My makeup always looks soft and subtle on my face, so I gravitate toward gentle, cool-toned products from Chinese, Korean, and Japanese brands. This is my everyday routine for a feminine, natural look with a little sparkle and softness; nothing heavy, nothing harsh, just skin and glow.

Since going back blonde, I have discovered the ultimate hair care routine that has made my hair GROW, become healthier and stronger! One thing about me: I DONT GATEKEEP💕💕
I have been struggling with hormonal acne due to birth control and just the chaos of my hormones. It's taken me years to find a routine/a brand I really love, finally. Welcome to my perfected routine of my skin care favourites. It is primarily built around Paula's Choice, with a few other brands incorporated as well. I also really struggle with ingrown hairs - I get waxed every month, and it's so much better than shaving, but I still get ingrowns. I have figured out the things that work!
These are my repeat skincare items! Things I buy again before I even run out just to make sure I always have them. I have sensitive skin that is on the dry side and all of these treat me well.
Manuka... The plant has sweet little white flowers that you will see on bush walks through New Zealand and only New Zealand. The honey bees love them which has allowed them to produce honey capable of healing. Australia has some species that are related but lack the same potency.

I am a mom of two and I stopped booking salon appointments about two years ago because I could never find a free ninety minutes.

your hair will be the healthiest, thickest, longest, & most luxurious it’s ever been after using these products😌 3 years ago, i had dry, brittle, thinning, bleach damaged hair— i took it upon myself to work hard on healing my hair & i did it through a combination of sew-in extensions for 8 months to save my confidence & an extensive haircare routine to fully bring my hair back to a healthy state & cultivate tons of new growth!
as someone with awful skin (scaly and dry as well as oily), i decided enough was enough. these in a consistent am/pm routine (using spf during the day and exfoliant at night) cleared my skin in about a week’s use. these are some of my favorites without overwhelming myself with too many products! i also have dermatillomania and skin pick and am trying to stop. i’ve found these to be helpful for reducing scarring and blemishes and the overall urge to pick!

I’m not a professional make up artist I’m just a girl who likes to try make up on her face and see what sticks. I love Sephora but I live in a small town and the closest Sephora store to me is 1.5 hours away. Safe to say, I’m a drug store warrior. Something about perusing the makeup aisle in seems less intimidating more natural. So here are my makeup faves for drugstore makeup. I have a few items on here that h got from Sephora as well. And by drug store I mean shoppers and other PC optimum stores because that’s where I usually go. Okay I’ll stop yapping now! Bye queens!!💕👅

Elf products are such amazing dupes for expensive brands BUT sometimes the dupes are just not it. These are a few that I’ve used and actually recommend
