Welcome into my home and heart! Here I share and style my latest finds to help you feel chic, comfortable and confident.
Can I help you find something, friend?
We all have our own set of unsexy self-care things we do to look and feel our best, so let’s share, ladies! No gatekeeping over here. 🙂 I’m 38-years-old and wish someone would have spilled the beans on these beauty and self-care tricks sooner. Here are all the unsexy things I do consistently to put my best face and foot forward each day.

First up is this cordless electric heating pad (yes, cordless!) that gets me through that time of the month. Hubby knows not to mess with me when I have my heating pad on. LOL.
It has 4 heat levels, 4 massage modes, an adjustable elastic belt and a 30-minute shutoff safety feature. It’s a lifesaver for menstrual cramps, and worth the investment since “it” happens monthly!
Next up is this body exfoliating bar for smoothing away bumps and roughness. I use it religiously. It helps prevent ingrown hairs, especially at the bikini line where you need it most. 😉 Simply use this bar to exfoliate before shaving and it works like a charm. Bikini season is upon us!
Y’all know I’m all about the benefits of lymphatic drainage, and this face brush is the real deal for your face! It’s super soft and glides right over your skin. I use it daily to combat puffiness and I swear I can feel the drainage leave my face.
If you’re not already aware, lymphatic drainage helps reduce puffiness, flush out toxins, and boost circulation, so your body feels lighter and more snatched. It’s the same for your face! This simple practice supports detox, reduces inflammation and leaves you feeling sculpted.
If you haven’t heard all the buzz about creatine, pull up a chair because I could write a book on this stuff! Creatine helps boost strength, power and endurance so you can train harder and recover faster. It also supports muscle growth, improves workout performance, and can even aid brain function. What’s not to love?
I use creatine powder every single day – no excuses! I mix one scoop of this flavorless powder with one scoop of my daily greens drink and 5 drops of my vitamin d drops. It’s such an easy everyday add that makes such a difference in your health.
Next up is this viral foot spray. When I say instant, I mean instant! This foot peeling spray is magic and will shed dead skin after just a few sprays with some light rubbing. No cheese graters over here, ladies! LOL. It’s insane how soft your feet feel (almost like you just got a pedicure).
I love how it’s an easy spray application and made of natural ingredients like coconut and aloe. Seriously, you won’t believe your eyes after you try it!
Another life hack on – you guessed it – lympathic drainage! This vibration plate is a staple in my home. Why not flush out toxins, improve circulation, reduce inflammation and boost muscle tone and weight loss – all in front of the TV? Just 15 minutes a day can make such a difference in the way you feel. I don’t know how I ever lived without it!
Here’s another viral one, ladies. They call this serum Botox in a stick! It helps smooth out fine lines instantly and over time with consistent use. I especially love it for under the eyes and around smile lines. I apply it right before my makeup and it helps create a smooth, glowy base.
You know how I am about natural products, and this pulling oil mouthwash is a shining star!
Oil pulling helps support a cleaner, healthier mouth by reducing bacteria, freshening breath, and promoting gum health. It can also help remove buildup on teeth and support overall oral hygiene.
I use this 10 minutes a day for naturally whiter teeth, fresh breath and healthy gums. It’s a no-brainer!
I’ve tried my fair share of detox masks, but this pore-minimizing detox mask is the GOAT! The combination of clay, caffeine and grape extract help tighten pores, absorb excess sebum, smooth and brighten skin. There’s nothing like drawing out impurities to help you feel like you’re putting your best face forward!
How long has it been since you washed your makeup brushes, ladies? I dreaded cleaning mine before I found this vegan makeup brush and blender soap that makes consistent cleansing a breeze! Now I wash mine once a week or at least every other week.
You simply swirl your tools into the wet soap, massage with your fingers and rinse the gunk out. It only takes a few minutes to keep my brushes feeling brand new and my makeup application flawless.
Remember, we said unsexy, and this might top the list! Nothing ruins a fresh face of makeup and a cute outfit like a stray nose hair! LOL. Am I right?
This nose hair trimmer is quiet, painless and effective. No one is above using it!
Comfort over cuteness when it comes to sleeping, ladies. Granny panties for the win! These panties are so comfortable, lightweight and breathable. They have a 100% cotton liner where you need it most. Since they’re seamless, you can even wear them daily and kiss panty lines goodbye.
This bio-retinol body serum is dreamy in more ways than one! I love unwinding to the heavenly smell of lavendar and letting the magnesium soothe my skin and muscles. The bio-retinol blend helps smooth fine lines and wrinkles, hydrate, improve elasticity and assist you in aging backwards – all while you sleep.
I love that they have both a full-size and travel size available so I never have to be without it!
Toner on your feet?! Trust me on this. This glycolic acid exfoliating toner helps brighten, smooth and even out skin tone and your feet need love, too! I apply on my heels before bed then follow up with a lotion. It keeps them super soft.
If you’re a mom, you’re tired. LOL. Eye creams are a life-saver in looking a little more put together before you fly out the door for school drop-offs or work. I alternate with these two eye creams because I love them both so much!
This eye serum – a blend of niacinamide, vitamin C, and caffeine – is amazing for brightening, depuffing and hydrating. It’s a rolling applicator that glides right over your skin and leaves the perfect cooling sensation to wake your eyes right up.
Another favorite is this pump-style eye treatment. This one is a splurge but totally worth it! It helps visibly lift the areas around your eyes while also smoothing, plumping and revitalizing.
This shower oil is a two-in-one. It cleanses and softens your skin with the most delicious vanilla almond scent! The smell alone helps put me right to sleep – all while helping my skin feel nourished, soft and supple. You can use it as a shaving base, too!
A glowy tan adds the perfect touch to any outfit! You’ve probably heard me rave about my favorite organic self-tanning lotion, but I recently tried this other self-tanning lotion and have to admit that I love it equally!
The struggle with self-tanners is that they often stain clothes and sheets, but both of these are clear and will not leave behind traces. They both develop gradually and give you a streak-free, natural-looking glow.
Glass skin will always be in! This peptide serum and vitamin C serum, with their powers combined, make the secret sauce for glassy, glowy skin!
Vitamin C brightens your complexion, evens skin tone, and helps fade dark spots while boosting collagen for firmer, glowier skin. It also protects against environmental damage.
This peptide-powered serum helps reduce wrinkles and expression lines while revealing glassier skin. Though it’s an amazing complement to Botox and helps it last longer, it can be used on its own for those who want to avoid injectables.
I use both of these daily and cannot speak highly enough about them!
Whether your face is craving heat or cold, this cordless depuffing facial wand has it! I love using the cold option in the morning under my eyes for a quick pick-me-up.
The cold setting helps depuff and reduce the appearance of pores and dark circles while the heat helps skin look radiant.
The tip is a contoured design that glides into and over hard-to-reach areas like under the eyes and around the nose.
I also love how lightweight and travel-friendly it is so I never have to be without it. Bonus: no cord!
Crepey skin is a given with age, but it doesn’t have to be! This hyaluronic body serum and algae body oil are both fast-absorbing, non-greasy products that help boost moisture and skin elasticity.
I apply both to clean skin from the neck down before bed. Bring on the plump, crepe-free skin!
Whew! Thanks for coming to my Unsexy Things Ted Talk. LOL.
I hope you try some of these products and love them as much as I do! You can view the entire collection of products here.
