Exfoliants

Liquid exfoliant meaning gentle on skin as beaded scrubs are too harsh for the skin barrier. Also fragrance free. Notice a theme? All about the sensitive skin girlies ✨
Paula's Choice

Great exfoliator for shower routines or those that might prefer a scrub option. This is the only face scrub option that I’d recommend. It’s extremely fine and not harsh. Leaves me skin feeling so soft and smooth.

Hydrating Milky Toner

Absolutely love this stuff! It really has helped with dark spots from previous acne history and truly brightens my complexion. ALSO…extremely affordable as the ordinary doesn’t market their products so no increase in price. WE LOVE.

Magic. In. A. Bottle. Really helps with hyperpigmentation from acne or the sun. If you’re willing to spend a little extra coin you will not be disappointed. This product is LUXE!!

Moisturizers

YUKA 100/100 and that’s what we love to see!! It’s definitely all about balance, but if I can find a product that’s clean and is up to my performance standards…that’s a win all day every day. This moisturizer is bomb. Also a great size to throw in yo...

Treatments

LISTEN UP 🗣️✨ If you want radiant and more youthful looking skin, skip every other skin care product and purchase these peel pads. I wake up with glowy skin, less defined wrinkles, and more even skin tone. They are pricey but I promise you, it’s ma...
Peels | Dennis Gross Skincare

Thick gel mask that provides insane hydration and has collagen as well as niacinamide. This might sound bizarre but I feel like it tightened my skin after wearing it….and that’s fine by me!
Masks

A luxurious experience that gives results of glass skin. The best part is the cooling sensation. Picture this: Friday night in, glass of red, and a cooling mask while on the couch in a matching PJ set. Yeah, DND.

Emily McDaniel profile picture
This product is what I call versatility. I personally use this on my hair for my middle part when I’m at the beach or the pool so I avoid the scalp sunburn which in turn means I avoid the flakes. ALSO, great for ears and faces of kiddos that won’t st...

YUKA: 93/100 and let me tell you, finding clean sunscreen is HARD!!! I personally use this on the daily on my neck and hands because my makeup has sunscreen in it. Great size for on the go as well!

THIS. If you want a tinted sunscreen because you like an even complexion and it gives you that confidence, LOOK NO FURTHER. My skin loved this and it’s super lightweight, not greasy, and has no fragrance. Legit, all wins and no loses. Just trust !!

Icing in a bottle. I love the vanilla scent of this and it always gets me compliments. Definitely an easy grab if you’re in a pinch. I never had a problem with irritation from the fragrance.

I haven’t found a dry brush yet that beats this one! Not to harsh and the elastic band around the hand allows for gentle massaging. A MUST before an everything shower!!
Dry Body Brush, Pink

I don’t know what it is, but men’s razors always hit!! Harry’s is the best one I’ve found so far. I love being able to buy the blade refills and just keeping the same handle and the chrome handle looks very luxe as well. This is coming from a girl wi...
