As a clean (and kind of lazy) girl, I'm looking for products that work without breaking the bank or causing a bunch of clutter in the bathroom. Every product on this list is something I have personally used and love. Most of these items are under $20...

Super easy to use!
Kitsch Satin Heatless Curling Set with 2 Scrunchies
My hair is so soft. I use it every time I wash my hair and I will buy this again!
Mielle Organics Rosemary Mint Leave-In Conditioner
I use this clarifying shampoo once a week. It does the job and smells great!
Replace like 50 regular bobby pins with these guys.
Kitsch Spiral Bobby Pins Hair Bun Maker 3Pcs
My current shampoo and conditioner (my husband also uses it!). Super high quality and makes my hair nice and soft. Also sold at some Costco locations!
Nexxus Therappe Shampoo & Conditioner 33.8oz
Trader Joe's really does have some beauty steals. This product works great for the price! Some may find the smell a little odd (I think it's the coconut oil, a little strong), but that scent does not last in my experience.
Shea Butter & Coconut Oil Hair Serum
Honestly works great for the price! I don't have that Dyson money and this does the trick. Use heat protectant!
REVLON One-Step Volumizer Hair Dryer Styler
Skin Care
Thank you, Nina Pool!
Palmer's Cocoa Butter Facial Oil Cleanser 6.5oz
Smells like a beach vacation, even in the midwest.
Method Body Wash Island Mist Hibiscus 18oz
I was skeptical about this one, but took a chance when it was on sale. I love it - the texture is amazing! My skin is glowing.
BYOMA Hydrating Milky Toner - 5.07 fl oz
A gentle retinol serum. I don't use it daily. A little goes a long way!
Pacifica Retinol Serum Face - Anti-Aging
I was pleasantly surprised when I tried this. Great overall color without looking too orange/fake. Just adds a little glow!
Insta Glow Illuminating Face Bronzer - Tanologist | Ulta Beauty
Self-tanner without the mess! Love that it is buildable over time and not orange.
Fair to Medium Daily Glow - Hydrating Gradual Tanning Lotion - Tanologist | Ulta Beauty
My every day go-to. Great for face, hands, and body. May be a little heavy for the summer months, but amazing in the midwest winter.
CeraVe Moisturizing Face & Body Cream with Pump for Normal to Dry Skin - 16 fl oz
Fragrance
Smells great and the scent lasts all day!
Sol de Janeiro Hair & Body Perfume Mist
One ingredient perfume - about as minimal and clean as one can get!
Not A Perfume
Makeup
A little splurge but worth! The pink sugar smells great and it's not too sticky.
Lip Butter Balm Treatment for Hydration + Nourishing Shine
I recently discovered skin tints and love the light coverage of this one. Enough to cover a little redness or dark spots, but not cakey at all. Bonus it has SPF!
My sister introduced me to this one. I like that the color of the one I got is tinted/sheer rather than being super bold. A wide range of colors too!
Maybelline Lifter Gloss Plumping Lip Gloss with Hyaluronic Acid - 5 Petal - 0.18 fl oz
I wear this almost daily and it has lasted almost a year so far!
Morphe Supreme Brow Sculpting And Shaping Wax
As an autumn, big fan of brown mascara.
Latte Brown Voluminous Lash Paradise Volume Mascara
Glossy, lovely, lasts a long time. So many colors to choose from, but the clear one is great, too.
My Main Fat Oil Lip Drip Vegan Lip Oil - NYX Professional Makeup | Ulta Beauty
A little goes a long way!
Bye Bye Under Eye Full Coverage Anti-Aging Waterproof Concealer - IT Cosmetics
Nails
All in one. Easy peasy.
Revlon Shape 'N' Buff Nail Buffer Block
Makes doing my nails at home super easy. Works like a charm!
168W UV LED Nail Dryer Lamp with 4 Timers
Super affordable gel polish with so many color options. I'm usually lazy and don't prep my nails well, and it lasts about 2 weeks depending on how much I beat my nails up :P
