Hydrate Your Skin with This Herbal Body Moisturizer


I’ve been working on my tan recently (one plus side of quarantining at home with nothing to do), and my skin has been getting very dry as a result. I’m definitely not as good about putting on lotion after being in the sun as I should be, but I think that’s because I’ve never found a lotion that makes me want to put it on. That is, until I tried this HEMPZ PINEAPPLE AND MELON HERBAL BODY MOISTURIZER. It smells absolutely incredible and leaves my skin super hydrated. The only issue is it doesn’t last the whole day if you put it on in the morning, which is unfortunate. I will stick to putting it on after I shower at night to go to bed with soft, great-smelling skin!

Fall in Love With This Grapefruit Scented Hand Cream



I feel like I may say this a lot, but I swear this PERFECTLY POSH "DON'T BE BITTER, BABY" HAND CREME is hands down the best smelling hand cream I’ve ever used. It smells like when you walk in a chic interior design store and smell an incredible candle burning and feel compelled to buy it even though that’s not what you came in for just because it smells SO good. I will be using this cream daily.

Hemp Infused Eye Shadow That Lasts All Night


Eye shadow is my favorite go-to product for when I want to add a little bit more to my makeup routine. I’m married to my Urban Decay palette, but it’s hard to travel with because of the size. When I saw this PACIFICA WILD HEMP INFUSED EYE SHADOW, I fell in love with it for two reasons: the colors were perfect, and it’s small enough to fit in my cosmetic bag when traveling! A win-win. These six colors are all I need for a low-key vacation and they didn’t smudge all night!

Hand Lotion That Smells Like Heaven



I’ve definitely mentioned how much I love hand lotions before, but I’ll say it again. I LOVE hand lotion, and I keep at least two in my purse at all times. This THE SAEM HAND ESSENCE (scent: Magnolia) is one of the best smelling lotions I’ve come across! I’m obsessed. Plus it’s only $3.99? That’s a score in my book.

Leave Your Face Looking Glossy With this Rich Moisturizer



Let me preface by saying that I am one of Glossier’s biggest fans. My perfect day of shopping in NYC includes going to their flagship store in Lower Manhattan, and I’ve never used a product of theirs I didn’t like. This GLOSSIER RICH PRIMING MOISTURIZER is no exception! It has a heavenly lavender smell that makes me want to wear it all day long, and makes my skin feel luxurious. It is a bit heavy for my oily skin type, though, so I would recommend sticking to wearing this during dry, cold seasons. Definitely a great moisturizer for both day and night and I would highly recommend it!

 

5 kisses to Glossier—you never fail me!

If You Like Piña Coladas, Use This Lip Polish



How did I not know that lip polish existed before now? It’s seriously a game changer. In less than a minute I can make my lips feel soft and smooth using this NIU BODY PINA COLADA SUGAR LIP POLISH. I’m not the biggest fan of Piña Coladas, so this wasn’t my favorite scent, but I love the product itself and would totally buy it in another flavor. Take my word for it--you need a lip scrub in your life!

Erase Fine Lines with This Wonder Eye Cream



I’m all about preventative measures when it comes to taking care of my skin, so even though I don’t have any major wrinkles around my eyes yet, I use an eye cream every night before I go to sleep. This BALANCE ME WONDER EYE CREAM came in my most recent Ipsy package and had rave reviews, so I was ecstatic to try it. I used it every morning for a week (since I already had a night eye cream) and LOVED the results. My eyes looked brighter, had fewer fine lines, and no dark spots! I even had my friend (who always struggles with dark circles) try it and she loved it. We would highly recommend this cream and will definitely be purchasing the real thing.
