Amrit Tietz
Bumble and Bumble
Thickening Spray
For Amrit, Bumble and Bumble’s Thickening Spray is a go-to post-pregnancy. “It leaves you with bouncy, shiny, and voluminous hair… a perfect aid to postpartum hair loss,” says the DJ, host, and mom. It’s great for straight and wavy hair, as it helps to add volume pre-styling.
Hourglass
Veil Hydrating Skin Tint Foundation
“I DJ’d an event for Hourglass and got hooked on this barely there skin tint,” says Tietz. As a mum, my look is always very natural and on the go, so this gives me that no-makeup makeup look I’m going for.” We love that it boosts moisture levels by up to 52%, leaving your complexion glowy and comfortably hydrated.
Yves Saint Laurent
Candy Glaze Lip Gloss Stick
“I love a moisturizing lip balm that doubles as a juicy tinted lip gloss,” Tietz gushes. “This clear one has a very light pink hue, and I also like Scenic Brown for a little ’90s color.” You truly get the best of both worlds with this jelly lip gloss stick, the glassy shine of a gloss, and the nourishing care of a balm. Plus, it’s non-sticky.
Telsha Anderson-Boone
Muri Lelu
Mauvaise Herbe Indica Oil
“A few months ago, I had a facial using Muri Lelu products, and my face was forever changed for the better,” shares Telsha Anderson-Boone, Entrepreneur and founder of T.A. New York. “Their Mauvaise Herbe Indica Oil feels great going on, and it’s full of hydration.” Designed for maximum healing, this super hydrating and easily absorbed light oil is high-performance and crafted with potent organic cannabis sativa extracts and 13 active botanicals.
“Eve Lom melts on my skin. I’ve been using it since 2018, and it might have been the best recommendation [regarding] beauty care that I’ve ever received,” says Telsha. We have to agree—the renowned cleanser is the ultimate skincare essential. Infused with a blend of botanical oils like eucalyptus and clove, this creamy balm effortlessly removes impurities while toning and hydrating the complexion.
Palmer’s
Palmer’s Cocoa Butter Formula Daily Skin Therapy Solid Lotion With Vitamin E, Body Moisturizer
“After I had my son, my stretch marks vanished after using this!” exclaims the new mom. “I’ve used coco butter since I was little, and it’s not something I ever plan to stop using, it’s a guaranteed classic.” This supportive formula melts upon contact, forming a protective barrier that seals in moisture. It’s for all skin types, including normal to eczema-prone skin. This moisturizer provides long-lasting nourishment, leaving the skin hydrated for up to 24 hours.
Babba Rivera
Ceremonia
The Postpartum Kit
“As a mom of two small children and currently pregnant with twins, I have come to realize that in order for self-care to happen consistently, it truly needs to be accessible from the comfort of our own homes and sprinkled into our everyday lives,” says the Founder and CEO of Ceremonia Babba Rivera. “For me, that’s the shower. I love upgrading my shower into a spa moment at home through intentional beauty rituals. Our postpartum kit includes all my favorites from Ceremonia for a weekly treatment wash to enhance hair quality and regrowth.”
Ceremonia
Guava Hair Repair Mask for Damaged, Color-Treated Hair
“After my weekly scalp ritual using the postpartum kit essentials, I like to end with a deep conditioning hair mask on my ends,” Rivera adds. “We recently launched the Mascarilla de Guava, and this product is a game changer. It’s a deep-conditioning hair mask made for color-treated and/or damaged hair and is clinically proven to reduce split ends by 60% after only two washes. It is also jam-packed with antioxidant-rich oils and extracts such as superfruit Guava and Agave, making it your hair’s rescue therapy. I use this on my hair once a week and the way it leaves my hair is simply incredible—the shine and smoothness is unmatched.”
Ceremonia
Guava Rescue Hair Heat Protectant Spray
“With summer approaching, I’m always focused on keeping my hair protected from the sun,” says Rivera. “I always carry our Rescue Spray with me, as well as a hat with me at all times as an added layer of protection for hair and skin from the sun. Lack of Color is my go-to brand for summer hats, I love their Wave Bucket Hat—the terry cloth material is so soft.”
Louise Chen

C’est La Cream
“Fragrance-free and the best kind of thick milky texture, this cream has saved my face during the last months of my pregnancy from any sort of hormonal breakout,” DJ Louise Chen tells me. “It has kept my skin hydrated and plump even throughout the winter when I usually get very sensitive and dry. I’m now totally addicted to it!”
Typology Paris
Tan-Complexion Serum
“I’m obsessed with this little oil,” Chen adds. “I apply it at the end of my face routine when I want to have a healthy glow, it just gives my skin a little extra shine and gold which has become very necessary now that my life has become perpetual sleepless nights feeding my son!”
Natessance
Natessance Organic Sweet Almond Oil 50ml
“My boyfriend would rub my pregnant belly with this oil every day—it was our ritual up until I gave birth to our son, a month ago,” shares Chen. “Now, I still use it to moisturize my body and massage my baby’s little feet and hands after the bath.”
