☀️Sunscreens
Protect your skin!!!
For sensitive skin homies—super light weight, no white cast, and leaves my skin dewy!
Daily UV Defense Sunscreen Broad Spectrum SPF 36
Another good sunscreen for sensitive skin. Supergoop has a variety of products depending on your skin type so be sure to check the features!
Unseen Sunscreen SPF 50
Word on the street is that this Elf sunscreen is a dupe for Supergoop Unseen…I tried it and agree! This is an affordable, sensitive-skin-friendly sunscreen that you can pick up at the drugstore. Elf products and the brand itself continue to produce q...
Elf Suntouchable Invisible Sunscreen SPF 35
🧴 Moisturizers
Keep that skin barrier hydrated! 😤
Danessa’s skincare/makeup line is AMAZING. Like…all the products are crafted intentionally and with care, bringing in innovative products infused with “yummy” skincare so you know you’re caring for your skin. I use this balm specifically to prime dry...
Yummy Skin Moisture Repair Balm Serum
Another moisturizer that I saw constantly being recommended. There’s a reason why K-beauty products are always trending— because they’re consistently so good! I took a chance on this moisturizer and it’s been my go-to for every day. It’s light weight...
ATOBARRIER365 Cream - AESTURA
This is a newer Elf release, and people were immediately raving about it. I understand. I’ve been using this for skin prep before makeup, and I love the way it dries down on my skin. It’s got a subtle grip, and holy hydration is right!
In. Shower. Moisturizers. If you haven't tried any of these, you're missing out. I love for my skin to feel constantly moisturized, but as a lazy girl, sometimes it feels like a lot to lather and lotion up my entire body! Cue In shower moisturizers. ...
Curel In-Shower Lotion Moisturizer
Similar to the Curel moisturizer, Palmers' body oils are another affordable alternative for in-shower moisturizers—one of my recent obsessions! Unlike the Curel moisturizer however, this is an oil. I apply it in the same way: right after I shower and...
Palmers Body Oil: Another great in-shower moisturizer!
I love having moisturized skin, and love body oils, but sometimes they can be really messy to apply and take a while to dry down! When I discovered Vaseline's gel oil, I was pleasantly surprised. I didn't know what to expect trying an oil in gel form...
Vaseline Intensive Care Cocoa Radiant Gel Oil
I picked up a mini of this without realizing it would be one of my daily used products. I was so impressed with how hydrating this moisturizing toner is. I really like using it in the mist bottle to prime my skin! It’s so lightweight and seriously so...
Cream Skin Toner & Moisturizer
I’ll use this at nights and the next day my skin always feels moisturized and ready for the day! It’s lightweight, yet not so lightweight where it dissolves and you don’t feel it moisturizing.
Triple Lipid-Peptide Face Cream - Barrier Repair Cream
I would compare this to the Laneige toner and moisturizer that has been popular recently. This mist is SUPER moisturizing and SO light—and it really does exactly what it says: protect the skin barrier by applying whenever you feel dryness. It's been ...
ATOBARRIER365 Cream Mist - AESTURA
A newer brand/product that I wish I found sooner! This salve is AMAZING. You put it on after you’re done showering, and then immediately rinse it off. I was concerned I was doing it wrong—like rinsing off the product, but the water actually is what a...
In-Shower Body Moisture Treatment - Splash Salve - Hanni
💄 Makeup
To amplify your natural beauty 🥰
You already know that I have to include my girl Vanessa Myricks as one of my top rated make up products! This skin tint is packed with skin care so smooth on the skin and has a wide range of colors. I love a no make up make up look and this provides ...
Yummy Skin Serum Skin Tint Foundation with Peptides + Ceramide
I’m always out and about, so a tubing mascara is the perfect choice for someone who wants an all day hold without having to worry about smudging or those dreaded raccoon eyes. This mascara has a good amount of hold with minimal clumping.
I think th...
Lash XTNDR Mascara
This is one of those products that took me a bit of time to understand, but when I did, I loved it. I am often running late, and this is the perfect product to quickly use and still get that elevated-put-together look. These sticks come in both blush...
On-the-Glow Bronze
I hate when makeup feels like makeup. So I always look for products that are light, breathable, skin-care infused, and still enhancing. I immediately grabbed this Kosas BB Gel skin tint when it came out a bit ago because of the described lightweight ...
Kosas BB Burst Tinted Gel Cream
I love tubing mascara because of it's no-smudge hold, and convenient removal (just add water!). Tarte's tubing mascara were among the top recommendations when I was researching which ones to try. I started with the smaller travel-size versions to try...
Tartelette™ XL Tubing Mascara
This is a product that I saw mixed reviews about, but after doing much research, I needed to try it for myself. The big draw for me was “serum skin tint.” Doesn't that sound luscious? After getting it, I was aware of some of the criticisms—most notab...
Super Serum Skin Tint SPF 40
My go-to beauty products are ones that give a no-makeup makeup look and feel. This milk jelly blush has been a staple in my routine from the moment I got it. Although it took some time to try it (because it was immediately sold out) once I did get it...
The first step to good makeup application is good skincare, which starts with keeping your skin clean!
I have sensitive, acne-prone skin, and panoxyl has been such a great product in my skincare routine and journey! It can be strong at first, so make sure to take note of how your skin is reacting so you can adjust accordingly (for example, maybe moist...
PanOxyl Acne Foaming Wash 10% Benzoyl Peroxide
This oil cleanser is SO hydrating and gentle on the skin! I use this daily as the first step of washing my face and follow with a normal cleaner (I use Panoxyl!). I give my t-zone some extra love with this cleanser—massaging it deeply into your pores...
Heartleaf Pore Control Cleansing Oil for Sensitive Skin
A classic sensitive-skin friendly cleanser! When not using PanOxyl, this is one of my go-to cleansers after oil cleansing. It has done well with my acne-prone skin, and isn't harsh!
Toleriane Purifying Foaming Facial Wash
💪🏽 Toners/Serums
My go to toner lately. So gentle, but so exfoliating! I use this morning and night, and part of my skin prep before makeup because it exfoliates my skin so well. It helps with oil control, and as someone with acne prone-skin, I was so pleased that it...
SOME BY MI AHA BHA PHA 30 Days Miracle Toner 150ml
