Skin Prep!
This spray is actually magical. It minimizes the appearance of any bumps, and dries out any painful juicy pimples! I do a light mist every day, whether or not I am wearing makeup, and I swear it makes the biggest difference!

The most hydrating primer! I love the way that my makeup sits when I use this primer!!

I use this cream bronzer EVERY DAY! It is so buildable that I can use it for a natural look or a full glam. AND it is super clean, so it never causes breakouts!
Dew Bronze Soft-Focus Sculpting Liquid Bronzer - Saie
My favorite powder bronzer! It is hard to get your hands on (literally always sold out) so snag it if you see it! It's talc-free so super great for sensitive skin. I use shade “Light Medium”!

Lips!
I love benetint! It is the easiest natural lip product. I get it in dark cherrty, and I do not think it is as dark as the test photos make it seem. Give it a try!
Benetint Rose Lip & Cheek Tint 10ml - Benefit Cosmetics
Obsessed with this lip liner! Its very blendable and not too drying!
Mini Iconic Lip Cheat Lip Liner Trio - Charlotte Tilbury
Summer Fridays' lip balm is so versatile! I use it all the time as just a lip balm, but it also makes such a great gloss topper for a lip combo. Not to mention it's delicious!!
