in a sea of #ads and #PaidPartnerships some products tend to get lost. it's not that they're bad or that the brands are underground, they just don't get as much attention from your favorite influencers that's all. BDS safe as always 💋
These are the skincare products that I have been using for healthy, radiant skin! I try to to select products that are fungal acne safe, non-comedogenic, and suitable for all skin types.
Not everyone has the money to put towards high end and celebrity brand makeup products. I have stuck to drugstore makeup all my life and found that these products work just as good as their high end counterparts. Note: For the acne girlies not all of these products are noncomedogenic but these are products that do not heavily irritate my skin and have the least amount of irritating ingredients I have found while still being great products. If a product is fully noncomedogenic I will list it in the note below. If you have really sensitive skin and are concerned about the specific ingredients on a product please look a the list on the website before purchasing, you can also copy and paste them into an online ingredient checker that will do the work for you and tell you what is good and bad for your skin.

Have you ever scrolled through your social media and wished you looked like that or had the outfit she had etc? It’s so easy to compare ourselves to other people and be unsatisfied and insecure with ourselves.
However, your biggest superpower is realizing that we are able to make it happen for us. What matters is deciding to make a change and sticking to it instead of just spending time wishing it happened to us magically.
These are tips, tricks and products I use to cosplay a baddie until I become an actual baddie!
Hi! I'm Bri and I have maybe the most sensitive skin the world (it feels like)! I have MCAS and an anaphylactic allergy to polyethylene glycol (PEG), which is in most skincare. My skin reacts to patch tests of things that I'm not even allergic to all the time. Everything on this list are things that I have no reaction to and my family has benefitted from using (I don't like to waste my money either)! 🩷✌️
