Prep
The items I use to prepare or prime my face before makeup application. I will be including my daily AM/PM skin care items because that is a crucial part of my entire makeup routine!
This is an awesome eyeshadow primer that helps shadows last longer, apply stronger pigments, and prevent creasing.
Eyeshadow Primers: Crease-free & Long Lasting - Urban Decay
Tons of different grip preferences with ELF primers. I like the power grip primer.
Face Primer Makeup - Vegan | e.l.f. Cosmetics
Great skincare collection that helps prevent acne and is non comodegenic.
Peach Slices Snail Rescue
Amazing refreshing and revitalizing skincare that allows for a wonderful makeup base.

Kollekt Skincare: nourished and refreshed skin, made simple.
Face
All of the face products I use to create a good base! From natural to full coverage!
Shape tape concealer is all of the hype for so many reasons. This has worked for me for around ten years even as my skin has began to mature. I love how this product blurs, does not crease, looks like your skin, and blends great with other products.
Shape Tape™ Full-Coverage Concealer - Tarte™ Cosmetics
This has been my tried and true foundation. I enjoy how it matches my skin tones throughout the year. Product I have used for about 10 years on and off.
Maybelline Fit Me Matte + Poreless Liquid
This is the powder I pair with on top of the Fit Me Foundation liquid. I enjoy how nicely this fits my skin tone and different shade ranges over the year. I like to use this powder as I stated paired with the foundation or alone. I like to use this a...
Maybelline Fit Me Powder
Great setting powder that really locks things in place for an affordable price! Amazing stay. I usually bake about 5-15 minutes for an all day wear.
Coty Airspun Loose Face Powder, Translucent
Eyes
All the eye products stashed away in my makeup bag and vanity!
I love this long wear volumizing lengthening mascara. Does not build on thickly but creates nice thicc luscious lashes!
Hella Thicc Volumizing Mascara | Fenty Beauty
I love the eyeshadow pallete options by Charlotte Tilbury. The shades are vibrantly pigmented but allow for easy blendability. The shimmer shades add a perfect dazzle to the palette and an overall look using all the shades. Definitely a good basic st...
Eyeshadow Palettes, Quads & Exclusive Kits | Charlotte Tilbury
Personally I love and prefer the kohl pencil liner as my go to main or dark eyeliner. The liquid liners are also incredible but I am not as skilled and feel like I am wasting an incredible product.
Liquid & Pencil Eyeliners | Clinique
Very nice volumizing mascara that has incredible hold and volume that stays. Great mascara for all types of eyelashes.
Better Than Sex Volumizing Mascara - Too Faced
Lips
Lip products are probably my favorite because of the ease of application and natural or artsy options. My favorite way to accessorize is with only one makeup item, a lip item!
This is a very nice oil that is a hydrating gloss with subtle color and shimmer. Wonderful alone, with lip liner only, or as a topper to other lipsticks/glosses! The doe foot applicator is very helpful and applies the lip oil with ease.
Gloss Bomb Oil Luminizing Lip Oil N' Gloss - Fenty Beauty
I love me some good nude shades. This is a buttery, smooth, long lasting shade that I find to fit with almost anything. This formula is very reliable and consistent. Have had for many years and will always be a great go to shade.
Nude Pink Lipstick: Pillow Talk - Matte Revolution | Charlotte Tilbury
Great beautiful shear or colorful lip balm gloss that has velvety or shimmer shades. This has an impressive lip plumping effect that I love.
Maracuja Juicy Lip Balm Gloss - Tarte™ Cosmetics
Accessories
I love to add these fun quirky cute pieces: face gems, temporary tattoos, glitter, and more!
Temporary tattoos come in so many styles. Can create so many makeup looks inspired by the tattoos or use the tattoos to amp up a look!
Temporary Tattoos
Glitter is so fun for everything. Especially for raves. Wonderful glitter makeup is a great time.
Eye Safe Glitter
Beautiful gems and accessory option that is super sparkly. Great for events or raves.
Face Jewels
Amazing option for jewelry instead of a physical piercing. Also great for those who have allergies to metals and can only wear for short periods of time.
