If you want a sunkissed non-orange tan, this is for you! BAJA BAE - Carmel Lotion Texture is smooth and it goes on skin so nicely. During summer, it gives me additional glow to my skin and during winter, it makes my skin look tan beautifully. I have combination skin on face and dry skin on body. This lotion never made my skin drier. Also it smells so yummy! It’s so easy and pleasing to use.

CLINIQUE - Beyond Perfecting Powder Foundation + Concealer This Clinique’s powder foundation is bomb! It is non comedogenic and it has a good medium to full coverage. I found this compact at Nordstrom few years ago and I’ve been using it since then. This is my favorite foundation to go. Packaging is compact and fits any purse. Also it has sponge within the compact and mirror is attached so it’s so convenient. I really like how much coverage this foundation has despite being powder. It layers beautifully with any concealers and moisturizers as long as it’s not too thick. Price is affordable and it’s so worth it since it lasts for such a long time. Little goes the long way. I highly recommend this product.

e.l.f. - Color Correcting Stick, Correct The Red, 0.11 oz (3.1 g) & tarte - Shape Tape Concealer I purchased these two separately over period of time but as I experiment, I came to conclusion that these are such a good combination! I have combination acne prone skin so I have lots of redness. I like to color correct my skin when necessary. These two are my favorite concealers. Elf concealer is too green to be applied alone so I like to combine with full coverage concealer like Tape Shape. They cover all my redness makes my skin look less textured. Texture of elf concealer is creamy and tarte is a little bit more liquid like. Elf one is so affordable and tape shape is on high end but it’s totally worth the price for a good coverage although you could substitute with any full coverage concealer that works with your skin. I recommend both!

Supergoop! - Unseen Sunscreen Broad Spectrum SPF 40 This is one of my favorite primer & sunscreen! This Unseen SPF has spf 40 and it layers beautifully with any concealer or foundation I’ve tried. I have combination acne prone skin and it can be hard to find a spf that doesn’t irritate my skin. I got this sample with an order from Sephora and I’m so glad I received it! Texture is like silicone cream and packaging is tube. I do prefer tube packaging in skincare since it’s convenient and more sanitary over time. Price is on high end but I think it’s totally worth it if you are having a hard time finding spf that layers beautifully under makeup and have same or similar skin type as I do. I recommend this product!

touch in SOL - No Poreblem Primer I got this sample through other purchases and I was excited to try since it was first time using this primer. This primer is supposed to blur your pore and make your skin look flawless! I have combination acne prone skin and have some large pores near my nose and cheek area. This is my favorite primer ever when I want to achieve beautiful porcelain skin. Texture is like silicone cream and smooth on skin. I like how long this primer lasts on my skin and make me look flawless despite having texture. My pore look like it shrunk! Price is affordable and it comes in a good sized bottle. I recommend this product! I can’t wait to purchase full size.

RAW SPIRIT - Summer Rain Eau de Parfum This is one of my favorite perfume. I love the nice glass packaging. It’s heavy and feels very luxurious. Also the box it came with has a foam inside so it doesn’t break during the shipment. I was highly impressed! I smelled it for the first time when I opened the packaging and I fell in love with the scent. It is such a refreshing scent with a hint of grapefruit and cedar wood. I really like the combination. I would recommend this perfume if you love a fresh citrus scents. Price is on high end but not too high. They also have rollerball & sample kits to try! I think it’s totally worth money and time to try the samples first.

I don’t love sheet masks as much as I used to, and I promised myself I would stop using them as they are rarely anything but bad for the environment. I haven’t bought or received any since I pledged that, so I’m excited to use them all up! However, these three are my favorite and I will miss them. E nature - Birch Juice Hydro Cream Sheet Mask — Key Ingredients: birch sap, chamomile extract — Claims: drenched in cream to hydrate, non tacky, soothes skin — Price: $4 per mask — My thoughts: this is my all time favorite hydrating mask. I won a giveaway from them a while back and they included this in the prize. I then ordered a pack later! I think they have a lovely fit, but most importantly they’re so hydrating, which is why I gave them “best hydrating mask!” The serum that’s in the mask is so very thick, almost like a thin moisturizer, or the cream skin toner everyone loves so much. It’s the best addition to a routine at night or during the day, or a midday pick me up. The calendula in the mask is very soothing and hydrating. Knours. - Be Kind to Your Skin Mask — Key Ingredients: hyaluronic acid & organic oils — Claims: hydrate skin and calm skin/mind — Price: $15 for 5 masks — My thoughts: this brand is near to my heart, and I love all the things I’ve tried from them! The sheet masks are my favorite, as they fit my face SO WELL (which is why I gave them “best application”). It’s lovely pre and during and post my period! Using this mask is very relaxing and makes me feel pampered — and it’s perfect for that time of the month when I’m feeling sad Lolol. This mask isn’t irritating at all and doesn’t break me out or freak out my skin. eve hansen - Antioxidant Sheet Mask - 5X Sheets — Key Ingredients: antioxidants, fruit extracts — Claims: reduce skin irritation & sun damage, and rejuvenate skin — Price: $21 for 5 masks — My thoughts: I gave this mask “best recovery mask” because it is SO good to use after you’ve been in the sun all day. It has lots of antioxidants so it helps fight any sun damage you received that day. It has a gentle smell and the serum is rather watery, and there’s always some left over so my neck and chest get some pampering too. I think the brand sent me this for testing, and I’ve almost used them all up! This will be a very missed mask.

ERNO LASZLO - Dual Phase Vitamin C-Peel Product Claims: Exfoliates, brightens, gives polished and radiant skin _________________________________ Key Ingredients: vitamin c, carrot seed oil, lactic acid _________________________________ My Experience: I really enjoy this mask! I like it's exfoliation process( after applying this mask and massaging the exfoliants, add a drop of the activator in your hand and massage into the face. After one minute rinse off) because it removes all the build up skin and reveals a very refreshed and polished skin. The texture of this mask is grainy and creamy! I try to use this every 2 weeks and love the results 😍 It does have a citrus fragrance, which is something to look out for if your sensitive! A little goes a long way for this mask because you don't want to over exfoliate your skin which is something to remember when using this mask!! Would I recommend? Yes and No! No, if this isn't accessible to you then no worries - retails for $108 - because you can find a dupe. Yes, if you have hyperpigmentation or dull skin and this is accessible to you then I highly recommend!

primera - Miracle Seed Essence Primera gifted me their Miracle Seed Essence. Its star ingredient is lotus seed which helps increase hydration and protect the skin against environmental factors. Since fall season is approaching in San Diego, I’m starting to incorporate essences back into my routines. Essences are great for prepping the skin for better absorption of your serums and moisturizers. They’re essential to any routine particularly in the colder seasons when our skin craves that extra moisture and hydration. The Primera Miracle Seed Essence comes in a beautiful glass bottle along with a box of 70 sheets of 100% unbleached natural cotton pads. I’ve been using this essence for a few days now. What I love about it is that it’s fragrance free and has a viscous consistency that goes on lightweight. I actually forgo the cotton pads and just pour a few drops into my hands and pat into my skin. The essence is fast absorbing and doesn’t leave any stickiness or residue. It simply leaves my skin feeling hydrated and plumped. Primera is a clean kbeauty brand sold at Sephora and many online beauty retailers. Their Miracle Essence retails for $58 USD. It’s definitely a pricey product but worth the splurge for its great ingredient list and hydrating properties.

The Fenty beauty pro kiss’r luscious lip balm is a creamy moisture lock lip balm with a plush for foot applicator that smooths, softens and preps for luscious kiss worthy lips that last! This can be solutions for dry and chapped lips. The texture of it is so creamy and moisturizing on the lips! I bought this lip balm in the summer when it first came out and I have loved it ever since! It is so hydrating, didn’t break me out, and gave me great results in my lips dryness! I would definitely recommend this lip balm to anyone with dry or chapped lips. It is definitely worth the $18!💕☁️FENTY BEAUTY - Pro Kiss'r Luscious Lip Balm

I don't really use this in the summer but when it's super cold this is a savior😍 Would I recommend?! Yes if you have dry skin!
