Skincare Favorites
{Tools}
1. Clarisonic mia 1 – i purchased the clarisonic last winter after having it on my wishlist for awhile. it was the best thing i could have done for my skin. i will admit at first it was hard because the clarisonic brought all the dirt/oil/nastiness under my skin to the surface and my skin went through the purging process. during the purging process i had some bad acne for awhile, it felt like several weeks to be hoenst. But now being on the other side it was totally worth it, my skin stays very clear and i really only breakout around my period.
2. dermaflash 2.0 Luxe Facial Exfoliation & Peach Fuzz Removal – this tool is a total game changer. it removes dead skin cells, built-up debris, and pesky peach fuzz.
3. De-Puffing Jade Facial Roller – i keep mine in the fridge and use it on my face every morning. it helps depuff your entire face (especially around your eyes) and also helps with sinus drainage and relief.
{cleansers + products}
1. Kiehl’s Ultra Facial Cleanser – my favorite moisturizing cream cleanser.
2. Sunday Riley Ceramic Slip Clay Cleanser – okay, so this cleanser will cost you a pretty penny but i think it’s so worth it and here’s why. i will use this clay cleanser after the above kiehl’s cleanser and i can honestly feel it start to go to work the second i put it on my skin. it starts to tingly in a good way and i can feel it cleaning out my pores and tightening them as well.
3. Fresh Rose Deep Hydration Facial Toner – this toner is alcohol free so it won’t strip your natural oil and this specific toner also helps tighten pores, which i’m all about.
4. Sunday riley U.F.O. Ultra-Clarifying Face Oil – love love love this stuff. this is really the only product i use to treat acne and it works. if you give this product a try be sure to start slow and use it every other day at first as your skin will go through a purging stage here (similar to the clarisonic)
5. sunday riley Good Genes All-In-One Lactic Acid Treatment – this is what i use as helps cure Dullness and uneven texture, Dark spots from sun damage + aging, and Fine lines and wrinkles.
6. glam glow SUPERMUD CLEARING TREATMENT – my favorite mask out there, it not only cleans out and tightens your pores but also really helps treat acne. i will use this mask as a spot treatment and wear it to bed on my breakouts. when i wake up the areas i treated are either 1/2 their size or completely gone.
7. Kiehl’s Midnight Recovery Concentrate – when my skin is feeling extra dry i like to use this midnight recovery oil by kieehl’s. i wake up with glowing and hydrating skin.
8. kiehl’s Ultra Facial Cream SPF 30 – my favorite moisturizer, no mater what moisturizer you choose to use make sure it has spf!
9. peter thomas roth 24K Gold Pure Luxury Lift & Firm Hydra-Gel Eye Patches – these patches are great to wear in the morning if you have enough time. my bestie and i like to wear these when we go down to the lake for the weekend after a long night having fun. these eye patches do exactly what they claim, lift, hydrate, and reduce puffiness.
Make-up Favorites
1. Photo Finish Pore Minimizing Primer – as if you haven’t heard me say it before, i have a problem with enlarged pores so this primer is a life savor for me!
2. nars Sheer Glow Foundation – my favorite foundation i’ve found to date. this medium & buildable coverage foundation leaves your skin with a radiant finish that enhances the look of skin, without masking the natural complexion.
3.HOOLA MATTE BRONZER by BENEFIT COSMETICS – this is my favorite bronzer, it goes on so smooth and blends well. i don’t like my bronzers to have shimmer because i like to apply my bronzer all over my face and then leave the shimmer to my highlighter.
4. becca Shimmering Skin Perfector Pressed Highlighter – this is the holy grail of powdered highlighters. i looove this stuff, i really don’t know what else to say besides the results speak for themselves.
5. charlotte tilbury Hollywood Beauty Highlighter Wand – & this is hands down my favorite liquid highlighter. i specifically like to use this one on my cheekbones and collar bones.
6. charlotte Legendary Lashes Volume 2 Mascara – volumizing, thickening mascara that gives my eye’s a doe like appearance.
7. tarte Amazonian Clay 12-Hour Blush – my favorite blush from sephora!
8. Anastasia Beverly Hills clear brow gel – love this clear brow gel!
9. urban decay All Nighter Long -Lasting Makeup Setting Spray – the only setting spray i’ll use, if it ain’t broke don’t fix it, right?
lip care + color favorites
1. laneige Lip Sleeping Mask – this leave on lip mask soothes and hydrates your lips and even gives them a nice little plump. this mask is meant to be worn over night but i love it so much i swear it throughout the day as well.
2. Kiehl’s Lip Balm #1 – this is a great everyday chapstick i keep in my purse and beach/lake bag all the time.
3. buxom Powerplump Lip Balm – love this lip balm too, it’s a plumping and hydrating lip balm that blooms to a sheer pink tint to amp up lip color. the coolest part about this particular lip balm is the color it blooms to is based on your personal ph balance meaning it will look slightly different on everyone.
4. lancome Matte Shaker High Pigment Liquid Lipstick – so i just picked up this liquid lipstick a couple weeks ago and absolutley lovvve it! its pillow-like cushion applicator itself makes this lipstick so unique and fun to apply. i’ve been wearing color 265 I Like To Mauve It! – frosted pink.
5. SUPERGOOP! SHINE ON LIP SCREEN BROAD SPECTRUM SPF 50 – I HAVE TO HAVE A LIP GLOSS WITH SUNSCREEN IN THE SUMMER TIME AND THIS ONE BY SUPERGOOP! IS MY FAVORITE.
6. TOO FACED LIP INJECTION EXTREME – THE OG OF LIP PLUMPERS, I USE THIS CLEAR PLUMPING GLOSS OVER ALL MY LIP COLORS.
