Best cleansing oil for removing makeup at the end of the day. It’s essential as a first cleansing step to get spf, makeup and the day off your face before a second cleanse.
MARA Algae Enzyme Cleansing Oil Makeup Remover with Chia + Moringa
Really nice gentle gel cleanser. Doesn’t strip your skin so it feels soft and not squeaky. I’ve relied on this one for years!
Squalane + Amino Aloe Gentle Cleanser - Biossance
I switched to this gel cleanser in the last couple months and really like it! I go for the fragrance free version because I’m trying to avoid added fragrances. It’s really effective yet gentle and doesn’t dry the skin out.
Dieux Baptism Gentle Foaming Facial Gel Cleanser with Glycerin
An elite vitamin C serum with a silky face oil texture. Makes skin feel so alive, plump and fresh in the mornings and I notice it really helps brighten my face and reduce dark spots/help them disappear faster.
Sea Vitamin C Serum for Brightening Dark Spots & Redness with Algae - MARA
Big fan of this eye cream! The brightening effect is really wonderful instantly upon applying and seems to build over time. It makes me feel like I look more awake, and it's keeping the area around my eyes smooth and hydrated.
Bright & Tight Dark Circle Firming Eye Cream with Vitamin C & Peptides
Instant Angel Moisturizer | Lipid-Rich, Nourishing Face Cream
Makeup
The perfect spot corrector/overall complexion stick. Wears so naturally and blends like a dream. I don’t even always use foundation, many days I just use this! I’m shade Dune.
The Minimalist
You need SPF daily! And this one is my fave. I like a glowy dewy skin finish so this really helps achieve that. Often if I’m not doing full makeup I just apply this plus a little concealer and it evens my skin tone and makes me glow. Always get compl...
Supergoop! - Glowscreen Sunscreen SPF 40 PA+++
Use this to correct under eye circles or dark spots in a flash! Creamy texture that blends into skin nicely and layers well under concealer and foundation. I use shade 2.
Charlotte Tilbury Magic Vanish Color Corrector
It’s hyped for a reason, it turns out. I finally tried this and wow it’s good. Wears SO WELL all day long. Like, no creasing or anything at the end of my day. Looks really natural and fresh, nice finish. My skin seems to really like it, there’s no oi...
Luminous Silk Perfect Glow Flawless Oil-Free Foundation - Armani Beauty
I read that this is the best concealer brush out there and after having it since last year’s sale I agree! It blends concealer really well, especially love it for under eyes and to cover up spots and blemishes.
Rare Beauty by Selena Gomez Liquid Touch Concealer Brush
My usual daily blush. It’s so easy to use, just a quick glide on each cheek and then a little blending with a dense kabuki style brush. It gives such a healthy glowy flush. I use shade Minette which is a luminous peach.
Baby Cheeks Blush Stick - Westman Atelier
Super pigmented blush that blends nicely and wears really well. I tend to rotate between this one when I want a punchy flush and the Westman Atelier cream blush if I’m going for a more subtle glowy flush. A little goes a long way with this product so...
PATRICK TA Major Headlines Double-Take Crème & Powder Blush Duo
Really nice mascara that doesn’t bug my eyes. I find that some mascaras make me itchy and this one doesn’t! And importantly, it also doesn’t flake or smudge like some other clean mascaras do.
Tower 28 Beauty MakeWaves Lengthening + Volumizing Mascara
I use this brush for my cream blushes and bronzer! Helps melt and blend product seamlessly into my skin for a really perfect, natural finish. One of my most-used brushes for sure.
The Big Buffing Bronzer Brush - Saie
Eyeshadow that you absolutely cannot mess up! Goes on liquid and then dries down for a powdery natural finish. Blends super easily with a brush or your finger. I like shades 22 and 30, warm browns that are nice for day and night and make lighter eye ...
Armani Beauty Eye Tint Long-Lasting Liquid Eyeshadow
Only powder I've used for years now! I always get the mini because the price is better and I find it still lasts me AGES. Plus it's easier to store and travel with! I get shade 1 Fair
Mini Airbrush Flawless Finish Setting Powder - Charlotte Tilbury
Nice clean beauty brow pencil! I like that it has the pencil on one end and spoolie brush for blending on the other for really fast, easy application. I get shade Brown Black for my very dark brows. a little goes a long way, this is nicely pigmented ...

Hair & Body
The elite dry shampoo. Brings hair back to life like no other with incredible volume. I truly can’t live without this product.
K18 Biomimetic Hairscience AirWash™ Dry Shampoo
My go-to lately for my hair. I struggle with having fine hair but a lot of it, so it will get weighed down if a shampoo is too heavy on moisturizers and it will look greasy. This shampoo has been a great solve for volume and bouncy hair. Plus it smel...
Crown Affair The Volumizing Shampoo for Oily, Flat Hair
Love this lightweight and fast absorbing serum for the body. It’s great for when you’re fresh out of the shower or about to run out the door. In winter I use it before applying a heavier lotion for ultra-deep moisturizing and in the summer it’s my li...
Nécessaire The Body Serum - With Hyaluronic Acid
Makes skin SO soft and smooth, getting rid of any bumps or dry patches. I also think it helps heal and avoid ingrown hairs. This is one I always stock up on. I go for the non-scented one but there are some yummy scents too!
First Aid Beauty KP Bump Eraser Body Scrub with 10% AHA
I always have this on hand for when I need to really deep clean my hair. After one too many days of dry shampoo or an up-do with lots of product, or just for a good little maintenance wash, this shampoo makes my hair SO clean. Hair will stay feeling ...
Ouai Detox Shampoo
Feel like I've influenced so many people on this product! It's great for creating that slicked back bun look and taming flyaways, without being too heavy or getting hard and crusty. Love the wand applicator version for everyday and travel too!
dae Cactus Fruit 3-in-1 Styling Cream
Love this lightweight conditioner for fine hair! Smells nice, doesn't weight hair down, moisturizes well. I bought the big refill pouch several months ago and just refill my conditioner bottle with that when I run low!
Ouai Fine Hair Conditioner
