I believe in minimal makeup.. This is the exact lineup I’d rebuild if I had to start my beauty stash from zero.
It’s the perfect size for everyday use—whether I’m running around the city for back-to-back events or hopping on a flight for a weekend getaway. And yes, it’s as cute as it is functional.
The Vanity Case
They say the best makeup starts with great skincare, and Saie’s Glowy Super Gel proves the point. It’s a cult favorite for a reason: The lightweight, non-comedogenic formula gives that effortless, lit-from-within glow without glitter or shimmer.
It’...

I tried Sweed Beauty for the first time earlier this year and have been hooked on their mascara ever since. It’s a clean, award-winning formula that lengthens, lifts, and separates the lashes so they look full and natural—never clumpy or overdone.

I’m extremely particular about brow products. I have thin, sparse brows, so anything too heavy, crunchy, or drying is a hard no. Kosas’s Brow Treatment Gel has been the only one I’ve trusted for years, and I have zero plans to switch.
It actually be...
Air Brow Clear + Clean Lifting Treatment Eyebrow Gel with Lamination Effect
Naturally, I stick to Kosas for brow pencils too. The BrowPop nano pencil creates natural, hair-like strokes that fill in the patchy areas without ever looking drawn on. The micro-triangle tip makes it almost foolproof—use the thicker edge to add ful...

Out of all the cream-based blushes I’ve tried, Rhode’s Pocket Blush is by far the creamiest and easiest to blend. I wear the shade Sleepy Girl, a warm year-round tone that gives the perfect “soft flush” without veering too pink or too peach.
The sat...
I try to stick to a tinted moisturizer or sunscreen for daytime—it’s easier on my skin and easier to work with. Tower28’s SunnyDays Tinted SPF has been my go-to for years, and I restock it religiously every time I run out.
It hydrates my skin, quick...

This is the product I don’t leave home without. At this point, I need one in my makeup bag and one in my purse because I truly don’t go anywhere without it. It’s the perfect hybrid of lipstick and lip balm—giving just enough color while actually soft...
Lip
I wear lip liner nearly every day—even on lighter makeup days—and this one has become my holy grail. It’s unbelievably easy to use and comes with a silicone smudger on the opposite end that softens and perfects the edges (arguably the most underrated...

I’ve struggled with dark under-eyes for as long as I can remember. For years, I layered on concealer hoping it would disguise the shadows, but nothing ever fully neutralized them—until Charlotte Tilbury’s Magic Vanish entered the chat.
This isn’t a ...
Charlotte Tilbury Magic Vanish Color Corrector
I’ve been using pressed powder since my Covergirl days, but this one just hits different. Unlike traditional pressed powders, Saie’s is baked—which means the formula starts as a cream and is slowly heated to create a lighter, silkier texture. The res...
