Three years ago I was making six figures. Then I wasn’t. In recovery and rebuilding, I started over in the skincare aisles at Walmart, CVS and Walgreens.
I spent three years buying and trying products so you don’t have to stand in aisle nine wondering what the hell actually belongs on your face.
The $2 Glow Up Guide brings together budget first skincare picks and a separate page of my optional splurges, a three-product starter kit for about $50, morning and evening routines, and my experience with what earned a place on my shelf. You’ll also find two devices, my personal supplement shelf and a few off-grid products to explore.
Fine lines. Dryness. Uneven tone. A simpler way to choose what fits your skin and budget—with routines for your 30s, 40s and 50+, all starting with the same basics.
Some favorites cost more. The point is spending on something that works for you instead of filling a drawer with disappointments. Good information shouldn’t cost more than the thing it’s telling you to buy.
A LITTLE THANK-YOU, ON ME.
Your purchase includes the first two chapters of I Hate Myself. I Feel Crazy. A Comeback Story. Your thank-you email includes the book preview alongside your guide download.
Three years of testing. Thirty-seven pages. Two dollars.
$2 buys the digital guide. Products are purchased separately. PDF download: approximately 9.5 MB. Written by William James Cornhoff with AI assistance in editing and illustrations.
