Topical Skin Products
I have such oily, acne prone skin. Ive tired a million products from drugstore to luxury and this product has been a gamechanger. The price was a little more than I usually spend on skincare, but it has helped with fading acne marks, skin texture and...

This moisturizer is awesome especially for oily skin. I use it at night and in the morning. Its not greasy, and it makes my skin feel amazing. Also its so light, it doesn't clog pores or cause any breakouts.
Neutrogena Hydro Boost Water Face Gel For Dry Skin
Love this mask for a once to twice a week refresh. It lasts forever and it clarifies my skin without over drying it or causing damage. It also washes off SUPER easy with warm water which is a plus because I hate masks where you're fighting for your l...
All About Clean™ 2-in-1 Charcoal Mask + Scrub - Clinique
Sometimes having oily skin, people tend to use really drying products to combat the oil and acne. I have done this in the past, and ended up with more oil and flakey damaged skin, when that happened, this product SAVED ME. A little goes a long way, b...
Moisture Surge™ 100H Auto-Replenishing Hydrator
I love a good tinted sunscreen. Acne prone skin is so rough especially in the summer when everyone is going bareface. I love sunscreen but I hate being a ghost. This sunscreen provides a little extra coverage/color on days where you don't feel like p...
Anthelios Mineral Tinted Sunscreen for Face with SPF
I LOVE this face wash. I usually double cleanse at night to make sure my makeup is off and help my skin get all the benefits possible. This feels AMAZING going on my skin and takes off makeup with zero struggle. I follow it with the Neutrogena Hydro ...

This face wash is gentle yet effective. Its also affordable. I see no negatives here!
Neutrogena Hydro Boost Cleansing Gel
This is great for 2 to 3 times a week use for me. It combats any breakouts that may be coming. I try to use it on the nights I dont use my retinol. Its super great if you have any body acne.
PanOxyl Acne Foaming Wash Benzoyl Peroxide 10%
This is something new Ive tried lately and I love it. Its great for washing off makeup and oil buildup from a long day on the skin. A common issue I run into with oily skin is that by the time I have to take it off at night, its very difficult to mak...
NEW Take The Day Off™ Facial Cleansing Mousse
I don't always use lip masks but when I do this one is my go to. I use Aquaphor 90% of the time but sometimes I like to be a little extra and treat myself. This is hydrating and plumping. It lasts forever too.
Lip Mask – Babe Original
For dry cracked lips, especially in the winter, nothing beats this. No fancy products or masks. Just Aquaphor.
AQUAPHOR® LIP REPAIR
This stuff has been around for years but if you mix it with a little apple cider vinegar and water its MAGIC. The cracking and pulsing hurts but in the best way. Its helped so much with my blackheads.
Aztec Secret Indian Healing Clay 1 lb
I love this product in the summer. Even though my skin is oily, when I spend time in the sun it gets dry. In order to keep it healthy, I like to use this a couple times a week. It makes my skin GLOW! It’s a super creamy formula. I put it on over my s...
Moisture Surge™ Overnight Mask
One thing to consider if you have acne that just won't go away is incorporating a good retinoid into your skincare routine. I only use this like 2 times a week because it's very powerful and a little goes a long way, but it has helped so much with ac...

When my skin breaks out, a lot of times its hormonal. Spearmint tea is a great natural way to combat hormonal acne. It tastes good too ;)
Organic Spearmint Tea
I love this for spot treating under the surface pimples. If you can catch them early with this, they dont even come to a head most times. Its great and affordable.
Neutrogena Light Therapy Acne Treatment
Having a silk pillowcase has helped my skin so much. I have 4-5 washed and ready so I can switch them out regularly as well. Its great for your hair and really good for your skin.
ZIMASILK 100% Pure Mulberry Silk Pillowcase
I love these pimple patches because they are cheap and they work so well. The ones with aloe are great for healing open pimples.
Hanhoo Extra Strength Blemish Patch, 36 Count, …
Dermaplaning has burned me WAY too many times. I breakout, or somehow miss a bunch of spots. This is a way better option for sensitive skin. I love it, its easy to use and easy to clean. AND no post use breakouts!
Finishing Touch Flawless Facial Hair Remover Electric …
I ice my face at least 3 times a week. It helps my pores, inflammation and honestly makes my makeup glide better on my skin. This tool makes it easier to ice skin because holding an ice cube on your face is not easy…I've definitely tried.
Ice Roller & Mold for Face Massager Tools
Everyone needs a good headband to keep hair out of the way during skincare. This one works and its cheap. I don't think this is an item worth breaking the bank for, so the cheaper the better.
CONAIR Spa Headband - Black Makeup Band
This one might seem strange but drying my face with paper towels really helped slow down break outs. No more reusing the same towel on my skin or a clean towel with detergent that irritates my skin.
