Finding the right products for curly hair can feel like an endless (and expensive) journey, especially with many brands promising to define, hydrate, and de-frizz. That’s why I created this curated list of my favorite curly hair products: everything here has been tested on my curls and consistently delivers real results. Whether you’re just starting your natural hair journey or looking to refine your current routine, this list includes moisturizing shampoos, co-washes, deep conditioners, curl creams, gels, and oils that work for a wide range of curl patterns (from wavy to coily). I’ve included clean beauty options and cult classics, with notes on what each product is best for: volume, definition, or moisture retention. You’ll find: Sulfate-free shampoos that cleanse without stripping Protein-rich deep conditioners that restore strength and bounce Leave-in conditioners and curl creams that keep curls hydrated and defined for days Lightweight oils and refresh sprays for reviving second- or third-day curls These are the products I recommend to friends, family, and anyone who asks me, “What do you use in your hair?” They’ve helped me confidently embrace my natural texture, and I hope they help you feel incredible about your curls too.

These products have been game changers in my skin care routine. I’ve tried so much over the years to fight the aging process, and skin changes over 50 are no joke. I honestly wish I had known about these products when I was in my 40s because I have a feeling my 50s skin would look a lot different.
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!!
