June 2024 was a rough month for me. Along with stress from work (And other life related stress), there was no water to my house for three days and a power outage on a day when outdoor temperatures were over 115 degrees Fahrenheit. None of these things helped my ongoing healing from my eczema flare up from last year.

Even though I went through some pretty stressful situations last month, my eczema didn’t flare up too badly. In fact, I was able to calm it down enough that my skin swelling decressed more than it was at the beginning of the month! I credit this to my change in lifestyle by focusing more on sitting down and resting more often, ridding my life of stressors (Thus why I’m so interested in declutting and cleaning), and a major change in beauty products I use.

I made major changes since December in the kind of products I use and why. As an extra layer of precaution, I am not using any fragrances. I have an idea when I will start to wear them again, but it probably won’t be until November at the earliest. Also, I am also not wearing much makeup. The makeup I do wear is the same products in the same color. All these things have improved my skin condition and made swelling go down.

Even though my beauty favorites for June 2024 are either very eczema friendly products or are old makeup products I may have talked about before in the past, I still wanted to write a post dedicated to them. They are truly my beauty favorites for the month and, even though they may not provide a lot of inspiration to anyone looking for new products, they are something I am using and work very well to care for my body and my overall health.
