20 favorite new products for 2020
/It’s been quite a while since I’ve shared my favorite beauty products and now that I am breaking out the blog again in 2020 I figured this is a great place to start! I love trying new products and am constantly looking for what I truly believe works and actually enoy using.
Here are my 20 favorite new products for 2020 to add in to your beauty routine this year!
Dyson Supersonic Hair Dryer
I”ve had my eye on this hairdryer for probably the last two years. so many times I sat on the couch and was tempted to say yolo and purchase off qvc lol. I just never could get past the price… i mean it’s a good chunk of change. But after my hair stylist recommended it to me to help my hair grow for my wedding + a beautiful thing called AFTERpay usa was invented… i did it. I bought it.
let me tell you it was worth it! I ABSOLUTELY love my dyson supersonic and recommend to everyone. since using my hair feels healthier, looks shiner, and it gives me an amazing blowout. highly recommend for anyone looking to invest in a high quality hairdryer.
Skinceuticals Blemish + Age Defense Serum
Wedding prep has really made me start to take big steps for my skin health. i’ve recently started getting a facial done once a month at luna spa here in richmond, va. highly recommend! Acne is something i’ve always struggled with and still do UNFORTUNATELY. since being on accutane my acne has definitely improved but i still get frequent breakouts, especially around my time of the month.
this product was RECOMMENDED to me by my facialist erica and omg it works. I will put a dab of this serum on any blemishes i have before going to bed and in the morning they look so. much. better. definitely recommend this product to anyone looking for a quick solution for blemishes!
Tula Hydrating Day + Night Cream
my new favorite moisturizer. my skin feels so hydrated and ready to go when I put it on! I have combination skin and wake up with dry patches often. I love how this MOISTURIZER really sinks into my skin and does not get in the way of my makeup application!
BEAUTYCOUNTER Charcoal Facial Mask
so going back to wedding prep. my facialist also RECOMMENDED I do a charcoal mask once or twice a week to help unclog my pores + erase blackheads. (holy nose blackheads!)
a friend of mine sells beautycounter so i figured i’d support her and test out their charcoal face mask! i absolutely love the way my skin looks and feels after this and it really helps reduce any imperfections.
Hair Hearts Vitamins
i’ve been on the hunt for any and every way to get my hair to grow back. fall of 2018 i decided i wanted to chop it all off and while i loved my chic bob.. i’m ready to get my long locks back.
i found these hair hearts vitamins through hair by chrissy on instagram. you’ve probably heard of her, but if you haven’t she pretty much does the hair of every influencer out there. i was hesitant to try any type of vitamin fearing they would be a waste of money but i’ve definitely noticed growth in my hair since starting these and am excited to continue!
Loving Tan Deluxe Bronzing Mousse
i had a very bad habit of hitting the tanning beds all throughout HIGH SCHOOL and college. now that i am older and UNDERSTAND how bad they are for you, finding a good self tanner has really become a priority for me. this one by loving tan is a winner in my eyes.
self tanning can be challenging… the first time i ever tried to self tan… i got to work the next day and realized the front of my leg was a COMPLETELY different color than the back. lol. not good. luckily with time your application will improve.
i love this formula by loving tan and think overall my tan comes out streak free and blended beautifully. i highly recommend getting the tanning glove by this brand as well.
Micellar Cleansing Water
say goodbye to makeup remover wipes and hello to micellar cleansing water. i love this product so much and it works amazing at getting all your makeup off, including stubborn mascara. i put a small amount on a cotton pad and wipe everything off in just a few minutes. plus one bottle really lasts a while!
Bumble and Bumble Glow Thermal Protection Mist
i love when i go home from the salon with a new product to try and actually end up really enjoying it. i’ve never really used a thermal protection spray in the past but again back to wedding prep… i want my hair as healthy as can be. not only does this smell amazing, it makes your hair super smooth and protects from heat damage. win, win, win.
Flawless Finishing Touch
alright so lets get real. we’ve all got peach fuzz around our upper lip. i love this product for when i am in between threading sessions and need to get rid of a few hairs around my lip. i will also use this to smooth my entire face for a flawless makeup application.
Olaplex Hair Perfector No. 3
Olaplex no 3 is a great leave in product to help repair and strengthen your hair. you leave on for 10-15 minutes, rinse out, and you’re left with the smoothest hair i’ve ever felt. i recommend to everyone!
TATCHA The Silk Canvas Protective Primer
primers have always been one of those products that just confuse me. is this actually working or am i just paying $35 for another product? i’ve DEFINITELY used primers in the past i’ve felt have done ABSOLUTELY nothing but this tatcha silk primer is a game changer. I ABSOLUTELY love the way it feels on my skin and how pore perfecting it finishes. it is on the PRICiEr side but i highly recommend for any special events!
Sonic Makeup Brush Cleaner
When i saw this advertised a few months ago i knew i needed to try it. i am notorious for leaving my makeup brushes unclean for way too long. cleaning each one INDIVIDUALLY is so just too much work for once a week. this brush cleaner is a game changer and can clean multiple brushes at once. definitely worth the investment for any other lazy brush cleaners out there!
Wet Brush Original Detangler
i really can’t remember life before being introduced to the wet brush. this thing is magical. any knots, tangles, snags in your hair come out so quickly/easily. oh and 'i’m sure you picked it up by the name but you can use this brush with wet hair!!! no more 20 minutes of painful de-tangling with a comb.
ACTIVE HYDRATION BODY REPLENISH
i love everything about this product. the amount of hydration this lotion gives your body is amazing. it has become my go to all over body lotion and i use daily. leaves your skin glowing and hydrated all day.
Morphe
35O Nature Glow Eyeshadow Palette
i’m a big fan of neutral EYE SHADOW palettes. i’ve never been one to use crazy bright colors (well except my blue EYE SHADOW phase) this palette provides the perfect combination of neutrals to create so many beautiful eye makeup looks. it’s super affordable and great quality!
Urban Decay
De-Slick Oil Control Makeup Setting Spray
setting spray for me is super important in my makeup routine. i have combination skin so while in the morning i wake up dry.. by the end of the day my face is pretty oily. i love setting my makeup with this setting spray from urban decay. helps control oil and keeps my face i just spent 30 minutes crafting (lol) from moving around too much during the day!
Redken
Color Extend Blondage Color Depositing Purple Conditioner
i am always on the hunt for a good purple shampoo. being a brunette trying to have blonde hair is truly a challenge. it can turn brassy in the blink of an eye. this purple shampoo by redken really does the trick and helps keep away any brassy from popping out. i will use this every other wash to help hold my color.
Kristen Ess Satin Pillowcase
i was gifted this pillow case last year and i’ve got to say i am SURPRISED how much i love it. not only is it super comfy to sleep on but it helps your hair keep its natural oils and prevent damage!
Skinceuticals Hydrating B5 Gel
i love every product from skin ceuticals but their hydrating b5 gel is definitely a favorite. on days where i’m feeling extra dry, i’ll put a few drops of this serum on top of my tula moisturizer and it really helps give me just that little extra hydration i need. oh and it leaves you with a gorgeous glow.
Bumble and Bumble Thickening Dryspun Texture Spray
last but not least, thickening texture spray. yes please. i love this product because not only can you use it at your roots for volume but also as a “hairspray” for a super beachy TEXTURED hairstyle. i love how light it feels and does not leave your hair crunchy like some products do.
