Hanni Splash Salve // I love this in-shower body mask—it hydrates and conditions, leaving my skin soft and nourished, and eliminates the need for lotion on the days I use it. Just apply it to wet skin after cleansing or shaving, rinse quickly, and pat dry. It works better than lotion and even helps my self-tanner go on more smoothly.

LAURA GELLER NEW YORK Modern Classic Lipstick // This lipstick is so rich and creamy, and the color really lasts. I’ve been wearing Real Rosy.

IT Cosmetics Bye Bye Pores Finishing Powder // My favorite setting powder to apply over foundation in the mornings. I even keep a compact in my purse for touch-ups!

Farmacy Green Clean Makeup Removing Cleansing Balm // If you want a good “green” cleansing balm, this one’s a winner. It has a subtle, fresh scent and removes every trace of makeup.

It’s the only night cream that can handle my extremely dry winter skin, but I use it year-round.
