I’m not totally great at being a girly girl. I don’t do the whole skincare thing. I have no idea how to contour or do a full face of makeup. But I do know what makes me feel good and beautiful and man do I love to smell good. Here’s some of the products that make me feel sexy, seen and confident in my own skin.
I have super curly hair and it’s been a journey to find what to use on it. I don’t come from a household where people have curly hair so it’s been a solo journey. These products I actively use and they help define my curls and make them last longer.
Como antropóloga y migrante que trabajó y vivió en desierto, nevado, selva, pantanal y más, a mis 41 creé mi propia lista de productos favoritos. No importa donde esté, me funcionan, me hacen sentir calma y limpia, y me regresan a mi cuerpo.
The last thing I want to do in my early morning routine is stress over how my makeup looks. For my day-time hours in the office, I prefer the "no makeup" makeup look. So, over the years, I curated this list of products that I swear by with products that are user friendly and can be applied quickly and give me that effortless look.
I wanted to share my favorite skincare products that I use every day for both my morning and night routine! These products are perfect if you have normal to dry skin and are looking for extra hydration. Since adding them to my routine, my skin has stayed soft, smooth, and healthy-looking. I love how they keep my skin feeling hydrated all day and night without feeling heavy. If you’re looking to boost your skin’s moisture and maintain a soft glow, definitely give these a try! 💧

I have spent years searching for the best skincare products to help with my sensitive skin. As a teenager I had really bad acne and struggled to manage it – I tried everything! It was so frustrating, I tried Proactive and a bunch of other trendy products. But it only made things worse. I was finally able to fix my skin barrier and heal my acne scars a few years ago with just a few products. I am obsessed with Korean skincare and medical grade skincare – it's the only thing that won't irritate my sensitive skin. So here are my favorite skincare products for sensitive, acne prone skin! Hope these help you in your morning and nighttime routines :)

I am not so much into makeup per se, but I am very much into just defining my eyes. I wouldn't even call it makeup at this point. It's a necessity. On top of that, I have very sensitive eyes. I only used to use Lakme eyeliner for decades, but for the past 7+ years, I started experimenting with the whole deal! Eyebrows, eye shadows, eyeliner, kajal, mascara and the whole she-bang and would love to help fellow sensitive-eyed women/girls who love to define their eyes and experiment with different looks!

Hi there! I am a licensed cosmetologist in Tampa Florida! I’ve been on the other side of the chair and always wanted my stylist to have my best interest and not just try and sell me crappy hair care for the 💸💸💸. That’s why now as a stylist I want my clients to invest in their hair care with products that I know and trust. Everything you see on my list is exactly what I use at home. Hair care and hair health is important to me just as it is to you. 2026, the year for caring about your hair. Let’s get it🫶
these are the products i tested to help improve the appearance of post-acne marks and uneven skin texture. i focused on gentle ingredients that support skin renewal while keeping my oily skin calm and hydrated.
I believe my hair is 2a-2b; it stays pretty wavy but not super tight. Working in the humidity and heat, my hair stays very frizzy and tangled. I've found some great products that combat frizz and protect my hair from the sun. And as someone who box dyes her hair about every 4 months, I need to have haircare that repairs my hair while keeping my color safe.
If you have oily skin, these products are going to help you so much. I’ve been going between these products in each section for quite some time now and I won’t ever not love them. They’re mostly affordable but the ones that aren’t are definitely worth the price
I’ve hand‑picked the most festive beauty treats to keep your skin radiant, your makeup flawless, and your hair glowing all season. Highlights include NARS’s Light Reflecting Advanced Skincare Foundation, NYX’s Bubble Blending Makeup Brush, and Better Fragrance’s Marshmallow Coconut Eau de Parfum.

Shop this list for products that are great for acne-prone skin AND that will cover your blemishes!

These items will give you the confidence your looking for in your makeup routine! This list is very similar to my sensitive skin list because acne-prone skin and sensitive skin go hand in hand!
