This list includes some of my favorite “clean” beauty products and some of the jewelry I wear when I actually put together an outfit that doesn’t consist of leggings and a t-shirt. (Click on the photos or blue text below for additional information.)

by / rosie jane – All of the scents are very light and fresh. Madie is my favorite scent – it smells like the beach. I purchased the sample collection before purchasing a full size bottle. It’s nice to try perfumes at home before buying; I use the left-over samples when traveling and there’s a discount on your full size purchase when you buy the sample collection.

Beauty Counter – Dew tinted moisturizer with sunscreen, it’s sheer but adds just a touch of coverage and I love that it has spf 20 mineral sunscreen. If I’m walking or exercising outside in the morning, this is the only thing I put on my face. Who am I kidding, most days this is the only thing I put on my face.

Beauty Counter – Touchup Skin Concealer Pen I’ve always been a huge fan of YSL Touche Éclat but I think this has better coverage and I like that it’s a clean product.

Nécessaire – A clean deodorant that actually works. Yes, please! I have this in the Eucalyptus Scent.

Nécessaire – This is a clean, thick body wash that lathers nicely. The bottles aren’t huge, but you don’t need a lot. I have both the Eucalyptus and Sandalwood scents, but the Eucalyptus is my favorite.

Elisabeth Bell Diamond Thorn Necklace – I saw this on Mary Lawless Lee of Happily Grey and I admired it for weeks before finally pulling the plug. I’ve been wearing mostly white gold jewelry for the last twenty years, but I bought this in 14k yellow gold and I’m really enjoying the gold with tan skin.

Uncommon James – Since I bought the necklace above in yellow gold, I decided I should get a few more earrings in gold. I bought these Hold Me Close Hoops for a simple everyday look. The 2nd Avenue pink lucite hoop was on clearance and I just couldn’t resist.

Tiffany – If you’re looking for new fine jewelry as a gift for yourself or someone else. I keep both of these in the small jewelry dish on my dresser and wear them regularly. John bought me the diamond T-bangle for our 30th wedding anniversary and I bought the small Metro diamond hoops as a gift to myself.
