It’s day 20 of staying at home, and I’ve perfected my 60-minute pamper routine. These are products that I’ve been using for at least 2 months, so I have made up my mind about all of them. This is a long one.

🧖♀️Bodycare 🧖♀️
Lather Bamboo Lemongrass Foaming Body Scrub - $39 | 8 oz | 5 min
Goodbye ashiness and crusty joints. This body scrub is a perfect hybrid of a exfoliator and a body wash. It has just enough foam to help the scrub glide across the skin, making it easier to control how hard I want to exfoliate. The smell makes my shower smell like a spa.
Palmer's Cocoa Butter Formula Moisturizing Body Lotion - $4.99 | 13.5oz | 2 min
Affordable, smells amazing, and heavy duty moisturizing. I like to save on body lotion so I can splurge on shower products. I get complimented on the smell every time I use this. It’s the body lotion that keeps on giving. The pump is a lot more sanitary and manageable compared to squeezing tubes. This big bottle is going to last me forever!

Briogeo Don’t Despair-Repair! Deep Conditioning Mask - $36 | 8 oz/ 237 mL | 20 min
I invested in this mask after going through a hair color change. This hair mask gives me noticeably smoother and healthier hair that lasts until my next wash. The only thing to note about this hair mask is that, it needs TIME!
If you don’t have 15-20 minutes to spare in the shower, the results will be underwhelming. I usually just apply, put on a plastic shower cap to seal it in, and go through with other steps in the shower.
Briogeo Farewell Frizz™ Blow Dry Perfection Heat Protectant Crème - $24 | 4 oz/ 118 mL | 1 min
I’ve started diligently putting this on before I blow dry my hair, and I can confidently say it makes a difference. My hair is less frizzy after I blow dry it doesn’t make my hair oily. I bought this last September and still have a bit left, definitely worth incorporating into your haircare routine.
👩🏻Face Mask 👩🏻
Glossier Moisturizing Moon Mask - $22 | 3 oz | 20 min
I get the hype around this mask now that I’ve experienced its soothing powers. When allergies or heavy makeup irritates my skin, this is my go-to mask. The mask is just thick enough that I can put it on do whatever, without worrying it would drip down and get messy. This is my second tub, won’t be my last.
Glow Recipe Watermelon Glow Sleeping Mask - $45 | 2.7 oz | Overnight
Came for the packaging, stayed for the results. I didn’t expect to fall in love with this mask but I did! The AHA + Hyaluronic Acid combo hydrates and brightens, without irritating my sensitive skin. The consistency is very unique, it starts of f runny but after a few minutes, it creates a gel-like barrier on the face. By the next morning, I’m usually left with a few pieces of small residue and happy skin. I would recommend buying the smaller size to give it a try before investing in the big jar. (The 30ml one is $22, not bad)
👩🏻Lip Care 👩🏻
Fresh Sugar Lip Polish Exfoliator - $24 | 0.6 oz | 2 min
This lip scrub is by far the most gentle lip exfoliator I’ve used. With other lip scrubs, I can easily over-exfoliate and leave my lips very tender. This lip scrub dissolves slowly as I’m rubbing, leaving my lips moisturized and protected. Sometimes I don’t even apply lip balm after this exfoliator, I can go straight to lipstick. Not to mention the fact that it smells (and tastes) like brown sugar candy.
Laneige Lip Sleeping Mask - $20 | 0.7 oz | Overnight
This is a staple on my nightstand, the last step to my skincare routine overnight. I wake up with softer and smoother lips every time, and I notice the difference when I forget to use it. It doesn’t have harsh chemicals and works even better when applied after exfoliating. $20 for a really big jar is unbeatable value to me.
