My Favorite Products from 2024
Happy New Year, readers! Today, I've created a list of my favorite products from 2024. These are all items I used repeatedly, repurchased multiple times, and would wholeheartedly recommend.
1. Capezio leotard. I can see myself purchasing more dancewear to wear for being active. These leotards are comfy, inexpensive, and are an evergreen product, meaning they won't be gone next season when you want to purchase another one. This was featured in my May roundup last year!
2. Touchland hand sanitizers. I bought my first Touchland in July and bought them for my sisters as stocking stuffers this past Christmas. It's a small luxury and they smell so good.
3. Espresso knock box. I had my espresso machine for 2 years before investing in one of these and it just makes life so. much. easier.
4. Leather iPhone case with MagSafe. I'm so sad that Apple no longer offers real leather iPhone cases. I have a 12, so it's an old phone, but I've always had one of these cases on my phone and I've never broken my screen, which I think is a testament to their sturdiness (I am constantly dropping and flinging my phone around on accident!)
5. Colectivo Decaf Mexico. I usually get this from Whole Foods and it's my most repurchased coffee from 2024. I didn't like it at first but it's full bodied, smoky taste grew on me with time.
6. Neutral cotton tank top. As a very fair skinned person, I had never found a 'nude' tank top that was light enough with my skin tone until trying this one. It's more pink irl, which is what makes it perfect. It's great for layering under colored clothing as opposed to a white tank top because it stands out less. I will be replacing this soon.
7. My Poolside Essaouira tote was probably my best purchase of the entire year. It goes with everything, is very sturdy, cute, and functional. It fits my laptop and I used it daily throughout the summer as my work tote.
8. Milk contour stick. This is my first cream bronzer/contour, so it's also my favorite. I will probably try other brands in the future, but this is a huge upgrade from powder.
9. Oil based makeup remover. I switched to waterproof mascara a while back to avoid dealing with flaky mascara and I love it, but the downside is that it's very difficult to clean off. This works better than anything else I've tried.
10. This adorable jaw clip, which I purchased at a gift shop last May. This was an impulse purchase, but it was too cute to pass up and is very sturdy and unique!
What was your best purchase of 2024?
