]]> Trader Joe’s is our go-to grocery shop for all things delicious, but they’ve also got a surprisingly solid range of skincare and beauty products. Some are unique to the TJ’s brand, and they’ve even got a few we suspect are dupes for well-known cult favorites. Because it’s Trader Joe’s, most of the products are available at an affordable price point and many are formulated with clean and simple ingredients. If you’re in the market for new skincare that won’t break the bank, here are a few we recommend.

Hair Rescue Set

This set includes a clarifying shampoo made with charcoal and peppermint to exfoliate your scalp and help get your hair seriously clean. Follow it up with the deep moisture hair mask for nourishment and shine. We’ve read theories that the set is a dupe for some products by the hair care brand Briogeo. If the rumors are true, it’s a steal at about ¼ of the price.

Brazil Nut Body Butter

If summer were a scent, it would smell like this body butter. That said, it’s rich and moisturizing enough to stand up to even the driest winter skin. With coconut oil, shea butter, and Brazil nut seed oil, it’ll leave you soft and glowing from head to toe.

Watermelon Face Mist

If your skin is in need of a little refreshment, be sure to try TJ’s Watermelon Face Mist. It’s made with watermelon seed oil and a blend of botanical extracts and is gentle enough to use as part of any daily skincare routine.

]]> Are you tired of spending endless hours on your hair and still not achieving the results you desire? It may be time to replace your traditional blow dryer with a blow dry brush. Blow dry brushes are an easy-to-use tool that will revolutionize your hair routine by combining the styling power of a blow dryer with the convenience of a regular brush. You’ll be able to effortlessly create smooth and voluminous locks that look as if you’ve just spent hours at the salon. If you’d like to try a blow-dry brush but aren’t sure which model to choose, here are some of the ones we especially love.

Drybar The Shot Collection – $155

Nobody understands what goes into a great blowout better than Drybar, and their Shot Collection is a testament to that. This line of blow dry brushes includes three different sizes, aptly named “The Half Shot,” “The Single Shot,” and “The Double Shot,” all of which are designed to reduce frizz and help you achieve the curl and definition you’re after.

Revlon One-Step Volumizer PLUS – $60

For salon-level results at a drugstore price, you can’t go wrong with Revlon’s take on the brush/blow dryer hybrid. Its shape and size dries hair quickly, allowing you to avoid flyaways and create maximum shine. 

Amika Double Agent 2-in-1 Blow Dryer + Straightening Brush – $120

While most blow dry brushes have a round shape to help add curl and volume to hair, this brush by influencer favorite brand amika is designed to smooth and straighten hair for those who prefer a sleek, laid-back look. It works on straight, wavy, and curly textures and can be used on both wet and dry hair.

]]> Scroll through beauty accounts on social media and you’re likely to notice that many of the most popular posts are focused on the subject of French style and beauty. The French seem to have a knack for formulating skincare products that work exceptionally well, and fortunately for us, we don’t have to book a transatlantic flight to acquire them. There are a few we’ve discovered at our own local pharmacies that we now wonder how we ever lived without. 

Bioderma Sensibio H2O Micellar Water

Micellar water is a gentle, yet effective way to remove impurities such as dirt, oil, and makeup. Unlike other facial cleansers, it protects the skin’s natural barrier and doesn’t need to be rinsed away after use. Bioderma’s micellar water for sensitive skin is made with cucumber to soothe irritation.

Caudalie Vinoperfect Serum

This serum is formulated with a potent Vitamin C alternative that improves skin’s texture while reducing the appearance of dark spots. It’s also oil-free, 100% vegan, and now comes in sustainable packaging.

Avène Thermal Spring Water

It may seem odd to make a point of spraying water on your face as part of a beauty routine, but this product is worth every penny. It contains thermal spring water bottled directly from the source and does a fantastic job of soothing and hydrating sensitive skin when applied throughout the day.

]]> There’s such a novelty to seeing companies come together to create a unique product, so you can only imagine how psyched we were to learn that Sprinkles—a popular bakery best-known for their red velvet cupcakes—recently teamed up with Kitsch, a beauty and hair accessories brand with a cult following that we can admit to being part of. The brands have launched a limited-edition collection of colorful scented soaps that look good enough to eat, and you can be sure that these are on all of our wish lists this season. Here’s what you need to know.

Scents

This collab features three new body wash bars inspired by some of Sprinkles’ most popular cupcake flavors. Scents include chocolatey Red Velvet, sweet Strawberry, and vanilla cream Sprinkle. The soaps are even designed to look like cupcakes themselves.

Availability

The collection is available in one gift set including all three bars for $21.75 from the Kitsch website here. It’s a limited-edition collaboration, so be sure to grab yours before they’re gone!

Sustainability

Kitsch is Leaping Bunny certified, meaning all of the soaps are 100% vegan and cruelty-free. Additionally, the collection comes in plastic-free packaging.

]]> Clean beauty has become a hot topic over the last few years. An increasing number of brands are removing toxic ingredients from their existing products, and even more new brands are entering the market with high-quality, natural products made with simple and effective ingredients. One of our favorite new brands is Farmacy, a cruelty-free company with a mission to “cultivate conscious beauty.” All of their products come in 100% recyclable packaging, and they even work closely with nonprofit Feeding America to help fight hunger in the United States. Farmacy donates a portion of sales from select products and a number of meals to the organization every year! Here are some of their products we love.

Honey Halo

Honey Halo is the moisturizer that will have you saying “goodbye” to all other moisturizers. It’s part of the brand’s honey line and formulated to deeply nourish and hydrate dry skin.

Green Clean Cleansing Balm

This award-winning balm is formulated to dissolve stubborn makeup without stripping the skin of its natural protective barrier. Ingredients like lime and orange essential oils will leave your skin feeling invigorated while also helping to even out texture and tone.

Deep Sweep Toner

This toner is formulated to deep-clean your pores and leave your skin feeling fresh. It contains 2% BHA, an acid used to control oil and a great option for anyone with acne-prone skin. We especially love that it’s made with chlorella to soothe and calm any inflammation.
