Here is the one tip that fixes most streaky tans: exfoliate the day before, then rub a little plain moisturizer on knees, elbows, ankles and hands before you apply anything. This fall and winter guide sorts the best Ulta self-tanners by how you like to use them (drops, mousses, gradual lotions, face mists, mitts and tan erasers), so you can keep a believable glow going all season without a bronzer-only routine.
Picture the five minutes before you leave the house: one pump of tint, one swipe of concealer, done. These Ulta tinted moisturizers, skin tints and BB/CC creams, including IT Cosmetics CC+, ILIA Super Serum Skin Tint and Supergoop Glowscreen, deliver no-makeup makeup with SPF built in. Match one shade and you are set.
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.

I love a good no-makeup makeup look, BUT NOTHING BEATS CLEAR, HEALTHY SKIN. The beauty industry loves to promote drying out your acne, but I'd like to digress and stick to moisturizing it as much as I can. I also monitor how much active ingredients I'm layering because certain ingredients will definitely break through my skin barrier, which defeats the purpose of a healthy skin. Also, skincare is a trial-and-error method. Not everyone will like the product I'm recommending, but that's why I love buying skincare from Sephora because I can return items within 60 days, and find another product that my skin will love.
Quality cosmetics for a polished presence. Refined, intentional, elevated. What I wear when it matters—to meetings, presentations, the course. Makeup that makes a statement without apology.
If you suffer from hyperpigmentation whether it’s due to post acne marks or hormonal hyperpigmentation, you’re in the right place! I’ve dealt with it most of my adult life so I’ve given each product plenty of time to see results. (At LEAST 3 months). This list is in no particular order as I’ve seen noticeable results from all of these products. Keep in mind that I did however use some of these items at the same time for optimal results. For example, I may used one of the cleansers along with a treatment, but never 2 treatments at once. Also, don’t forget your sunscreen 🤗.
