On makeup free days I love to use this eye cream to help reduce puffiness, keep me looking fresh and prevents wrinkles.
Eucalyptus Deodorant Dhs69 MALIN + GOETZ
We carry MALIN + GOETZ at the studio and I love all of their products. I’ve heard many theories on the negative effects of deodorant, but I need something that will do the job with the amount of running around I’m doing! I love that this deodorant is free from things like aluminum, alcohol and is also cruelty-free. It leaves my skin soft and smelling great.

Brow Definer Dhs116 Anastasia Beverly Hills BadGal Mascara Dhs130 Benefit Cosmetics
I don’t wear a lot of makeup, especially when I am teaching so mascara is key. I used to get extensions but found it hard to maintain and time consuming. This mascara is volumising and lengthening.
My brows are microbladed, but when I want to add more definition, I find this pencil ideal. Super easy to use and blends well. Nourishing Shampoo 0.6 Dhs170 Grown Alchemist Shampoo
I have been highlighting my hair regularly for years, so I need a little extra TLC. I love that this
I find this foundation really light weight and moisturizing. I hate the heavy makeup feeling and this foundation allows my skin to still breathe as well as evening out my skin tone. Dry Shampoo Dhs50 Batiste
Working out every day but not wanting to wash my hair every day, it’s a good alternative. I was actually a bit late to the dry shampoo game, but now I’m hooked. Ash Toner Dhs120 Balmain
I try to use this once a week, spray and leave it in post shower when my hair is damp. I’m all about the ash blonde tone so to avoid brassy, yellowness this purple spray is magic.

I use this every night after a toner, applying a thin layer and it both peels and moisturizes. It leaves my skin super soft and still glowing in the morning. I can definitely tell the difference after using it regularly now.
