Cleansers

Squeaky clean cleansers. ♥

A powerful but gentle micellar water. It removes my makeup without rubbing, but is still kind to my sensitive skin. ♥

Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water

This matcha & coconut gel cleanser feels so good that I don't want to stop massaging my face when I use it. I'm not a big fan of matcha scent, but this one is mild and inoffensive. It leaves my skin feeling so soft, smooth, and clean but not stri...

Dew of the Gods Matcha My Energy Cream Cleanser

Exfoliators

Exfoliators that give you soft, glowing skin. ♥

After seeing this a million times on TikTok Shop, I finally bought it on sale. I LOVE this stuff, and so does everyone in my family. It's so gross but so effective, and leaves skin feeling really soft and smooth. The amount of gunk that comes out wil...

Dr. Melaxin Peel Shot Glow Black Rice Ampoule

This scrub smells delicious, works really well, and leaves my skin super smooth afterward. ♥

Bella Skin Beauty Espresso & Honey Face Exfoliator

Toners

Masters of restoring balance and prepping for skincare. ♥

I found this while searching for a new hydrating toner after my first full-size bottle ran out. I was interested in trying a milky toner and boy has this not disappointed. It leaves my skin so soothed, soft, and hydrated. ♥

BYOMA Hydrating Milky Toner

This was my first full-sized toner purchase. It smells amazing (natural rose scent) and helps the redness and inflammation I experience with my psoriasis and rosacea. It does tend to leave my skin a bit tacky, but I enjoy layering this beneath other ...

Bella Skin Beauty Rose Neroli Hydrating Toner

Moisturizers

Hydrate and moisturize with the best. ♥

I got to test this cream courtesy of Skinfix in exchange for my honest review and fell in love. Within 1-2 weeks my skin was softer, smoother, more plump. It also helps the redness on my cheeks and forehead. I'll never let myself run out of this. ♥

Skinfix Barrier+ Triple Lipid-Peptide Face Cream (Original Formula)

Masks

Deeply nourishing masks. ♥

An overnight peel off (or rinse off) mask that stays put all night once dried down. It peels off pretty easy in the morning and leaves you with skin as smooth as a baby's bottom. ♥

medicube Collagen Overnight Wrapping Mask

Primers

Makeup prep primers. ♥

My favorite green primer to reduce redness from my rosacea and psoriasis. On light or no makeup days, I'll wear this primer on its own just to help even out my skin tone. ♥

Elizabeth Mott Thank Me Later Color Correct Primer

A primer, SPF 30, and natural glow all in one. I often wear this as an SPF alone after my morning skincare and it makes me look radiant. ♥

e.l.f. Cosmetics Suntouchable Whoa Glow Primer with SPF 30

Lips

Pout-perfecting products. ♥

This is expensive for a lip scrub, BUT it's worth it. You only need a tiny amount, so the tube will last you a long time. Not only does it smell delicious, but it exfoliates really well without being too harsh. AND it leaves your lips feeling really ...

Passionfruit Refining Lip Scrub

Really nice, effective lip scrub that smells and tastes delicious. ♥ (Fav: brown sugar)

e.l.f. Lip Exfoliator

Perfect for after exfoliating, overnight, or whenever your lips could use some extra TLC. ♥

e.l.f. Holy Hydration! Lip Mask

This brand's whole thing is making products for sensitive skin, but these lip treatments are just good whether you have sensitive skin or not. They're lightly tinted, but I just LOVE how they make my lips feel. Really nice and slick and moisturized, ...

Tower 28 LipSoftie® Lip Treatment

Hydrating and beautiful sheer color, with a non-sticky glossy finish. ♥ (Fav: berry)

LANEIGE Lip Glowy Balm

A great hydrating, tinted gloss with strong color. ♥ (Fav: blackberry sorbet)

e.l.f. Glow Reviver Melting Lip Balm

I'm not a big balm girl, but this is the one I reach for when I do use one. It's uber hydrating and leaves my lips feeling soft and smooth, with none of that post-balm dryness and flaking. ♥ (Fav: vanilla bean)

Burt's Bees Moisturizing Lip Balm

An immediate favorite. Goes on like water, dries down to your regular lip texture without drying you out, and stained my lips for an entire night. ♥

e.l.f. Cosmetics Sheer For It Blush Tint

Bath & Body

Care for all of your skin equally. ♥

The best body wash I've tried by far. It smells heavenly and has a long-lasting scent. It lathers up really well with cloud-soft bubbles and it's plant-based with a biodegradable formula. You also get a lot of product for the price. ♥

Method Simply Nourish Body Wash Shea Butter

Deodorant

Keep the BO at bay. ♥

Actual magic in a bottle. Immediately removes existing BO and makes your sweat odorless, but you can also top off with your fav deo. ♥ (Fav: honeysuckle peony)

Bella Skin Beauty Probiotic Underarm Toner

My favorite whole body, aluminum-free deo by far. Coupled with the underarm toner on my list, this will have you smelling like flowers for days (or until your next shower). Peony rose is my fav scent, but they have many choices available. Plus it com...

Lume Solid Stick Deodorant

Tools

Brushes and pads and towels, oh my! ♥

Fantastic vegan, biodegradable towels to wipe off product/dry your face after a cleanse. Much more hygienic and better for skin than that cloth you don't wash often enough. Each towel is large and durable enough to use a couple times before disposal, so one box can last you upwards of two months with twice-a-day use. ♥

CLEAN SKIN CLUB XL Disposable Face Towelettes

My favorite cotton rounds! They're super inexpensive and higher quality than more expensive brands I've tried. These were the first to not leave little bits of cotton all over my face. ♥

Swisspers Premium Cotton Rounds

I love my makeup organizer! It's easy to put together and somewhat customizable. It has both small and large drawers, as well as an open top with dividers for easy access to your go-to products. An absolute must have for a bathroom with tiny counter ...
