Scrolling through your feed and adding influencer picks to cart, then closing the tab when you see the price. Same. I spent months comparing formulas, swatches, and wear time so you can get that exact look without the credit card guilt. Grab these before your next haul.
I never cared about protecting my skin from UV rays until recently as I have started developing sun spots more easily (or is it because I'm getting old 😩😭) and now I can't stop because I wanna age flawlessly hahaha. Join me on my sunscreen journey!! Here is a list of products that I love that help me protect my skin!
These are some of my favorite beauty products. There is a mix of adorable and higher end products. I use most of these products every day, like the Tarte Mascara and the Naked Palettes.
The best of the best makeup products for my 40 year old normal/combo skin. These are the products that never fail me and I’ve repurchased multiple times or will when they run out.

These are some of my absolute FAVORITE hair care products and this list is great for wanting to get into haircare and building up a basic routine for your hair! All hair types are different, I personally have very thick wavy hair and these just make my hair look so good!
The viral makeup worth the hype — and the pieces that keep delivering long after the trend fades. The blush that broke the internet, the drugstore mascara that outperforms luxury, and the lip tints worth every penny. A mix of splurges and budget-friendly dupes, so there's something at every price point, with shades and links all in one place.
I’m a mom of 3 young kids, employed full time and I coach high school cheerleading, so I’m BUSY. I’m always looking for high quality, dependable beauty products that make my life easier, look great, and must last all day. These are all my tried-and-true products.
Every November I used to panic-scroll through gift guides trying to find something for my dad, my brother, my father-in-law, and my buddy from college. They all have different skin, different styles, different levels of effort they're willing to put in. After years of trial and error (and a few returned cologne sets), I finally locked in a rotation that gets genuine thank-yous instead of polite smiles. Grab these now before the holiday rush wipes out the good stuff.
After so many years of experimenting with different hair products for my stubborn difficult to style hair, these are the best products I have found that really work!

I know how challenging it could be to find make up products that combat oily skin and keeps your skin looking matte and natural. So below I curated a list of a bunch of products ive used in my makeup routine that gives you that flawless finish. Enjoy ;)!
The beauty products that I cannot live without and have repurchased over and over!! 🤍🤍 as a dermatitis girly, I have to be so careful of what I put on my skin so trust me on these!
My most used skincare and hair care products. I’m a snob for NuSkin (the Lumi iO changes the game for my skincare). But my hair care is much more all over the map. I hope you enjoy!
As a busy mama of 5, I need effortless, glowy, and done in minutes ✨ I’ve curated my go-to minimal makeup for that clean girl look — fresh skin, easy steps, and instant confidence. Look good, smell good, FEEL GOOD 🫶🏼
I’m not exaggerating when I say these are the scents that stop strangers in their tracks. As someone deeply obsessed with fragrance, I test a lot of perfumes, but only a few make it into my permanent rotation. This list is curated specifically for the scents that have incredible longevity, amazing projection, and consistently guarantee someone will chase me down to ask, 'Wait, what are you wearing?!' From date-night stunners to everyday signatures, these are my tried-and-true favorites.
All my beauty recommendations that are Black girl, acne prone, combo skin & hyperpigmentation friendly! Even some beauty finds that everyone can grab from!

these are all the items that I currently reach for regularly for my everyday makeup routine. I typically aim for a very clean and/or no makeup-makeup vibe!
This list includes my essential loc care and protective hair products for keeping my locs moisturized, neat, and healthy every day. As someone with locs, maintaining soft, well-kept, feminine hair is an important part of my self-care and glow-up routine. These are the products and tools I use to nourish my scalp, reduce dryness, maintain neat styles, and protect my hair overnight. Everything here supports healthy loc growth and helps my hair stay polished, feminine, and confidently maintained.”
As someone who has worked in beauty retail spaces such as Sephora, these are all products that have worked wonders on my skin! I am 28 years old with oily/ combination skin and I have noticed with consistent use, my skin is pretty clear! (with an occasional breakout before my period lol). You can curate a very basic but effective skincare routine by choosing a cleanser paired with a moisturizer. For a routine targeted towards specific skin concerns, add a daily or nightly serum, daily exfoliant, and a weekly mask!
Every tired mom deserves a spa night! These are the self-care gifts I'd love to get: bath soaks, shower steamers, a silk eye mask, heated neck wraps, luxe body oils, foot masks, a waffle robe and a teak bath caddy. Perfect for a mom's Christmas gift or a little treat to yourself.
Need some good cheaper beauty and makeup recommendations. I use most of these every single day and get compliments about my make up. I don’t like to spend a bunch of money on makeup so this is what I use.

If you have ever finished a run with burning, watery eyes because your sunscreen melted off your forehead by mile two, I get it. I went through seven bottles last summer trying to find formulas that could handle Texas heat, sweat, and humidity without sliding into my eyes or leaving me looking like a glazed donut. This list is for runners, cyclists, and anyone who exercises outside and needs sun protection that actually performs. Took me all of last summer to figure this out so you can skip straight to what works.
normally i don’t really stick to one specific routine as sometimes i like to switch some products around but this list contains the products i use most frequently.
please bear in mind that i have oily/combination, acne-prone, sensitive skin.

My skin is very reactive and sensitive. I’m also prone to acne, hormonal break outs and fine lines! These products keep the breakouts at bay and have been slowly even out my skin tone and getting rid of the fine lines around my eyes and forehead.
These are my Must Haves! Since I've become a stay at home mom makeup is the one thing that makes me feel like me. I don't try new makeup often anymore, but when I find something I REALLY love I can't gatekeep. 🩷🥰
You know that friend who always looks put together and smells amazing but acts like she barely tries? Mine finally spilled every single product she uses. I was skeptical at first because my skin is way more dramatic than hers, but after three months of copying her routine almost exactly, people started asking ME what changed. If you're tired of guessing what works and just want someone's actual lineup that holds up, start here before you waste another paycheck on returns.
I’ve used all of these products over the last few years to minimize the breakouts I have and brighten up my skin. My skin was pretty dull before and I would be breaking out more often than not. Since using these products my skin made a complete 180 and I rarely even need to cover up a pimple, never the less deal with a breakout.

Took me two years of trial and error so you can skip straight to what actually helped.
