dot per cheek. I’ve used it endlessly and still have not made a de...
Soft Pinch Liquid Blush | Long-Lasting Dewy & Matte Blushes
Eyes (eyeliner, mascara, brow products, eyeshadow, lash tools)
Smooth, rich color that glides on without skipping or tugging—because my eyelids don’t need extra stress. True Brown is the perfect not-too-harsh shade for everyday definition, especially if black feels too intense. It stays put all day, even on my l...
Perfect Strokes Longwear Gel Eyeliner
If black liner feels too harsh but you still want definition, this is it. Big Truffle is a rich, matte chocolate brown that adds depth without screaming “I’m wearing eyeliner.” Creamy going on, then sets and stays. No tugging, no smudging halfway thr...

This mascara is my holy-grail for length—no falsies needed. Ideal for my sparse, thin lashes, it delivers insane elongation and separation without clumping. The precision wand gets every lash, even those straggly inner corners, and it stays put all d...
Telescopic Intense Lash Length Original Mascara - L'Oréal Paris
This liner is giving “I own nice things but don’t make a big deal about it.” The formula is super creamy, blends like a dream, and stays put without turning into raccoon eyes. I use the bronze shade when I want definition without looking overly done—...
Satin Kajal Liner
Fragrance (perfumes, layering tips, body sprays)
Beach in a bottle. Notes of coconut milk, solar tuberose, and warm sand add up to a sunny nostalgia that actually lasts 4–6 hours—longer than most fragrance mists I’ve tried. It’s fresh, effortless, and one of the few scents that earns compliments wi...
Cheirosa 87 Rio Radiance™ Perfume Mist - Solar Floral Scent
A soft, powdery floral that feels like clean skin (but elevated). Notes of peony, lychee, freesia, rose, and a whisper of cedarwood give it light sophistication and lasting presence—enough to feel polished without being too much. It’s my go-to when I...
Chloé Eau de Parfum
A timeless floral that smells like polished elegance—peony, ylang-ylang, jasmine, and a whisper of rose meld into a clean, glow-y skin vibe. It’s the fragrance I spray when I want to feel pulled together—even on a Zoom call. Compliments come on cue, ...
J'adore - Women's Fragrance
This is my go-to for refreshing my hair between washes without feeling like I just doused myself in body spray. Amber Shores smells like a salty, sun-kissed breeze—somehow warm, fresh, and clean all at once. It’s giving “beachy without trying too har...

Lips (lipstick, balm, liner, gloss)
I’m obsessed. This is my everyday, throw-it-on, feel-put-together lip color. Russet River is that perfect rich rose-brown that somehow works with everything—one swipe gives a hint of tint, a few more and it builds into a deeper, moodier look. It is s...
Satin Lipstick
Everything you need for that perfect “I woke up like this” nude-pink pout—matte lipstick, matching liner, and glossy finish. The shade is universally flattering (hello, soft rose-beige), glides on smoothly, and hydrates without drying. Ideal for effo...
The Pillow Talk Lip Kit - Nude-pink Lipstick, Liner & Gloss
Not for the faint-lip. This is a serious plumper—tingles HARD and gives real volume instantly (I swipe, wait five minutes, and wow). It hydrates too, so lips aren’t just fuller—they’re smoother. I use it over lipstick or solo for a mini pout boost. P...
Lip Injection Maximum Plump Extra Strength Hydrating Lip Plumper Gloss
The perfect red—rich, satin finish that glides on creamy and bold without drying out your lips. Le Rouge (R1) is that timeless ruby red that looks like classic Hollywood without feeling costume-y. Long-lasting, hydrating with ceramides and flower ext...

Hair (shampoo, conditioner, masks, oils, tools)
The invisible fix that gives my thick mane fresh volume and grit without needing to wash it. Absorbs leftover oil, adds lightweight texture, and smells like Côte d’Azur sunshine. I only wash my hair every couple of weeks—this keeps second- (or third-...

My thick hair’s secret weapon when I only wash every couple of weeks. This mist detangles, battles frizz, and protects from heat (and UV!) up to 450°F—all while keeping my mane smooth and salon-fresh. It’s lightweight, absorbs instantly, and smells l...
Leave In Travel Conditioner - Heat Protection Spray For Hair
