A Fashionista's Must-Have Beauty Products If you're into fashion and beauty, and regularly peruse Instagram for inspo, it's likely you've come across Rachel Parcell's (aka Pink Peonies) gorgeous feed. Being a well-known blogger, mommy and recently launching her own clothing line, Parcell knows a thing or two about what it takes to look flawless while she hustles. Despite the frequent outfit changes, Parcell disclosed a few beauty product staples she relies on daily to look her best.

Must-Haves:
"A couple years ago, I partnered with SK-II and fell in love with their Facial Treatment Essence, $99. This stuff is so amazing and worth every penny! I sprinkle a little bit onto my hands and press it evenly all over my face and neck.
Growing up, my sisters and I would use Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser, $9.59, to clean our faces every night. It's so simple and affordable (you can find it at your local grocery store), is a super effective way to clean the skin. It is still my go-to cleanser to this day.
After my cleanser, comes the primer. My latest find (and favorite primer as of late) is the Marc Jacobs Under(Cover) Perfecting Coconut Face Primer, $44. It helps my makeup stay smooth and in place all day long, and it smells amazing.
If you're a long-time follower of my blog, then you know I'm a lipstick fanatic and always like to match my lip shade to whatever outfit I'm wearing. Lately, I've been so obsessed with all things blush. So when I discovered Charlotte Tilbury Hot Lips Lipstick, $34, in Kim K.W. and the Charlotte Tilbury Lip Cheat Lip Liner, $22, in Iconic Nude a couple months ago, I fell in love. They're the prettiest, softest nude colors that can be worn year round, and I've been wearing them a ton lately.
Something I've always wanted is long, healthy hair. Now that mine is grown out, I want to keep it growing and healthy. I've used a variety of products over the years, but I especially love the Elixir Ultime Original Hair Oil, $58. It is one of my all-time favorites that I use every time I style my hair, because it keeps my hair shiny and frizz-free, while also protecting it from the heat of my blow dryer and hair tools. Another Kerastase must-have is the Elixir Ultime Bi-Phase Spray Oil, $58. I apply it once, and I'm done styling my hair. It's the perfect final touch to nourish and protect my hair.
It may sound weird, but I swear by the nipple cream Lansinoh HPA Lanolin, $5.99, and literally cannot live without it. I put it on my lips after I wash my face at night and every day before I put on lipstick. It acts as the perfect gloss and is seriously the best hydrator. It's my favorite beauty secret, for sure!
Whenever I'm headed to the pool or I'm on a summer vacation with my family, I apply La Mer Soleil de La Mer - The Reparative Face Sun Lotion Broad Spectrum SPF 30 $135, to my face and neck. It acts as a sun protector while keeping my skin hydrated and rejuvenated. I also love that it has anti-aging benefits to help repair and prevent wrinkles."
