Mitchum Powder Fresh Deodorant Spray
Don’t underestimate the value of a good deodorant! I use this day in and day out. It leaves me feeling so fresh, and I can truly trust it to carry me throughout anything. It acts as a phenomenal base or start to any self-love routine.
Benefit 24-Hour Brow Setter
I have never been quiet about my love for this brow gel. It sets the hard work I’ve done in place, and can survive even a hike or the wildest nap. I don’t know what I would do without this brow gel, and I will always recommend it. It’s like emotional and brow support bottled up together!
Garnier Micellar Water
A classic. It truly goes without saying, but I love taking my makeup off as much as I love putting it on! This micellar water has been dependable for years – taking off even the craziest of makeup – and acts as my mental cue to wind down for the day.
Swiitch Beauty Borderline Lip Liner
A good lipliner can fix a lot of things, and after my last seven years in the makeup space I can confirm that these liners and their phenomenal shade range just do something for my soul. Not to mention the feel-good point of supporting local business.
Essence Oil Control Paper
I’ve tried many oil-blotting sheets and love them all, especially the Essence ones. These little sheets are easy to pop in your bag, and seamlessly remove oil or sweat from your face without lifting any makeup. It’s modern-day magic, and it takes bathroom touch-ups to the next level.
Typo Water Bottles
Now, I know the internet’s put water bottles on a pedestal the last while; but my Typo water bottles haven’t left my side since 2020, and self-care and love ultimately start with hydration – even if it takes having an emotional attachment to your water bottle!
