All of the products below are some of the best dupes for my favorite high-end cosmetics! I've tried all of these myself and I've seen similar/slightly BETTER results! I would definitely recommend these to anyone who's looking for cheap, yet high quality products!

I box dye my hair roughly every other month and it's still healthy because of my hair care routine. (I have 1C/2A hair for reference)

I’ve tried just about everything to get my hair stronger, thicker, and healthier, and these are the products that actually worked for me. This list is all about promoting hair growth, strengthening thinning hair, and giving fragile strands a fighting chance to shine again. These are my favorites—the ones I reach for every single day: • Best hair growth serums that wake up the scalp and encourage thicker, fuller hair • Strengthening hair treatments and sprays that protect against breakage • Hydrating products for damaged hair that keep strands soft, shiny, and touchable I think of it like a little ritual. Every product plays a role, and together they create hair that feels irresistible and looks healthier with time. I’m sharing it with you because I know how it feels to struggle with thinning hair—and I also know the joy of finally finding what works. If you’re looking for the best hair products for growth and strength, this is the list I’d share with my sister or my best friend. Healthy, thriving hair has a way of turning heads without trying. That’s the quiet power in this list—and it’s yours to explore.

I love trying mascaras and I will share here my favorites!

My favorite makeup productsI use on repeat! These are a blend of youthful and products for aging skin! 💕 All faves you’d find in my makeup bag.

Hair, skin and nails should be basics for our glow ups! If we feel confident in those three things we feel confident to eat the world one bite at a time! Fun fact: It is super important to hydrate your skin before make up and before sleep time! We loose 25% of our hydration during sleep which is what causes our skin to age quicker 😴🌙

my ultimate holy grail makeup items Skin type: dry combination flaky Skin tone: Tan asian skin Location: Ireland Took me years to find the perfect products, I am a minimalist so I repurchase them when I’m done instead of purchasing multiple products and experimenting (like i did in the past)

We all want the perfect silk press that shines, moves, and LASTS. Here are a few tried and true products to help you achieve that perfect silk press at home. Pay yourself that $100+ that you would've spent at the salon and get something nice (girl math).

Some of my most trusted and effective products for light skin with peach undertones. Combination with a little dryness.

I recently combed out my locs so my hair was really stubborn when it came to training it to behave correctly. Thankfully I found products that made each stage of my hair care better (locs, loose natural, straight, curly/braids). After locs, I also got my hair straightened a few times too many and got heat damage so it took a while to get my curls back but the list below should help if you're experiencing the same thing!

Prodcuts that have made me fall in love with my hair again

These fragrances are some of my personal favorites and will have people turning heads.

my personal favorites to keep my hair styled and frizz free! i have 2c hair, but all these products work great for all types of curly/wavy hair, and others will work wonders for straight to curly hair alike <3

Now in my 40s, taking care of my skin is a top priority. I steam, exfoliate, use red light therapy mask and use basic tools that don't cost the earth.

I am a 65+ year old woman who is finally getting her morning routine under wraps after being a career woman for 40 years!

Looking for beauty products that actually deliver? I’ve handpicked my absolute favourites—the ones I reach for every single day. From glow-boosting skincare to must-have makeup, these are tried, tested, and loved, so you don’t have to waste time guessing what works. As we age alternative foundations & eye makeup needs amending and improved new ideas need experimenting to suit our unique qualities and personalities. Let me know what’s working for you…some are budget conscious and remain chosen over many new highly expensive brands. Last but not least important is your pillow case. A little luxury well spent supports your facial skin while you rest. Prevents those deep lines and helps promote the epidermis layers. Money well spent.

Here are my recommendations for a signature scent–detailing who each scent is best suited for.

Here is a list of simple makeup products I use for a clean, minimal look. I only use mascara and a brow brush for my daily look, but will occasionally go for something a little more!

Dessert scents for the alt‑girl gourmand: this is the pistachio edition list (I plan on making more with my fave diffrent yummy , edible top notes 😇) . DONT BE SCARED! Pistachio wasn't appealing to me.. until I smelt it mixed into EDP dream smells. Give it a chance if maybe you’re into creamy vanilla, nutty dough, and edible vibes with edge? These are the perfume picks that survived my off‑grid tub ritual and inked skin tests.

Skincare I swear by for anti aging, dark spots and sensitive skin!

As someone who doesn’t use a ton of products, these are ones I like and would buy again. I think it’s important to take care of yourself even in little ways.

Skincare, makeup, fragrance, hair products! A few popular beauty products (and for good reason) 🫶🏽💕

For reference, my hair’s thick with a mix of straight and wavy textures — kind of that “combination hair” that does its own thing depending on the day. My roots lean a little oily but my ends get dry, so I’m always looking for products that smooth frizz, add shine, and keep everything balanced. These are my go-to hair care favorites for thick, wavy hair that actually feel lightweight but make a big difference in softness and manageability. I’ve handpicked my favorite shampoos, conditioners, treatments, and styling tools that actually work. Whether you’re aiming for healthy hair, effortless waves, or just taming frizz, these are products I trust and regularly use.

My skin can be VERY dry throughout the year. To the point no products really help it. My esthetician had suggested Prequel and I haven't gone back to anything else since! The products balance my skin without leaving it feeling greasy.

I’m super picky about what goes on my face. If it’s cakey, heavy, or pore-clogging, it’s a no. These are my everyday makeup staples that look like skin… just better.

To keep my hair shiny and healthy, I always start with a quality shampoo that is gentle yet effective, followed by a conditioner that provides optimal moisture without weighing it down. I also regularly use a light hair serum or oil to maintain its natural strength and shine. A weekly treatment with a nutrient-rich hair mask makes my hair feel softer and more manageable. With these steps, my hair always looks well-groomed and full of vitality, ready to face the day with confidence.

i love my skincare and always have nice hydrated skin, this is what i use

Surprise - it’s 11 because I couldn’t narrow it down. I’ve always struggled with my skin. It’s combination with dry patches and oily patches, so much redness, and acne prone. I rarely go out without make up because of it. The last 6 months I’ve been pouring into my skin care routine with a focus on healing my barrier after too many actives. Here’s what stood the test!

I like a variety when it comes to skincare. I have partially dry, partially oily skin and these products have proven to work the best for me.

Feeling a little off? Needing to reset but not sure how? These are my favorite ways to reset and give back to myself in little ways.
