The ultimate high-performance beauty lineup. Skincare and makeup favorites from Rhode, Laneige, and MAC Cosmetics for a clean, glowing, and long-lasting everyday look.
Just because I don't show my real face, doesn't mean I don't want to feel my best. It's taken a LONG time for me to discover what skin care works best for my oily skin.
some of my favorite skin care products of all time 🫧 as someone who used to have acne. i also have eczema and sensitive skin. my skin is combination, but mainly more on the oily side
Tis the dry season and just walking out in the cold weather drys out my skin here are my go to skin products that help conquer the dry skin in colder months or any day of the year
Thick, wavy hair that takes three hours to air dry and turns into a lion's mane the second you touch a regular towel. Sound familiar? I spent way too long wrestling with frizz, heat damage, and products that promised smooth results but delivered straw. This is the full lineup that actually changed how my hair dries, styles, and holds up between washes. Grab what you need before humidity season hits again.
just a no-brainer and compliment-getter (proven!) fragrance and lotion picks. by all means, am not an expert. i just love perfumes so much, and would love to share my obsession with the world<3
as a girly in high school; it took me a WHILE to find a routine that actually made me feel, and look good. from makeup to hair, these recs are what made me feel my absolute best. trust me when i say these products are life changing
Personal beauty favourites, from general brands to specific products. Mostly mid priced, globally available products that I've come to after years of trying out stuff and working in the beauty sales industry.
For reference, my skin type is oily/dehydrated, clogs quickly with enlarged pores, but isn't sensitive.
These are my skincare must haves! I always get complimented on my skin and I look way younger than I actually am. Some of these are medical grade and that means expensive, and some are super clean and less expensive. I have personally used all of these products and love them!
these are makeup products i personally tried but didn’t keep in my collection. i share honest feedback about texture, performance and overall experience, explaining why they didn’t work for me.
These are my ride or die perfumes, that aren’t you’re standard perfumes you see everywhere nowadays. 🧼
All are perfumes that are in my current collection and I’ve purchased with my own momey

A curated, SIMPLE, derm- approved routine that took me from breakouts to glowing skin - once again SIMPLE and effective 😘 My before and after pics are in the thumbnail.
When it comes to makeup, I’m a simple girl. I stick to the basics, so that means I have my tried and true products that, once I find them, I tend to stay loyal to. Now, I’m sharing them with you!
Must haves for those who want and an even skin tone and improve hyperpigmentation on the face and body. I will update my notes as I see improvements in my skin!

Who said you can't be a baddie on a budget. No need to spend a hefty penny on name brand products, I got you covered bestiee! Here's a list to help you build the bare basics.
I recently started the abbey yung method on my hair, I had a lot of damage from bleach and my hair needed some help with moisture and repair! Also after having my sons I had a lot of post partum baby hairs and wanted everything to grow healthier. this is everything I use and I’ve noticed a huge change. I have 2B hair and my ends can be on the dry side and I can frizz easily. My frizz has become minimal and my ends are even more smooth
All her recs in a quick list format! The cost is around $300 for all items (some being interchangeable, not all are necessary to recreate her base!)… but whew her face card never declines.
Most can be purchased from Ulta with a few exceptions
The order of this skincare routine list is the order in which I apply these skincare products💕 After 10 years of skincare, this is the best list of products I’ve used thus far.
for the longest time i was a one perfume kind of girl loyal to “a thousand wishes” from bath & body works. it was sweet cozy and felt like my signature. but over time i started exploring beyond that comfort zone and i fell in love with fragrances that make me feel a little more grown a little more me. these perfumes are still just as comforting and long lasting but they carry something extra: elegance confidence and personality. now instead of just one scent i have a little collection that tells my story. ✨🌸
I used to go crazy with makeup to cover up hyper-pigmentation from acnes. I tried all the skincare trends. As I get into my 30s, my skin is not ok with heavy chemicals anymore. This list focuses on light and clean makeup and skincare products that are appropriate for aging skin.
My all-time-favorite makeup products as a beginner. At the moment I'm a big fan of the "no-makeup" makeup look, so a lot of the lipstick shades are very subtle and natural, but they make a big difference 😊
i have used so many products over the past few years to not only get length, but also keep it healthy as it grows. these are the products that i have found work the best for both

My busy schedule must haves for my hair from tools to products! I flex between wash and no wash days so the list covers all the things to have good hair every day!

One thing I love is minimalism, more so in having only the items I love and use! With makeup I like consistency and knowing I have a simple routine makes this process so fun! I want my makeup to look effortless with some room to look more elevated for life events. From bridal showers to weddings, birthday brunch and dinners to a date night. Easy to use with affordable options. I love how looking elevated can be simple!

Colder weather is here! That means dryer skin. I am in my 30’s and while I don’t have mature skin yet— it’s headed my way!

My hair care for all things wavy/curly hair. I do diffuse my hair on occasion but I mostly let it air dry. I can't recommend these specific beachwaver and other products enough. These have brought my curls back after heat damage.
Gentle, effective skin care products I love and keep repurchasing. These favorites focus on hydration, comfort, and simple routines that feel good on the skin.
As a mom of boys, I have had to develop a low maintenance routine. Plus, I spend a lot of time outdoors and in the sun, so it is so important to have products that protect my skin and hair.

These products work together to lock in moisture and restore that healthy glow. Save this list or share your thoughts in the comments 😊
What i use daily on my 40+ mature acne prone skin.
My tip: tap or press products into skin. I tap my face with my fingertips to kind of wake my pores up to encourage absorption.
I have been on a journey of doing my own nails for the last few months and it’s been SO FUN. I’ve strictly been using DND gel because that’s the only gel I’ve found so far that actually works on my nails, but I will be sharing regular paint colors as well that I’ve loved in the past for fall!
Makeup I have been using for 5+ years and I’ve tried a lot of makeup. I was a teacher and wearing it for a long time, so I needed makeup that actually stayed on my face, but gave me a soft glam look. These are my top tried and true recommendations.

Makeup Products that work best for Asian features!! In America, sometimes the most trendy products don’t have Asian Americans included. This page is to help Asians navigate to the best products.
My go-to makeup products that I can't live without. Ranging from affordable to high-end. I started doing makeup around middle school and it took me a long time to figure out and find good makeup. New makeup products come out daily so I always find a new favorite. I have combination skin (oily T-zone and dry skin) so it's hard to find products suitable to my skin and that stick. These are some of my favorites that I always have in my restroom. Some of these makeup products are "dupes" for higher-end products and some are high-end products. I believe it's okay to have a good mix of both because having an affordable concealer and a high-end setting powder can lead to a perfect base, AND last you all day.
This list is perfect for fellow minimalists who want products that work, feel light, and hydrate. Hi I'm Laura! I am a minimalist when it comes to make-up and skincare, and am someone with combination skin. These are all products that I am obsessed with and have been re-buying over the years. In each description I will be completely honest about how the products have worked for me, how they've felt, and if they've brought any changes.
People with curl hair know about the culture-- I do my best to not be caught outside lackin! My own curls are very fine and soft, and these products have worked wonders in helping me fall in love with my own texture.
Spent two years watching my hair snap off at the ends and blaming genetics — turns out I just wasn't deep conditioning properly. Once I started sitting under a bonnet dryer with the right products, my hair went from straw to actual silk in about six weeks. This list is for anyone with dry, brittle, or color-treated hair who's tired of slathering on masks that never seem to absorb. Took me a lot of trial and error so you can skip straight to what works.
Anyone who knows me knows I love a rhode lip tint! But there are a lot more products I’d love to try from rhode so I figured I’d put them in a list and share them, both as a reminder to myself and to
This is a list of hair products that I use all the time and carefully picked out for myself, and now I want to share it with everyone. (My shampoo, conditioner, and hair mask are on my shower essentials list 🙂)
I have very dry and sensitive skin. I thought face makeup would be impossible for me after many failed attempts. After trial and error over the years this is what I found works best for me. These don’t leave me cakey or leave a heavy feeling on my face!
