I've been looking for good skincare products for babies, and I wanted to ask your opinions. My daughter is almost 9 months old, and she's especially in need of a good sunscreen/sunblock. If you know of any, or just any kind of baby skincare, I'd love to hear your recommendations!

Baby-safe skincare?

I'm trying to coax my boyfriend into taking care of his skin more. He doesn't use sunscreen, which stresses me out. 😭 He tells me he'll be fine since his skin is significantly darker than mine. (I've warned him of the risks of sun exposure.)
He's tried sheet masks, but he isn't a fan of them so I'm not trying to push him into the deep end of the skincare pool. Lol

Please give me some tips if you've had any success with getting your partner into skincare!

Tips for convincing partner to try skincare?

I don't intend this as a brand roast post, just to clarify! I'm curious if anyone else has a brand (or brands) you can't use? For me, it's The Saem. I've tried several of their products such as moisturizers and different face masks, and my skin has reacted badly to every single one of them. 😭 I had to give the rest of my sheet masks to my niece, who was able to use them with no problems.

Do any of you also have reactions to The Saem products? And which brands do you personally find unusable?

Any brands you can't use?

I'm pretty sad that I got demoted this month. 😢 I've written more reviews than I have before and even started including videos, but I guess the quality isn't good enough, or I'm not participating in discussions enough. 😭
There aren't really any perks to it (that I know of), but I guess it's just a little discouraging. Has anyone else had this happen to them this month or in past months?

It contains salicylic acid, which I've read doctors don't recommend using frequently during pregnancy or breastfeeding, so I had to stop using it. 😭 I'll most likely go back to it once my baby is weaned though.

This toner was one of my pre-pregnancy holy grails. It's hydrating, soothing, and helped a lot with my acne. The consistency of it is a bit thicker than most other toners I've used, but still liquid. (So maybe somewhere in between a watery toner and a serum.) It feels really nice when applied, so I also sometimes liked to use it on my arms and hands. It's a pretty big bottle too, so it lasted me a long time!

I honestly can't think of anything bad about this. One thing that might be bothersome to some people is that you might have to use a little bit more to remove waterproof makeup, but that's not really an issue for me.

This is the first cleansing balm I've tried, and I'm loving it!! 🥰 (I ran out of my cleansing oil so I decided to try a balm just for funsies.) The texture is really satisfying, and it removes makeup easily.
It also made quite a difference in the hydration and brightness of my skin! I was surprised at how soft my skin was after I tried it for the first time. I think its claim to be nourishing for skin is true for me!
The inner lid and spatula that came with it are so useful too. The inner lid even has a place to hold the spatula so you don't have to store it elsewhere. 😊

Some people may not like the initial sticky feel, and they may also not like the wait time for it to set before applying makeup (which is about 30 seconds).

I received this product for free from Influenster and e.l.f. Cosmetics in exchange for my honest review.
This is the first primer I've used in a while, but I can certainly say I'm impressed! It starts out a pale teal and goes on clear. It's hydrating and has a dewy finish. My makeup went on much more smoothly and looked better than normal too, even at the end of the day when I would normally start to look like a wax figure at its melting point. 😅
It also really does have some serious grip! I tested it out by rubbing my fingers across my cheek, and my makeup didn't budge.

I haven't had any negative experiences with this, but it may sting a bit if you accidentally get it in your eyes. 

I got a travel size foam cleanser with my Clean It Zero: Nourishing cleansing balm as a set. I originally got it mostly for the balm, but I ended up loving the cleanser too! 

The cleanser comes out of the tube creamy and pale pink. It reminds me a lot of cake icing for some reason. 😂 After lathering it up, it becomes a rich white foam that feels soft and soothing as I massage it into my skin. 

The result after rinsing? Clean and supple skin! I was surprised at how glowy and soft my skin was the first time I tried it. Normally, using a second cleanser feels kind of like a chore for me, but I actually look forward to using this one. I'll likely need to get the full size next time!

I can only think of one thing that might be bothersome, and it's that it's not very long-lasting. You'll likely need to reapply at some point during the day.

Well People kindly gifted this lip oil to me. ❤ I was very much looking forward to trying this, and it exceeded my expectations!

The first thing I noticed was the packaging. The doefoot applicator is uniquely shaped, and I haven't seen any other applicators with quite the same shape. It's curved to fit the contours of your lips.

The lip oil itself glides right on smoothly, and it's very comfortable on my lips. Many lip products start to feel uncomfortable after a while, but I didn't have that problem with this lip oil. It contains lots of clean, plant-based ingredients, as well as a lanolin alternative that contributes to the smooth, moisturizing feel.

I received the shade "Desert Poppy," which is absolutely gorgeous! I felt that it was quite flattering on me, and I think it would be beautiful on anyone of any skin tone.

This absolutely deserves the hype it's gotten! 😄 I definitely recommend it, and I'll be buying more in the future.
