items I typically buy all my Beauty Products from Walmart or Amazon. Very rarely do I purchase anything in store. I scan all my products on Yuka. I try to find the best products that are affordable, clean, cruelty-free, dye-free and work best for my needs!...

Facial Cleansing Products
I did a skin assessment on Thea and was advised to select products that include: Salicylic acid, Green tea, Niacinamide, Hyaluronic Acid, Ceramide, Panthenol, Caffeine and Peptide. I was advised to avoid products that contain: Alcohol, Parfum, Retino...
MY HOLY GRAIL! I use it to cleanse my face throughout the day to help keep dirt and sweat at bay, I use it on my underarms to help with odor, and I even use it in my dog's ears to help reduce bacteria! (Cruelty-free, vegan, BHT, paraben, dye and alco...
SkinSmart Facial Cleanser - Active ingredient: Hypochlorous Acid
Fantastic Daily Moisturizer that I can use twice a day without my skin feeling greasy! I use this nightly, and the Peach & Lily in the morning. (Non-comedogenic, BHT, fragrance, alcohol and dye free) Yuka: 100/100. PSA: The water cream is differe...
I typically buy this at Costco when I can find it

Neutrogena HydroBoost Water Cream+ - Hyaluronic Acid, Ceramide
A great toner that clarifies without drying out my skin! (Non-comedogenic, cruelty-free, vegan, BHT, sulfate, alcohol, dye and paraben free) Yuka: 100/100
Byoma Hydrating Milky Toner - Panthenol, Green Tea, Ceramide
One of the best gentle daily cleansers I have yet to find, it exfoliates my skin without drying it out! (Non-comedogenic, cruelty-free, vegan, alcohol, BHT, and paraben free) Yuka: 86/100 PSA: While it is more expensive than my typical $50 budget, it...
Dermologica Daily Microfoliant Exfoliator - Salicylic Acid, Green Tea
Favorite daily facial sunscreen with minimal residue (Non-comedogenic, vegan, cruelty-free, BHT, dye, paraben, sulfate and alcohol free) Yuka: 79/100
Native Mineral Suncsreen
This has worked wonders to help decrease dark spots and brighten my skin! I use it daily in the morning; after toner, and before applying sunscreen, and I feel like I have noticed a HUGE difference since adding it to my regimen! (Non-comedogenic, cru...
I typically buy this at Ulta or on Amazon if there's a deal

Peach & Lily Glass Skin Refining Serum - Peptide, Hyaluronic Acid, Niacinamide
This was one of My Thea recs! I typically use it every other day, after double cleansing my face. Since using it, I have noticed I don't get as many large, deep pimples anymore. (Non-comedogenic, vegan, cruelty-free, BHT, alcohol, suflate, dye and pa...
I have found this to be cheapest at Ulta

Murad AHA/BHA Exfoliating Cleanser - Salicylic Acid
Makeup
I have very acne prone, combo skin. I typically only wear makeup once a week or less, and use minimal products. I prefer cosmetics made without BHTs, parabens or alcohol. I really try to support cruelty-free businesses.
Brightens under eyes and dark spots. (Non-comedogenic, BHT, dye, alcohol, paraben and oil free and contains no animal derived ingredients) Yuka: 90/100
Neutrogena Glow Perfector Pen Concealer
100/10 Works great to remove makeup, cleanse my face, and just give it a little moisture boost! Whenever using to remove makeup I always wash my face afterwards, but I still like it to use it at least twice a day. (Non-comedogenic, cruelty-free, vega...
Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water with Hyaluronic Acid + Aloe
Not a bad choice for setting spray, considering it is one of the few affordable, clean setting sprays I can find. (Non-comedogenic, cruelty-free, vegan, BHT, alcohol and paraben free) Yuka: 79/100
e.l.f Power Grip Dewy Setting Spray
ALL TIME FAV MASCARA. It is a tubing mascara rather than a traditional mascara. While not waterproof, it does take a lot of water for it to come off. The mascara comes off in clumps, leaving your eyes and lashes stain-free! No more wet raccoon looks!...
Milani Highly Rated Lash Extensions Mascara

Stays on for hours and dries with a Matte finish (Vegan, Cruelty-free, Alcohol and Paraben free). Depending on the color you choose BHTs and dyes may be added. Yuka: N/A (for the color I own)
Velour Liquid Lipstick
Hair
I have thin, oily hair and also deal with dandruff time to time. I usually wash my hair every other day, air dry it and very rarely style it. My go-to is putting my hair up in a claw clip. I like to avoid alcohol, dyes, sulfates, parabens and phthala...
A great find if you can find it! It doubles as a leave-in conditioner and detangler. Yuka: 86/100
Shea Moisture Manuka Honey & Yogurt Hydrate + Repair Multi-Action Leave-In
My go-to for heat protectant. I don't use it everyday because I don't style my hair often, but it works well to help with split ends (No petrolatum or mineral oils) Yuka: 62/100
Creme of Nature Smooth & Shine Blow Out Creme
I have had a tough time determining my hair type and curl pattern. Currently, I am using this shampoo and conditioner. I will likely try a different formula next time, but I do really like all the Native options! (Cruelty-free, vegan, free from silic...
Native Curl Care Shampoo & Conditioner - Coconut Milk & Turmeric
Skincare
Since I live in AZ, I pretty much always have dry skin. I also have keratosis pilaris (KP) which is little acne-like bumps on my skin (mainly my shoulders). I have worked hard to find products that do not worsen, but rather improve the texture of my ...
Nice, moisturizing lotion that doesn't clog my pores or affect my KP! (Cruelty-free, vegan, sulfate, paraben, phthalate and dye free) Yuka: 86/100
Coconut & Vanilla Moisturizing Lotion
My favorite body wash! Another clean product that doesn't dry out my skin. (Cruelty-free, vegan, sulfate, paraben, phthalate and dye free) Yuka: 69/100
Native Body Wash | Lilac & White Tea
FINALLY! An aluminum-free deodorant that ACTUALLY WORKS! Since using, I have noticed that my underarms aren't as dark, and while I still sweat, it actually helps at preventing odor better than many other deodorants I have tried in the past. (Cruelty-...
