The perfect color, actually long lasting on me and it’s so blendable which is hard for a blush, and there’s a ton of product- so all of that makes it worth the price! Right now I’m loving Dolce Vita-888. I think it’s a really pretty mauve-y rose colo...

Dolce vita is that girl, it looks dark but it’s bendable and buildable. I love love the stick and setting it with the powder and it lasts all day.

They have some very lovely pinks I think 06 and 02 are the best for the pale cool girls. 09 is lowkey bronzery on my pale skin. The texture is impeccable with multiple butters used and so soft.

This goes on so smooth, can be used like a tinted primer but I wear it alone all the time. The lightest color actually works for my pale skin. It’s hard to find a BB cream that’s not too orange.

Shade 10 is actually light enough for my ghost skin. It’s nice hydrating and feels good on. I mix it with other stuff sometimes and wear it alone.

This is my favorite eyeliner on a budget for longer lasting. More people need to be wearing dark brown instead of black TRUST! This comes in lot of fun colors too. Set with a teeny bit of eyeshadow!
