I have tried MANY foundations from drug store brands to luxury (Chanel, Haus Labs, Pat McGrath, etc) and this Luminous Silk foundation by Giorgio Armani is hands down the best. As someone whose face gets oily throughout the day, this offers buildable...
Giorgio Armani Luminous Silk Foundation
As someone who has struggled with preventing my makeup from sliding off my face throughout the day and ending up shiny, this setting spray is a complete game changer. I opted for the Bridal version to give myself a little extra hold against sweat and...
Skindinavia Setting Spray - Bridal
Throw out all those other primers (aside from one other one I use along with this one) because the Skin Fetisher primer by Pat McGrath Labs is all you need. As someone with an oily t-zone, this one keeps my makeup matte looking all day and it is extr...
Pat McGrath Labs Skin Fetish Primer
After allowing my moisturizer to set in, I add this on top before working on my eye makeup. Before I start on my face makeup, I add the Pat McGrath Labs Skin Fetish Primer on top and let it dry completely. My foundation is locked in with this routine...
Elf Poreless Putty Face Primer
The pictures don't lie. I will never use another mascara and I have tried A TON. I have used Better Than Sex, all the Tarte varieties, Essence brand, and many different drug store brands. As someone with blonde eyelashes, this gives me volume and len...
Maybelline Lash Sensational Sky High® Mascara
If you're not using a mascara primer, you need to start! The Sky High mascara is already amazing on its own, but when you add in the matching primer, it takes your lashes to a whole new level.
Lash Sensational Sky High® Tinted Primer Mascara Makeup
The pigment on this highlighter is next level. A little bit goes a long way and it glides on so smooth. I've used both powder and liquid highlighters and I will never go back to a liquid after using this one.
Pat McGrath Labs Skin Fetish: Divine Glow Highlighter
If I had to pick between a powder and a liquid blush, I would pick the powder, hands down. This blush offers a nice buildable coverage and is nicely pigmented. It goes on so smooth without taking makup off underneath like the liquid blushes tend to d...
Pat McGrath Labs Skin Fetish: Divine Blush
This bronzer has such a nice pigment to it and is easily buildable. It doesn't go on too strong and blends nicely. Unlike stick bronzers, this one doesn't lift the foundation off my skin when I apply it either.
Pat McGrath Labs Skin Fetish: Divine Bronzer
Holy pigment. This eyeshadow palette is not only STUNNING but the colors are so pigmented. I see why this is one of Taylor Swift's favorite brands. I have been a long time Tarte, Colour Pop, and Naked palette user, but this blows all of those brands ...
Pat McGrath Labs Venus in Fleurs Luxe Quad: Voyeuristic Vixen
I am a foundation snob and have used anything from drug store brands all the way up to designer brands that are $70+ a bottle. I am a sucker for a good Facebook ad so when I saw SkinShield I was intrigued by the try before you buy option. It had me t...
SkinShield
Skin
I recently started a nightly skin routine and this cleanser leaves my skin feeling refreshed. I use this cleanser on the nights I don't need to remove makeup (use the oil based cleanser for that). The scent can be a bit on the strong side, but it sme...
Tata Harper Regenerating Cleanser
I am a Tata Harper stan. When I need to remove my makeup, this is my go-to cleanser. It's very lightweight and a little goes a long way. One bottle will last forever. Like most Tata Harper products, the scent can be a bit strong, but it's at least a ...
Tata Harper Nourishing Oil Cleanser
This moisturizer is so lightweight. A bit expensive for a small bottle, but worth every penny. I only reserve this one for nighttime due to the cost and small size, but I use this after I have cleansed my face, added toner, and a retinol or exfoliant...
Tata Harper Repairative Moisturizer
A little of this toner goes a looooong way. I have always had large pores. I used to use the Byoma toner, but quickly made the switch to this after seeing how smooth it leaves my skin and shrinks my pores.
Paula's Choice Pore Reducing Toner
I did EXTENSIVE research when embarking on my newly developed skin journey. I use this exfoliant about twice a week. This is so gentle and doesn't contain any grittiness that will leave your skin stripped and irritated. The best part is, you don't wa...
Paula's Choice SKIN PERFECTING 2% BHA Liquid Exfoliant
If you're looking for a budget friendly skin care regimen, I highly recommend anything from the Byoma brand. Serums tend to be expensive, but Byoma offers luxury products at drug store prices. They even have a quiz to help you figure out the best rou...
BYOMA
I came across these Clean Skin Club towels via a recommendation on TikTok and they are absolutely amazing. I have used both the standard and the sensitive skin with exfoliation. These leave my skin feeling so fresh and clean after I use them to rinse...
Clean Skin Club Clean Towels
I have been looking for an affordable nightly eye cream that actually helps rejuvenate, brighten, and shrink the bags under my eyes. This Clean Skin Club eye cream does wonders for my under eyes. A little goes a looooong way so one jar will last you ...
Clean Skin Club Stem Cell+ Brightening Eye Cream
I have been using these makeup eraser towels for years and they are a godsend when it comes to easily taking off your eye makeup at night. I love their 7-day sets, which are perfect for travel. They always have fun themed packs too.
The Original MakeUp Eraser
I love that every product from Tata Harper smells like a different botanical. I use this moisturizer before bed as it’s a bit heavier and can soak in overnight.
Tara Harper Water-Lock Moisturizer
Hair
One of the best parts about this shampoo is the smell. The rose scent is the perfect strength that it will leave your hair smelling fresh all day without being overpowering. It's a bit on the pricey side, especially for such a small bottle, but I use...
Christophe Robin Volumising Shampoo
I was skeptical the first time I used this when I opened it up and saw the gritty texture, but once I starting massaging this paste into my hair, the gritty texture disappeared and it lathered up so nicely. Rather than shampooing twice, I use this pa...
Christophe Robin Cleansing Volumising Paste
I can't say enough good things about Christophe Robin. The smell is so light and fresh. I use the Christophe Robin Volumising Shampoo and Paste before the conditioner and it leaves my hair feeling so soft and healthy. The only downside is you get a s...
Christophe Robin Delicate Volumizing Conditioner
I have naturally oily hair that requires me to usually wash my hair every day. I've tried many dry shampoos and was still left with oil, but this dry shampoo is amazing. The scent is strong, but smells good and leaves your hair smelling good all day ...
Ouai Super Dry Shampoo - Melrose Place
A Good Ass Hair Day Dry Shampoo is my best kept secret. The part is they have one made specifically for dark hair that uses cocoa powder so it doesn't leave a residue. Unlike traditional dry shampoos, this one is a powder. Spray is on before you go t...
Good Ass Hair Day Dark Dry Shampoo
This is my second Shark hair dryer, but the nice thing about the FlexStyle is that it's not only a hair dryer, but can also be used as a straightener and a curler. This is so lightweight and makes traveling easier because now I only need to bring one...
Shark® FlexStyle
My hair can be very finicky. I dye it red tones, I shed like crazy, and my roots tend to get oily quick. This shampoo and conditioner set has kept my red color from fading as fast, makes my hair smell WONDERFUL, and has breathed new life into it.
Goldwell Dualsenses Color Brilliance Shampoo & Conditioner
My hair is THRIVING on this oil. I use one pump on wet hair (avoid the roots) and once my hair is dry, weather I let it air dry or use a blower, my hair is the softest and shiniest it has ever been.
Elixir Ultime | Beautifying Oil Hair Care
My hair tends to get oily quick so I was a bit reluctant to use this, but I was so wrong. I use this either after a shower on my roots or before bed on dry hair. Either way, the oil soaks in without leaving my hair oily and greasy. And the smell is s...
Genesis Serum Strengthening Scalp and Hair Serum | Kérastase
First of all, this shampoo smells so good and leaves my hair smelling freshly washed all day. Because of the price, I only use it once a week, but when I do, I can’t wait. My hair is so soft and shiny.
Bain Chroma Respect Shampoo
Paid this with the shampoo and your hair will be left smelling fresh, shiny, and soft.
Chroma Absolu Fondant Cica Chroma Conditioner
Body
I use this body wash purely for the scent because it's so amazing. You can't go wrong with any scent that Ouai offers. It lingers on your body well after you step out of the shower (in a good way).
Ouai Body Cleanser - St. Barts Scent
