I was a bit late to the Amazon band wagon, but I have really began to love it so much. Stuff comes so quickly! Below are some of the products that I’ve really enjoyed from Amazon this year.
Vaseline Illuminate Me Shea Butter Whipped Body Butter
This body butter is just gorgeous. You can buy it here: Vaseline Illuminate Me Shea Butter Whipped Body Butter
Advanced Clinicals Retinol Cream. Spa Size For Salon Professionals
This moisturising cream is a large size so I use it for the body, and it is a retinol cream so helps with skin texture of older skin. You can buy it here: Advanced Clinicals Retinol Cream. I used it at night after my shower.
Wooden Book Shaped Cutting Board Set
This is not something I have (yet) but absolutely LOVED the look of. I need some new cutting boards and these sit on your bench tops mimicking books. How gorgeous. You get a set of 3 Cutting Boards. You can find them here: Wooden Book Shaped Cutting Board Set.
Owala FreeSip Insulated Stainless Steel Water Bottle
My daughter bought me this water bottle for my birthday and I LOVE IT. It comes in different colours, and it has everything I need. The design is great, for example, I often find myself using the carry feature to pick it up. Love, love, love. You can find it on Amazon here: Owala FreeSip Insulated Stainless Steel Water Bottle
ETUDE Dear Darling Marker Tint
I bought these for myself this year, and my daughter kept pinching them because they are so great. They are small and easy to transport, give you lips a lovely stain that lasts, but also doesn’t last for too long if you know what I mean. They are really affordable too, for just over 10 dollars. You can buy it on Amazon here: ETUDE Dear Darling Marker Tint.
d’Alba Italian White Truffle Double Serum All-in-one Multi Balm,
Okay, this was one of my BEST finds for the year. As I have gotten older, I have found that concealer doesn’t sit as well on the skin under my eyes. I use this under my eyes and concealer sits so well on top. I also use it for general moisturiser for dry spots. You can get it on Amazon here: d’Alba Italian White Truffle Double Serum All-in-one Multi balm.
Gena Healthy Hoof Cuticle Cream
Okay, so this is THE BEST heel cream I’ve ever used. Amazing. You can get it here: Healthy Hoof Cream.
Good Hair Days Hair Pins – 2 1/2″ Plastic, U-shaped Magic Grip Hairpins
I have a particular hair style that I always do if my hair is dirty and these pins (kind of work like bobby pins) are amazing and I prefer them way better. They don’t pull on my hair but give a really good hold. You can buy them here: Good Hair Days Pins.
Moisturising creams
When it comes to skincare and moisturiser, I spend more on active ingredients (trettnoian and vitamin C) and less on moisturiser. I use two moisturisers in my routine. At night I like the La Roche-Posay Cicaplast Baume B5+ Repairing Balm. It is quick thick so I don’t like using it in the day, but it’s perfect at night.
The moisturiser I use during the day is the Dr.Althea 147 Barrier Cream which still provides good hydration but is a bit lighter on the skin.
Another one I like during the day (but not as much as I have seen others rave about), is the Embryolisse Lait Cream. It’s definitely worth a try.
Software Vitamin C + Ferulic Serum 30ml | High-Potency Brightening Serum for Dullness, Fine Lines, and Pigmentation
I’ve tried quite a view vitamin C serum, and for the price point (because some are SOOO expensive), I have found the Software Vitamin C + Ferulic Serum the best. It’s really changed my complexion and goes well under make up without pilling.
Amazon Essentials Women’s Fisherman Cable Turtleneck Sweater
I purchased this around Easter this year, and I wasn’t sure how it would be but I love it! Looks great. Excellent staple. Would purchase again: Amazon Essentials Cable Turtleneck Jumper
CRZ YOGA Womens Butterlift High Waisted Workout Leggings
If you’re looking for AFFORDABLE gym wear that feels buttery soft and high quality, the CRZ brand on Amazon are EXCELLENT. Forget the really expensive brands that are over a hundred dollars for leggings, these are great! Here’s the link to the long ones: CRZ Long Leggins.
Here’s a link to the shorts: CRZ Shorts
And here’s the sport’s bra: CRZ Sports Bra
Over Shower Holder
I find I have to replace these type of things every couple of years, and this over the shower caddy is one of the best I’ve found. It has rubber under the hanging hooks so it doesn’t damage the screen. The quality is great. You can get it here: Over The Door Hanging Shower Caddy Organizer
KEYRI Ladies Adjustable Leather Belts for Women Ladies Belts
I bought these a few years ago for travel and they have been one of the BEST purchases I’ve made. They are only $15.47 for a set of 3 different colour (black, brown, beige) and they have been fantastic! I find they just elevate an outfit and are comfy too. I’ve had people ask me about them when I wear them and they have purchased them too. You can find them here: Elegant thin belts.
12 Pcs Christmas Plaid Bows Decorations
I bought these for my tree last year and I just love them! There are different types of plaid available. You can get them here: Christmas bows.
Wella Professionals Luxeoil Trio
My friend put me on to this hair care and it LUXE and makes your hair feel amazing! It’s not cheap but I find it takes me a while to get through it. The kit comes with shampoo, condition, and hair oil. Find it here: Wella Professionals Luxeoil Trio.
Faux Rabbit Fur Throw Blanket
Buying throws can be a bit of a hit or miss, but I bought this for my bed a year ago and it has been fantastic! I love it, and the quality is great. It’s nice and snuggly and adds that textual element. Find it here: Faux Rabbit Fur Throw Blanket.
100% Premium Silk Twisted Silk Bonnet
If you’re looking for a sleep bonnet, I’ve tried quite a few on Amazon but this is the one I liked the most. You can find it here: Silk bonnet. I found it comfy and it stayed on my head. The others that have a tie that is in a bow at the front of the head are okay, but I didn’t find them as comfy as these ones.
