items When it's our own money we are spending, it's just different! The recommendations throughout social media can be hard to decipher between gifted collabs, sponsorships, and even trendy products. As someone who considers herself hard to be influenced (...

Sensitive skin-friendly
A very clean, minimal floral scent. I get very overwhelmed with scent in the summer, but fell in love with this at L'Occitane. It has Wisteria extract and is a delicate formula. Much more lightweight than my usual body lotion. Perfect for hot weather...
L'Occitane Glycine Perfumed Body Lotion
My ultimate fav hand cream. I have been using different hand creams and have come to the conclusion that there really is nothing like this one. I am an artist and I also garden. My hands are constantly in need of moisture. Immediately picked one up a...
L'Occitane Shea Butter Hand Cream
Running through body wash like water and I realized, I should look for soap bars! My mom highly suggested this Dove beauty bar meant for sensitive skin. I have been absolutely loving it and can't say that I'll ever go back to anything else.
Dove Beauty Bar Soap Sensitive, 8 Bars
The most gentle exfoliating bodywash! I used to use those korean exfoliating towels and always scraped off my skin. Never understood why people preferred it! It's much too harsh on me and my skin has visible red dots from the blood and irritation. Sw...
Naturium The Smoother Glycolic Acid Exfoliating Body Wash
Scent
Trying new scents for the summer!
Smells so fresh, sweet, and like a vacation. It's different from your average tropical fragrance. There is no sunscreen-like coconut in this which is why I love it so much. This is going to be my go-to scent for the summer!
OUAI Santorini Hair and Body Mist with Honeysuckle Peach
Kilian does peach right EVERYTIME. An incredibly juicy peach scent that intensifies with honey. Becomes syrupy. It then mellows out and smells of fuzzy peaches and flowers on your skin. Really love the dry down! Unsure if I'll be able to use it regul...
Kilian Forbidden Games Eau de Parfum Travel Spray with Honey & Peach
An incredibly fresh, sophisticated, and chic scent. Wood Sage & Sea Salt people upgrade to Cypress & Grapevine. Woody, but not artificially. It smells incredibly natural. It's intense and deep, and very wearable. Not for me, but my boyfriend'...
Cypress & Grapevine Cologne Intense Travel Spray - Jo Malone London | Sephora
Skincare
Very reactive, highly sensitive skin. I can't use more than half of what's out in the beauty market. Here are my picks.
Summertime means I have to leave the face creams! That being said, I still need hydration so I opted for using a lightweight milky essence instead. This would go perfectly well under makeup without making me into a greaseball for summer makeup looks.
ATOBARRIER365 Milky Hydro Essence
Cooling is what I need in the hot weather. The weather has suddenly picked up into the 90s already. Spring was so fleeting! Immediately switching to this soothing gel cream formula that will be gentle enough for my skin.
ATOBARRIER365 Cooling Hydro Soothing Gel-Cream Moisturizer with Ceramides for Skin Moisture Barrier
The best fungal acne-safe barrier for night time! I like to use this after retinol or even when my skin feels excessively sensitive from allergens. My skin gets itchy and rashy often and this will protect it from the elements and form a complete seal...
La Roche-Posay Cicaplast Balm B5 Soothing Therapeutic Multi Purpose Cream
The facial spray I cannot live without! It's the most calming spray with zero active ingredients. Perfect for my sensitive skin.
Avene Thermal Spring Water
Hypochlorus acid spray with a great price with the sale! I was going to get the Tower 28 one because I love how it does not have the strange pool water/bleachy scent. However, I am never too good for a well priced product with the same purpose! This ...

Doing Project Pan this year - just grabbed one thing
Finally a sensitive skin-friendly setting spray! I've had my eyes on this because my makeup loves to melt off, but I have such sensitive skin. I was interested after looking at the CitySet's claims that it is alcohol-free. I have already been using i...
