One of my staple skincare brands, I have almost every product on rotation. My favorites are the deep pore cleanser and the siren silk moisture cream!
Earth Harbor Naturals | Purely Natural, Ethical, Sea-Active Skincare
Excellent nighttime moisturizer! I always wake up feeling super hydrated and this doesn't clog my pores or make me break out. I have oily, congested skin, and I love this. Because of the bio-retinol, I don't even need a serum when I use this.

Great pore de-gunker, super gentle, non tightening, and all around great facial cleanser. I like to use this at night after the sunshine dew cleansing oil!

Honestly pHresh is an awesome brand, their products are great for sensitive skin and they work! Very light fragrance on this intimate cleanser and doesn't irritate.

My absolute favorite aluminum free deodorant, this stuff is amazing and really works. The best scent is the Frangipani Monoi but it is ALWAYS going out of stock. I buy several when it comes available again.

Some favorites that I love for my 3C, color treated, long hair.
This cowash type cleanser is wonderful as a leave in conditioner for hair! My scalp begs more suds for a wash but I am on my second bottle of this as a leave in.

This shampoo is amazing and affordable. My whole family loves it and my hairdresser comments on how soft and full my hair is every time.

This shade called moonlight glow is perfect for a beachy date night where you want a lil bit of glow. It's gorgeous!
