items I've been in a bit of a slump lately, having a hard time prioritizing my own self care with two babies. Having a few staples to get rid of my dark circles and perk me up a bit has made it easy and not overwhelming to just do a quick five minutes and ...

Everyday Makeup Favourites
I use it to fill in my brows and achieve a natural "no makeup" look without (I hope) eyebrow blindess! I use the spoolie after filling in as well to make sure they don't look too filled in.
Brow Wiz
Don't mess with a good thing! I've tried so many different mascaras and always come back to old faithful; plus, it's more affordable
L’Oréal Paris Voluminous Original Mascara 8.5ml
This is the one I have, great brand and I'm a sucker for pink.
TWEEZERMAN Neon Great Grip Eyelash Curler Pink
The only thing I'm a bigger sucker for than pink, is disney! Great brand + Great theme = No brainer
Tweezerman Minnie Mouse Eyelash Curler
Normally I try to get away with dupes or more affordable options. The beauty blender (name brand) is actually the best one I've used. Saturate with water and then squeeze out, then it works like a charm. I haven't found another that can compete yet.

I have very dark undereye circles, think purple/brown. This hasn't erased them but it does tone it down or de-puff them to where I don't have people asking who hit me
Caffeine Solution 5% + EGCG
So I'm not sure if I just don't use this properly, but I don't find it particularly foamy at all. That said, I was really surprised at how good it is! I don't know if I have ever been able to tell before, but this feels really gentle. To the point wh...
CeraVe 2 Pack/16 fl oz Each Foaming Face Wash with Hyaluronic Acid and Niacinamide for Oily Skin
Drunk Elephant is a brand I HATE that I let myself try because it's so expensive but I do love it. This one I will mix with bronzing drops instead of foundation if I'm wanting that, and I also like the retinol cream because I was told to use it (very...
Protini™ Polypeptide Firming Refillable Moisturizer
Makeup
Love love love! So much more affordable than some of the other brands at sephora, with great pigmentation and a zillion colors. 10/10, no notes
35O Supernatural Glow Artistry Palette
This is a full coverage CC cream that I use instead of foundation and feel a lot better about since it has SPF 50. I do add some bronze and/or blush on top for a bit of dimension
Medium CC+ Cream with SPF 50+ - IT Cosmetics | Ulta Beauty
I add bronzing drops to foundation, CC cream, or sometimes just my face lotion. It gives a nice glow and helps match my face to the rest of my body
Copper Gold Bronzing Drops - e.l.f. Cosmetics | Ulta Beauty
Very obviously the best, right? I love that it isn't an overbearing coverage so I don't feel too "done" when wearing it

I asked for this for Christmas on a whim and immediately fell in LOVE. It made my overly long, zero-style post-pregnancy hair look like I had a professional blowout every day. (I've now gotten a haircut and still use and love it, but just saying it m...
Build your own Shark FlexStyle® Air Styling & Drying System - Black
I've had different brands of flat irons over the years, but in my experience CHI has been the best and lasts the longest. I have only had to replace my CHI once in 2+ decades of ownership.
LAVA 1 Inch Hairstyling Iron
My favourite heat protectant. I'm not sure why? Maybe I just like the smell. I know you're supposed to use heat protectant I just don't necessarily know how much it helps because you can't really tell unless you stop using it and fry your hair off.
44 Iron Guard Thermal Protection Spray
