I know I’ve gathered them from the best!

As an acne prone girlie, I am well versed in skin barrier wreckage. I have enlarged pores, rosacea, acne, pitting, scaring, hyperpigmentation, and dark under eyes. It SUCKS not having perfect, flawless skin! I love having a good skincare routine, and I'm a huge skincare/beauty lover, so I like to try a lot of products. But sometimes I wreck my skin barrier, and I think I've passed the point of no return. The worst thing is to have an acne flare up, or just a wrecked barrier. It's a huge struggle for so many people, and personally, I know it destroys my confidence. Makeup can only cover up so much, but to get to the root of the problem you have to take care of your skin! I had an allergic reaction a few months ago that I thought I'd never recover from, but thankfully skincare saved me! These are my favorite skin barrier repairing products! Most of these are meant for barrier repair, but I'm also going to include products that I used that helped me repair mine, even if they're not designed that way. This list is broken up by product category, but I think these products can be mixed and matched to whatever your skincare concern may be! Under the caption for the product, I will include the ingredients that make it a barrier repairing product. If you're struggling with your skin, you're not alone! If you don't know where to start, let this be your first step! Please feel free to ask questions, and checkout my TikTok - you'll see how my skin looked before and after using these products, my favorite routines, and so much more!

I spent two years and way too much money figuring out which powders, primers, and setting products actually photograph well under flash. This list is for anyone who has events coming up, takes a lot of selfies, or just wants their makeup to look the same in pictures as it does in the mirror. Save yourself the trial and error I went through.

For girls who are just starting out with makeup, or don’t do a full face every day, these are my favorite basic essentials for long-lasting makeup! *all products are cruelty-free*

I recently started the abbey yung method on my hair, I had a lot of damage from bleach and my hair needed some help with moisture and repair! Also after having my sons I had a lot of post partum baby hairs and wanted everything to grow healthier. this is everything I use and I’ve noticed a huge change. I have 2B hair and my ends can be on the dry side and I can frizz easily. My frizz has become minimal and my ends are even more smooth

“WHY is my hair falling out so much?!” is something I would say in the shower almost daily. My hair was thinning, dull, and lifeless. Turns out, not only am I prone to fungal acne on my face, the same issue occurs on my scalp! It even seems to begin there. The best free habits to prevent hair loss are: drinking water and sleeping well. The most important habit from my experience, however, is cleanliness. Make sure to sleep with clean hair - that means washing EVERY day. Waiting between washes absolutely does not work for us Asians who have thick hair. Ensure no heavy or occlusive products are applied before bed and make sure the hair is 80-90% dry - prolonged moisture is bad news for your scalp. If you do these habits and try these products, I promise you will see a huge difference (and you do not have to be asian to follow this routine!). Now I barely lose hair in the shower. Anywhere from 10-20 strands is the average. Try for yourself! Artwork: Goyo Hashiguchi (1880-1921) 橋口五葉 - - "Woman Combing her Hair - 髪すける女"

Years of heat and box dye put my hair through it, plus I deal with eczema and a sensitive scalp, so I’ve tested a lot of products.
