As a natural hair girly, it can be hard to find hair products that work for me. Here are items that I use to care for my natural 4B-4C hair, focused on moisture retention. Of all the products I try, I think these have remained a staple in some way. Keeping it simple is my way of maintaining healthy hair, but I like to try new things so I try to balance. I will continue to update this list as I find more faves, but enjoy for now!

My everyday beauty products that I love and forever will repurchase! I’m a girl that loves her natural no makeup, makeup/clean girl look.

I have always had textured hair at the least. It wasn’t until high school (and a good chop) that my curly hair started to define more. I was on a hunt to find good quality products that wouldn’t leave a heavy layer on my hair. After almost 2 years I found these products that leave my hair feeling soft, defined, and not like a Barbie’s hair. For the past 3 years I have been using these products everyday.

I have recently become addicted to perfumes. These are the perfumes I desperately want to try - if I had a million dollars I definitely would.

When I was younger and had all the time to get ready, I would spend hundreds of $$ to cake up my face 🤣 Now, I still have the time, but I'd much rather spend it in other ways such as scrolling on social media or playing my phone games 🤦♀️
I'm not sure about you, but during the pandemic, I took full advantage of wearing a mask at work (health care). I didn't have to wake up early to do my face. So, I made it a point to start taking better care of my skin. Since then, I don't think I've purchased any high end make up brands. I don't wear foundation or concealer anymore. If I have to wear makeup, I wear a drug store powder, blush, mascara, and eyeliner.
I have combo skin with an oily t-zone, and I do get pimples monthly 😒. I hope you find my recommendations helpful. Remember, what works for me may not work for you.
