Growing up I never had to worry about skincare- I could wash my face in the shower with some bar soap and a pimple would never even dare pop up. But, when I turned 23 I went through CRAZY hormonal changes that changed everything I knew about caring for my skin (which was nothing). These products helped me regain my clear skin and feel better about not having naturally spotless skin. Please note these are all things that have worked for my normal-oily, acne-prone skin (typical breakouts are around the chin and forehead).

When I started doing makeup in 2007 I thought the only way to do it was with dark brows, smokey black eyeshadow, a little bronzer, no foundation, no blush and no lip products.

Here are my current faves throughout the past two years!
