CeraVe PM Facial Moisturizing Lotion

"When I'm in a rush during the day, something like the CeraVe facial moisturizing lotion can just be great to use. But if it's like before bed or in the evening and I really want to amp it up, I'll go to something like a barrier cream instead. I'm not going to use the barrier cream under all my makeup."

Kate Somerville Oil-Free Moisturizer

"I remember you talking about oilfree nourish, uh deep tissue repair, the OG kids moisturizers that just what a gang of moisturizers that was. I mean truly my pain is that in selling to Unilever they ended up discontinuing and then reformulating you. You didn't need to touch Nourish, there was nothing wrong with it, nothing. There was nothing wrong with oil free, don't touch it."

Rhode Barrier Butter Intensive Moisture Balm

"I really like the barrier butter from Rhode. It's very nice, it's just cocooning but it's not too thick. I love the Rhode Barrier Butter and it's great, but the scent sometimes throws me and sometimes I want it and sometimes I don't, and it's greasy. There's no, even the light one, it's greasy and the light one peels a little bit unfortunately, but I love the Rhode Barrier Butter."

Kate Somerville Peptide K8 Power Cream

"I love the smell, I love the feel, I love what it does to my skin. It's not something that you need if you're young, but if you are 35ish, 40, probably plus, certainly 50 plus, and certainly nearly 55 and a Nana plus, you will see the benefit of this. I kind of use this as a hybrid between a treatment and a moisturizer, so I will do my face, do a serum, maybe I'll put this on, and then I'll put a moisturizer on top because I'm greedy. I love it. I'll always have it. It's desert island for me."

Skin Rocks Rich Moisturizer Face Cream

"I generally use fragrance-free because then I'm not going to do any further aggravation. But it is my favorite moisturizer of all time. That's why we made it. My most used product. I'm not even embarrassed by it. The whole componentry of this product is recyclable. If we were to make it refillable, we would bring in a whole other piece of plastic. At the moment, that means you're using fresh plastic, and I don't want to do that. So for the moment, the moisturizer is not refillable."

La Roche-Posay Toleriane Dermallergo Moisturizing Cream

You don't want glitter. I'm a woman of a certain age, I'm not going to Coachella, I'm at home with the grandkids. I just want glow, not glitter skin to have some reflection points."

Jones Road Mascara Pitch Black

"I would have looked at the brush on the Jones Road mascara and thought I'm not going to like that, but it's actually a brilliant mascara. My only complaint is that it dries out quite quickly, but it gives you lashes and it holds the curl, which is really hard in something that isn't waterproof. I highly recommend it, I will be repurchasing, [...] and I've already bought another one."

You can get a big lash. It stays wet enough so that you can go back in and do a second coat when you've done the other eye, that's how I like to do my mascara. I love them.

Then I Met You Living Cleansing Balm

"This is Then I Met You and I have three Living Cleansing Balms. It's bright orange, it's beautiful, it smells like a dream which is important to me on cleansing. It destroys makeup, it destroys SPF. The reason I've used these the most is because with Then I Met You I can use these to remove makeup and SPF but I can also use them as a skin cleanser, so if I'm traveling I can use these as a one-stop shop if I want to."

CurrentBody LED Light Therapy Mask Series 1

"And here's the kicker: this mask is 31% stronger than any other LED mask out there based on independent studies. The mask can seamlessly fit into your routine for optimal results. I'd recommend using it three to five times a week for 10 minutes. And the best part: it's cordless, so you can use it anywhere, anytime. Cleaning, reading, listening to a podcast, or watching the telly. This is a fantastic product for anyone who's looking to improve their skin's texture and tone."

Pixi Glow Tonic

"When I first saw Pixi Glow Tonic at a blogger event, I looked at the ingredients list and blogged about it that evening. [...] Then basically I shut down the whole operation for about two months because the demand went through the roof."
