Skincare and Makeup
Life saver for clearing acne marks from pregnancy and postpartum.
Dr.Althea
Best moisturizer. I have acne prone skin and many cream based products make me breakout more.
Trilogy Certified Organic Rosehip Oil
This helps clear up new breakouts fast. I keep it in my nightly rotation and do not use it everyday.
Azelaic Acid Suspension 10% for Exfoliation & Even Skin Tone
Turning 40 means preventative skincare. This helps keep fine lines to a minimum, diminishes puffiness from lack of sleep with a baby, and moisturizers well.
Retrinal EYES Advanced 3-In-1 Eye Cream
Leaves no cast, feels light, does not clog my pores, and moisturizes well. Make up easily goes on over this without looking patchy.
Vinosun Protect | Caudalie®
The zero foam cleanser clears pores at night and the pdrn helps refresh in the morning. Ideal combination. Neither one is too drying.
medicube Gentle Cleansing Duo: Zero Foam & PDRN
Every morning. I have a kid who still does not sleep through the night soooo.
Best Under Eye Mask for Puffiness, Dark Circles & Dryness
Clean, safe makeup is essential. My son gives me kisses (open mouthed biting) on my face all the time and I cannot risk it. Should you eat this? No. Will it harm him from his “kisses”? Doubtful. Kid eats dirt sometimes…
Face Makeup: Foundation, Concealer, Serum
I'll be honest I have naturally very long eyelashes. I have to gently close my eyes when I put on mascara to not smudge it under my brow. However, my eyelashes are light brown/blonde and almost invisible without mascara. This mascara when applied wit...
Hypnôse Doll Lashes Wide-Eye-Effect Fiber Mascara - Lancôme
I have been using this on and off for the last 8ish years when I have the money to spend. Spend 20 minutes looking insane and creepy with your face immobile to have baby fresh skin once you wash it off. Is it long lasting? No. But, really great for s...
The Starter Regimen – Lift | Firm | Brighten | Renew
I listened to my mother and did not overpluck my eyebrows in the early 2000s so now I just fill in gaps and hide white hairs. Yes. White. Hairs. Ugh.
COVERGIRL Easy Breezy Brow Powder Kit, 710 Soft Brown, 0.008 oz
So wildly satisfying. Simply rub away dead skin. Make up and products go on smoothly and absorb better.
Mineral Peel Face
I use this in my evening rotation. It's very refreshing, cooling, and doesn't clog my pores. I won't wake up with dry skin in the morning.
Hudson's Pick SKIN1004 Madagascar Ampoule
Hair and Styling
I have long, fine hair and was genuinely tired of storing so many things to dry and style it. This uses just air pressure and you can choose the temperature which is amazing to reduce frizz. All the attachments work so well and switching them out is ...
Shark FlexFusion Styling and Drying System - Costco Wholesale
Reduces frizz and pulls less hair out than a round brush for my long, fine hair type. Easy to clean out as well.
Magnesium Paddle Brush by Ion | Hair Brushes
I use this to brush out my wet hair after a shower. It detangles so well without pulling my hair out.
