Hello Friends! Happy Saturday! Today I’m sharing some of my favorite Beauty & Hair Care products and trying out some new ones as well! All these products listed below are drugstore brands! I’m always a little skeptical when trying new things because my skin is so sensitive, but it’s fun to venture out and try to find “New” favorites! First up, I’ll start out with the makeup products.
This cream contour is a new product that I am trying! So far I can say that I really like it! It’s a smooth & creamy consistency + it’s super easy to blend!! I just contour all the usual areas of my face ( cheek bones, hair line, jaw line + nose) with a mix of # 2 and # 4 then blend by using small circular motions. (Cream contour is great when you want a mosturized and less drying look)
I’ve also been trying this MILANI CONCEAL + PERFECT foundation this week, another great find!! I’m loving it. I would say it’s medium to full coverage. This foundation also works to conceal any discoloration under the eyes as well. I go in with a brightening setting powder under my eyes to set the foundation in place.

Next I have a Primer and a Setting Spray that I am trying out!!
This primer has a nice pump for easy application, with a consistency of a moisturizer or light lotion. It doesn’t have that silicone feel of most primers that I have used. It has a light clean smelling scent – and it goes on smooth!! I use one pump on the back of my hand, then dab the product on my face + blend!
Photo Focus Primer Water || seen here || I have to start out by saying that this Setting Spray smells Amazing!! If you are a lover of coconut 🥥 scents, you will love this! It’s light and refreshing. I use this after I have my whole face done (before my mascara) (I use about 3 sprays for my entire face)
Lastly I have some hair care products that I’ve been loving for a few months now!!
Shea Moisture || leave in Conditioner || seen here
I’m loving this leave in conditioning treatment!! I use it on my hair and my daughters. We always use it on wet hair before brushing, spray into the palm of your hand (about 3 sprays) then distribute thoroughly through ends. (avoid root area) Then brush and style as normal!! It leaves your hair feeling silky smooth without any sticky or greasy residue.
NOT YOUR MOTHERS NATURALS || Leave In Conditioner || seen here This is another leave in conditioner that I love! This one is great as a detangler and gives great softness to your hair as well, but more affordable. I love this one for my daughters when they have tangled hair.. it works like a dream!! Gives them silky smooth hair!!
L’Oréal Paris Elvive || seen here || This is a great conditioning treatment for your hair! I’ve used this for a while now, and every time I use it I love it even more! It leaves my hair feeling so smooth and silky with out a heavy weighted down feeling. It’s great for a once a week deep treatment!
FREEMAN DRY SHAMPOO || seen here || Can you tell I love coconut 🥥 scented products lol!! Aside from the scent being Amazing..this product works great! It does the job of keeping my hair clean in between washing! I’m usually an every other day hair washer, so this product is great for days when I need a refresher. I use this by sectioning my hair and spraying at the root (keeping the nozzle about 4 inches from my head) focus on where ever you part your hair, the sides around your face and the nape of your neck. All the areas that tend to get oily the most. Then take your fingers and work the product into your hair at the roots!! Simple! You’ll feel refreshed all day!
I hope you enjoyed my list of beauty and hair products that I’ve been really loving!! Once I find something that works good, I definetley stick with it! Have a great Weekend everyone and I’ll see you in my next post!! XO Marie
