Lemonhead LA 

Lemonhead LA Glitter Pots 2

Artist Megan Dugan founded Lemonhead LA in 2015 while on unemployment. Since then, the brand has skyrocketed, with makeup artists using the glitter balms on their celebrity clients all the time (Beyonce famously wore it during her iconic Coachella performance in 2018). Other makeup brands have also attempted to duplicate Lemonhead LA’s formulas for their own glitter products. One of the most amazing things about the glitter balms is that they are completely mess-free - you won’t even leave any residue on your fingers or hands after application! Furthermore, each product is handcrafted in small batches by Megan and her team of artists in Los Angeles.

Just spray onto dry skin, melt makeup off by moving your hands in circular motions, and rinse with water. It removes every stitch and feels so satisfying.

Baja Bae 

Baja Bae Happy Glo Lucky Drops

Baja Bae was created when lifelong best friends Carly Paiker and Tamarin Oblowitz realized there was a real need for a tanning product that was all-natural, smelled delicious, and didn’t leave any sticky or oily residue on skin. Baja Bae’s Happy Glo-Lucky Drops is a tanning accelerant lotion made with real caramel extract. It leaves a gorgeous bronze glow all over skin, and helps you get a deeper, darker tan. When not in the sun, you can also use it as a highlighter for skin!
