Skin:
Elizavecca Natural 90% Olive Cleansing Oil
If you have skin, this cleansing oil is for you. Oily, dry, acne-prone, sensitive, etc. It’s unfragranced, has a great gentle slip on the skin, effective, cheap, lasts forever, and leaves the skin hydrated after use. If you’re looking for an oil cleanser, you can’t go wrong with this.
Clinique Dramatically Different Hydrating Jelly
I wanted to try this pretty much from the moment I saw the words ‘hydrating’ and ‘jelly’ together in the name. It certainly doesn’t disappoint. I like to apply a thick layer of this, which acts almost like a mid-routine hydrating mask, but you don’t need to remove it. And it’s not only a hydrator; it’s packed with goodies like plant extracts and caffeine.
Cosrx Ultimate Nourishing Rice Overnight Spa Mask
There’s something about this moisturizer that is so comforting. It’s straightforward and simple, but not boring. Rice extract, sunflower seed oil, and niacinamide are all ingredients that I love. When applied, this moisturizer gives you an instant shot of hydration, which doesn’t go away after a few minutes. Your skin stays moisturized, brightened, and comfortable. This is another good choice for pretty much any skin.
Makeup:
Fresh Sugar Lip Caramel Hydrating Balm
This is what all lip masks aspire to be. It’s rich and silky; not sticky like some can be. It has decent staying power, but when its gone, my lips still feel moisturized. It also gives your lips a really pretty shine. My favorite part is the smell though- so delicious! It’s a really luxurious lip product to use.
Maybelline Master Kajal in Onyx Rush
I’m actually shocked that I haven’t mentioned this product before on this blog. I suppose it’s been one of those staples for me that I don’t think about, I just use it. You’ll never catch me using an eyeliner other than kohl. It’s stupid easy to work with (which, for me, is a requirement). It gives me the perfect slept-in smokey eye look with only one product. Cheap to boot.
Body:
Hum Nutrition Glow Sweet Glow
These are a great cold weather supplement; between dry air and cold season, our bodies take a beating. These gummies are packed with vitamin C for immune/antioxidant support, but also hyaluronic acid for increased skin hydration. And they taste delicious!
Trader Joe’s Grapefruit Ginger Sugar Scrub
So I finally decided to wander into Trader Joe’s beauty section the other day. I’m so glad that I did- I felt like a kid in a candy store! There were so many interesting, affordable products that I wanted to try. This scrub was the first thing I picked up and it far surpassed my expectations. The sugar base provides good exfoliation, without being drying or too harsh. The formula also features different oils, which leave your skin moisturized after you rinse it off. The scent is also wonderful- It smells spicy sweet with a subtle citrus zing. All of that comes in a squeeze tube, which is just so much more practical for the shower than your conventional tub.
Misc.:
Trader Joe’s Vanilla Pumpkin Scented Candle
Another great TJ’s find. This candle smells like freshly baked pumpkin cookies, without being too cloyingly sweet. The throw is decent for a smaller candle and the candle itself is long lasting. Perfect for fall!
