10 BEAUTY PRODUCTS I’M GRATEFUL FOR
I know the holidays come with a mix of joy, chaos, family dynamics, deadlines, and a million things to do. But if no one has told you yet—I’m proud of you. You made it to today. And that’s worth celebrating.
This week felt like the perfect time to pause, breathe, and talk about gratitude, especially when it comes to the little things that make your life easier. Because yes, transformation is deep and emotional… but sometimes it’s also a good mascara and a moisturizer that doesn’t make your skin mad at you.
And in the spirit of gratitude, today I’m sharing
10 beauty + self-care products I’m genuinely thankful for this year.
Not because “more is more,” but because intentional choices = less stress, less decision fatigue, and more peace in your day.
A Quick Note Before We Dive In
You know me—I’m the queen of helping you avoid overconsumption. But I am passionate about choosing the right things, the things that genuinely support your lifestyle, your confidence, and your well-being.
Your beauty routine shouldn’t drain you.
Your beauty routine should support you.
So here’s my gratitude list for the year—
the products that truly made my life easier, more intentional, and more effortless.
1. Hourglass Unlocked Tubing Mascara
The one that NEVER smudges, flakes, or transfers. My lashes stay tight and right through the gym, long workdays, everything.
2. La Roche-Posay Lipikar Wash AP+ Gentle Foaming Moisturizing Wash
Accutane-friendly, sensitive-skin-friendly, winter-skin-friendly. She gets it done every time.
3. La Roche-Posay Triple Repair Moisturizing Lotion
Thick, creamy hydration with no sticky finish. My elbows, face, chest—everywhere—say thank you.
4. Maybelline Vinyl Ink Lip
SHOP MAYBELLINE VINYL LIP HERE
Gloss + longwear lipstick had a baby. Chef’s kiss. Doesn’t move all day. Affordable magic. I’m obessed with the shade ‘cheeky’.
5. e.l.f. Lip Gloss
Don’t sleep on her! Glass-skin-on-the-lips vibe. Buildable, flattering, and always in my bag. I love the shade ‘Honey Talks’.
6. Skin Tints (Lancôme + Dior Backstage)
This was my soft-era complexion trifecta. Hydrating, buildable, and skin-forward. Perfect for my acne-journey girlies.
7. Crest White Strips
Your daily herbal teas have nothing on this combo. My smile is smiling.
8. Rare Beauty Liquid Blush
The shade range alone makes me emotional. Every undertone, every complexion—Selena did what needed to be done. I love the shade virtue.
9. My Wig Collection ARAMIS TYLISE
A blessing. Efficiency meets beauty. My natural hair stays healthy, and I don’t fight for my life getting ready. Use code TIFFANY

10. And last but not least… YOU.
I know it sounds cheesy, but it’s true. This community has changed my life. Every message, comment, repost, and “Tiff, I tried your tip!” makes this work so meaningful.
Thank you for being here.
A Thanksgiving Reflection: Choose Intentionally, Not Excessively
This wasn’t a “go buy all of this” episode.
This was a slow down and choose better episode.
Because you don’t need 1,000 products.
You just need the right ones.
You deserve a routine that brings ease—not stress.
You deserve to look in the mirror and feel like yourself—on your best days and your messy days.
A Little Holiday Surprise…
If today’s episode had you thinking,
Tiff, I want my routine to feel easy… I want to know what actually works for me… I want my glow-up to make sense,
I got you.
I'm opening 1:1 beauty lessons + virtual consultations again.
Whether you want an everyday routine, a skin-forward makeup look, or help choosing the right products—
it's just me and you for 90 minutes, building a routine around your life.

A Gratitude Practice For You This Week
Before you log off, ask yourself:
What’s one small thing that made your life easier this year?
And what’s one thing you’re grateful to yourself for?
Write it down.
Say it out loud.
Or whisper it to God.
Just acknowledge it.
Because your transformation isn’t only about where you’re going—
it’s about honoring where you are.
Happy Thanksgiving, friend
Thank you for choosing to spend your time with me each week.
It’s the most valuable thing you have, and I don’t take it lightly.
Wishing you rest, joy, connection, peace, and a soft holiday season.
I’ll see you next week.
With gratitude,
Tiffany
