Glow Goals: Skincare I Swear By
Skincare products that give you that fresh, radiant glow — healthy, happy skin that looks effortlessly beautiful every day.
This stuff is magic. I use it every night and wake up with soft, plump, moisturized lips.
Lip Sleeping Mask Nourish & Hydrate
This is my go-to daily sunscreen + moisturizer in one. It’s super lightweight, no white cast, no breakouts, and gives the prettiest natural glow. It’s Korean skincare at its best — hydrating, gentle, and protective without feeling heavy.
belif The True Cream Aqua Bomb SPF 45 Korean Moisturizer Face Sunscreen
It actually is the bomb. I can’t say enough good things about this moisturizer. I live in the desert and it really hydrates my skin, giving me a nice beautiful glow. My skin has never looked so radiant.
belif The True Cream Aqua Bomb with Hyaluronic Acid and Niacinamide
This is my holy grail when my skin is feeling dry, dull, or just tired. I use it at night and wake up with skin that’s bouncy, dewy, and radiant like I actually got 8 hours of sleep and drank all my water (even when I didn’t). I also sometimes use a ...
F-Balm™ Electrolyte Waterfacial
This is one product I always repurchase. My skin just isn’t the same without it. It keeps my face smooth, clear, and breakout-free without any peeling or irritation. I used to struggle with acne, and this serum has made truly cleared my skin. It even...
Cos De BAHA Salicylic Acid 4% Exfoliating Serum
I’ve tried so many things over the years, but this one actually made a difference. It’s helped smooth out my fine lines and just makes my skin look firmer and more alive. I feel like I’m glowing because of it. It’s not fancy or expensive, but it work...
Tree of Life Retinol Serum, Skin Smoothing
I honestly don’t know what kind of magic is in the Paula’s Choice Liquid Exfoliant, but it works so well. I just pat it into my face and neck with my fingers—no rinsing—and it smooths and evens out my skin instantly. My skin feels so soft and glowy a...
Paula's Choice
I used to be the worst at picking my pimples. I’d go in with my nails, dirty fingers, and just make everything worse. I didn’t have a ton of scarring, but it always made the breakout spread or last longer. Since working in the beauty industry and rea...
Pimple Extractor
I don’t know what magic they put in these things, but the glow is real. Whenever I have an important night out or a big event, I’ll pop one on before doing my makeup, and it gives me the most hydrated, dewy skin that makes everything sit better. They...
facial sheet mask
Okay, yes—it’s an investment. But hear me out: it’s 100% worth it. I’ve had mine for over eight years (yes, really), and it’s still going strong. I use it about once a week, and it gives my skin the most beautiful glow. It’s like a mini facial at hom...
FOREO LUNA™ play plus 2 I Level up your skincare game
This moisturizer is so good. Lightweight, hydrating, and just makes your skin feel instantly refreshed. I love using it day or night—it sinks in beautifully, layers perfectly under makeup, and gives that healthy, bouncy-skin feeling without being hea...
Green Tea Seed Hyaluronic Cream | Face Moisturizer
I used to think scrubbing hard was the answer—buying all those cleansers with little beads in them for exfoliation—and then wondered why my skin was always dry and breaking out. Turns out, being gentle is everything. This cleanser doesn’t strip my sk...
Clean Facial Cleansers
This balm is my go-to for melting off makeup at the end of the day. It’s so soothing, smells amazing, and actually feels like skincare while it’s working. I love that it’s made with real ingredients—papaya enzymes and all—so it doesn’t just take off ...
Papaya Sorbet Enzyme Cleansing Balm
Effortless & Natural Makeup
Simple, minimal makeup essentials to enhance your natural beauty with a light, fresh look — perfect for that “just woke up like this” vibe.
This is literally the only lip product I use. I swipe it on my lips (lined + filled), dab a little on my cheeks for blush, and even use it on my eyes for a soft, natural tint. It gives the perfect no-makeup, makeup look — super cohesive, effortless, ...
SEPHORA COLLECTION Retractable Rouge Gel Lip Liner
I’m obsessed with this one. It has a super fine tip that makes it easy to fill in your brows naturally (no harsh lines!), and the brush on the other end is perfect for blending and fluffing things out.
Retractable Brow Pencil - Waterproof - SEPHORA COLLECTION
The brush is amazing, it gives you crazy length, it never flakes, and it just makes your lashes look so clean and lifted. One tip—I always buy the travel size. I don’t wear mascara every day, and I travel a lot, so the mini version lasts me forever a...
Unlocked Instant Extensions Mascara
It is actually volumizing—like, not the fake kind where they say “volume” and your lashes look the same. This one delivers in one swipe. It makes my lashes look instantly thicker and fuller, and it’s super high quality. If you’re looking for real vol...
Perfect Strokes Universal Volumizing Mascara - Rare Beauty
A tiny bit goes a long way, it brightens beautifully, and with the right skin prep and setting powder, it stays put and looks flawless. I just use it in the spots that need a little coverage, and that’s it. Once I really started taking care of my ski...

I’m always chasing the glow—and this stuff delivers every single time. It gives you the most beautiful, natural-looking radiance that just lights up your whole face. Not sparkly, not greasy—just that healthy, dewy, lit-from-within kind of glow. You c...
Lumi Glotion Natural Glow Enhancer, Face and Body
I don’t wear foundation anymore because this does it all. Just the tiniest bit goes a long way—especially if you’re taking care of your skin. It melts right in, evens out your tone, covers redness, color corrects, and gives you that healthy, natural ...
CC+ Cream Full-Coverage Foundation with SPF 50+
It really gives you that instant plump, fresh-faced look that I’m always chasing. The electrolyte mix really makes a difference—it doesn’t just set your makeup, it revives your skin. Everything melts together beautifully and stays in place, but your ...
Plump Finish Makeup Setting Spray
For Thick, Shiny, Healthy Hair
Honestly, I never used to care much about my hair. I just figured it knew what to do on its own. But I’ve learned that nourishing it and showing it some love really makes a difference. I’m officially on a hair-growing journey—manifesting long, luscio...
I met a model-slash-hairstylist who told me: “Use professional quality products—they cost more for a reason.” She was right. This shampoo is super lightweight, lasts forever (you only need a tiny bit), and leaves my hair so soft, thick, and healthy. ...
Dark Oil Lightweight Shampoo
I used to just use shampoo, but adding the conditioner changed everything. My ends are softer, healthier, and I’ve had way fewer split ends. This conditioner leaves my hair smooth, shiny, and it smells so good. A little goes a long way, and using bot...
Dark Oil Lightweight Conditioner
Living in the desert, my hair needs that extra moisture—and this leave-in is everything. I use it right after the shower to lock in hydration and protect my hair from dryness and heat. It’s lightweight, super nourishing, and fits perfectly into my ro...
Potion 9 Leave-In Conditioner
This brush is a must for healthy hair. It detangles without pulling, breaking, or damaging your strands—especially when your hair’s wet and most vulnerable. It’s super gentle, and somehow glides through knots like magic. I’ve noticed way less breakag...
The Original Mini
This little tool has become a daily ritual. I use it in the shower while shampooing to really massage my scalp and help cleanse, and I also use it on dry hair every morning to boost circulation and support hair growth. It feels so good and stimulates...
