Thick, frizzy, and wavy hair.

These makeup and skincare products I LOVE that have me serving face all day

My curly hair journey began in middle school. My parents prioritized protective styles like braiding and twists. Exploring natural curls highlighted the contrast with societal pressures that showcase the wet look (ultimately defined and no frizz) and placing a stigma around textured hair as unkept which is false. Embracing your natural texture is essential for self-acceptance. Research on porosity, density, and suitable ingredients has led me to healthier hair, demonstrating that understanding hair care can empower others. Sharing this knowledge hopefully will assist and support you to have a simplified routine that works effectively.

I’ve been loving fresh, happy scents for the beginning of the year that don’t cost a fortune, here are my faves right now that just scream spring vibes!

I prefer skincare over makeup and I am proud of my medicine cabinet. Please care to consider what I put on my face as a 25 year old obsessed with a soft face feel. My goals include looking like one of those soft grandmas, and I hope to curate a skincare cabinet like an apothecary. I mainly shop at Sephora, Ulta, and Korean skincare websites like Olive Young. I love light simple ingredients and non pore clogging skincare products. I have normal skin with a slightly oily T zone. I don’t like to spend more than $60 on any particular product, ideally staying under $35

Skinvesting is probably my favorite kind of investing and I'm SHOOK that I don't already have stocks in some of these companies. If money isn't an issue and you want the BEST skincare out there... you've found the perfect list for that.

Low-waste products for your bathroom that are good for your body and for the planet!

Results-driven skincare. No hype, just performance. These are the products I use daily and consistently recommend because they do exactly what they claim to do. They’re formulated to target real concerns, dullness, fine lines, breakouts, uneven tone and deliver visible improvement with regular use. I don’t focus on trends. I focus on ingredients, texture, how they sit under makeup, and most importantly… whether they actually make a difference to your skin over time. This isn’t about a complicated 12 step routine. It’s about effective, reliable skincare that supports healthy skin day after day. If a product is on this list, it’s there because it performs, not because it looks good on a shelf. ✨
