As a busy mom my beauty routine is pretty minimal on the average day, but these are the products I rely on always.
The creamiest, thickest, and most luxurious feeling moisture, and free of shitty chemicals; this one’s approved in Europe
NIVEA Creme Moisturizing Cream for All Skin
Hands down my favorite flossers. Pro tip: put a jar of them next to your bed.
Floss Picks | Grip Handle Charcoal 50-p
It really is magic. I use this on just about every skin condition that pops up. And when you have 3 kids…there’s a lot of those. Pro tip: it works fabulously as a clean deodorant
Magic Molecule
Throw away all the other nail polish you own. This is the only one you need.
Original Illuminating Nail Concealer
I’m no hair stylist, but being able to straighten or curl or wave with one item is clutch. Especially if your travel. Or even if you just have a small bathroom like me, and can’t store like 17 heat styling tools.
Le Duo 360° Airflow Styler in Standard or Grande Sizes
My holy grail, every day, must use item, AND it’s affordable
Good Molecules Hyaluronic Acid Serum 30 ml
My main concern with my face and my skincare is my dark circles. This gem solves that problem. It’s as critical as my morning coffee.
Yerba Mate Wake Up Eye Gel
Tanning and Firming!? Yes please. This is my winter legs’ best friend.
Jergens Natural Glow +Firming Self Tanner Lotion
I honestly don’t care if this curls or length or whatever all I care about is how easily it comes off. Literally just warm water and it all comes off mess free
Double Extend Beauty Tubes Lengthening Mascara
Under eye patches are always fun, especially when you share them with friends, but these ones actually do something. I noticed a definite difference in the puffiness under my eyes when I’ve worn these in the morning, especially after a night of too m...
grace & stella Under Eye Mask, Under Eye Patches Combo Pack, 36-count, 2- ...
This is the only thing I use on my face when it comes to makeup. It’s a tinted SPF rather than an actual foundation. It’s super lightweight and somehow matches my skin tone whether it’s summer or winter.
Universal Tinted Moisturizer SPF 46
This product is an investment. I’m not gonna lie. It is not cheap. But my husband and I both agree. It is the greatest thing we have ever bought ourselves. I am a hot sleeper, but only in the middle of the night when I first get in bed. My feet are f...
Eight Sleep | Bed Cooling/Heating System
I received this as a birthday gift and I ended up buying one for every member of the family because it is so great. It helps keep your hair from getting frizzy or tangled and it helps improve your skin too.
I splurged on these for myself and boy am I glad I did. My hair generally sucks but especially right now during postpartum and this shampoo and conditioner that was custom made for me by function of beauty is saving it. I love that you take an easy q...
Custom Shampoo
This stuff feels really good and maybe actually does something for my skin but I can’t say for sure cuz I used so many things at the same time as it 🤪
COSRX Snail Mucin 96% Repairing Essence 100ml
The absolute BEST makeup for summer time or vacation. SPF and a sheet tint that gives you a glow and blurs your imperfections just enough
OK people, this thing truly works. I mostly use the red light feature, but I do feel like I can see a difference in my face, plus it’s a great excuse for a 20 minute nap if nothing else.
Beuwe 7-Color LED Red-Light Therapy Mask
CeraVe anything is great, but this is my absolute favorite product. Medium is perfect for me in the summer and light the rest of the year.
Medium Hydrating Mineral Sunscreen Face Lotion with Sheer Tint SPF 30 - CeraVe | Ulta Beauty
This product is amazing because you can add it to any moisturizer or serum that you already use and you can adjust how much you want in there so that you don’t look overly tan.
Light/Medium THE FACE - Illuminating Self-Tan Drops - TAN-LUXE | Ulta Beauty
This is the holy Grail of serums. I’m not kidding. Add this to your routine and you will not regret it. I literally look forward to using these every night because I know I will see a difference in the morning. Worth the investment 100%.
Naked & Thriving Night Set: Serum + Face Oil
Tinted moisturizer with SPF is what I consider my foundation. Actual foundation makes my skin look worse somehow now that I’m in my “late” 30’s. And this one is a winner. Plus you can just add it on to that Walmart grocery order 😉
La Roche-Posay Anthelios Tinted Mineral Fluid Sunscreen for Face SPF 50, 1.7 fl oz
With postpartum hair loss happening in full swing, this stuff is a lifesaver. System four is what you want if you’ve ever color treated your hair before. And this is a three month supply!
Nioxin Hair Care Kit System 4
As if we didn’t already know, Korean beauty is living in the future. And this product is one of the best I’ve found. The collagen is microparticlized! It also contains ceramide and milk protein! And they’re at target!
