I’ve been using the Coleman Compound for a few months and I can definitely tell a huge difference in hyperpigmentation/melasma and overall appearance of my skin. Mrs Derm has some great recommendations.

La Roche-Posay Anthelios Sunscreen SPF 50 is a new favorite! It’s lightweight yet provides plenty of coverage for sunny South Carolina.

Hair
I don’t own a hair dryer so anything for my hair must help it look and feel great au natural! My hair turned VERY wavy after having kids so I’m always looking for products that fight frizz and enhance curls. I also have to use super moisturizing sha...
This is THE styling product that I can’t live without. I think that I’ve used this for at least 8 years, probably longer. Nothing works as well as this! Keeps my hair smooth – yet not crunchy - in the Charleston humidity!
Moroccanoil - Curl Defining Cream
L’anza Healing Moisture Shampoo & Conditioner have been my steady favs for a few years. I have also tried so many different brands over the years and know that my hair needs quality moisture like L’anza.

I have the Liptide Lip Oil. It feels protective and makes my lips so soft.

My new favorite hand sanitizer. It’s slim and compact - fits in the smallest purse. The Limón scent is light and not overpowering at all. Refillable!!!!!
