items Alright, I'm as low maintenance as they come. I don't wear makeup most days. I'm not big into hair products. My hair actively resists any styling and falls flat. But there are still some things that I swear by and here they are. Do I use all these pr...

Makeup for the Low Maintenance girl
Miracle worker. That's my best description. I have chronic under eye circles and I've tried all sorts of concealers. They are either all too cakey, don't blend well, or bother my sensitive eyes. Catrice goes on smoothly and disappears. I can wear it ...
Under Eye Brightener
If you tend to skip the drugstore brands, make an exception for this. I have short thin lashes. I'm a sucker for a new mascara that promises great things. But I always come back to this one. It starts with a base coat that sets in seconds. That is fo...
Blackest Black Double Extend Beauty Tubes Lengthening Mascara - L'Oréal | Ulta Beauty
I love this foundation so much! It is so lightweight, but provides natural coverage. It rarely needs touch ups and I'm still looking good at the end of the day. The variety of colors it offers means almost anyone can find their shade. Disclaimer: doe...
Beyond Perfecting™ Foundation + Concealer
All about the hair
This stuff is the real deal. I've been using this brand for probably 20 years. This shampoo conditioner combo is what I use in dry winter months. It's lightweight and keeps my hair manageable. It smells amazing too. Also: no bad stuff. A stylist frie...
OGX Renewing + Argan Oil of Morocco Moisturizing Daily Shampoo & Conditioner Set, 13 fl oz
Sometimes a girl does actually have to do her hair. And when I do, this is my secret weapon. I have a TON of hair, but it's also very fine and very straight and falls flat. This spray helps it maintain its volume. It's also handy as a texturized and ...
Volume Boost Volumizing Spray for Fine Hair - Biolage | Ulta Beauty
OGX again! Yes, I love this brand. I used to use a serum that I worked through my hair with my hands to protect from heat damage. It worked well but often left my hair feeling heavy. This spray is so much better! A few quick sprays on wet hair, brush...
OGX Protecting + Silk Blowout Quick Drying Thermal Spray - 6 fl oz
Skincare is key!
This is, and will be for a long time, my daily skincare regimen. The results are real. I firmly believe that good skincare reduces the need for makeup!
REVERSE Regimen
I am ruthless with sunscreen application for my family, especially in the summer. We are outside as much as possible year round and if anything is exposed, it's our faces. I think we have a tube of this in every pool bag, backpack, and toiletry bag w...
CeraVe Hydrating 100% Mineral Sunscreen for Face - SPF 50 - 2.5 fl oz
If you saw my mascara Rec, you know my issues with my lashes. I once was chosen for a "before and after" trial for Rodan + Fields lash boost. Skeptical was putting it mildly. My husband actually laughed at the prospect of this stuff working too.
We...

Why am I still getting zits in my 40s? Well, I don't know. But I do know dealing with them is way easier than it was in my teens. One of these patches, left overnight on an offending spot, greatly reduces the annoyance. Two nights of use is practical...
72 ct Mighty Patch Original Acne Pimple Patches - Hero Cosmetics | Ulta Beauty
These are the real deal. Moisturizing and energizing and I can really feel the difference. I would expect nothing less from Mario Badescu.
