As I enter my mid-30s 🙈 it's time to start taking care of my skin. Here you'll find my favourite skin care alongside some of my regular use make-up items. This will likely grow and evolve over time as I am literally just starting out!
As we get older, we find ourselves spending more time and money on our skin, trying to see what works best for us. I'll share some of my favorite items I've found here.
I LOVE press-on nails and do a new set every 2 weeks! I’ve discovered that Glamnetic and OPI are my favorite brands because they are top-notch quality. Scroll through my different sections for various designs and styles. :)
I don't use lots of makeup, but these are some of my staples for the past couple of years that u can't live without! I have both name brands and drug store brands, i want to be able to have options for everyone interested :)
I struggled with hormonal cystic acne for years. These are the products that helped to treat my hyper pigmentation and scarring, without irritating my sensitive skin.
One thing I inherited from my Japanese grandma was the hair-straight as ever. These are the products I use to keep it up and to make it actually hold a curl. As someone who has chronic split ends and fine hair this is what has worked best for keeping my blonde blonde, and my long hair long.
Skincare products that work for my sensitive and eczema and acne prone skin! I also have allergies to many ingredients in a lot of skincare items, so a lot of these will be allergy inclusive as well!
I am a college student and am often on a tight budget, so you can expect to see AFFORDABLE skincare that is also EFFECTIVE! I splurge occasionally, so if you’re looking for something a little more high end, I’ll make sure to include 1-2 products in each category that are a little pricier :)
As someone with natural auburn hair (but loves to put purple highlights, dye their hair brown, add balayage etc etc LOL) I know makeup for us can be a bit annoying (even though I dye it away these days I still remember the struggle). But here are some products that are red hair approved! I would say also this does crossover with pale-skin because I'm super pale and its based on my experience.
The products that actually survived the trial phase. My personal graveyard of skincare is huge, but these are the only ones that cleared the hyperpigmentation and didn't cause a breakout. Just the essentials for a routine that works harder than I do.

All the bathroom necessities I like to keep handy for clean, smooth skin! A routine geared to the women who sometimes just can’t. This is a routine a loosely follow and it’s not daily. I have found that the benefits still work for me and the more consistent I am the better my skin looks and feels. I have sensitive skin and patches of eczema, so all these products have worked for me, but take these recs with a grain of salt considering your skin needs. I focus on brightening, hydrating, and treating my acne, some of which is hormonal (I am a woman).
As someone who works in the beauty industry and has had vivid hair colors for the past 10 years, these are my favorites to keep the color well-maintained while also keeping the hair healthy and strong!

Skip the trial and error that comes with vivid color and follow me instead 🎀

I totally get it, sometimes we miss a person or two that we forgot to get their Christmas gift. This is something that always happen to me every year, it might be the cousin that come to town with last minute notice, it might be my kid's teacher, my neighbor. I always have that somebody I forgot lol. I put together my most favorite last minute gift option that are affordable. Cause I personally think getting gifts for so many people that we love could quickly adds up and get expensive.
I have very low maintenance hair. Generally I wash it at night, plop it in a lightweight cotton towel and wake up with whatever curl pattern it decides with Curlsmith products. Love wavytalk if I am going to heat style.

I’ve tried a lot of products throughout the years and have found both high end and low end products I think should be in everyone’s makeup bag! I want to share some of my holy grails in hopes of helping someone find something right for them!
I’ve been doing makeup since I was 15 and now I’m a junior in college. I’ve struggled with acne and combination skin, so I’ve become pretty particular about the products I use.

Not only am I a tired toddler mom pushing forty, I'm also a former makeup artist and skincare specialist. As someone always on the hunt for holy grail products, here's what I've come across that I seriously love.
what I’m swapping into my routine when my face is dull and congested
these products are killer for light exfoliation of closed comodones or unexplainable little bumps.
I wouldn’t recommend for anyone with overly sensitive skin, consult your dermatologist (not on TikTok!) for that
As we age our skin changes. So our makeup routine has to change too! Cream products and hydrating products are what you want to look for when you are over the age of 30. As our skin matures it gets drier and (gulp!) fine lines stary appearing. Powders and products that are too thick can settle in those lines. For more mature skin, or textured skin, we want hydration and creamy, blendable products. If you're a woman in your thirties or forties, check out this list of beauty products meant to compliment our skin, and dare I say look younger. 😉
