When you don’t want to think too much about what to wear, these are reliable, cute, yet functional pieces to go to - especially with Fall coming up. I’ve repurchased some of these items myself. FYI - the shoes have been life savers for my feet!

These are my go-to hair products and tools! I have low-porosity, straight Asian hair—which means it takes longer to fully soak in water and dry. I’ve learned that lighter, protein-free products work best for me. Understanding hair porosity over the past few years has completely CHANGED THE GAME in how I care for my hair. I highly recommend learning your hair type and porosity—it really does make a difference!

This is my everyday, natural-finish, makeup for acne-prone skin. Most of these pass the pore clogging ingredient checker. The (*) products have a few flagged pore clogging ingredients. These products have worked really well for my skin, but everyone's skin (and acne trigger) is different. Be sure to patch test and listen to your skin!

I have combo, dehydrated skin. I've struggled so much with acne, closed comedones, and eczema. This is a curated list of skincare products I keep coming back to and have healed my skin barrier. I use a pore-clogging ingredient checker before using each product. Sometimes ingredients change on certain products. So I try to update them from time to time. I hope this list helps anyone else who’s navigating their skincare journey and looking for reliable, skin-soothing staples.
