I like Merit because they prioritize clean ingredients. I like this product specifically because I have freckles and just need concealer on my under eye and other trouble spots and this stick blends perfectly while still showing off my freckles. I’m ...

I’m not a big foundation wearer, but sometimes I need a little more coverage than my concealer stick, so this is a great go-to.

On my days where I don’t want to mess with too much make-up, but don’t want to scare people. I do this over my tinted moisturizer with a little bit of mascara. I live in FL, so I always have a little color to my face, but I’m freckly and use the 903 ...

Love the dewy look with this setting spray. My skin most days is a combination of oily/dry, but there are those days where I’m just dry 😒 I feel like this spray is a nice finishing touch for those days and adds extra hydration to my skin.

A couple of Christmases ago, my husband got me the Charlotte Tilbury advent calendar and it came with a mini setting spray and it got me hooked on it.

This is a great, light weight coverage that also hydrates and has SPF built in. I got in Light since we are getting in to the fall months and my summer tan is fading.

Another favorite mascara of mine. Clinique reminds me of my teenage years and I always find myself going back to them. ❤️
High Impact™ Mascara

I have the smallest little gaps in both of my eyebrows-right in the front, ( is this an age thing??) anyway, I just fill in with a couple of little swooshes with this pen and it fixes the problem. I have the darkest eyebrows so I use the color black

I use this after the NYX brow tint pen, just to brush out and blend. The deep brown color is as close to black I can get and works perfectly

I have the Walk Of No Shame shade. The applicator being in the shape of a heart just makes it more fun.
Lip Glosses - Lip Lustre & Collagen Lip Bath
 
Amy Johnson profile picture
This is a lipgloss, but it feels more like a lipstick, good pigment. I have the color Major Glazer, which I think is the color in the second photo, if not, it’s pretty similar
Patent Paint Lip Lacquer
 
Amy Johnson profile picture
It doesn’t appear they have my shade of Daredevil, but I would say the shade Blackberry is pretty close. Another good gloss, nice shine, doesn’t feel sticky on your lips

Good pigment with this blush. I put a dab or two over my cream blush.

Love this cream blush, blends nicely. I found as I’ve gotten older, my skin is a bit more dry and cream blushes and bronzers are my friends.

Not just blush! I put on my cheeks, lips and dab on my eyelids. I use the color Cheeky
Flush Balm Cream Blush
 
Amy Johnson profile picture
Another good cream blush, I use Nearly Rose, it’s a nice pinky color, I also dab on my lips. It’s very pigmented, so a little goes a long way. It comes in the cutest little compact that has a mirror!
Stay Vulnerable Melting Cream Blush
 
Amy Johnson profile picture
This is a cream blush, comes in a cute, compact container, for me it works well as a blush and a lipstick-I love a multi-purpose make-up. It has cleaner ingredients. I have the color, tan line
