Skincare & Makeup
I'd say I'm not minimalistic but also not a 15 step routine kinda gal. I have my basics that I love. I do the same morning and night routine. And it takes me 10 minutes to do my makeup, tops. These are my go-to's now that I'm in my mid 30's.
A staple in my skincare! Especially in my 30’s.
Hyaluronic Acid 2% + B5 (with Ceramides) | The Ordinary
I swear by this stuff. Living in New England my entire life, my skin just gets SO dry. I couldn't even wear makeup at one point. Until I found this magic.
L'Oreal Paris Hydra Genius Moisturizer
My skin is combo but much more dry in the winter and this does not dry it out at all. I also put some on my scalp before wash day & it helps so much with my dry winter scalp!
Glycolic Acid 7% Exfoliating Toner | The Ordinary
On the rare occasion I throw on some false lashes, these Kiss lashes are what I make sure I have ready to go. They are easy to apply, last until even the next day, and don't rip your own lashes off when removing.
KISS So Wispy Lash Multipack - Pixie
Let's just say, I put this on in Miami heat, 7 hours before the ERA'S TOUR, danced my butt off, and still had perfectly placed makeup at midnight.
All Nighter Waterproof Makeup Setting Spray - Urban Decay
Only powder I will use. Ever.
Infallible 24H Fresh Wear Powder Foundation - L'Oréal Paris
This mascara is the reason I do not need to wear false lashes everyday! Bonus … its only $5!
Lash Princess False Lash Mascara - Essence
I have to stock up on this because I'm afraid one day it'll be out of stock and I just can't live like that.
Lip Sleeping Mask Nourish & Hydrate - Laneige
Clothing
Now that I'm in my mid 30's, a mom, always on the go and able to wear casual clothes at work, I rely on COMFY. Life is too short to be uncomfortable in your clothes.
The BEST most COMFIEST pajamas. I’ve spoiled myself and now won’t wear anything else at night. Also come in shorts/short sleeve or nightgowns.
Women's Bamboo Viscose Pajamas - Little Sleepies
The only leggings I will wear. And that says a lot considering I wear leggings every single day.
Women's Leggings & Yoga Pants for Women | OFFLINE by Aerie
Bra's can be obnoxious, let's be honest. A lot of the aerie wireless and seamless ones are some of the few I actually don't mind wearing.
Wireless Bras by Aerie
When I do wear jeans, I only wear AE. So comfy, always the right fit, and they last! You can usually always get a sale too! We <3 AE.
AE Next Level High-Waisted Jean from American Eagle
Hair
I have long (more than halfway down my back), thick, colored hair. 99% of the time, I also need it out of my face. These are my must haves.
2 words: game changer.
Hair Brush Dryer from L'ange
I personally use the Perk Up of this because I'm a 2x a week hair washer. Bonus, it is talc free!
Dry Shampoo by Amika
If you see me, you see a claw clip. I really like these smaller one's for when I just want to put half of my hair up. I like the matte feel too for a better hold.
Medium Claw Clips Pack – Medium
Day to Day
Certain things you just *need*, here are mine!
I personally use this one for my ice coffee and the ice literally could stay fresh in this for a couple of days. Do I need every color? Yes.
Tumblers - Simple Modern
I really wanted a bluetooth scale that didn't break the bank and this one is it!
Smart Scale with Bluetooth
I have two of these. One on my keys, and one in my purse easy to grab if I just need it on walks or a quick run out to my car at night. It is LOUD and the light that goes off is super bright too.
Birdie Personal Safety Alarm
The best press ons! These last me almost 2 weeks.
