Favorite Spring Beauty Finds

Happy Wednesday!


I hope your week is off to a great start! It’s finally May (woo hoo)! Depending on when you read this, I’m going to or have already gotten my second dose of my Covid vaccine (yay)!

As we transition to a new month and we inch closer and closer to warmer weather, I wanted to share some fun beauty finds that are affordable and that are perfect for warmer weather.

I have my top 3 Beauty Finds. Two are super affordable and can be found at the drug store, the third is a bit more expensive.


Here’s what I’m loving in a wrap up of beauty finds:


Tula Glow and Get It- Cooling and Brightening Eye Balm

I saw this show up on my feed on social media and after some friends recommended it to me, after hearing such great reviews, I had to try it. Tula is a skincare and beauty line, they carry it at some stores like Ulta Beauty and online. I already have a beauty and skincare routine down pat, but after hearing about some of their other products, I wanted to give them a try. I tried their Glow and Get it- Cooling and Brightening Eye Balm. I have been using it for a few weeks and I have LOVED it. I use it every morning around my eyes and it instantly wakes me up and gets rid of dark circles.It also has minty flavor so that helps wake me up too! Since I work weird hours and shifts, I get tired and sometimes it’s evident. I love that this allows to perk up my skin and face and I feel instantly refreshed! This has been a new spring season favorite for me.

Pantene Volumizer Shampoo and Conditioner


For all the hair lovers out there, I found a product that is a game changer for getting some much needed volume! I have pretty straight hair, so in the past I have struggled with finding a product that gave my hair some volume. After trial and error, I have found that Pantene’s Volumizer Shampoo and Conditioner has worked the best for me. I love that it goes on super smooth and leaves my hair feeling soft, but it gives me fullness too. After using it for a few months, I have noticed that my hair has looked fuller when I curl it, straighten it, or even leave it natural. It’s super affordable and accessible. I typically get mine at Target or Giant Eagle or wherever hair products are sold. This gets a 5 star rating for me.

Cocoa Butter Daily Skin Therapy Heals Soften Lotion


I know this isn’t typically the season for dry skin, but this will be something you will want to buy. I always have lotion with me, in my car, in my purse, by my bed, even in my desk at work. I love soft and smooth skin and especially with all the hand washing and sanitizing we have been doing with Covid-19, I love to use lotion as an extra layer of protection. I was looking for some heavy duty lotion for my skin and found this at Giant Eagle, no joke! Cocoa Butter Daily Skin Therapy I have been so happy with it so far. You can use it all over; hands, feet, legs, etc. I love the thick formula and the smell too! Because its thick, you only need a little bit. It goes on silky smooth too. This has worked perfectly for dry skin in the spring, I can’t wait to try it in the fall and winter. This was a favorite for me these past few months.

All these things are affordable and accessible. I got two from with Giant Eagle or Target, (but they can be found on Amazon too!) and the other one online. These are some beauty favorites that I have been loving. What have been some favorites of yours?

Favorite Beauty Finds

Hi Everyone! I hope your week is off to a great start. This weekend is my college’s homecoming weekend which will be a lot of fun and then next week is fall break! I cant believe I am almost to the halfway point of my last semester.

Today’s post is about things that everyone, especially women, LOVES and needs, I’m sharing my favorite beauty finds that I love and don’t break the bank. Sorry guys, this may not be an exciting post for you. 

My new favorite products

Before, I get into this post, I got all these products from Marshalls, but this post is not sponsored by Marshalls. I also wasn’t looking for these products, I was browsing the shelves and found them and they were all impulse buys, but I have been so happy with them. Also, I didn’t break the bank by purchasing them either. 

  1. Face scrubber
Front of the brush
Back of the brush

I have been looking for a face scrubber for the longest time. I didn’t want a brush that was too rough or hard. When I got this face scrubber, I couldn’t wait to try it. I love how there are two sides to the scrubber, a nylon bristle side and a silicone brush. The nylon side cleans deep and unclogs pores. The silicone side exfoliates dry or dead skin. I typically only use this one my face once or twice a week so I don’t dry out my skin. I also love how it feels after a good deep cleaning. I didn’t break the bank with this purchase, and I am happy with the result of it so far.

  • Jade Roller

I have heard about jade rollers for the longest time and when I finally got a jade roller, I couldn’t wait to try it out. The purpose of the jade roller is to revive tiring skin and recharge your skin for a natural glow. It’s great for priming skin before applying creams and lotions. It also promotes anti-aging, eliminates toxins, tones muscles, reduces puffiness and wrinkles, and stimulates blood flow to the skin. I use it a 4-5 times a week typically at night after I wash my face. I also put it in the fridge for 30 minutes before I use it to cool my skin. I have been so happy with the results of using this product. Not only does it have all these benefits but it’s a soothing way to relax and add to my skin care routine before bed or when I want to relax. Also, just want to point out that I don’t have an elaborate skin care routine, I use products from over the counter and it takes less than five minutes to do this routine, I’m all about making life simpler not more complicated.

  • Makeup brush cleaner 
Make up brush cleaner

Ever since I started wearing makeup in high school, I always had an issue with cleaning my brushes, whether it was how often to do it, what products to use, or cleaning them so often that they would break. Well, thanks to Marshalls, I found a game changer when it comes to cleaning my brushes. I got this make up brush scrubber and I have been loving it. It is silicone so it cleans easily at it has four different areas depending on deep you want to clean your brushes. Also, it has suction cups to stick to your sink, so you aren’t worried about it sliding around when you are cleaning them. This saves me time when I am cleaning my brushes and I know that they are getting a good deep cleaning. 

These are three beauty finds that I have been wanting to try for a while and I’m so glad I did. They all impressed me and I was pleased with the results. Lastly, I was happy that they were affordable and worth my time and money. What are some beauty products that you are loving and you would suggest? Sound off in the comments below!
