My daily makeup picks — affordable, good quality, and products I truly love. Here are my favorites.
I’ve used Dermtlgy’s Universal Tinted Moisturizer for several years. It’s my go-to for SPF with the bonus of providing a light coverage to even out your skin tone. I wear this every day and rarely wear foundation anymore!
Universal Tinted Moisturizer SPF 46
I was devastated when Tatcha stopped making The Pearl during COVID, but then I found this gem and it’s a fantastic (insanely affordable) replacement!
Under Eye Brightener
I mix the Catrice Eye Brightener with this Glossier Concealer to create a bright, smooth undereye look.
Stretch Balm Concealer
Elf Wow Brow Gel is one of two brow gels I reach for. It goes on well, it stays put all day and it is a near perfect match to my very dark brown hair!
Wow Brow Gel
I absolutely love this brow mascara. It goes on smooth, it stays put all day, and really helps define brows without being clumpy or messy.
NYX Professional Makeup Tinted Brow Mascara, Black
This has been my long-time mascara and I cannot say enough good things about it! It really does have long-lasting wear and doesn’t flake off. I like to apply the Honest mascara first and then finish off with this to “lock” it in!
Liquid Lash™ Extensions Tubing Mascara
I love this mascara, I've been using Maybelline products since the first make-up and everyone in the house uses their products, mom and sister.
Maybelline Lash Sensational Body Mascara, Blackest Black, 0.24 fl oz - Walmart.com
Great drugstore replacement, for a small budget and very good quality!
Maybelline Fit Me Matte Poreless Pressed Face Powder Makeup, Classic Ivory, 0.29 oz - Walmart.com
powder that I love, it covers very well, does not make the skin greasy, the skin can breathe and gives a very natural look.
