I got no love for it 😉😂 That's why this list is so great! But really, it is! If it's worth recommending, truly WORTHY, it's on this list! Hope you enjoy!

Think lightweight foundations that don’t cake, multitasking cream blushes, and clean, mom-approved beauty staples that make getting ready feel doable again. Because even on the busiest mornings, we deserve to feel confident and put together 💛

idk if this helps but my friends tell me that my makeup is super natural and enhances my features well. These are my essentials for an everyday, dewy look. I like soft features since my hair is so dark, lifted but NOT clumped lashes, light contouring so it looks like my face is snatched, and a soft sheen on the high points that's not chunky glitter. I do have blush blindness, and like building layers for depth.
Have you ever scrolled through your social media and wished you looked like that or had the outfit she had etc? It’s so easy to compare ourselves to other people and be unsatisfied and insecure with ourselves.
However, your biggest superpower is realizing that we are able to make it happen for us. What matters is deciding to make a change and sticking to it instead of just spending time wishing it happened to us magically.

My hair journey has been a long one, and it’s still not over (sigh). However, as I have progressed, I have learned many things. I have tried an ungodly number of products, from those that promise growth to expensive salon shampoos to “special” brushes meant to define my curls. After a lot of money wasted, I am finally on a consistent hair routine. These products and supplements are ones I have been using for years now, and are in-between budget-friendly and expensive. Some items lean a little more one way or the other. But I promise, worth it!!

Smelling good as a lady is not just about personal hygiene—it’s a form of self-expression and confidence.
