My Favorite Beautycounter Products:
Make-up
My simple daily routine – 5 minutes!!
- Dew Skin tinted moisturizer. I wear shade 2, read my review here.
- Tint Skin Foundation. I wear Linen in the winter and Sand in the summer. I usually mix the Dew Skin and Tint Skin for medium coverage – I put a little drop of each on the back of my hand and use this brush to apply. This is the first foundation I’ve EVER liked — you can read my review in this post!
- Blush – I either use the Cream blush (read my review here) or the Satin Blush in Nectar (it looks just like NARS Orgasm).
- Concealer Pen – I use the Light shade and I freaking love this concealer.
- Brow Gel – I currently have the clear one to hold my brows in place since they get unruly. Once my pencil runs out (soon!), I’m going to get the tinted version (in medium).
- Mascara – I personally don’t love their mascara but I know people love the Volumizing one! For my everyday mascara, I wear Ilia and loooove it.
- Lip Gloss – I am OBSESSED with the Rosewood. And I was NOT a lipgloss person before discovering Beautycounter’s lipgloss!
TIP: If you’re looking to overhaul your makeup, the Flawless in Five set has everything you need for a simple, polished look and you save 20% off by buying it as a set!
Makeup I use when I’m doing a little more!
- Mattifying powder. This has so many uses! Absorbing oil, setting make-up, blending eyeshadow. (Watch my tutorial here.)
- Necessary Nudes Eyeshadow Palette – I am OBSESSED with this and use it every day. It’s a great option for eyeshadow junkies or people new to eyeshadow since it has so many options to help experiment to find what you like! (Watch my tutorial here.)
- Liquid liner – This was the first liquid liner I’ve ever used and I LOVE it. Tips for applying liquid liner are in this post!
- Brow Pencil – I use medium.
- Bronzer – the best bronzer I’ve ever used! I like it better than Hoola (and it’s safer).
- Highlighter – I was not a highlighter person until I got this! The three shades are perfect for making me look a little more alive, especially in the winter months.
- Plumping Mist – helps set makeup and give it a nice even glow. I also use this in the afternoon/early evening when my skin starts to feel dry. We have radiators for heat and it’s SO drying!
- Lip sheer – Twig is a great natural, daily color. And I get SO many compliments when I wear Rose or Lily.
- Color Intense Lipstick – Brunch and Garden Party are my favorites!! I also Beautycounter Red — it’s the PERFECT red
My Skin Care Routine
Products are listed in the order I use them, along with AM & PM use noted.
Morning skincare routine
- Rejuvenating Cleanser
- This is great for dry and/or aging skin!
- Charcoal face bar
- I use this only 1-2x a week since I have dry skin and charcoal can be drying. It’s good after extra sweaty workouts since charcoal helps clear pores. I use it to wash my arm pits daily (and then use Primally Pure deodorant – more on that below) and also use it to wash my makeup brushes (details here).
- Rejuvenating Toner Pads
- Sometimes I’ll just rinse my skin and then use one of these, rather than actually wash it with the Rejuvenating Cleanser or charcoal bar.
- Radiance Serum
- Rejuvenating Day Cream – I LOVE the way this smells! If I want a lighter-weight lotion, I use the Countermatch Adaptive Lotion.
- I use the Makeup Remover Wipes after every workout!
Evening Skincare Routine
- Eye Make-up Remover – so gentle but takes off makeup easily.
- Cleansing balm or Cleansing Milk. They’re both so moisturizing and amazing for removing makeup. I use them both but tend to use the balm more in the winter.
- Toner pads
- Radiance Serum – this made a huge difference in my skin brightness! (Read my review here.)
- Overnight Resurfacing Peel – I think EVERYONE should have this product. It’s incredible. It helps with dullness, large pores, scars, spots, everything. And it’s safe for sensitive skin too. I use it 2-3x a week in place of the radiance serum. Read my review here.
- Face Oil – This is a game changer for dry skin. I use #1 Brightening.
- Countermatch Sleeping Cream
- Charcoal Mask – I try to use this 2x a week. It’s amazing what a difference it makes to help clear my pores and gently exfoliate my skin.
Body & Hair Care
- Volume & Shape Shampoo + Conditioner
- Volumizing Mist
- Body wash (smells amazing). I also like really like the men’s body wash and steal Tommy’s often! 🙂
- Primally Pure Deodorant – I really like charcoal and lemongrass. Tommy uses charcoal. Use promo code TERI for 10% off with this link!
- Countermatch Body Moisturizer My husband and I both use this – I love the pump!
- Body butter Amazing for dry skin. I use this in the winter.
- Hand cream I keep one in my purse, at my desk and in every bathroom. Love it.
- Hand wash & hand cream set. I keep the set by my kitchen sink)
- Body Oil – I add a couple drops of this to my lotion in the winter for extra hydration. I also use a tiny drop of it to smooth the ends of my hair – it kills frizz and makes it so shiny!

My Beautycounter Side Gig
I’m a Beautycounter consultant and I truly love working for this company. I love their mission, their products and their affordable pricing for high-quality, safe products. I’m super careful about what I put into my body by selecting and eating healthy food, so it’s kind of silly I haven’t been more careful about what I put into my body through the skincare products I use. Not anymore. I’m making a conscious effort to switch to safer beauty and skincare products — and Beautycounter has been the best way for me to do that. I love their products, I don’t have to do a ton of research since I know all their stuff is safe, and it’s not crazy expensive. You can read more about why I became a consultant here.
I really love sharing the best Beautycounter products I discover with my blog readers. And I would love to help you make the switch to safer beauty products too (even if it’s a slow transition, which is what I’ve been doing! Small steps are better than no progress at all!).
