These are what I personally love for my dehydrated skin
My go to products that I use for my skin in the fall! I rotate between the products on a daily basis, based on each day's needs, keeping in mind my skin concerns of dryness, dark circles, and protecting my skin barrier.
these are products i highly recommend. everything i listed i use myself and is a part of my core routine! sephora links for all that are available (which is basically 95% of the items)
My current skincare favorites that focus on hydration, minimizing pores, brightening & repairing the skin barrier! Perfect for anyone that uses a retinoid!
I have always struggled with my wavy/curly hair as it is so dry all the time and my hair has either looked weighed down and greasy looking, or too undefined and frizzy. It has always been a struggle finding the right products to use (And I have tried ALOT.) Since switching to these products, my hair is so defined, soft and not frizzy! Although I am still at the beginning of my healthy natural hair journey, this routine has made me confident enough to go outside with my natural hair.

I have a deep love for this Polish beauty brand. Including body, face and hair care, I find it's all consistently high quality, while being super affordable. Anything from the goats milk range is an instant win for me, don't be put off by the name, it doesn't smell like goats cheese or anything like that. The whole range has super light weigh products, great for sensitive skin and the smell is so so nice.

As a former makeup artist, I’ve tried it all...high-end, drugstore, and everything in between. These $20 or less makeup must-haves are the ones that actually perform and earn a permanent spot in my kit!!
Hair care should always be a crucial step when it comes to self care. My hair is a part of my identity and I always make sure to take care of it with the utmost care. These higher end products are 100% worth the cost. They will make your hair soft, silky and way easier to maintain by targeting issues from the root cause (pun intended).
My favorite Korean Beauty must haves by far this year! I love these products and I hope you will give them a try. I do have sensitive/combo skin. None of these have caused me acne if anything they have helped make my skin more clearer especially the cleanser!

I do a lot of hair. 😅 between my own, two girls with very long hair, and my son. Feels like i spend an hour on hair every time we need to leave the house 🙃
As a professional makeup artist with a large number of regular clients and at the same time as a student, finding quality and reliable makeup products that will meet the needs of my clients and be quick and easy to use becomes crucial. My recommendations are products that I have personally tested and use on my clients, to help you achieve outstanding results even when you don't have enough time for complex makeup routines.
Sensitive skin requires extra care and attention, but with the right products, you can nourish and protect it without irritation. Whether your skin is prone to redness, dryness, or breakouts, using products specifically formulated for sensitive skin can make all the difference.
These must-have products are designed to cater to even the most delicate skin types, offering protection and relief from environmental stressors, while maintaining the skin’s essential barrier.
From gentle cleansers and soothing moisturizers to calming serums and treatments, the right sensitive skin products can help restore your skin’s natural balance, leaving it feeling healthy, hydrated, and calm.

“My go-to skincare picks that keep my routine simple, glowing, and consistent. Everything here is tested and loved by me — from brightening serums to refreshing toners.”
soft skin & signature scents.
curating my favorite body care rituals & fragrances that make everyday feel like self-love. think whipped butters, warm florals, & clean girl vibes. 🤍✨
Acne-prone, combination, aging skin carries its own kind of weather—patches that shine, patches that flake, and those little storms that rise up just when you think the skies have finally cleared. After a long stretch of trial and error, I finally wrangled my skincare into something steady, something that feels like a truce. And once that foundation settled, it felt natural—necessary, even—to rethink how I was painting the rest of my face.
These days I’ve come to love the freedom of going foundation-free. Letting my skin breathe has become its own quiet luxury. Still, there’s something tender about adding a wash of color to my cheeks, waking up my eyes so they don’t disappear behind the day’s fatigue, and pulling on a bold red lip like slipping into my favorite boots—steadying, just a little bit brave.
What I’m learning is that makeup doesn’t have to be a mask; it can be a companion. Whether you prefer a bare-faced morning, that hushed “no-makeup makeup” glow, or a full-face ritual that turns the bathroom mirror into a small stage, there are ways to build a routine that honors your skin instead of fighting it. These choices can fit almost anyone—tiny adjustments, small mercies for skin that has lived, changed, healed, and keeps on going.
There’s a kind of comfort in that, like finding a shade of yourself you didn’t realize you’d misplaced.
I’ve tried so many beauty products, but these are the gems that truly deliver! From hair care that gives effortless waves to skincare and makeup that’s become part of my everyday routine, these recs are the real deal. If you're into finding products that are actually worth the hype, this list is for you. Let me know which ones you’ve tried or if you have any faves I should check out!
I'm listing my all-time favorites, trying to keep my most current at the top!When I'm looking for new products, I try to buy as many samples and kits rather than full sizes if possible before committing to paying full price. If there's anything you see that you're like “hmmm…,” see if there's something like that or go get a sample. Most of this is found at Sephora with the exception of some skincare products. Also HIGHLY recommend checking out Dermstore's kits; they have incredible deals on full-sized products. I get one every time they update.Don't forget to see if any of these are HSA/FSA eligible!
If you are purchasing any Lattafa perfumes off TikTok please be sure the seller is Lattafa there are to many fakes I pinned Lattafa on the recs when you click but always double check 🙏
