Whether you’re covering hyper pigmentation, or brightening the under eye. These are my go to concealers.

Primer

Because why are you putting a full face of Makeup on with no primer?

It isn’t called grippy for no reason. Sometimes I even wear this as a serum with no makeup because it makes my skin look that good. It really grabs the makeup and helps my makeup last all day.

Blush & Bronzer

Blushes & Bronzers, because I usually mix them anyway. Lol.

I use this as a blush, it has the perfect red tint. put on melanin skin, I wouldn’t necessarily call this a bronzer.

This reminds me of the NYX buttermilk bronzer, but instead of it being red toned, it can give bronze. I still like to use them. NARS will always have my heart, each product is worth every penny that I’ve used.

You really get a bang for your buck with this one! It has a cream, a bong, and a powder all in one, & it is SUPER Pigmented!! If you love a wine-ish blush just add this to your cart.
