all my must haves/favs for skin, hair and makeup, body products
the densify collection from the rootist is a targeted 3-step hair wellness ritual designed for fine or thinning hair.
I usually wash my hair every 2-3 days because of how oily it is, but this is helping rebalance my scalp ph + I am obsessed with ho...
fuller, thicker hair routine
this has been my holy grail with the weather change, my skin is some what sensitive & this helps my face feel so clean. it’s a great feeling!
elf face cleanser
I just purchased this while looking for a toner to help absorb my other products and such and I actually love it so much, my sensitive skin soaks it up & it’s got a nice calming, cooling comfort to it!
abib heartleaf essence
I was recommended this by a friend and I have absolutely ZERO visible pores
paula’s choice toner
I use this usually morning and night, I always aim for night time just so my skin can absorb it better while I sleep, but I notice I have next to know visible pores & I absolutely love this!
cerave retinol serum with niacinamide
this serum has made such a drastic difference in my skin, I use it both in the morning and at night, a little goes a long way but it makes me feel very confident in my skin.
It doesn’t have a heavy fragrance or smell to it which is nice and I have ...
glow serum: propolis + niacinamide
I absolutely love how lightweight it is, I use it night and day, helps reduce the puffiness in my under eyes!
caffeine eye cream
I use this literally everyday, keeps my skin hydrated and soft! I do prefer a thicker cream especially in winter so this is a must have during postpartum, my skin is never balanced
everyday moisturizer
I love these because it’s a one time use, so no extra bacteria can be put into your pores/skin
skincare cloths (one time use)
absolutely LOVE these eye pads! I usually use them in the morning to help boost the glow on my face, and de-puff my under eyes before applying any sort of makeup
retinol + collagen under eye pads
I absolutely love this stuff, helps keep my lips hydrated and smooth, I find I don’t have to consistently reapply, it lasts a good while and is perfect for winter
medicated carmex
I rotate between this and the carmex lip balm. I get very dry lips in winter and this helps keep them moisturized
great lip balm for winter!
I love it, but you do have to reapply often + it sticks to your lips
summer fridays lip balm
I use only this to fill in my eyebrows, I use the shade ebony! this pencil has lasted me 2 years !!
anastasia beverly hills eyebrow pencil
I absolutely love using this exfoliating scrub! especially before shaving, it smells so good
coconut coffee body scrub
I love this for my brows and for my lashes when I don’t want to wear black mascara!
elf clear brow gel
I really love this, it curls nicely and doesn’t feel like i’m ripping my lashes off
elite eyelash curler
I ordered this in the beginning of 2024, I still have over half to last me a good while, I use them to shape my eyebrows and remove my moustache! 10/10
facial razors
I only use this brush in my hair, wet and dry!

the real stuff that’s got me through my pregnancy & postpartum journey— all the little things nobody tells you about but you’ll desperately need at some point no matter what season you’re in.
this isn’t a perfectly curated list; it’s what actua...
I personally love when a water bottle can keep my drink cold and my ice intact for more than 12 hours. while breastfeeding i’m constantly thirsty and this water bottle is just very aesthetically pleasing to me & it’s very easy to clean
the best water bottle — owala
these bras are easy for breastfeeding, comfortable!
cotton soft nursing bras
I lived in these while pregnant, during postpartum and STILL wear them. they hold everything in, never ride, always comfortable! I own 6+ pairs
mama cotton bump covering underwear
this saved me walking around, it helped lift baby and keep her snug and relieved so much back pain. 10/10 all mama’s need this
pregnancy belly band
this took up a good amount of space but was absolutely essential for majority of my pregnancy to help me sleep, I still flip-flopped like a rotisserie chicken but this made it easier
the BEST pregnancy pillow
I prefer these over any other brand, mainly price point. I used them for the first few months to avoid extra milk spillage on my bras/shirts
lansinoh breast pads
this pump is amazing, it’ll collect your let down when feeding on the opposite side! this is how i've built my freezer stash over 200+ oz of milk that I was able to donate to another mama in need for her baby!
it has great suction, and is easy to c...
haakaa milk collector
I love these bags, heavy duty compared to other brands, and I love the temp sensing on the bottom, optimal for bottle fed babes so you can ensure it’s not too hot or ice cold
momcozy milk bags
I loved my pump, it helped to relieve the discomfort when my breast were full and baby wasn’t ready to eat/asleep. helped build my freezer stash, has 9 different speeds, 7-8 rhythm’s of suction, and uses a C charger. the battery lasts a good while an...
momcozy s9 double pump
must haves for baby 🧸
what I absolutely loved as a first and second time mama! all essentials for the little bebe
I just bought this and so far my baby is loving it, I’ve used other brands of sleep sacks in the past but she’ll only sleep in her crib with this brand! it’s so soft and it’s triple layered so it feels weighted to help baby feel safe and secure while...
halo sleep sack
I always have this on hand for those harder boogers, I know I hate them, so do my kids. it’s got a few good tools for nails and ears, but I mainly use the scooper side for the boogies
fridababy nose picker
I absolutely hate when my kids are sick and are unable to clear their own noses, I swear by this little tool. it gets all the boogers out! the filters do need to be changed every time, but they are less than $6 at walmart.
fridababy nose sucker
I use this for my baby, I have since she was 2+ months, it works a lot easier than any other. I still use it to this day, comes with 2 tips. it’s very easy to clean and comes with a bag perfect for travel.
braun electric nasal aspirator
I’ve had this since my first baby (5 years) still works exceptionally, has multiple sounds, adjustable volume, plug in, no batteries. makes bed time so much smoother.
raynic sound machine
I love these bottles, they are easy to clean and sterilize for those first few months. I found both my girls latched well with these while still being nursed
tommee tippee bottles
I used these with my first baby, we had over 30.. a matching colour for every outfit. she loved them so much compared to all the other brands, my second will not take a paci but if she did—it would be this one
itzy ritzy paci’s
I absolutely loved this wrap, multiple ways to wear it, it’s comfortable not restricting at all, baby can nap while you get things done, I was gifted mine and loved it!
momcozy baby wrap
I love this and still use it even on myself! you can change between fahrenheit and celsius. battery operated
baby thermometer
the one we have says “dream baby monitor pro” on the bottom but this is the exact design and everything! I love that it doesn’t connect to Wi-Fi.
baby monitor we love
menstrual essentials 🩸
the things I genuinely can’t live without while menstruating
I need this on the more crampy days, helps alleviate the pain
hot waterbottle
I love using this for my back and or any other sore part of my body, but it helps to relax my uterus when it’s crampy
heated pad
I love these tampons, I prefer more natural options considering it goes into my body 👀
cotton organic tampons
holy f*ck, if you crave olive garden chocolate (even when your not menstruating) you need to get these! they are individually wrapped and are soooo good
olive garden chocolate DUPE!
my gf recommended this and I absolutely love it especially before and on my period, it helps me rest and it’s so good with some honey.
