For this list, I added all my favorite skin-prep favorites that have absolutely changed the game for me; I used to have makeup that would fade off 30 minutes after I put it on and dry up but once I started prioritizing my skin prep routine, my skin has never looked better and my makeup has never lasted so long and looked this amazing. The order of products is extremely important, so I made sure to organize this list from my first step to my last step, with the first step being the grape water moisturizing mist and the last step being the glowy super gel.
These are the products that I use when I want that instant glow up look. These are guaranteed to help you look well moisturized. These are products that I rotate often. Each item addresses dullness, brightening, moister, puffiness, fine lines, and sagginess.

i'm a perfectionist, so i'm either all in blow out-using every product i own- 12 step routine- OR simply not washing my hair at all lmao. Since using the abbey yung method, my hair is the healthiest it's EVER been. I used to stretch wash day as far apart as I could, but my scalp was itchy and dry and my hair was so bleghhhhhhhh. I've since sucked it up and started washing every other day, and banished dry shampoo from my routine and OMG. THE DIFFERENCE I CANNOT EVEN EXPLAIN!!!! PLS try this routine, I've marked the products I think are absolutely essential with an “ESSENTIAL” at the end of the description! ENJOY THE BEST HAIR EVER DIVAS!!!!
