Hi Friends!! Long time no talk! I know you’ve been probably seen my on Instagram, that’s my main place to hang out, but I really want to start dedicating time to this space again. So to kick it off, I decided to share my top 5 current favorite Beauty products. I try a lot of beauty products–a combination of products I buy, people recommend to me, and products that companies send to me. However, all the products in this post are products that I chose myself. I’ve linked them all, plus two of them I have a discount code for! Enjoy!

First, is the Matte Made in Heaven long lasting lipstick from Maelle Beauty. If you’ve been following me for a bit, you know I love this brand! It is a safer beauty brand and happens to be local to Chicago, which is so cool. It is truly the BEST long lasting lipstick stain that I have tried in a while!! I am so impressed with it, it does not smudge, lasts hours, and comes in such beautiful colors. I am wearing the color Iris, which is like a Magenta pink. BONUS: You can get $10 off your first purchase from Maelle with my code JULIA10. Shop Maelle here.

Thayer’s Toner Next up: This Toner from Thayer’s. This toner is extremely gentle and is another safer beauty products I swear by. Did you know that witch hazel makes a great natural toner? This one has a few other things added to leave your skin feeling refreshed and moisturized. The bottle is quite large and I think it will last a very long time! I’ve had mine for a few months now with daily use and it looks like I’ve barely touched it. It’s very affordable at only $11, you can purchase it here.
Revlon Hair Brush Dryer: This nifty tool will make you want to break up with your hair dryer, maybe forever. It is the most genius invention, a combination of a hair dryer and a round brush in one! It helps reduce drying time significantly and simultaneously styles your hair. Trust me ladies, this is a great investment. You can purchase mine here.
Olaplex Bond Smoother My hair stylist recommended this stuff and I’m so glad that she did! I normally limit the products I use on my hair because my hair is fine and gets greasy fro products quickly, however, this styling creme really helps with smoothness and shine of my hair. BONUS: It smells divine! A little bit goes a long way, so even though this styling cream is a bit of an investment, it will go a long way! Oh and it is a safer beauty product too! Purchase it here.

Maelle Lip tint Another Maelle product I’m loving and super affordable at only $9! This lip tint is like a lipstick and chapstick in one and is super moisturizing. It lasts a decent amount of time and adds the perfect pop of color. Everytime I wear it, I get so many compliments about the shade; my favorite is the nude color. It’s a color with a little pop of pink and perfect for everyday wear. It comes in 6 beautiful colors and at only $9 each, it makes sense to stock up on a few different shades! Don’t forget, you can use my code JULIA10 to get $10 off your purchase from Maelle.
All of these products are current “must haves” for me, but what do you think? What are your current must haves?
Have a great weekend!
