Holy Hydration! The Essentials Mini Kit
This face lotion makes you skin feel amazing!

My lips were driving me crazy in the winter, they were getting so dry & cracked. I tried this and it was WONDERFUL! I love that it's not greasy and I can still wear my lip color over it!!
Holy Hydration! Lip Mask
I use this about twice a week. I put it on right before I go to bed and wash it off the next morning. It has really helped with the dryness on my face. LOVE IT!!

Make sure your daytime moisturizer has SPF! You don't want those age spots do you???

After the tinted moisturizer, I use this concealer around my eyes and on my red spots. It really helps give my face a “completed” look!
Hydrating Camo Concealer
I have a confession - I get double use out of this on my busy mornings! I use a little tint on my cheekbones for a blush AND I use it on my lips! Makes my morning routine quicker!!
Sheer For It Blush Tint
I feel like I basically have NO lashes. When I started using this, Grandpa actually asked if I got “some of those extension things on my eyes” 😂😂 This is now my FAVORITE!!
Lash XTNDR Mascara
Don't forget the brows before you walk out the door! It just gives that final finished, put-together look to help you feel confident for the day!
Instant Lift Brow Pencil
Hair Basics for Busy Moms
Quick fixes for when you need your hair to cooperate but don't have time to fight with it!
I had tried dry shampoos, and didn't like them. Then someone told me about Living Proof and said it would actually feel like I had washed my hair. IT DOES!!! So if you need a good dry shampoo for those mornings that nothing went right, so you didn't have time to wash your hair, get this!! It's a game changer!!
Perfect hair Day™ Dry Shampoo
My daughter uses this in my grand daughters hair! She has curly hair that get tangled up so easy! When she uses this, the curls just bounce and no more screaming when trying to brush her hair in the mornings!!!
One United Lightweight Leave-In Hair Conditioner | Redken
When I was in high school, I would wear my hair in a ponytail at night. This was the 80's, and I realized that my hair was breaking off and I could get the “big hair” like I wanted. A hairdresser told me I had to stop sleeping with my hair up. Years later, I find out about silk scrunchies - once I started wearing my hair short….. BUT all 3 of my daughters use nothing but these now, from them and my grand daughters! Save hair breakage by using these!!!
Slip Silk Skinny Scrunchies
I'm sure everyone has heard of the Wet Brush by now…. But I just had to add this on as one of my favorites, because these things are LIFE SAVERS (and mornings!) 😂
Wet Brush Original Detangler Hair Brush
I think the silk bonnets have become a trend… I don't know. I know my girls started wearing them because they have curly hair and it helped their curls stay in place and not as much maintenance in the mornings. Then my teenage nieces called me on video one night and they both had them on and their hair is straight and thin! They said “it helps it not be frizzy” Ok then…. I guess this is now a must have!
Adjustable Silk Bonnet for Sleeping

Start off with a nice hair mask. This is a great way to deep condition your hair. The mask will help replenish dry hair as well as help strengthen it. Leave on for 5 minutes then rinse.
