Happy Tuesday, friends!
I don’t know about you, but there is NO OTHER TIME OF THE YEAR that makes me want to update/change out/refresh my beauty routine more than SPRING!
I love beauty year around, but coming out of the dreary days of winter into the bright, fresh days of spring always, always puts an extra pep in my beauty routine step.
What’s better than springtime beauty? Springtime beauty on SALE!
I always love, love, love, LOVE partnering with Colleen Rothschild because they let me know in advance when they’re going to be having one of their great sales. Right now, it’s their SPRING BEAUTY EVENT which means…
…$25 off a $75+ purchase, $50 off a $150+ purchase and $75 off a $200+ purchase!
I snapped this photo above yesterday morning as I was getting ready for the day. These are all tried and true and MUCH LOVED items in my beauty cabinet. The only thing missing is my beloved VITAMIN C NOURISHING CREAM which I ran out of and have already re-ordered (I seriously bet I’m on my 10th jar).
Here’s how I use these products each day:
I apply a thin layer of VITAMIN C BRIGHTENING SERUM to my clean face in the AM followed by…
…the RETINOL SUPREME EYE SERUM (I use it morning and night!).
Next up, I always, always combine either the SHEER RENEWAL CREAM or the MOISTURE VEIL SILK EMULSION (both great AM moisturizers) with…
…a bit of the ETHEREAL GLOW SERUM. Just a little goes a long way to give my skin a bit of warmth and glow without making it too bronze or tan. I love, love, love this combination! It’s the perfect oomph to my skincare.
And as you know, at night, I remove all of my makeup (even stubborn eye makeup) with…
… their RADIANT CLEANSING BALM! It is the GOAT! This is my VERY favorite product, and if I only bought one thing, this would be it. I use this every single day to remove my makeup and cleanse my skin. It never leaves my skin tight or dry. It’s hydrating and cleansing. My mom, daughters and I all use this every day. Love.
I follow that up with their AGE RENEWAL SUPER SERUM. I’ve used this serum for years and years at night under my moisturizer. It fights the six signs of aging: texture, dehydration, elasticity, fine lines, radiance, and tone. And then I wear the VITAMIN C NOURISHING CREAM as my nighttime moisturizer.
I talk about Colleen Rothschild time and time again because it truly is the holy grail for hair, skin and body for my mom, my three girls, and me. Speaking of which, this sale would be an excellent time to try the only SHAMPOO and CONDITIONER the ladies in my family use! Once you use it, you’ll never go back to the other stuff again.
Speaking of sales…
…SEPHORA’S SAVINGS EVENT is also happening, so it’s also a great time to grab…
…my GLOW SCREEN 🙂 .
I wear it every day as the “primer” under my makeup. It’s a wonderful SPF + GLOW for daily use.
I have been loving THIS MASCARA BY WESTMAN ATELIER. It quickly makes them both longer and fuller. #winwin
LANEIGE for the lips is always a good idea.
And of course…
…my signature spring/summer scent, BEACH WALK 🙂 .
Speaking of “beachy” things, before you head out today, I am also sharing the recap from our ROYAL CARIBBEAN CRUISE today as well! It was absolutely AMAZING. I hope you hop over there and check it out too. xx

So many fun favs! I use the super goop glow screen every day!

The CR shampoo and conditioner combo was a no for me. The scent overpowered and for those of us with a “scent sensitivity” unfortunately the products just didn’t work out. How about a scent-free version?
Marianne says
I agree, Lisa. While I do enjoy a nice scent, I found the scent of the CR shampoo and conditioner overly-strong and offensive.
Ginger says
Not too long ago you mentioned you were using the EltaMD tinted sunscreen. Do you use both the Glow Screen and the EltaMd? How would you compare the two?
Mix and Match Mama says
I just blogged about that on the “what we packed for the cruise post”. I LOVE the Elta and have been using it since this summer…but heading on to this cruise, I felt like I needed an oomph to get me over the winter blahs, so I used Supergoop. I love them both. The Supergoop just has that bit of “oomph” the Elta doesn’t have.
Laura Holmes says
I love Beach Walk also. I wear it every day. Wondering if you have any trouble with the scent lasting? I feel like after a short time I can’t smell it any longer. And, I use twice as much as other fragrances. Wondering if it’s just me. Hate to change scents because I adore the smell of this one!
Mix and Match Mama says
Sometimes I think that and then someone will tell me that I smell nice, and I’ll be reassured. I don’t think Replica scents are as strong as other fragrances, but I do think they last longer than we think.
Darcy says
Have you tried the Stila lip oil? I love Laneige products, and the Stila product is different – but in the same lane, but with more color deposited. 🙂 Happy Spring!
Mix and Match Mama says
I haven’t! Is there a shade you love?
Stacey says
Shay thank you for the Trader Joe’s AND Colleen recs + real life ‘how I use them’! I just added the glow serum for the first time; can’t wait to try It, need a little spring color! Do you think it’s different/better than others like drunk elephant? Thanks and happy April!!
Mix and Match Mama says
YES! I do! I think the Drunk Elephant is too thin and harder to build coverage.
Stacey says
Thank you! I thought the same thing about Drunk Elephant!
