I could spend days in Sephora. I am verrrrry passionate about anything hair + skin care. I try a loooot of skin care + wanted to share my reviews with you!
MAKE UP :
KIEHLS GLOW FORMULA SKIN HYDRATOR: add this before applying your make up because ALL make up looks better with a pump of this mixed into your moisturizer!!! It’s my holy grail for make up + skin care.
BOBBI BROWN FULL COVER CONCEALER : i wear the color WARM NATURAL. my under eyes need the most love. this one doesn’t crease during the day + goes on smoothly. Apply in dots under your eye, be sure to blend with this crease brush or beauty blender.
LAURA MERCIER SECRET UNDER EYE BRIGHTENING POWDER : instant eye brightener. apply after your under eye concealer has dried fully. It sets product into place + instantly lifts your eyes looking more awake. Apply with Bobbi Brown angled brush.
BOBBI BROWN ILLUMINATING SETTING POWDER : color NUDE. Natural highlighter/shimmer that brings our your natural glow, but doesn’t look shimmery, which i love. I apply after my BB Cream foundation has dried for a good 30 seconds. This setting powder blends + blurs concealer + foundation together seamlessly. The guy at the BB counter told me it’s the secret weapon for that “california beach glow” + I agree.
BOBBI BROWN ANGLED FACE BRUSH : use to apply setting powder + under eye brightening powder.
BOBBI BROWN SHIMMER BRICK HIGHLIGHTER : color: pink quartz. you’re welcome for the time you save with this. be sure it stays somewhere safe, it kiiinda shatters easily.
CAUDALIE BEAUTY ELIXIR : I set my make up with this every. single. day. Good for refreshing during the day + doesn’t build up. Feels clean + light. I’ll even spray this on make – up free days, on a clean face. Snag a travel size if you’re wanting to try it before you commit. If you’ve tried it, buy this duo pack because it’s on sale!!
Urban Decay ALL NIGHTER LONG LASTING MAKEUP SETTING SPRAY: your make up WILL NOT MOVE when you use this. Great for humidity + sweaty times. I love it for events + shoots. For every day, I choose caudalie. get the travel size to see how your make up sets with it.
LIPS :
CLINIQUE CHUBBY STICK : technically a cheek color, but i loooooove how it looks on lips | COLOR: 02 Robust Rhubarb
NARS VELVET MATTE LIPSTICK PENCIL : I love the color | Take Me Home + the mini duo kit color | Do Me Baby/ Bad Girl – matte chestnut rose – matte dusty rose (last color shown).
NARS SHARPENER : $6 fits both full size + mini pencils!
MARC JACOB ENAMORED HYDRATING LIP GLOSS STICK : I pretty much have every color. Learning fast that I like the muted natural colors best.
BRAZILIAN KISS BUTTER : The best lip butter that will leave your lips soft + dewy while pulling out your natural color.
NARS LIP BALM : perfect for the pool + minimal make up/ effortless summer days! color | orgasm
SEPHORA LIP LINER : no sharpener needed. perfect natural colors that enhance your natural lip. The color (15) rosewood – matte mauve brown compliments my natural lip color. sold all my sisters on these pencils.
FRESH LIP BALM : Has SPF so I love traveling with it (just keep it someplace cool so it doesn’t melt) fave shades | berry, tulip, spice
SEPHORA LIP BALM : goes on like chapstick, isn’t too matte but packs a lot of color in it’s punch.
SEPHORA POWER PLUMP LIP BALM : A plumping lip treatment that pulls out your natural lip color!
SKINCARE :
DR BRANDT EXFOLIATOR : A MUST HAVE to even out your skin tone. Feels a bit rough when you first use it, but It is not abrasive at alllll. Brightens + smooths out any uneven texture. Apply to clean face with a bit of warm water. Massage for a couple of minutes, then rinse with warm water. I always finish with a douse of cold water to close my pores. This is a great one for all over body.
DR BRANDT NO MORE BAGGAGE: decreases dark circles like nobody’s business. be sure to warm it up on your fingers before gently dabbing under eye. USE RING FINGER! I apply two layers when i have a shoot (let it dry between).
OLEHENRIKSENTRUTH ON THE GLOW CLEANSING CLOTHS: They gently exfoliate + leave my skin feeling cleaner + brighter. These make up wipes are sort of like the first time you use an electric toothbrush experience. When you first feel your teeth post brushing, you wonder how your teeth have NEVER BEEN MORE CLEAN?! These wipes are my OG.
KIEHL’s LINE REDUCING CONCENTRATE : i use to combat/prevent fine lines + wrinkles. minimizes pores. i use at night before moisturizing.
MURAD RENEWING EYE CREAM : murad user for life right here. this cream brightens sooo much! makes my under eye concealer look amazing!
HAIR :
DAE SHAMPOO : a new shampoo I’ve been trying + love. It leaves your hair so soft, but not weighed down + the smell. s’dang good!
BUMBLE AND BUMBLE THICKENING DRYSPUN VOLUME TEXTURE SPRAY : perfect for mastering the MOM CHOP. You can try the mini size if you’re not ready to commit.
BUMBLE + BUMBLE PRET-A-POWDER : Half dry shampoo, half texture powder. Instantly lifts + makes your hair full where you want it to.
PLAYA SOFT VOLUME POWDER : amazing texture powder, that adds volume. shared how i use it in this post a couple of days ago!
OLAPLEX : No 3 an at home treatment that helps reduce breakage + build up strength in your hair. I use No 4 + No 5 as my shampoo + conditioner.
BODY :
DONNA KAREN CASHMERE MIST DEODORANT : if you don’t believe me, read the 785 positive reviews. Been using this for years!
JO MALONE : fresh + put together. favorite scent is nectarine + honey or orange blossom!
FLOWER BOMB : One of my allll time favorite perfumes!
BRAZILIAN BUM BUM CREAM : I like the yellow kind so much i bought the smaller one to keep in my purse all the time. it firms + tightens skin + smells like vacation (which we could all use right about now). I’m hooked on the chapstick as well.
DR. BRANDT SKINCARE : Microdermabrasion Body – love this for face, excited to try it for body!

DR BRANDT EXFOLIATOR : exfoliate your body about 24 hours before you self or spray tan!
TAN LUXE : my OG tanning drops!
ISLE OF PARADISE TAN DROPS : gave these a solid try + i did like it, but I still like my tan-luxe drops more! A LOT of people love this one, so it may be the right one for your skin.
ST TROPEZ : This is my go to self tanner if I’m not using my spray gun! It’s easy to apply with a mit + they even have a 1 hour express if you’re in a hurry!
MITT : you need this to apply self tanner
MORNING AFTER SHOWER CAP : using a shower cap will help protect your hair. most tanners will wash out, but save to have in case! Also good for body showers to keep your hair from getting wet.
TOOLS :
My favorite brushes + the FACIAL RAZOR I use. Perfect for getting peach fuzz + dry skin off your skin so your make up goes on smoother.
