As a 40-year-old mom, I don't always feel like my best self. Some days, I want the simplest, cheapest, watered-down self-care routine possible. These products are my tried-and-true, go-to items every day!
I've been using these products for years and as someone who struggled with acne when I was younger, I enjoyed learning everything about skin and found some makeup contains pore clogging ingredients which in turn causes acne flare ups. Before the fancy apps existed where you could scan a product and it told you if it was good or not, I memorized the ingredients that were bad for oily/acne prone skin and would always skim through the ingredients list on every product before purchasing it.
It is absolutely crazy how many products are not considered safe during pregnancy & nursing. These recommendations are based off of things I used during my pregnancy. These items are considered safe according to the website 15minutebeauty. Tags: Baby/Kids As an Amazon Associate, I earn from qualifying purchases. #ad
