I’m a mom over 40. My skin is not as clear and glowy as it was in my 20s so my make up had to adapt. Less powder, more cream and voila! This is the make up I wear and love.
This list is for the girls who love that freshly showered, soft skin, fluffy towel kind of vibe. Think clean linens, warm skin, a hint of baby powder, and a kiss of citrus or musk. These perfumes are powdery, airy, and oh-so-flirty perfect for brunch dates, cozy cuddles, or just smelling expensive while running errands. 💅🏽
Whether you love a skin scent that whispers or a breezy floral that lingers, these picks will have people leaning in and saying, “you smell sooo good, what is that?”
Spritz, fluff your hair, and prepare for compliments.
Dry, peeling lips turning every lipstick into a patchy mess — yeah, I lived that for years. Tried drinking more water, slathering on chapstick five minutes before, even skipping lip color altogether. This is the full routine I built piece by piece that finally gave me smooth, even lipstick application. If you're someone who avoids bold lip colors because they just highlight every flake, this lineup took me way too long to figure out so you don't have to.
These items are the best selling items from the month of January. From the best undereye cream to my toddlers favorite magnetic blocks for on the go that I always keeps in our diaper bag.

My fine hair breaks easily so using quality products with keratine is very helpful as well as lightweight serums that keep the moisture in my hair. Here are my go to items I use when I wash my hair.
Everything in my everyday makeup/beauty bag! As I get older I tend to keep it simple for day to day and love the routine! My goal is always to have natural, glowy skin, long lashes, and soft lips!

Enjoy it divaaaassss✨ 💁♀️💁🏻♀️💁🏼♀️💁🏽♀️💁🏾♀️💁🏿♀️💁♂️❤️❤️❤️
I have fine, fine hair. Which people love to point out btw. Sometimes it won't curl, sometimes it won't wave, and sometimes it won't stay straight! A LOT of products are too heavy or make it greasy, its a struggle to find the right products. Here are some I've tried and love and some I'm just trying and hoping for the best!
I have spent a lot of time (and money) finding the right products for my skin that hold good on their promises and work well with each other. I have combo skin, with hormonal acne, scarring, hyperpigmentation, and the start of wrinkles. These are the products that have had a huge impact on my skin and literally helped reverse some of the damage.
I love trying new skin care products and makeup. Learning what works on my skin so I can be comfortable in summer heat and winter cold builds my confidence and improves my overall health. Here are some of my new favorite go to products.
Skin so healthy you won't want to cover it with makeup. Products I use in both the PM and AM to wake up with the most radiant, plump, and moisturized skin that lasts through the day!

Walmart is a great store to shop for the holidays. These are my favorite beauty finds! This list has all my favorite bath and bodycare giftsets. It also has makeup in it as well!
I honestly don’t use all of these items on the daily. I included all of my favorite items for an “all out” makeup routine. I have tried most of the viral makeup items, but these are the ones that have really stuck out to me. I have dry and sensitive skin, but I am unfortunately on medication that makes my face sweat, so finding makeup that lasts all day is super tricky. These are the ones that have worked the best for me❤️
I don’t over complicate my skin care or makeup. When I find something that works, I don’t stray. These are my clean favorites that have really worked well for me.
We all love some nice, luxury makeup and cosmetics, right? However, we don't all have money to afford it, so I made this list where you'll find dupes for some luxury products that perform just as well, and some multi-purpose products that can serve you for many things⬇️
Some favorite Sephora finds for getting you to fall in love with your textured hair all over again. Let this be a straight and easy guide for your Sephora shopping cart when looking for haircare!
I just turned 50 in November. I probably waited too long to start paying attention to my skin. It wasn’t until my early 40’s that I started using more than a face wash and moisturizer. A good skin care routine really does make a huge difference! Check out what I’m loving right now!
Skin care and makeup products i personally love and that has helped me with acne btw my skin is VERY sensitive so i’ve had to use a lot of different products but these are what have helped me since my journey with acne started 2 years ago

From items containing SPF, to skin care and repair, to water and sweatproof options, it’s all here!
Im very basic and I know what works for me! I have super dark circles naturally and combo skin. I try to keep it natural looking while emphasizing the features I love about myself. Xoxo
Spending $8 on a single bath bomb that fizzes out in 30 seconds gets old fast. If you've been side-eyeing those DIY kits but weren't sure they'd actually work, I burned through a bunch so you don't have to. This is everything I use now, from the kits themselves to the molds, colors, and extras that make homemade bath bombs look like they came from a fancy shop. Grab what you need before holiday gifting season hits.
💋Lip contouring isn’t about faking fuller lips — it’s about sculpting, enhancing, and expressing. Whether you go bold or soft, matte or glossy, the right pencil can elevate your entire look. In this list, I’ve gathered the best tools and combos to master this art — from precise liners to perfect pairings, for every skin tone and style. Let’s contour with intention.👄
I love a little self-care moment, but I typically don’t have a ton of time for elaborate routines. All of these products are simple, easy to use, and help make me feel like a human.

I hope you find something you love within the things i love.

I’ve lived with combination skin for over 17 years, trying to find formulas that looks best, but don’t leave me looking too oily, or my skin dry and patchy. From beauty blenders to bronzers and beyond, here are all of my favorites!
As a Sephora lover since 2018, I’ve tested *hundreds* of products - these are only ones I keep repurchasing. Me (and my picky friends) swear by it!

Fast, forgiving makeup for days when sleep is a suggestion and coffee is a personality trait. These are low-effort, high-impact products that help you look alive in 5–10 minutes. Speaking from experience.
You know the drill. Someone texts ‘drinks tonight?’ at 4:47 PM and you're sitting in your car looking like you survived a wind tunnel. No time to go home, no mirror bigger than your phone screen, and somehow you need to look like you planned this all along. I spent two years figuring out what actually survives heat, fits in a glove box, and works in under five minutes. Here's every single product that's earned its spot.
Running an online business means stress breakouts and a wrecked skin barrier are basically part of the job description for me. La Roche-Posay is what finally got my sensitive skin under control. I discovered this line after years of trying products that irritated my skin. The gentle formulas actually work and they changed my complexion for the better. From the cleanser I use every single morning to the retinol I trust enough to actually stick with, everything on this list is a product I repurchase on repeat. If you have sensitive or reactive skin, start here!
Oily girls know how hard it is to keep makeup on in the humid summer months, let alone give a clean girl “no makeup, makeup” look. Here are all my recommendations for products that not only beat the summer heat but our oily slick skin too!! ❤️🔥
The foundational makeup look I use all the time that sits well, lasts long and looks cute on camera. I have SUPER sensitive, acne prone skin so I have to be very mindful about the products I use on my face. A lot of these products I need to find replacements for but because what I use has to go through so much of my personal testing, it takes a while.
my guide to a softer, gentler lifestyle. This list features my favorite comforting scents, luxurious body products and cozy bath essentials for ultimate relaxation!
I learned to do my own nails, you can too! I got tired of how damaged my nails were from nail techs quickly using an e-file and shaving my nail down too far. Not to mention the time and money spent! For the price of 2-3 gel manis, I bought everything I need to do it at home.
These are perfumes I’ve actually owned or have actually smelled from friends and family. Anyone that knows me knows that I LOVE to smell good and I mean who doesn’t lol. I only recommend what I’ll actually use so trust me you guys are in good hands😉
Wearing the same fragrance every single day felt like wearing the same outfit on repeat — nobody said anything, but I knew. Once I figured out how to pick a scent based on how I actually felt that morning, compliments started rolling in and I genuinely felt more like myself. Built for anyone who owns one perfume and secretly knows they've outgrown it — this took me a full year of sampling so you can skip straight to the good stuff.
The last thing I want to do in my early morning routine is stress over how my makeup looks. For my day-time hours in the office, I prefer the "no makeup" makeup look. So, over the years, I curated this list of products that I swear by with products that are user friendly and can be applied quickly and give me that effortless look.
These are the most talked-about acne cleansers on TikTok that actually deliver results, not just hype. From salicylic acid to gentle barrier-repair formulas, these help reduce breakouts, unclog pores, and keep your skin clear without destroying your skin barrier.
Here's a collection of foundations, primers, makeup sprays, and powders I like to rotate through! I have dry skin, so I enjoy either a luminous or matfying base, depending on the makeup I want.

Gentle, low-tox beauty and wellness essentials for sensitive skin.
These are simple products I actually use that support calm, balanced skin without irritation.
I focus on:

• Easy, minimal routines
Start with a few and keep it simple.

Here are the essentials every teenage girl should keep in her purse, backpack, or car for those little emergencies that always seem to happen at the worst time.
As someone with oily skin who loves switching between glowy and matte looks, I'm sharing the best high-quality options, including excellent vegan and acne-safe picks. My personal favorites that I recommend are any Mary Kay products and the EcoTools brushes (my holy grails!). They give you the best finish ever and last all day (especially with powders)! Sidenote: There should be some vegan options for those who prefer or use vegan makeup/tools. Also, all the sections are in the order in which you should complete the routine!

My everyday ‘go to’ make up. When I turned 30, I decided life was too short to use anything but the best makeup and fragrances.
