I use this face cleanser almost every single day and it makes my skin feel properly washed and cleaned. Don’t use too much of it at once, a pea size is more than enough.
La Roche-Posay Effaclar Purifying Foaming Gel

I use this one every single day, it’s affordable and it lasts a really long time. If you want a face wash that’s a bit more gentle than the La Roche-Posay effaclar, I would go with this specific Cerave one.
CeraVe Foaming Face Wash - for Normal To Oily Skin

This was my introduction to retinols, and I bought it simply because I had a coupon for L’OrĂ©al products so I was like why not try it out. This thing is amazing (if used properly)! I noticed my skin being smoother and my acne scars fading much quicke...
L'Oreal Paris Revitalift Laser Retinol Night Serum

This was recommended to me because I have oily skin and it has become one of my staples. I actually noticed a big difference when I incorporated it in my skin care routine, so I always have to have at least one backup of it.
The Ordinary Squalane Cleanser

This product is honestly amazing, although most people use it on their face, I found it to be much more helpful for certain skin imperfections on the body. I noticed it calmed down the keratosis pilaris on both my arms and legs and helped with my sho...

I genuinely think that The Ordinary is one of the best brands, especially for the price. This azelaic acid really made a difference for me and is one of the key parts of my skin care, along with niacinamide and retinol. If you have oily and acne pron...

I've tried a couple of different niacinamide products and I always come back to this one, I feel like this The Ordinary one truly made a difference for me. It’s lightweight, affordable and it gets the job done. What more could you want😌
The Ordinary Niacinamide 10% + Zinc 1%

Great for keeping your skin hydrated if you have oily skin like I do, especially if you want to keep it light and don’t like anything feeling heavy on your face
The Ordinary Hyaluronic Acid 2% + B5

I've tried a lot of products that claimed “to help” with acne scars and redness but this cream is the one I keep going back to. Please use on the problematic spots only and don’t put it everywhere, your skin will be suuuper dry afterwards.
La Roche-Posay Effaclar Duo(+) Cream

An interesting caffeine serum that’s supposed to “wake up” your under eyes and help with slight irregularities. I liked it.
The Ordinary Caffeine Solution 5% + EGCG

Truly an amazing lip balm, I put it on every night before bed and it really does make a difference. If you’re one of those people who just can’t seem to find a good lip balm for dry lips try this one out!
La Roche-Posay Cicaplast Lip Balm

I've tried so many lip balms and for me this one was definitely the best, along with the La Roche-Posay lip balm treatment.

I’ve been gifted this cream but after I emptied it out I bought it again because it’s that good. I don’t like that sticky feeling on my hands and I don’t get that with this one, plus it really does get the job done and leaves my hands feeling super n...

If you’re on a hunt for a proper deodorant this is it! I’ve tried every single one under the sun but I always come back to this one. You will feel clean and fresh for a long time, even during the warmest summer days, that’s how good this product is. ...
