So I wanted to share some of my recent and ALL time favorites from Sephora while they’re having their VIB sale. Each of these products I personally use and have either used them for awhile or long enough to know if they truly work. I think that’s super important when recommending items to others. I feel like if you’ve only been using a product for a week, it’s really too soon to say that a products amazing. For me, a lot of times I’ll love it the first week and the second week, I’m like hmmm… So now I wait at least a month before recommending products to anyone. Also, with makeup you have to keep in mind that all skin types are different. What one person loves another person might not be able to use, because of their skin type. So keep that in mind when trying new things. I used to get super upset if someone recommended an amazing foundation and I was like this foundation is super crappy. It wasn’t that it was a bad foundation, it just wasn’t good for me and my skin. My skin is acne prone and is super sensitive.

So I have to be careful when choosing foundation or even trying new ones. With that being said, here are some my favorites…..

1. Tatcha Satin Skin Mist - I am obsessed with this setting spray. I’ve tried the Tatcha Dewy Skin Mist and wasn’t a big fan because for me, once my makeup oxidizes my face tends to get oily. This Satin Skin Mist helps my face stay matte. You have to shake it before applying to activate the clay. I didn’t do this at first and was like what the heck, but one I did - I was sold! It’s basically a liquid powder. It’s soooo good! I honestly feel like its the best on the market. I’ve tried MAC’s Matte spray and it’s horrible. It left spots on my face and I had to complete redo my whole makeup. I do love the MAC Fix Plus though.

2. Tarte Amazonian Clay BB Tinted Moisturizer - This stuff has been a life saver for me on the days that I don't want a full coverage look. It’s just enough coverage to even out your skin tone and those small blemishes. If I have a lot of blemishes, I usually spot conceal those areas first, then use this over it. I love that it also has SPF in it, which is super important. As I mentioned, my skin is super acne prone and this formula keeps my face clear. It feels super light weight and has alot of vitamins and it’s Vegan!

3. Laneige Lip Mask - I LOOOOOVE this lip mask. At night I lather my lips in it. It’s apart of my nightly routine. If I forget, I seriously get in bed and feel my lips and know oops, I need my lip mask. I also started using it as lip gloss. I saw my friend use it as a gloss and was like DUH! It’s seriously the BEST ever! You won’t be sorry, I promise. I’ve went through like 5 of them and they actually last awhile. I think they usually last me like 6 months or so.

4. Dior Addict Lip Maximizer Plumping Gloss - This gloss is my go to when I want that luscious glossy look. I use the shade Beige. It’s a perfect nude pink that goes over anything. Also, it’s the best lip plumper I’ve ever tried. It does tingle when you put it on, but it’s totally bearable. My sister stole my last one so I had to buy another. If that tells you how good it is!

5. T3 Twirl Trio Curling Iron - I absolutely love ALL T3 products! This one is by far my favorite. I use the 1inch barrel. I have really thick course hair and this allows for my curls to stay in and I literally don’t have to curl it again until I rewash. I occasionally do a touch up, but that’s it. I plan to do a tutorial soon! So, stay tuned!

6. Vital Proteins Collagen Peptides - I’ve used this product for awhile now. I actually took a break using it and I’ve noticed a difference in my skin. If you’re like me, you start slacking once your face starts clearing up and you’re like i’m good my face is clear. Then weeks go by and you’re like time out - my face is break out again! UGH! I’m trying to make this a priority to take everyday. I will tell you, it’s best to use in hot drinks. I usually put it in my coffee. If you put it in a cold drink it kind floats to the top. So make sure to really shake it up.

7. Clinique Moisture Surge - In the winter time my skin turns into sand. This is seriously a MUST for me. It helps my face stay hydrated and moistured. I don't use it as much in the summer, because my face tends to get oily if I use it too much, but def a winter moisturizer.

8. Summer Friday’s Jet Lag Mask - This mask is next level. I could seriously lather myself in it. I use it two ways. I use it as moisturizer before I apply my makeup and also as a mask. It smells so good and makes your skin come alive. This is a staple piece for your skin care. You can thank me later. I recently tried the R&R Summers Friday and wasn’t in love, but I’m still giving it a chance and will update you.

9. Olaplex Hair Perfector No. 3 - I live for this stuff! It has helped my hair so much. I’m actually a natural brown and color my hair black. SURPRISE! I use this at home prob once a month and it helps keep my hair heathy and sooooo shiny. It seriously saves my hair from being fried. It’s a must for color treated hair. I usually put it on as a hair mask the day I plan to wash my hair and leave it on for several hours. It makes my hair so soft!

10. Marc Jacobs Glow Stick - I started using this after seeing a makeup artist use it and I didn’t like it at first, but quickly feel in love after I learned how to use it with my skin. I put it on after I moisturize and before I put my foundation on. I primarily use it with the Tarte BB Tinted Moisturizer and it gives me that amazing skin glow.

11. Tatcha “The Deep Cleanse Exfoliating Cleanser” - So I absolutely love this product! I’ve been using it for a good solid year. It’s a cleanser and exfoliator all in one. The exfoliator is super gentle which is super important for me, because I have sensitive skin. I use it about 3x a week after I wash off all my makeup and it never dries me out. I wear Estee Lauder Doublewear Foundation and if you’ve ever tried it, you know it’s super hard to get off. it’s like a mask. So this helps unclog my pores and keeps my face clean.

12. HUM Skin Heroes + Pro Biotic - I switched to this vitamin after my medical spa ran out of the one I was using through them and within a few weeks I could tell a difference. It’s so good and I will NEVER use anything else. Also, my stomach is super sensitive to pro biotics. I’ve gotten nausea in the past when using other brands. This brand doesn’t make me nauseous even when I don’t have anything on my stomach. I use two a day. Which is the receommdned dose.
