SKINCARE

As someone who's never had Botox or fillers, I swear by Medical Grade skincare!

I have never had Botox or fillers (I'm 35). After my last baby I felt like I needed to step something up and was SO GLAD I found this. It has been incredible for day to day bloating in my face and tightening the skin. I'm hoping to stay ahead of the ...
NuFACE MINI+ Microcurrent Facial Device Kit

Daily ish gua sha helps so much! I have a face version (this one) and a body paddle & brush too.

For a special occasion day, or just a bit of extra OOOMPH, I will sleep in one of these and I wake up with the most moisturized and glowy skin. Such a nice treat!

Absolutely swear by Barefaced. They are medical grade and thoughtfully designed. I have used them for almost five years now and I'm never tempted by the latest skincare trends because they work so well. This is the best vitamin C I've ever used and i...
Barefaced Liquid Gold 15% Vitamin C Serum

THE best retinol, period. It's actually a RetinAL, which is stronger than Retinol and works faster but thanks to the other ingredients like Jojoba Oil, it doesn't dry me out or irritate my skin. It's so smooth and velvety and leaves my skin looking s...
Barefaced Retinal Skin Therapy 30ml Serum

I've been using this for almost five years now, just at night, and it's truly fabulous. Gets my skin so clean without feeling dry or tight.
Revision Papaya Enzyme Cleanser with Salicylic Acid

The MVP of a Barefaced skincare routine! These are absolute magic. Highly recommend a chemical exfoliant like this one over a physical one!
Barefaced Toning Pads 60ct - Glycolic & Salicylic Acid

Absolutely amazing for sensitive or aging skin! I used to struggle with acne and rosacea (both of which have cleared up with using Barefaced!) and this is such an incredible serum for overall texture and skin health.
Barefaced Overachiever 30mL 10-in-1 Skin Booster

My current eye serum!! I've used it the last year or so and find it better than a heavier cream in that area since I have sensitive eyes.
NIOD Fractionated Eye-Contour Concentrate 15ml

The best Micellar water! I do this as a first cleanse to remove my makeup and then use the Revision cleanser. So good and so gentle!

MAKEUP

No makeup makeup for every day and my favorite elevated makeup picks too!

So beautiful I wear it all day every day by itself or over neutral lip liner. Perfect little shine and not sticky. Also wear at night as a mask and it keeps my lips so soft and smooth.

This is a dupe for a Charlotte Tilbury glow highlighter at a fraction of the price. I add this to EVERY foundation I use and it's stunning.

When I got my Anastasia foundation & palette the lady at Sephora put the concealer on me too and I took one look and said PACK IT UP! No creasing, no caking.
Anastasia Beverly Hills - Magic Touch Concealer

No makeup makeup had made me afraid to use a setting powder but this one is PERFECT and never leaves me looking dry or cakey. Just sets the makeup without leaving a trace!
Anastasia Beverly Hills - Loose Setting Powder

I've done the research. I've tested THEM ALL. And truly think this is the best mascara out there. I have long lashes but they need a curl and volumizing mascara. This one never flakes or rubs off throughout the day. It's really just so good!!!
Tower 28 MakeWaves Volumizing Lash Mascara

ABSOLUTELY STUNNING. Best foundation I've used in years, looks incredible in person too just like you have flawless skin.

As a low tox mama I LOVE that I can do a gel manicure at home without all the toxic ingredients. This is super easy to use and lasts really well!

I upgraded my razor this year and this is THE most legit razor I've ever used. It doesn't bend and flex the same way as a plastic one, but after you figure it out it will give you the best, closest shave. It leaves me irritation free and I no longer ...

This bath soak makes me feel like I'm on a literal cloud. As a mom who loves her coffee (which depletes our Magnesium!) this is always an incredibly restorative moment for me. I put a small amount in for my kids too!

My absolute favorite body lotion. Unscented, leaves your skin super soft and LOOKING SO MUCH YOUNGER. I try to put it on daily and notice when I don’t my hands especially look so much more dry.
