Gifting season is officially upon us! And Tula gift sets are making it easier than ever to gift our loved ones with amazing skincare! These Tula value sets are sure to be a sell-out so grab them while you still can!
Naturally-glowy skin is priority number one for me, being that half the time I don’t even bother with makeup. I want to make sure I keep my complexion looking dewy but not shiny, while also keeping breakouts at bay. The Brighter Days Set does just that and makes the perfect stocking stuffer! And for only $34 it’s the perfect gift to grab for your bestie, your sister, or even your mom!
I’ve gone through phases in my life where my skin has been splotchy and uneven, thankfully, I’ve finally found a routine that counters that completely! For the ultimate Tula skincare routine, the Glow All Out 8-Piece kit is a $256 value you can scoop up for only $119 with code WHITRIFE! Start the holiday season (and the new year) with your best skin ever. What a better gift to give than healthy and clear skin?
Of course, you can’t ever go wrong with Tula’s tried and true favorites. Stock up on these gift sets before they sell-out and be sure to gift yourself with some Tula love too. Your 2020 skin will thank you!
I’m getting more and more into my skincare routine as quarantine progresses. I also am taking preventative aging action now which I hope will make an impact in my future skin! Here’s a step by step breakdown of what products I am currently using (and loving) in my daily skincare routine.
If you haven’t jumped on the Vitamin C skin trend you are missing it. It’s like a dose of sunshine on your skin first thing in the morning. I’ve tried a handful of Vitamin C serums and this one is by far my favorite! I love gifting this product because I know EVERYONE will love it.
I know I talk about this Drunk Elephant moisturizer all the time but it really is one product that is absolutely worth the splurge. I use it every single morning and it’s a product that lasts such a long time!
For morning eyes this Tula eye balm is super easy to apply and doesn’t make my makeup fall off. It also makes me look like I had the best night’s sleep!
This tinted moisturizer by Tarte is a primer AND has SPF in it. It’s basically a magical 3-in-1 product that I cannot recommend enough. SPF is a MUST for every day, even on days you don’t plan on being outside.
Even if I didn’t wear makeup that day I always start my nighttime skincare routine with a makeup removing cleanser. I go back and forth between this Tula makeup removing cleanser and this one by Eve Lom. I love that the Eve Lom cleanser comes with a muslin cloth so I can really SEE all of my makeup coming off, it’s a bit of a splurge but it really cleans and hydrates your face. The Tula cleanser is also amazing so I love to alternate days between these two products.
I always use a toner after I cleanse my face, I feel like it gives me a neutral and even-start to my skincare routine and sometimes I even use it first thing in the morning. This witch hazel and rose water toner is such a bargain for the quality. I cannot recommend it enough!
One of my absolute favorite serums, this brightening serum does exactly what it says it does. It evens out your skin tone, reduces dark spots, and basically makes my feel glowy by morning. It lasts FOREVER and is good until the very last drop, so you definitely get your monies worth out of it!
My nighttime eye cream is a little more heavy-duty but definitely prevents dark circles. I love how it smells and a little goes a long way with this one.
Lastly, I love to make sure my lips are hydrated and this lip scrub by Kopari is an amazing exfoliant that I use at night and wake up with softer lips that don’t feel dry all day!
Depending on what my skin is like, I also love implementing a weekly facial mask!
This sheet mask from Dr. Jart+ gives me instantly brighter and more even skin. I love using this for when I want to feel like I’m at the spa. Pro tip: chilled cucumbers on the eyes may not do anything but it really enhances the experience.
If I need an extra dose of hydration this Waterfacial from Drunk Elephant is my GO-TO! I love how it leaves my skin dewy and glowy without being greasy!
And if I feel a breakout coming on this amazing Colleen Rothschild detox mask works wonders for a deep clean! I can tell an instant difference after I use this mask. It really cleans out all of your pores!
If you’ve been following me for any amount of time you know I am truly Tula obsessed! It is basically the only thing I ever use on my skin and it actually WORKS. My skin looks better than ever and I’m fully convinced it is because of their high quality products. Their collection is simplified and tailored to your specific skincare needs… all you have to do is take this Skin Quiz and they tell you exactly what products you need based on your areas of concern. It’s really that easy.
They just launched their new #SuperSoothe collection and I am totally in love. It’s perfect for sensitive skin. The Super Calm Gentle Milk Cleanser is AMAZING. It cleanses your skin and leaves you feeling refreshed but not at all dry. It’s incredibly lightweight and moisturizing, I hate feeling oily after washing my face and this leaves my skin glowing without all the shine and fits in perfectly to my Tula skincare routine.

Summer can take it’s TOLL on my hair and skin. From being in the sun and the chlorine, to boat days and the humidity… my hair can easily become dry and damaged. With Colleen Rothschild’s Quench & Shine Restorative Mask I am able to combat the brutal summer elements and keep my hair looking and feeling healthier than ever! I use this make weekly and it keeps me frizz free and helps tame split ends. The shower brush that’s included in the kit stimulates the scalp and helps my hair grow in healthier from the root. It gives me that straight-from-the-salon feel without costing me a fortune.
I also love using the Smooth & Shine Hair Serum for fly aways on the go! I’ve also found that using this serum to hold curls gives me a much more natural and touchable hold compared to using hairspray. And I LOVE the way it smells!
Right now they are having their HUGE Christmas in July sale with up to 50% off select items PLUS 20% off everything else!! (You can get this entire hair care essentials kit for only $34!!!)
For a limited time get my absolute favorite hair care kit for only $34!
Also wanted to give a quick shout out to my daily SPF! It is super lightweight so perfect for putting on under my makeup, it leaves me oil-free and provides SPF 25 without that “sunscreen smell.” And right now it’s 20% off!
It’s summer in the south, which means IT. IS. HOT. HUMID. AND STICKY. I’ve had my eye on this beauty mini-fridge for a while. (I mean, who on Instagram hasn’t, #minifridgeshelfie) Well, I finally took the plunge and bought one just in time for the full-on-sweltering-summer-heat; it was instant love.
For one thing, it looks super cute in my bathroom and makes me feel like Blair Waldorf when applying my skincare routine (or maybe that’s my newfound love of headbands?). Items with cooling ingredients get a boost of effectiveness when they are actually cool. So I feel like I’m getting my money’s worth out of some skincare splurges, especially ones I don’t use daily like peels or weekly treatments.
Eye creams and moisturizers that are cool, after a long day in the heat, feel so relaxing on my dry-summer skin. Chilled skincare products can also help to minimize that under-eye puffiness, acne, and tame irritated (or over-sunned) skin.
I’ve been semi-obsessed with my jade roller lately and I’ve always kept that in my actual fridge… Shawn is just happy it’s not taking up the butter dish space anymore. Keeping it handy and in the mini-fridge gives me that extra jolt of energy in the morning, and I also feel like it makes my face feel tighter while giving me a glowy start to the day.
And face masks, I will never use a non-chilled face mask again!! It is such a refreshing change to my routine that makes me WANT to take care of my skin and not go to bed with make-up on. (I know, I know, it’s really bad for your skin… but sometimes it’s just how it goes!)
Just be sure not to store your makeup or serums in here, the cold could cause them to thicken up and become less effective! Stick to eye creams, masks, and moisturizers. It can also prolong the life of organic beauty products that don’t have preservatives in them! I’m so glad I finally grabbed one of these for myself.
