Happy Valentine’s Day!

Here are 5 items from Amazon that I discovered over the past month and am loving. I have a sneaking suspicion you’ll find a new favorite (or two) among the list : )

Longline Sports Bra*

There are several reasons why I love this. First and foremost, it’s super comfortable. The material (nylon/spandex) feels good against the skin and it’s flexible, not at all constricting. In terms of the fit, I would recommend going with your regular size. I sized up to a medium because I was concerned it would be a bit too cropped. It’s a tad loose but still works fine for me, and it’s definitely not too cropped. The square neckline is flattering. I received the 3-blue and love it. There are a ton of other color selections- keep in mind, some colors are ribbed (like the one I have) and some are a shiny, non-ribbed. I definitely want it in another color- I’ll likely go with white. Support wise, I’ve worn this for a barre workout and during Pilates and it was great- it’s perfect for a low to medium impact workout. The seller is offering various coupons currently, ranging from 5 to 20% off so be sure to check those out.

COSRX Snail Mucin Repairing Essence

omg guys. If you’re looking for glow, this. product. is. it. The reviews are exceptional. I’ve had COSRX (a K beauty brand) and this essence specifically, on my mile-long “products to try” list for quite some time now. I finally purchased it in January and am hooked. COSRX also has a snail mucin sheet mask ; you better bet I’ve added that to the list as well.

My current AM routine: cleanse, spray toner all over, apply 2 to 3 pumps of this repairing essence to face and neck ( I pat it in), moisturizer and SPF. If you’re like me- a makeup minimalist who likes your real skin to be the focus-this product is an essential and one of the very best amazon beauty products.

Styling Tamer

This styling tamer from Mixed Chicks is awesome. It’s in a easy-to-work-with gel form that does not flake up and works perfectly for taming baby hairs. I use a toothbrush like this to apply and I only need a bit. I can imagine it will last me awhiiiile. Under $9.

Bass Brushes

I happened upon this brush recently and was impressed with the quality. The pins are made out of bamboo and won’t melt under the heat of the blow dryer. It feels like your scalp is being gently massaged while you brush. Also, it’s only $13! I purchased this large paddle brush too, and love it just as much.

LED Travel Makeup Mirror

I adore this. It’s foldable, the size of an ipad, and has a build in battery with an USB for charging. It has three light settings- white light, natural daylight and warm light. An A+ portable makeup light which solves the issue of suboptimal lighting or applying makeup on-the-go.

What do you think of these picks? Do be sure to let me know how you enjoy these, if you end up trying!
