Nearly my entire makeup brush collection (I'll boldly say 99.9%) is affordable drugstore makeup brushes. All you need is a stellar brush and good techniques to look like a million bucks. This list is everything that I love from my personal collection that is not discontinued. I have top tier recommendations for each part of the face from a variety of brands.
Maintaining a pixie cut can be a full-time job! These are my must-haves for keeping it sleek, shiny, and laid. If you love that effortless “fresh from the salon” look without leaving home, this list is for you.
We all know the "Everything Shower" is more than just a routine—it’s a weekly mental reset. To get that post-spa glow and feel like a brand new person, you need products that actually work and smell like a dream. I’ve rounded up 30 essentials from the best US beauty spots that will turn your bathroom into a luxury sanctuary. Whether you’re looking to fix your hair game or just want the softest skin of your life, these are the picks that actually live up to the social media hype.
If you've ever stood in front of a magnifying mirror at midnight picking at something that wasn't ready, squeezing a cystic bump that you knew you should leave alone, or digging at an ingrown hair that's been trapped under a scab for two weeks — this list was built for you. This is the routine I put together for skin that never gets a break: hormonal cystic acne, chronic ingrown hairs made worse by years of tweezing and plucking, distorted follicles that send hairs sideways under the skin instead of out, dead skin buildup that blocks the exit, inflammation from electrolysis, and the exhausting cycle of treating one condition only to flare another. The kind of skin that makes you cancel plans, over-touch your face out of anxiety, and pile on heavy coverage that oxidizes by noon and somehow makes everything worse. Every product on this list was chosen because it does two things at once — covers what's there and treats what's underneath, so your makeup is never just makeup. It's working for you all day. The goal isn't a full face. It's skin that looks calm, feels protected, and finally lets you walk out the door without thinking about it again.
My favorite skin care products for my oily and sensitive skin! products i still use on a daily basis or rotate throughout my routine. Ranging from high and low brands 😶🌫️🫧🧖🏾♀️
Making this list because it’s so HARD to find the right hair products for your hair type!! This list will be what has worked for me with fine straight hair!! I have dyed my hair with blonde and still have long hair!!
As a college student, low cost and low waste is always in the back of my mind. Keeping things that can be reused and bottle that can be repurposed is always a need!!
Not to mention being cautious about what you are putting on and in your body! The less toxins being put in results in the less needing to be let out.
These are the perfumes I reach for over and over again, the ones that never leave me feeling underdressed. They’re perfect for anyone looking to build a fragrance wardrobe that feels intentional and unforgettable. Each scent is here to help you smell incredible, feel confident, and have that little spark that makes people lean in and ask what you’re wearing.

Skincare for PCOS-Prone Skin 💛 If you deal with hormonal breakouts, dark marks, excess oil, or stubborn texture because of PCOS, this list is for you. I’ve rounded up skincare products that support acne-prone, sensitive, and hyperpigmentation-prone skin without overwhelming it.

Consistency > perfection. Your skin deserves patience and support. 💫

As a licensed esthetican , I've worked with Dermalogica, studied the products and found some I personally love and will always recommend. I love this brand because it is also easily found at Ulta as well. I love the results these particular Dermalogica products provide.
Between overplucking during my teen years and my raging thyroid issues, my eyebrows have been thinning for years. These are what I'm using to try to grow them back. At the very least it'll nourish what I have! I mixed all of these ingredients into a one cup glass container and apply with a q tip.

Don't know if its worth the money? Don't worry! I got you. These products have never failed me. I have never had pilling, separation, or issues blending any of these products. Its a good mix of drug store and some higher end products. But trust me its worth the coin.
These are the makeup products that actually made the cut in my routine. A mix of boujee splurges and budget wins, because sometimes the cheap thing works great… and sometimes the expensive thing is just better.

I've had long hair for most of my life and taking care of it seems like a full-time job...but I love it. I enjoy the process, as well as styling it. My hair is on the thicker side, length is past my lower back, low porosity with 2c curls. I usually focus on moisturizing my hair and use clarifying shampoos to remove any product buildup and light oils and light leave-in conditioners. If you have any questions, drop a comment! Further suggestions…let me know! Thanks for being here!
Vitamin C is the skincare world’s glow filter. It fights dullness, evens out skin tone, and makes you look more awake — but not all Vitamin C serums are created equal. Some oxidize too fast, some irritate sensitive skin, and others just… don’t do much. These 18 are the real deal — derm-approved, reviewer-loved, and results-driven. If you’re ready for that “did you just get a facial?” glow, this list is your shortcut.
