What I Actually Bought #024
Uniqlo x Anya Hindmarch, current shampoo rotation, and the it-girl surf brand sunscreen
We’re on our final stretch to 2024! For Selleb Sisters, that means wrapping up the last details of the year: Chloe is in NYC, connecting with the Selleb community for one last IRL event of 2023, while Claire is in D.C., tying loose ends for her end-of-year finals. Amidst all this frenzy, we’re also making final decisions on our Xmas gifts, slowly but surely closing those countless browser tabs on our laptops…
Ok, you know the drill - OUR finds, YOUR finds, and the BEST DEALS — honest reviews backed by receipts. Here we go…
What I Actually Bought
Uniqlo x Anya Hindmarch: Not your average winter scarf and gloves combo. A perfect blend of subtle but “can’t-miss” embellishment choices, which is Anya Hindmarch’s signature touch. Also made of HEATTECH material — extra points for that.
Source Unknown Tova Off Shoulder Knit: 50% off Black Friday sale moment! Shoutout to our friend Delaney for this intel. Clean cut and streamlined design. Sexy but subtle.
Ouai Medium Shampoo + Conditioner Set: Claire’s new hair care setup, inspired by her friend, Heba, who recently joined the Selleb community.
Medicube Soyxidil Shampoo: Chloe’s current shampoo that she’s been using for the past few weeks. It’s supposed to protect the hair roots and also relieve dry scalps. So far, so good. Will report back.
Alo Yoga Haul: Alo sells work pants now — comfort at its finest. The tank top fit like a glove, and the headband colors were irresistible. Returned 2 items from this order though: the high-waisted pants (didn’t like the material - too thick) and the other ribbed tank top (too tight).
What YOU Actually Bought
@raewitte (NYC-based writer and owner of @finds.ny) / Vertra Beach Break Daily Facial Moisturizer SPF 30: “I've abandoned my fancy skincare sunblock for this surf brand. The product feels great on my skin, my makeup sits better on it and I'm convinced the packaging makes it so I get every single drop.”

@eggcanvas (NYC-based Creative Director, founder of superegg, and former VP of Design at Barneys) The Row Margaux 12 Tote: “I'm a self-proclaimed queen of mini bags, but lately, I've been craving the spacious goodness—especially for lugging around my camera in the upcoming winter chill. Enter The Row Margaux: the epitome of understated chic and classic. I'm obsessed with this elephant gray shade; it's the missing puzzle piece to my year-round neutral wardrobe.”
(newsletter queen) / Ghia Sumac & Chili spritz: “I’ve become partial to the Cali sober lifestyle, and I love a tasty mocktail. When I do drink alcohol, I prefer tart and savory cocktails like a dirty martini or spicy margarita, and it’s hard to replicate NA versions of these at home. I’ve had Ghia’s ginger lime spritz and am very excited to try their Sumac & Chili version to satiate my spicy margarita desires.”
@jennifermika_ (TikTokker, dancer, actor) / Saltburn movie ticket: “The acting and visuals were amazing. It was creepy cool to think, wow, this dark thought made it out of someone’s brain and onto a screen. That doesn’t happen often!“
@laurajung (creator, writer (
), model) / Janessa Leoné: Black Friday is a strategic time to score on more expensive basics and accessories for less. Janessa Leoné is an LA-based designer who is known for her darling straw hats (Felix Bucket).
