Must-Haves:
"One product I love is the Tata Harper Rejuvenating Serum, $98. It's wonderful because it moisturizes and tightens my skin simultaneously, which is a major time saver in the mornings. My other go-to serum is the Philosophy Time in a Bottle Eye Serum, $65. I literally will not go to sleep without putting on this product. I swear by it, as it brightens eyes and makes me look much more awake in the mornings. If I'm not dabbing on this eye treatment, I like to use the Bee Yummy Eye and Lip Cream, $24. I tend to get really dry under my eyes anyways, so this product is great for softening and rehydrating that delicate skin area.

Every girl needs a good moisturizer and my go-to is the Goop Revitalizing Day Moisturizer, $100. I have naturally very oily skin and this moisturizer doesn't grease me up more. Instead, it hydrates my skin without making me look shiny. I also don't neglect hydrating the rest of my body either. My go-to body moisturizer? Kai Body Butter, $52. This is the best product (in my opinion), for moisturizing your body. Plus, the smell is great! If I'm not using this, I love putting on the Heritage Store Lavender Aura Glow, $10.29, right before I get into the bathtub or sauna. The oil seeps into my skin for deep moisturizing benefits and leaves it feeling smooth and soft.

As for my nails, I love keeping it neutral. RMS Nail Polish, $15, is one of my favorites because I love their gorgeous nude nail polish and the product is totally natural. Plus, it doesn't smell bad like other natural nail polishes I've tried. Definitely a win for me."

Must-Haves:
"As far as my nightly routine goes, I always start by washing my face. I love La Mer The Cleansing Gel, $90, because it removes all my makeup and makes my skin feel squeaky-clean. I also love Nude Skincare Detox Gentle Brightening Fizzy Powder Wash, $38, for a cleanser as well. After I wash my face, I like to put on SkinCeuticals Triple Lipid Restore 2:4:2, $125, and SkinCeuticals Eye Cream, $72. I'm in love with this brand because all of their products are medical grade (and simply amazing, might I add). I notice such a difference when using them regularly.

I live in Hawaii, so I'm insanely diligent with my sunscreen. I love to use Colorscience Sunforgettable Brush-On Sunscreen SPF 30, $57, which I quickly run out of. It is my favorite because I hate having an oily face, which most sunscreens cause. Being a mineral powder, this doesn't leave me feeling slick. When I get back from the beach, I like to apply the Caudalie Moisturizing Sorbet Cream Sensitive Skin Savior, $39, to my face to restore my skin's moisture after being in the drying sun all day.

As for hair, I have about a million hair products and have tons of favorites, but I currently love Olaplex No. 3 Hair Perfector, $28. It's a treatment you put on wet hair in the shower before you shampoo and condition. I notice a huge difference in my hair health after I use this! I also love to use my Alterna Caviar Anti-Aging Replenishing Moisture Conditioner, $32, to keep my hair hydrated, and recently got Malin+Goetz Intensive Hair Conditioner, $26, for the same purpose.

For my hair styling products, I adore Kerastase. I especially love Kerastase Forme Fatale, $20.50, for extra texture and volume. Kenra Platinum Snail CC Creme, $25, is another staple too. It helps to keep my hair shiny and healthy."

The "Rich Kids of Beverly Hills" star, Morgan Stewart, knows a thing or two about on-camera beauty (I mean, she spent four seasons on camera), but looking her best doesn't rely solely on makeup.

Must-Haves:
"One of my must-have products is the Christie Kidd Fresh Pads. Christie Kidd is my dermatologist, and recommended these pads to ensure I completely remove my makeup and impurities from my face after washing it at night. The pads rid your face of any residue your cleanser may have missed. I can't live without them. I use them on my chest and back as well. They're excellent! After cleansing my face with these, I like to use the Cinq Mondes Precious Elixir - Soothing, $58, to add a little moisture. My facialist recommended it to me to use while I sleep at night, as it's hydrating and replenishes skin exceptionally well (especially after a night of drinking). I also dab on Sente Intensive Eye Therapy, $87, which Kidd recommended to me because a little goes a long way and it keeps the eyes hydrated all day.

Sunscreen is really important to me, and I've tried so many over the years. They all end up being greasy or need to be reapplied every few hours. Elta MD UV Clear Broad-Spectrum SPF 46, $32, is my dream come true. It contains zinc, so it stays put, and has the best sun protection. I always keep sample sizes in my bag!

I would put Bio-Oil, $19.99, on my bacon if I could. My husband always makes fun of me because I take 30 minutes to slather this ultra-hydrating oil all over my body before bed. It's great for burns, stretch marks and just overall moisture when you're feeling dry. I absolutely love it.

I also like to use Kai Body Lotion, $37, -- it's the best body lotion I've ever used. It has a heavenly scent and is very hydrating without being greasy, which as you've probably guessed, is very important to me.

Another must-have is the Enlite Super Scrub + Glow, $16.99. While it's meant to be a facial microdermabrasion, I love to use this scrub on my chest and arms in the shower after yoga. It's only sold at CVS and it's super-affordable. Speaking of affordable, the only nail polish and topcoat combo I use is the Essie Gel Couture Nail Polish, $11.50. The polishes have very rich, beautiful color, and the top coat adds amazing shine."

A Celebrity Makeup Artist's Secrets to Makeup Magic
Having grown up with a magician father and cosmetologist for a mother, it's no wonder celebrity makeup artist and Ipsy stylist, Lynette Cenée, knows all about makeup magic.

Must-Haves:
"I love starting with Heir Atelier Ultimate Make Up Prep because hydrated skin with a radiant glow is the best canvas for makeup. Not to mention, I never go without a primer because creating longevity in your makeup look is key. When I am ready to apply my foundation, I like to use what I think should be called, "the magic egg." The Beauty Blender is my go-to on the daily for a flawless finish and is a great "beauty magic trick" for applying face makeup effortlessly.

I love a good mascara that gives not just length but volume as well. Tarte Lights, Camera, Lashes 4-in-1 Mascara doesn't give you a spider leg or clumpy look, and there is absolutely no falling out under your eyes. Can I get an amen? Speaking of under eyes, the Nars Concealer has been my ride or die for many, many years now. This concealer has remained steadfast in my makeup regime due to its ability to fix any dark circles or blemishes and its vast color range for many skin tones.

A great highlighter that won't leave you looking like a glazed doughnut in a world of many options is like finding a needle in a haystack, or better yet, a loyal bestie in LA (nearly impossible). When Benefit came out with their Benefit Cosmetics Watts Up! Cream Highlighter, it was a match made in makeup heaven for me. I like to use my ring finger to apply on my cheekbones, tip of my nose and Cupid's bow for a natural glow that never fails to receive compliments."

A Vegan Beauty Queen's Secret to a Natural-Looking Glow
YouTube star Madelynn De La Rosa is known for makeup tutorials, DIY hacks and her vegan lifestyle. So what does a cruelty-conscious beauty junkie use to get a natural-looking glow every day?

Must-Haves:
"I'm a huge advocate of less is more, so I prefer to wear a tinted moisturizer most of the time. The Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics OCC Tint: Tinted Moisturizer is probably my favorite. It provides just the right amount of coverage to even out my skin tone, yet still lets my freckles show through. It has more of a dewy finish, too, which I prefer over a matte look.

To enhance my dewy complexion, I pair my tinted moisturizer with the Vintage by Jessica Liebeskind Illuminating Face Highlighter. I use this as a blush and highlighter, since it has a pink hue to it, and dust it over my cheeks, nose and Cupid's bow for a gorgeous, natural glow (plus, I can't get over how beautiful the product is). It's hard to find a good cruelty-free mascara that doesn't smudge throughout the day or have beeswax in it. However, Ciaté London Wonderwand Intensely Volumising Mascara has a vegan formula and is by far my favorite mascara as of late. It defines my lashes, gives them a bit of volume and lasts all day. It's also one of the easier mascaras to take off at the end of the day because the fibers gently flake off.

Another cruelty-free product I love (which also has a vegan formula) is the Anastasia Beverly Hills Dipbrow Pomade. It keeps my brows in place and fills them in for a natural look. It's also smudge-free and waterproof, so it lasts all day.

Another one of my makeup favorites? The Pür Cosmetics Velvet Matte Liquid Lipstick. This lipstick glides on smooth and has a matte finish that isn't over-drying on my lips, and the colors are rich and gorgeous too. I usually wear a terracotta rose shade and I always get compliments on it.

To frame my done-up face, I like to enhance my curls. Lately, I've been using Madam C.J. Walker Beauty Culture Jamaican Black Castor & Murumuru Oils Defining Butter Crème. First off, it smells delicious, but more importantly it keeps my curls defined and frizz-free all day. I put this in my hair while it's still damp and use a wide-tooth comb to help distribute the product. You can also use this on dry hair if you feel your curls are losing their shape or are getting frizzy throughout the day."
