- Wen conditioning hair wash
- Carol's Daughter hair oils
- Oil of Olay cream wash
- Caudalie Beauty Elixir
- Ivory soap
- Vaseline
- E.L.F. brow compact
- Hourglass liquid lip rouge
The best piece of beauty advice I've ever received:
I think the biggest and best advice I’ve ever received is to always clean your face before going to bed at night. Nighttime is a restorative period for your body, mind and soul, so it's the perfect time to wash away the day’s worries and utilize your potions to promote beautiful healthy skin.
A woman of color whose beauty and style inspires me:
Michelle Obama has everything in one package: beauty and brains. Her style inspires those on both large and modest budgets to look their best always. Whether she's at a gala or gardening, she is always "flawless."
I think this makes a woman truly beautiful:
Be it haircare products, makeup or clothes a woman's true beauty will always come from within; the rest is a bonus.
Favorite goodies ever discovered in a COCOTIQUE Box:
Totally obsessed with Black Radiance True Complexion BB Creme in "Nude”, OKAY Jamaican Black Castor Oil, Cover FX Custom Cover Drops, Milani Rose Powder Blush and Cover FX Anti-Age Smoothing Eye Primer.
Favorite COCOTIQUE box overall:
Mega Beauty Box Volume 2. It had a little of everything with just enough of something new and amazing.
What I love most about COCOTIQUE:
I love that knowledge and care goes into each and every box. There is always something in each box that I haven't tried--and believe me, I have tried a lot of products. And I love that these well-curated products are for someone just like me. Lastly, their customer service has always been above par.
