Skincare!
These are the skincare staples that do the heavy lifting so I can keep my makeup routine minimal. Everything here focuses on hydration, protection, and keeping my skin happy, because when my skin feels good, I don’t feel the need to cover it up and STILL get compliments :)
Nothing by beats melting your face at the end of the night
Holy Hydration! Makeup Melting Cleansing Balm
My Sunday skin reset routine includes the cleanser, hyaluronic acid, and multi-peptide serun
The Ordinary
A lightweight, good smelling, hydrating face mist I use to calm my skin and add moisture without irritation. It feels refreshing, not sticky, and helps my skin look balanced and comfortable before applying moisturizer.
Hydrating Coconut Water Facial Toner - 12 oz.
This is my go-to daily SPF as someone with fair skin. It goes on completely clear, feels lightweight, and doesn’t leave a white cast, which makes it easy to wear every day, even on my “I’m barely wearing makeup” days.
Supergoop! Glowscreen SPF 40
My absolute GO-TO lip product! I seriously have multiples (one for my purse, one for my computer bag, and one that lives in the car). It’s a total lifesaver during New England winters, keeps my lips soft for hours, and yes… my partner is a big fan of...
Trader Joe’s Vanilla Lip Mask
This is my go-to body scrub for my Sunday “everything” shower. It honestly feels like I’m shedding off old skin and stepping out as a brand new woman. I love that it comes in so many scents, so I can match my mood, and I always pair it with a coordin...
Tree Hut - Shea Body Scrub
Makeup Routine
This is my short-and-sweet makeup lineup for days when I need to wear makeup but still want to look like myself. Everything here is low-effort, comfortable, and meant to enhance (not mask) so I feel put together without feeling overdone.
I keep a few of e.l.f.’s primers in rotation depending on how my skin is feeling. They’re lightweight, easy to wear, and help everything else sit better without feeling heavy or overdone.
e.l.f.'s Best Face Primers for Makeup
This is my go-to when I want that “my skin but better” glow. I use it on its own or mixed in, depending on the day, and it gives just enough radiance to look fresh without feeling like I’m wearing actual makeup. Perfect for days when I want to look a...
Halo Glow Liquid Filter Complexion Booster
My absolute favorite brand! I only buy their palettes 😍 I have so many of these palettes for different occasions. The spacey, fun ones are my go-to for parties and bartending, while the neutral palettes are perfect for holidays and date nights. I al...
Shadow Palettes | Eye Makeup
This is my secret weapon for making my lips look more defined without looking overdone. It’s creamy, easy to blend, and perfect for subtle shaping or pairing with a balm or lipstick when I want a little extra polish without going full glam.
Shop Creamy Lip Liners & Pencils | NYX Professional Makeup
Revolution is one of those brands that I can just slide the lipstick across my lips without looking in a mirror. It’s comfortable, not drying, and simple to throw on to instantly look more put together - perfect for days when I’m keeping everything e...
Revolution Lipstick | Long-lasting, Matte, Sheer & Liquid
This is my go-to mascara when I need my eyes to look alive and not have to worry about it lasting. It adds volume without feeling heavy or clumpy, and it’s one of the few mascaras I can wear all day without feeling like I need to scrub my lashes off ...
BADgal BANG! Volumizing Mascara
This is one of my favorite one-product-does-it-all staples. I use it on both lips and cheeks for an instant, natural flush that makes me look awake and put together without adding extra steps. Perfect for low-effort days when I want maximum impact wi...
Long-Lasting Liquid Cheek Tint & Stain
This setting spray does not play around. I’ve cried HARD while wearing this and my makeup didn’t go anywhere. It locks everything in without feeling heavy and still keeps my skin looking natural
