I swear my skin has never felt cleaner and softer when I’m done cleansing with this stuff. That tight, dry feeling some face washers cause? Nowhere to be found. My skin feels so good I sometimes forget to go on to the next step of my routine. I clean...

I’ve tried so many toners, but always come back to this one. It’s not too strong or drying. It doesn’t irritate my skin. I feel like my other products absorb really well after using it. I’m very satisfied with it, even though it doesn’t seem like any...

My skin has never been so smooth, radiant, and plump. This with a top notch moisturizer and even the desert can’t dry my skin out!

My sensitive skin was no match for the brutal dryness of the desert, until I found Obagi Hydro Drops. They are a necessity if you live in a dry climate and struggle with dry, itchy, flaky skin. I use Hydro Drops before my moisturizer for deeper hydra...

Botox in a bottle, I swear to god. My skin looks smoother, clearer, and brighter, and my fine lines and wrinkles aren’t nearly as prevalent. Yes, it’s expensive, but the results continue to get even better over time so it’s worth it to me. Plus, it’s...

This is the most hydrating, rejuvenating moisturizer I’ve ever tried, and is perfect for winter when the air is extra dry.

My faaavorite sunscreen. It melts into my skin, doesn’t clog my pores, in fact - it smooths my entire face out. It’s the perfect primer for makeup, and I love that it’s SPF 50. I bought a full bottle immediately after trying a sample size.

Absolutely love this mascara because it doesn’t flake, but it is really easy to get off.

This eyeliner glides right on and is so freaking easy to use on your lashline or to create a cat-eye look. I've got it in dark brown and black.

If I’m going for a sharp wing, I choose Stila every time. I love how thin it is. It’s easy to build out into a wing and it stays put all day.

I love a bold red lip, and a matte lip stain is my favorite way to achieve it. The Sephora lip stain is creamy. It doesn’t dry out my lips, and it lasts quite a while. It’s not totally smudge proof, but it’s pretty resilient. Great price point, too.

Don’t forget to double cleanse. It makes all the difference if you want a clean scalp and healthy hair, no matter what brand of shampoo you use. If I’m using sulfate-free, color-friendly hair products, I’m using Pureology.

I love this gloss so much! It makes my hair so soft and shiny. It deposits the most beautiful auburn color and gives my naturally red hair the oomph it needs, especially in winter when it's duller. The color does wash out over time as it's semi-perma...

Yes, she is worth every penny. I’m sorry. I waited for years and used so many other tools, but the Dyson airwrap gives me the best salon-like blowout at home, hands down. The dryer itself is phenomenal. It dries my hair so fast. I’m talking 6 minutes...

I use this hair oil one a week to help keep my scalp and ends healthy. My hair feels ultra soft and is super shiny when I use it. I leave it on for at least an hour before showering, but overnight is even better. I’ve noticed my hair is less frizzy, ...
