My Top 10: Corey Rae Shares Her Must-Have Beauty and Fashion Picks

This hair tool has been a recent savior of mine! Not only has it cut my blow-dry time in half, but my hair is softer, I don’t have any breakage, and it’s sooooo easy to use! It’s perfect for voluminous straight hair or smooth beach waves. Very thankful for this product!

This hair oil is my go-to! I typically use it after I blow out my hair to lock in a smooth finish and fight frizz. Even on days when I don’t do my hair, I apply this oil to wet hair to ensure a shiny, natural, air-dried beachy wave look. It smells AMAZING, and I believe this product is vegan and cruelty-free, as well as paraben- and phthalate-free!

I’m obsessed with the smell of this product; I could smell it all day long! This is something I actually look forward to using on my skin. It’s lightweight, so I use it day and night on top of serums to lock in and amplify moisture. It’s natural, vegan, and cruelty-free!

[This] is my absolute favorite lip balm. It’s clean, vegan, cruelty-free, and smells (and tastes) incredible! Soft, plump, pouty lips are an absolute must for me, and this keeps my lips soft for hours. I always have this on me!

This is a brand new favorite of mine. It leaves a gorgeous soft shine on your lips. Not only is Lady Gaga an advocate for the LGBTQ+ community, but her entire line is vegan and cruelty-free, which is obviously very important to me!

The #1 question I’m always asked is what mascara I use. Recently, I’ve been using a combination of two incredible vegan and cruelty-free companies. I use one layer of Pixi Large Lash Mascara and one layer of Tarte Lash Paint Mascara.

Pixi Large Lash Mascara is cruelty-free, vegan, and paraben- and fragrance-free! It has vitamin E to nourish the lashes, panthenol to strengthen, and bamboo extract to fortify, and helps retain moisture in the lashes. It’s perfect for separating, lengthening, and plumping my lashes without the clumps.

Tarte Lash Paint Mascara is vegan, cruelty-free, safe for contact lens wearers (which I am), and is perfect for making sure every lash is coated and separated. It’s made with natural wax that lengthens the lashes and ensures smooth application. It’s also made without parabens, mineral oils, phthalates, triclosan, gluten, and sodium lauryl sulfate!

It’s my signature scent! I’ve been wearing this for the past five years, and I’m as in love with it as I was the first time I smelled it. I usually layer it on top of the lotion to heighten the scent and make it last all day long.

[These have] become my favorite pair of jeans I’ve ever owned. They are so comfortable and extremely flattering. Sustainability within the fashion industry is something I pay close attention to, and I love that. These are free of harmful chemicals, [and] the wash process utilizes 90 percent less water and reduces waste output to almost zero. Overall, J BRAND’s eco-friendly jeans minimize the negative impact on both the planet and the artisans who make our clothes.

I never go anywhere without this water bottle: errands, walks in the park, and even music festivals! I drink a minimum of 2L of water a day, and it helps me keep track of how much I’m drinking and keeps it at the perfect temperature.
