I’m a self care girl through and through! If you are looking for some AMAZING skin care products you’ve come to the right place! I’ve got dry skin and HS so it’s very important for me to take care of my skin and appearance.
As a SAHM I used to think that there was no point in getting ready. I was home all day, catering to the kids, and I didn’t need to feel “pretty.” Boy, was I wrong. It’s not about feeling pretty it’s about feeling like you’ve taken a moment to yourself so you can tackle the day. Last minute play dates, sure! Quick trip to the store, no problem! We are a single income family so making sure my makeup is budget friendly is a must. Especially since I am getting ready more times than not these days!!

✨ Korean skincare has become one of my go-to rituals because of how effective yet gentle it is. Some of my favorite products include lightweight hydrating essences, rich moisturizers that leave my skin glowing, and serums packed with ingredients like snail mucin, hyaluronic acid, and green tea. I love how K-beauty focuses on nourishing the skin barrier while giving that healthy, radiant “glass skin” look. It’s the perfect balance of self-care and results. 🌸

Serum: Targets concerns like brightening, hydration, or fine lines with concentrated actives. Moisturizer: Locks in all the hydration to keep your skin supple and bouncy. Sunscreen: Shields from UV damage to maintain brightness and prevent dark spots. Sheet mask: Delivers an instant boost of hydration for that radiant, glass-like finish. Follow these steps daily, and your skin will look glowy, healthy, and effortlessly luminous.
5 months ago, I had a damaged skin barrier because I was using any product I found on Tiktok, without checking if it was compatible with my skin type. After doing some research, I discovered I have sensitive skin, so I shouldn't have been using a lot of acids & retinols (and I was…ALOT). So, here is a list of all the products that worked for my skin.
