I've been GATEKEEPING BEAUTY PRODUCTS... finally sharing products you need to know about

[@Hey_Its_Meg]

Would love to see a holy grail on a budget video for those of us who can't afford high end skincare. Also a holy grail kitchen products on your RachhLovesLife channel!

[@vbristow]

Both of those videos would be awesome to see!!! I really hope she sees your post and actually makes them! ❤️

[@allih8021]

If anyone is interested in a more affordable exfoliating powder, I highly recommend the Good Molecules Pineapple Exfoliating Powder. (Spoiler alert: it does not smell like pineapple. It smells like Gerber baby rice cereal.) It is INSANELY good. It sounds very similar to the Tatcha in that it is a rice base that includes fruit enzymes and you use it exactly the same way. It is my holy grail and I will not be without it. I'm in my mid-40s with dry uber sensitive skin (rosacea, eczema, etc.) and it does not irritate and it just leaves my skin glowing and soft and smooth and it is amazing.

[@chrisbecker4412]

Where did you get this product from?? I, too, have extremely angry, fussy skin, and need an awesome exfoliator!

[@beatlebaileynichols]

Don't worry Rachel your products are safe from me! I don't I have the coin for majority of these favorites. I will live vicariously through you😅🤣😂On my 4th bottle of Essence turmeric milky moisturizer got to have it!

[@mommashawna707]

I was a little disappointed in all of her favorites also because they were so unbelievably pricey. There are many dupes for the things that she liked like verb ghost oil it’s like $16 for a 2 ounce bottle and it will last you at least a year. It doesn’t leave your hair greasy so it’s not one of those oils that you have to be careful how much you put in. Things like that the Inkey list is another one that has prices like the ordinary and they have hair care and skin care. But I guess these are her favorites. I do have really expensive favorites also like I love Kate Somerville but that’s why I buy boxy charm because they have their pop-up shops that you can buy the products at such a fraction of the price.

[@ambercarroll-fossano7011]

Try Pudair moisturizer. It's amazing and priced great!

[@corinnegunter3889]

Lol me too! In the process of buying a house and redoing some paint and flooring has made me broke. Its always a good time to shop my own stash though. I also like Beauty Pie for luxury like hair/skin/makeup/body stuff at a way lower price. 2 months free trial period on Beauty Pie too!

[@marissac713]

I never purposely did any gatekeeping, I just didn't think of mentioning makeup I loved to anyone. Then when five of my holy grails got discontinued through the years, I decided I should at least try to help my new products I love from going away. That's when I started writing reviews, comments, hyping them up to friends and family. If they still get discontinued one day, I know I tried.

[@kimhsiang8049]

Just wanted to do my regular message to say that I adore you and you bring so much happiness to my mornings. Sending all my love from New Zealand xxx

[@amandawheeler8285]

I love that you shared that sponge! 🙂 I seen you use it multiple times, so I asked what it was called and someone replied..bought it immediately! Hands down best sponge!! 👌

[@GalacticGoddess46]

I use, and am obsessed with the Tatcha gentle rice enzyme powder, and you're correct, the feeling before/after using is like night/day. Plus it truly lasts forever.

[@mackenzietyler2723]

I've been into minimalist makeup, whatever is the quickest/easiest yet still looks like I tried. Elf shadow sticks!!!! Just pat out with your finger and boom, easy eye look!

[@vbristow]

2 questions: a) how many colours do the ELF shadow sticks come in? b) are there any other shadow sticks from other brands that you have tried that are also good/great/amazing?

[@mackenzietyler2723]

@@vbristow I think there around 5 colors, I have been so happy with the elf I haven't tried others. I used to use lorel cream shadows but they were in a pot. Lorel was more pigmented comparatively.

[@KierraLife]

I’m absolutely obsessed with the perricone md brightening spf. It lightens dark spots like no one’s business! Definitely more of a splurge product but they do sales pretty frequently!

[@AnneliseStafford]

La Roche Posay has an amazing tinted SPF moisturizer that smooths out uneven skin tone. It’s perfect for under the eyes and around the nose in the summer. Especially if you plan to sit at a pool or on the beach and don’t want to look like you’re wearing makeup 💄

[@Hereforthelaughss]

Not really gatekeeping but the wet n wild glass correct primer (the green one) I have been using for the past 2-3 years and it's not easy to find but it gives such a glow and evens out any redness, does great under makeup or without makeup. It's my favorite primer, and I will continue to buy it forever. I just never hear people talk about it!

[@deewillson2757]

Wet n wild has really stepped up their game.

[@delaneymarks2212]

The yellow one is really good too!

[@jenniferyoung5932]

Yeah the yellow is my go to fav for my almost 40 yrs old skin. 😁

[@christinewebster84]

I've been obsessing over the Chanel Water Fresh Complexion Touch. It's the only foundation that I've been reaching for so far, this summer. All of their Water Fresh products are fantastic!

[@PJSparkles100]

It's so good but the shades are awful. 😔

[@humanpersonne]

It's kinda cute that Rachel wants her favourite products to get more love🐨

[@jessicalogsdon4992]

my 2 faves: supergoop sheer screen. its a mineral sunscreen with no white cast and sinks in so easily and the sephora liquid lip in 5. soooo good!

[@supriyagour2892]

Yaas girl! Share all these products! I love new, tried and true, recommendations. It's amazing how many of these products are sitting on my vanity, too! I never think twice about them either. I've just been reaching for them for years without thought. Lol. My gatekeep product is a lipstick from Rimmel called Coffee Shimmer. It's the perfect neutral lip for me! I've been buying it since at least 2008.

[@1224dlc]

I love the Tatcha Rice Classic powder! My makeup goes on better! My skin feels so wonderful. I’m so glad you are using it! Tatcha products are great! You look wonderful by the way! Thanks so much for sharing!

[@susanjeffries5108]

I love the Tatcha Rice Classic, too! Exfoliation without pain and something about it changing from powder to suds is very satisfying. :)

[@christa2047]

I’ve literally done a google search trying to figure out what sponge that is! So glad to know. Ordering one now!

[@cassandruhhh]

The Tatcha Rice Wash is my holy grail facial cleanser so I’m not surprised to hear the Rice Powder is a dream too! Placing a Sephora order right now 😅

[@kelsiepecarskie7158]

That ordinary hair serum would be awesome for my current postpartum hair regrowth! Thanks for the tip!! Love your recommendations been a loyal watcher for many many years now!!

[@thepowerwithin211]

My go to dewy makeup: maybelline age rewind concealer, fenty beauty match stick in amber to contour, rare beauty cream/liquid blush, winky lux cream highlighter in the shade bubbles, it’s beautiful. The sky high mascara, any eyebrow pencil and some clear gel and BOOM

[@carinatest5617]

I no longer can find the original Clarins UV Plus here in Germany. I loved it too. It’s now in a tube and they reformulated it. It’s greasier now, more like a cream and leaves me shiny. Better stock up on the original as long as it is still available!

[@juliequadflieg3956]

The Magic Brows Brush-On Tinted Fibre Eyebrow Gel from MCo Beauty is my go-to eyebrow product for years! I also love the liquid lipsticks from Gerard Cosmetics

[@leesawallace2411]

No one talks about these much,if at all, but these are my favorites. Enjoying the videos! Ren - Rosa Centafolia cleansing balm Excema Honey - honey oatmeal facial cleanser Whish - Blue matcha restoring mask Chantacaille - Jasmine & Lily Healing mask Palmetto Derma - intensive hydration/firming Serum Palmetto Derma - collagen boosting/restoration serum Derma E - Ultra Hydrating Antioxidant day cream Missha - sunscreen Solimo - sunscreen

[@cosmofashiongirl]

Love the supergoop unseen sunscreen! ♥️ And krave matcha hemp hydrating cleanser!

[@danielletdg8423]

It's not super exciting, but I have fallen in love with The Farmacy Green Clean Cleansing Balm. I'm often too tired to do a double cleanse on my face if I wear a full face of makeup, and this Cleansing balm gets all my eye makeup off without stinging or leaving residue (something I've struggled to find). And it works with my sfx makeup too, so bonus! 🙃

[@heathercurran1376]

Cover girl Clean Matt BB cream. Enough coverage for every day wear without being heavy and cakey. I use mine daily especially if I don’t want todo a full face of makeup!

[@presleyannn]

I have a habit of picking the skin off my lips when I’m anxious, so I often have really dry and cracked lips. So I have tried COUNTLESS lip balms and lip masks, and while the Laneige lip mask is one of my favorites, my all time favorite lip balm is Malin+Goetz Mojito Lip Balm. I feel like it heals my lips in a matter of hours. It also works great as a gloss and doesn’t have to be reapplied very often.

[@melaniopperman3651]

No one have talked about isabella garcia liquid blush and the concealer, ohh my word the concealer 😍 so extremely hydrating and natural

[@samanthamorales-carroll4037]

My favorite products I have to keep forever is my whish lip balm, a Korean sunscreen, the haruharu wonder rice toner and the pyunkang yul essence.

[@Muselil]

Totally agree with the Clarins spf. I ise it daily, and it’s perfect under make-up. Another thing I have used a lot during this summer is the Pixi Hydrating Milky Mist. I have used other mists, but this is just a nice mist and it has been cooling and hydrating.

[@JustVibin98]

Oryza Ombré Blush in Malibu Sunrise is my favorite Blush, it’s so pretty, and it smells AMAZING

[@abby1376]

Your t-shirt looks amazing! Pleeeease tell me where it's from, I need it in my life

[@jningus4135]

I’d love to see you try the colorwow supernatural dream coat. All the hype seems like adds. I have the curly hair version and it works great.

[@rorifalley4283]

I would love to see a video of you test our gatekeepers!! The I would suggest is the Drench&Quench moisturizer by bliss, I have been obsessed with it for years!! After I tried it I stopped looking for a moisturizer. I love it so much!!! ❤️

[@alissawhite3139]

Ahh I’ve been waiting to see a video like this from you! Love it and can’t wait to pick up some of the products!!

[@desireep7113]

Well, I've got a few things that I love. First, I'm a huge fan of the Inkey List Tranexamic Acid Night Treatment. I suffer with cystic acne which can leave some pretty dark scars on my face and this really helps to clear them up. I usually use it and the Inkey List 15% Vitamin C and EGF, which I put on first. Then, after letting them set in, I put a nice amount of First Aid Beauty Ultra Repair Cream. It's unscented, can basically be used anywhere on the body, and helps my eczema so much. I have also had great luck with Uriage Hyseac New Skin Serum in the past and am likely going to repurchase that since I haven't had it for a bit and I miss it. This is a weird one, but also cannot live without burgundy eye liner. I once read an article about Kate Beckinsale's makeup in the movie Underworld and I guess they used burgundy eye liner for her look because it looks really natural and almost invisible and yet creates a full lash line and definition. It's kinda hard to find but man is it worth it. For mascara, I'm a tubing mascara fan through and through as everything else seems to raccoon on me so I love Amaterasu Beauty (all of their mascaras) and have also now tried Caliray Come Hell Or High Water mascara and also love that one too. Last but not least, Comfy Earrings! They have so many cute styles and are actually comfortable to wear all the time. I thought I hated stud earrings until I tried these but now I can wear them all the time without accidentally stabbing myself in the head by resting my head on something or holding a phone to my ear. Edited to add: Vichy Masque Peel Double Eclat. One of my fave little splurges cause it leaves my face so soft after I use it. Either that or Bye Bye Blemish Skin Resurfacing Peel Serum. Also works well but admittedly does not smell as nice. Lol

[@kilala0]

The J. Cat Beauty blushmallow blushes are amazing and so are the Half-Caked Candy Paint lip& cheek tint blushes 😍

[@jessicaawesome-sauce1268]

I recently fell in love with this Kenra Shine like good hair oil set I got at tj maxx for $20. I’m not a hair person but these products are so easy to use! And there are so many ways to use them! As leave in conditioner , finishing spray, heat protectant and the elixir one is great for nourishing thick hair!!! I will be hunting down more when I’m out ( which will be a while cause a little goes a long way!) because these products are a must have!!! Also the foxy bae hair waver tool ( also tj maxx) is amazing!

[@kathrynsantiago2017]

I've been on a 'hair journey ' for a year now and my hair is a lot like yours. I quit using clarifying shampoos and started using a regular moisturizing shampoo/conditioner combo. I also only use shampoo every other day. I still rinse with water and condition my hair but I don't get greasy as quickly. You could do clarifying shampoos once a week to remove buildup of hair products but it can be really hard on hair and cause it to be oily faster if using everyday. I've also been trying to let it air dry because I was getting heat damage.

[@mouse2390]

Yup. If your hair is oily on top with crunchy ends you're washing it too much. Too-frequent washing irritates your scalp into producing more oil--vicious circle. I'm down to shampoo twice a week--just wetting it down/conditioning in-between days and clarifying once a month and I don't have greasy hair anymore.

[@mommashawna707]

The Inkey list also has caffeine drops and things like that for your hair and they are just like the ordinary really reasonable. They also have skin care.

[@carolinelarocque7982]

Kerastasse is a French brand, and you had the prononciation right for half a second, its closer to ul-teem :) I use their specifique routine for greesy rooms and dry ends, and its been the only thing helping me out lately!!

[@kelly92109]

I LOVE the Beautycounter face sunscreen, Milani Luminoso blush, Elf eyebrow pencil, and babe lash serum!

[@beccaandre3427]

Yessssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss I just picked up the Ordinary hair care serum! I am dealing with so much hairloss from medication and covid and all the other nonsense and I'm loving it SO MUCH! I use it at night and by the morning it's all absorbed in.

[@sos1518]

I'm addicted to the Item Beauty Lip Quips....omg amazing!!!!!

[@brittanyplatt3741]

I’ve been using Revlon ColorStay Liquid Liner for YEARS, and it’s my absolute favorite. I love me a good black liquid liner, and this is the best I’ve tried.

[@dundonoz]

Sukin Super Greens daily moisturiser, Body Shop Vitamin C microdermabrasion face scrub, Revolution 20% Niacinimide Serum, Mirenesse HD beauty light CC concealer crayon, & the HiSmile colour correction tooth powder are my ride or die items. Oh & a hammam style body exfoliant glove - they are finally becoming mainstream.

[@imemorton7641]

The Beauty Crop BFF grow and groom eyebrow gel keeps your brows in place all day and is an amazing brow gel. It is also affordable

[@caitrinabbott4006]

Because of you I'm in love with the bite beauty Changemaker foundation and had to buy 2 of them because I haven't found another foundation that I like since I started wearing it 😂 but the one thing that I can't live without and I have to use daily is the elf lip scrub that comes in the lipstick tube in the flavor brown sugar. I use it every night before I put on my laneige lip sleeping mask in vanilla. The other thing I have to use daily and I'm on my second bottle and I have a back up of just in case the world catches on that it's really nice is the cosrx propolis light ampoule. I mix my vitamin c powder into it in the morning and I use it alone before my retinol at night. I absolutely love the way it just sinks into the skin.

[@jessicaawesome-sauce1268]

Did you see that Laneige lip sleeping mask is now at tj maxx! It’s like $15 there and I’ve seen it sooo many times in different flavors.

[@caitrinabbott4006]

@@jessicaawesome-sauce1268 I haven't been to TJ Maxx in so long, looks like it might be time to go down there and check it out!

[@jessicas253]

When it comes to skincare I absolutely love the Biotherm Aquasource Deep Serum and the Clinique Superdefense Gel SPF40. They both totally improved my skin, plus I'm finally able to wear sunscreen on my face without breaking out. These and the Peptide Moisturizer from The Inkey List changed my life. When it comes to make-up I enjoy using the triangular powder puff from LH cosmetics to apply powder. Makes everything so much smoother and blurred. My lesser know favorite for lips are the Maybelline Super Stay Ink Crayons. I feel like not many people are talking about them but they stay a long time, are easy to use, and aren't too expensive. For my brows, I love the Rival de Loop Super Slim Eyebrow Pencils. Their colors are ashier than most brands while being very cheap. I think they're not available in the US or Canada though (I'm from Germany).

[@danielletdg8423]

I love the Maybelline Ink Crayons! I also have a couple of the Maybelline Superstay liquid lipsticks, and they work great.

[@jackiemorris875]

I bought a 4 pack of purple (obviously) makeup sponges by The Blueness Store that I really like. I also love my Cinema Secrets makeup brush cleaner. It's amazing! I bought their makeup sponges as well and really like them. I'm an Estee' Lauder girl. I used to not like the feel of Double Wear so would use whatever was their lighter coverage foundation. In the past few months, I've changed my mind. I absolutely LOVE Double Wear! I also love their Smoother primer. They've discontinued the Illuminator which I really liked.

[@mells489]

I definitely need Clean it Zero makeup removing balm from Banila and Co, Redken’s United One spray treatment and L.A Girl gel glide eyeliner in very black.

Ordered the shampoo and conditioner for my teenage daughter who struggles with oily scalp but dry hair. Thank you so much❤️

[@kloiemartin-peterson5459]

Dermalogica has the same concept as tatcha it’s called the daily microfoliant and it’s amazing. I love the dermalogica one

[@merribethsartors7393]

I love the Purito bb cream so much! I learned about it from Taylor Wynn here on KZbin and it is the best! I use it on clients for wedding makeup or mix it into any other foundation to make it look flawless. I'm in love! (the only problem I have with it is the shade range sucks)

[@parisinthe30sx]

I wanted to like it, but it turned me gray. Lol

[@merribethsartors7393]

I know they have different colors but the light/grey one actually matched my skin tone perfectly. Ha I haven’t found another foundation that actually matches my pale skin. Lol

[@LaraSironi]

As for the exfoliating powder, you have to try the one of Dermalogica, the Daily Microfoliant

[@shellslee17]

Seraphine Botanicals, Daisy + Pearl. I use it as a highlighter. I repurchase maybe 4 products and this is one of them. It is amazing.

[@palstelmc6756]

The Patrick Ta Eyeshadow Primer is good. I got it in a BoxyCharm and I enjoyed it.

[@stfhji]

Ciate wonder wand mascara works really well for me-- volume, separation, no smudging!

[@bradenroberts1633]

I was testing a lot of new foundations and none were that great. Decided to try out my old fave maybelline fit me. DO NOT SLEEP ON HER! My secret matte primer I LOVE is actually the Paulas Choice Super-Light daily wrinkle defense spf 30 sunscreen. Perfection.

[@karingroom6106]

I may have missed when your hair damage started or why, but I know you have a pool. I have a saltwater pool and colored hair. I wasn’t rinsing my hair often enough after swimming. I also thought leaving a protein treatment on sitting in the sun was a great idea, as well as putting my hair in a pony tail while swimming and after. My first clueless pool season destroyed my hair. So much breakage. It has taken a year to bring it back. Make sure you rinse the salt and chlorine out if not often while swimming, at least before bed. Use a spray in conditioner in between getting in and out. Protein treatments can make your hair very brittle and only added to my breakage. I’ve found the brand evolvh’s moisturizing spray leave in a big help when I’m not ready to go inside or hose my head off. Actually, all of their hair care is amazing and light weight. Another product recommendation as a blonde is the Color Wow Dream Filter every few shampoos followed by a heavier, richer conditioner, which I’m convinced helped so much. With patience, my hair stylist, and the right habits and products, my hair is getting healthy again. A year!! I was looking up syndromes and diseases and using rogaine unsuccessfully before my stylist and I both face-palmed … it’s the pool water!

[@addictedtoelf]

The amount of hand movements in the intro alone brought me back to life. ✋✌️👇👊☝️lol Thank you

[@AshleighMargaret]

I never hear anyone talk about the Revlon Colorstay Satin Ink liquid lipsticks, but they really should. They're pigmented, comfortable, don't budge, don't transfer, and look good ALL day. They're not matte, but they're not super glossy either. A true satin. I tend to despise liquid lipsticks because my lips are so dry that by lunch time it's either cracking off in flakes, or just looks dry and crusty and hurts. This one doesn't do that at all--and it DOESN'T BUDGE. This is the one and only lipstick in my collection that I trust enough to not even bring with me for touch ups when I'm gone all day, because I know it won't be necessary. AND my lips still feel like they have life left in them when I remove my make up at the end of the day.

[@RebeccaDiamondRealtor]

Agree, these are excellent. The Maybelline Vinyl Ink is a very similar product

[@KinniMoo]

One is a hack for hydrating water mist that are just water. My choice is Evian. The beauty mister will set you back about $20. I bought a couple of extra fine continuous spray bottles on Amazon and a giant bottle of Evian and it is so great and cheap. The other is a group of products by dove. The started a kind of higher end hair care line that I love! They have bond building shampoo/conditioner, an amazing hyaluronic serum, and scalp spray. I stopped using olaplex and my hair has gotten stupid long!

Ok… I have VERY sensitive skin and every moisturizer I have ever tried breaks me out… except one. The Neutrogena Hydroboost gel moisturizer. I love it! I started using it and my face cleared up within days! And if I run out and don’t use it… I get a pimple. I have been using it for 4 years now. So I have to have it and if it ever gets discontinued… I will cry.

[@mirandacoulter888]

It’s one of my favorites too! It feels soooo good on my skin

[@kelseygafford1513]

[@kcricket39]

My product that I use every single day that I haven't heard anyone talk about is the Shisedo Urban Environment Oil-Free Sunscreen Broad-Spectrum SPF 42. It doesn't break me out or have a white cast, and just makes my skin look super glowy and healthy.

I suffer from Rosacea and have super dry skin. As far as skin care, I love anything La Roche-Posay. I use their Lipikar Balm daily, love it!

[@beckygauthier3048]

My splurge skin care (it's soooo pricey!!!) Naturopathica plant stem cell booster serum. I get a glow and my under eyes are so smooth like I've never experienced a change so dramatic! Also, the No. 77 foundation brush by It brushes for Ulta. Best foundation brush I've ever used.

[@SaReLaMo]

If you have fine thin hair, I would recommend R+CO hair oil "Neon lights". It's only oils, no silicon (dimethicone et cetera) which I feel are the reason other hair oils doesn't work for me because it weighs my hair down and makes it look string-y and stripey. R+co hair oil just moisturize and makes it shiney and healthy without the weight. It's pricey, but you don't need a lot. I have had one can for 10 months now and I have waist long hair and I use the oil everytime I've showered (which is everyday in the summer and after I get home from work). 10/10!

I got a lipstick in my Birchbox once and this thing stays in my purse, like not even in my makeup box because I know I am going to wear it and I will need it if I need to do touch ups. It is the PBJ Smoothie Lip Stick Crayon. The shade that I have is PERFECT for me. It a combination of neutral and hint of red that is great for office to night out. It is creamy and moisturizing. There are times when I reach into my putto get a chapstick and will grab it by accident and still put it on because it feels that great.

[@bsmithremmick]

Rachel, not sure you can consider that sponge gatekept -- still loved to hear you sing its praises though! Awesome video as always.

[@katerynasemernia5775]

I love clarins sunscreen! It’s not greasy or heavy, wears nice under makeup. The ordinary serum really helps regrow hair, but it makes my head itchy and I feel like my shin becomes sun sensitive, so better to wear a hat outdoors.

[@sqwertyyyyy33]

How does Tatcha’s exfoliating powder compare to the daily one from Dermalogica? That one’s my go-to in the shower!

[@amytheune1766]

I love and have repurchased the PURITO Fermented Complex 94 Boosting Essence over and over. My skin is softer, brighter and more smooth. I have very sensitive skin. This Essence calms my skin and I just love it.

[@darienkeay5819]

I love the Fenty Skin Butta Drop, leaves such a beautiful sheen and has a nice light scent. Also IGK Mistress Hydrating Hair Balm. Hempz Yuzu & Starfruit body moisturizer, I originally got this because living in Florida I wanted a daily moisturizer that had an SPF in it plus it smells amazing. Kosas Cloud Set powder. I have very dry skin but get oily in my t-zone and this is my holy grail setting powder.

I use lot of products from Essence 😎 For hair I've been using Schwarzkopf's Gliss ultimate oil Elixir Balsamspray, going through second or third bottle and one other is Schwarzkopf's splitends miracle sealing serum. Although my splitends are already so dead and I need to get them trimmed, but i do like the product. I've been using Nivea Sun SPF 50+ sunscreen this summer, loving it

I will said the NYX Thick it Stick it gel it's my ride or die, also the CeraVe cleaner I had repurchase that like 3 times already, the and the Glamglow cleanser the charcoal one it's my fav too 🥰 love you Rach ❤️

Been using the NYX Thick it Stick it, too, and I'm really liking it as it actually makes my brows look fuller. I have lots of spare areas and I'm blonde, but it grips onto the shortest hairs and makes it look like there actually is something. 🤣 Also, love the CeraVe Cleanser. Doesn't dry out my skin.

[@alicemakeupland9240]

@@jessicas253 Yes!!! I feel the same about the brows and it last ALL DAY too, also love the CeraVe because it won't burn my eyes when removing makeup (I use it for remove then for cleans) it's the best

I’ve been loving the cowash from renpure between shampoos! Also lip glosses from Fawn Beauty (Katie Fawn a youtuber’s brand)

I bought the self tanner brush after you mentioned it. I Love it! I'm no longer streaky.

This may sound silly, but I love Cover Girl Lash Blast Clean mascara in the waterproof formula. It’s the only waterproof mascara I’ve found that isn’t hard on my lashes. I’ve discovered that because my eyes get more watery now, don’t know why, regular mascara gets “raccoon-y” on me. But with this one, I can dab my eyes or lash line and not lose half of my mascara either under my eyes or on the tissue. I’m curious to know if you’ve tried the Treat Beauty lip balms. I love them! I think even Julia would love them. They’re organic to the point of being edible, but best used on lips or other dry skin. They come in lots of flavors and are supersized (like the original Bonne Bell Lip Smackers for those of us old enough to remember them).

The L’Oréal pure retinol serum. So affordable, and it makes my skin flawless. Didn’t use it for a week and boom, hi breakout. Used it again, and pimples be gone! On my third bottle, and use it 6 nights a week. Also the simple hydrating gel cream. Feels so good, makes my skin hydrated without greasiness and sits well under makeup. And the price is fantastic! Good simple face cream

I use this too and its amazing!!!!!

The Beekman 1908 milk primer spf is my holy grail. Best spf. Completely mineral. When it dries down there is no smell. Goes on like a dream and leaves no white cast once worked in

I’ve been gatekeeping wet n wild big poppa mascara. I’ve used everything under the sun. From high end to cheap drug store and this blows them all out of the water. I don’t know why or what’s in it but I don’t care. All day volume, length, and don’t make lashes fall. I hope they never stop making it. Only $5 too.

[@anastasiac680]

Yes I was surprised at how good it is. I did not expect it as I was used to using higher end mascaras, but this, not even a 7 dollar one outperformed dior, it cosmetics and my favorite tarte mascaras. Another good one to try that will surprise you is La colors tubing mascara sold at dollar general in a light purple tube. It does not perform like a tubing mascara on me but it is good at everything else. I’ve been using that one a ton while others 5-6-7 times the price just laying in my drawer.
