Join me as I learn to do makeup. These products have been lifesavers for me as I go from talentless to talented. Great products for all ages but especially early 30s, when things are just starting to look and feel a bit different on your skin

The easiest blush and it fits in your tiniest purse so you can reapply later
the pocket blushes | rhode skin
Super easy to use and buildable. I'm definitely guilty of trying a bronzer I wasn't ready for and turning out muddy
SoftSculpt® Bronzer - makeup by mario
Great for oily skin
Eaze Drop Blurring Skin Tint — 20 | Fenty Beauty
So delicate and fun to use
03, Gucci Glow Highlighter powder in 03 Warm Gold
The only highlighter I've ever found that actually delivers the "lit from within" glow were all going for
So hydrating, recommend for everyone, especially if you have mature skin. The coverage is full and buildable. On days where I really don’t look my best, I do two layers
Shape Tape™ Creamy Concealer | Tarte™ Cosmetics
Super gentle and the texture is divine. I’m sensitive to certain textures and the heaviness of most skin products, and this is fabulous for me
For those with an oily t-zone, simply pat on before makeup to mattify without drying. Can be used to set makeup when you’re finished, as well!
Face Defender - Mally Beauty
This stuff is just magical. Gives you a clear glow from within instead of sitting on top of your skin. Look luminous instead of made up. Perfect for those who prefer a more natural look
Elevated Glow Highlighter | Lisa Eldridge Makeup
Eyes
If I'm being so fr, eyeshadow looks terrible on me. Except for this one. I have two shades and wear the pink constantly. So easy even I can do it
Eyes To Mesmerise - Champagne Cream Eyeshadow
Does 👏 not 👏 move
1.5MM™ Mechanical Gel Eye Liner - Hourglass Cosmetics
Tubing mascara that literally does not move. Slight learning curve because it dries fast but I’ve been married to it for years
Liquid Lash Extensions Tubing Mascara for Sensitive Eyes
Very easy to use for a less dramatic look. Doesn’t move. So pretty
MakeWaves® Mascara - Tower 28 Beauty
Never skip this step
Eyelash Curler | SHISEIDO
Perfect for clean, polished brows
Pro Brow Definer 1mm-Tip Brow Pencil - MAC Cosmetics
Lips
Glides right on and actually shows up.
Lip Liner: Waterproof, Matte, Creamy Lip Pencils MAKE UP ...
Very creamy formula that makes it feel more like a balm than a lipstick. Lipstick is daunting for newbies and this is a great intro (and still one of the only I use)
Speak for Yourself - Sarah Creal Beauty
It simply always looks good. On everyone. I have 5? Colors at this point and I use it every single day. Takes every look from good to great
DIOR Addict Lip Glow Oil Color-Awakening Gloss | Dior US
Gives me the perfect little pout. Excellent base for lip products
Forget the Filler Overnight Lip-Plumping Mask - Lawless Beauty
