items Treating yourself with kindness and grace is maybe the most important thing you can do. It trickles down to everything in your life—your mood, your mental and physical health, the way you treat other people, etc. But being kind to yourself can be a l...
I personally like products that feel like they're improving/enhancing my natural skin and hair rather than covering up imperfections. Additionally, I love a full face of makeup for special occasions, but most days I'm only rocking my skincare and may...

Skincare, My Beloved
Alright boys and girls, Make Me Over
Skincare, My Beloved
I am more consistent with my skincare than I am with checking my mail, that's how much I love it.
The beginning of my every day night routine. I love this cleanser. I'll sometimes even use it in the morning, when I'm pretty notorious for really just going in with a serum and/or moisturizer and calling it good. This is very light and gentle whiel ...
La Roche-Posay Toleriane Hydrating Gentle Facial Cleanser
This is pretty much THE toner. Excellent, not too harsh, inexpensive. An A+ product. A few splashes of this on a cotton pad right after cleansing and you're good to go.
CeraVe Hydrating Toner
My go-to hyleronic acid serum. This is so hydrating and soothing, and it comes in an aestheticly pleasing bottle with a pump that makes a good amount of product come out. I throw this on right after toning and then either brush my teeth or put on lot...
Minéral 89 Hyaluronic Acid Skincare | Vichy Laboratoires
The Ordinary is where to go for retinol. Their info is very clear and well-explained. They have a great chart that lays out your options and where you should likely fall based on your experience as a retinol user. I'm currently at the third step (int...
I do apply retinol almost every night (barring any extra irritation or major sun exposure) but never in the morning (BE CAREFUL), and adding it to my routine has dramatically improved my skin quality and texture. Cannot recommend enough. However, mak...

Retinol 0.5% in Squalane
Gold. This is the best-feeling product I've ever put on my skin. It's so soft and pillowy. A true delight to apply. Great for the dark undereye circles I have been dealing with more and more lately. A small amount under each eye (there's an applicato...
ETUDE Moistfull Collagen Korean Eye Cream
My beloved. If you're hesitant about the snail thing, I get it, but friends, this is the holy grail of moisturizers, especially if you have dry skin. I LOVE this product. When it's being elusive because so many people are buying it, I genuinely get a...
COSRX Snail Mucin 92% Face Moisturizer
A wonderful vitamin C serum. I apply this in the morning as the start to my day. It's very liquidy, runs fast, but it definitely brightens me up. Got my mom hooked on this as well, and she's notoriously not great at sticking to a skincare regimen.
Glow Maker, Vitamin C Serum with Ferulic & Hyaluronic Acid
Accidentally bought the gummy bear flavor without intending to, but turns out I like it just as much if not more than the berry flavor. This is excellent, very restorative. I'm known for biting my lips when anxiety gets the best of me, and this helps...
Laneige Lip Sleeping Mask
Love this lotion. Very hydrating, dries quickly, smells comforting and warm. Lots of scents on offer, but this is my preferred. I've tried the pistachio and the fresh + cozy, but the pistachio was too sweet for me and I wanted more warmth to the scen...
eos Shea Better Vanilla Cashmere Body Lotion
Alright boys and girls, Make Me Over
If you knew this was a Smash quote, we should be friends
Received a full-size tube as a free sample with my perfume purchase, and I was blown away by this primer's performance. It's so smooth and lightweight, dries quickly, and has noticably protected my skin better than my previous primer. I'm almost at t...
Futurist Aqua Brilliance™ Watery Glow Primer
This product CHANGED me. If I could recommend one makeup product only forevermore, it'd be this one. I use the shade rosy, and it's divine. This tone up cream evens out my skin tone like nothing else. It blurs pores just enough to feel comfortable wi...
[PERIPERA] Milk Blur Tone Up Cream
I've been using Fenty concealor for a decade, at this point. The formula is excellent, the coverage is buildable, and the texture is pleasing. I've tried other brands and even had good results, but this is my tried and true. It's probably the heavies...
Fenty Concealor
Another product I've been using for eons. I legitamitely started using this in high school. I know there are a million press powders out there that may or may not perform better, but this gets the job done, is nonreactive for my skin, and is comparat...
SkinClearing Mineral Powder
Another mainstay that I'm dedicated to despite so many new products in the last few years. I really trust Clinique with my skin, and the 02 Sunkissed shade of this product has always make me look wonderful and never made me break out. I wear it both ...
True Bronze™ Pressed Powder Bronzer
My favorite blush shade, and you can find it in a drugstore. This is the perfect pink for someone with fair/light skin. I have neutral undertones, and this shade (fard à joues) really brings out the warmth and youth in my skin. If you like the sun-ki...
L'Oreal Paris True Match Powder Blush
A million black eyeliner pens out there, but this is a staple for me. The tip is the right thickness for a solid line, but the point is tapered enough to allow for really thin linework if that's your preference. It's easy to use (taught my mother how...
I loved a fun-colored eye liner. It's my signature funky makeup choice when I'm being playful. And I will add those as well. But this is the hold-down-the-house black.

H2O (Waterproof) Black Eyeliner Pen
First got this as a full-size free sample with my perfume purchase (shoutout to Estée Lauder on how they bring in/keep customers, because full-size samples are 1. amazing and 2. have ALL been bangers that I will be purchasing myself when I run out). ...
Sumptuous Extreme Lash Multiplying Volume Mascara
If you like glitter, buy this. Full stop. I once spent 2 hours hunting this down to restock because I realized I was out when I had an event coming up. The glitter factor here is out of this world. I love a glitter eyeshadow and I straight-up don't n...
ETUDE - Mirror Holic Liquid Eyes - 14 Colors
Alright, into my fantasy eyeliner colors. I use the Nyx liner for my baby blue and baby pink shades. Not sure if the photo on their site is from a reformulated version where the colors are darker now or if they just look that way in the picture but a...
NYX PROFESSIONAL MAKEUP Epic Wear Liner Stick ...
Onto red. Tried these liners out years ago, and while I do like them, they're true liquid liners, which isn't my preferred form. I can apply them fine even though I don't have the greatest eyeliner-applying hand, but it's more finicky than my other f...
I haven't tried the gold because I had a different gold eyeliner pencil that I LOVED when I bought this set. Alas, it broke a year or two ago and I can't remember the brand. RIP gold eye pencil. You are missed.

Colourpop Harry Potter Gryffindor Graphix Ink Liner ...
Another one for the glitter babies. I bought this because 1. glitter, duh. and 2. nostalgia. I love Sailor Moon so when I saw the collab I had to try it. I've been working through my little pot for years now, and I still really like it. It's not a fu...
Colourpop Sailor Moon Prism Power Glitter Gel
My favorite red lip. The color is stunning and the texture is so smooth. It leans cool-toned and is on the soft side. Only downside is this will smear if you wear it before eating. Set it or beware.
Bare Minerals Lipstick: Seriously Red
My go-to berry shade. Wears well and is less likely to smear. Consistency is good and it goes on easy. It has a smell to it that I personally like, but if you're sensative to that, be careful. This is rich and dark and bordering on a wine shade, but ...
L'Oreal Paris Colour Riche Satin Lipstick 137 Berry Parisienne
My favorite rose shade. Clinique once again having my back. This is lovely and a light enough shade to feel pink without making you feel like you're wearing pink. One of my day shades. Consistency is comfortable, but needs a few coats if you want a d...
Clinique Different Lipstick Rose Taffy for sale online
My wine shade. Yupp, you guessed it, got this as a full-size free sample originally, and ended up loving it. This is deep and rich and addicting. Smooth consistency, stays in place, doesn't typically smear. Just gorgeous.
