I was originally gifted this postpartum with my first & WOW, it was a lifesaver. After a long day, and preparing for a potentially sleepless night, this has been my little bit of self-care to make me feel whole again. My tired, dull postpartum sk...
Water Sleeping Mask: Overnight Hydrating Face Mask - Laneige
A juicy, hydrating glossy balm for my lips! Natural enough that it goes with my “mom on the go” look while still allowing me to feel slightly elevated.
Lip Glowy Balm Moisturize & Nourish - Laneige
A staple of mine since before mama-hood. This mask is so nourishing it makes my lips feel more plump with hydration.
Lip Sleeping Mask Nourish & Hydrate - Laneige
Hate that the packaging is ugly. LOVE EVERYTHING ELSE! Seriously the best moisturizer I’ve ever tried in my 35 years of life. Leaves skin feeling so soft and moisturized without ending up too oily or dry. Love that it is “basic” and doesn’t have a to...
Daily Facial Moisturizer with Hyaluronic Acid and Ceramides - VANICREAM | Ulta Beauty
Love using this in the summer as almost a primer to my minimal makeup look. The SPF is key, and I love having vitamin C in my skincare routine as I feel it really does help with fine lines!
5% Vitamin C Sheer Moisturizer SPF 50
Love OH products! They are a bit of a splurge but amazing quality. This is my favorite for nighttime, although I do not use when pregnant/breastfeeding. It really snatches my skin, makes it feel and visibly appear tighter while fighting off my fine l...
Dewtopia 20% Acid Night Treatment
Absolute favorite of all-time facial cleanser. Love the gentle exfoliation, because is your skin even clean if you don’t have exfoliation?!
Rare Earth Deep Pore Daily Exfoliating Face Cleanser
Makeup
This is a staple in my mom uniform — I don’t wear a lot of makeup anymore but this helps me look & feel a bit more put together. When my baby or toddler kept me up all night, I can trust Merit to make me look alive again.
The Minimalist - MERIT Beauty
This brush is SO soft & works perfectly to blend the complexion stick.
Brush No.1 - MERIT Beauty
Recently started using blush & this stick works like magic. Just enough tint to look natural which is 👌🏻
Cheeks - Versed
Another fav of many years for me. Appreciate that it isn’t sparkly like some bronzers can be. This is a nice matte finish that keeps the shine away.
park ave princess™ waterproof face & body bronzer - Tarte
Gives such a voluminous curly lash!
Lancôme Monsieur Big Volumizing Mascara Black
I’ve been using this for years. A setting spray that really keeps up for hours, even when chasing toddlers & babies around.
All Nighter Waterproof Makeup Setting Spray - Urban Decay
I don’t wear eyeliner often but when I do I love that this is double sided to glide on as a gel liner or apply as a liquid liner. So easy to apply and stays on!
Tarte - double take eyeliner
I don’t wear eyeshadow often but this is the perfect neutral selection. Goes on so smooth and doesn’t smudge everywhere.
Naked2 Basics Matte Neutral Eyeshadow Palette - Urban Decay Cosmetics | Ulta Beauty
Cheap and gets the job done! My postpartum eyelashes ain’t what they used to be! This helps bring back my curly lashes without damaging!
Eyelash Curler - e.l.f. Cosmetics | Ulta Beauty
Lifesaver for filling in my too skinny, won’t grow back, eyebrows. Easy to apply with very thin stroke to allow for realistic application.
Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Wiz Eyebrow Pencil
Hair Care
I’ll take self-care wherever I can get it. Something about these cozy scrunchies absorbing my wet hair after a shower brings me true joy. Helpful to aid in a kickstart to an air dry or blow dry.
Kitsch Microfiber Quick-Dry Hair Towel Scrunchie, 2pcs
Mom Uniform
I can credit these slip on shoes to saving my sanity at least once a week. Being able to just step into my shoes while my hands are full and while trying to wrangle my baby and toddler is KEY to keeping some sanity.
Kizik Athens 2 Women's Slip On Shoes, Wide Toe
I have 5+ of these in various colors, mostly black, and they are my staple for summer as a mama. I don’t need to think about my outfit but still feel cute while being in a comfortable, cozy outfit for chasing my kids.
Ewedoos Women's Athletic Tennis Dress with Shorts
Fall/winter staple for me — perfect layer for underneath a vest or jacket.
ANRABESS Women Rib Knit Slim Fit Long Sleeve Tee
A vest is my staple for the fall/spring seasons of motherhood for me. Absolutely love this one. So cozy, comes in many colors.
MEROKEETY Womens 2025 Puffer Vest Quilted
I love cozy, cute pajamas for around the house. These are SO SOFT! An Eberjey level softness dupe. High quality and so many colors to choose from.
