I use Cream & Sugar over other pallets all the time. Perfect for an easy smokey eye and super affordable.

Great talc-free blush option at the drugstore. Blends well and won't break you out

Finally! A talc-free powder at the drugstore. Performs well, cuts down the shine while still looking natural. I'll use it even on no makeup days over my sunscreen on trouble areas for a little coverage

I have a love hate relationship with these. They look great, are ready to use, and last all night even under lipgloss. However they dry out pretty quickly. Do I still keep buying them though? Yes, yes I do
Outlast Lipstain | COVERGIRL®

I have these in a bunch of colors. This is my the BEST transfer-proof lip product I've tried. Last all night and doesn't dry out your lips.

Love the tinted version of it. A subtle amount of color (perfect for blondes in taupe) gives a natural look with a strong hold.

Love these glosses. They aren't stick but are hydrating and add shine to your lips so they look oh so juicy

Or if a stain is more your style try this ELF glossy stain. You get the best of both world with lasting colour and a glossy shine!

Love this dewy settings spray. It melts everything together to look glowy and natural and helps your makeup look great all day!

Best full-coverage concealer out there. It does get cakey because it's got lots of hydrating ingredients and blends out nicely
e.l.f. Hydrating Camo Concealer, Fair Beige

I'm more of a tinted sunscreen kinda girl but if you want a nice light skin tint that won't break you out this the one to choose. Looks great for light coverage somewhat buildable and melts into the skin.
L’Oréal True Match Nude Tinted Serum, Light

The key to keeping under eyes from getting cakey? It's a color corrector! Try this peach one under your eyes to help correct dark blue/purple under-eyes
e.l.f. Camo Color Corrector, Peach

Best lightweight concealer. Melts into skin, lots of shades, and is hydrating. Best of all it has a hygienic pump dispenser which is great for acne prone girlies like me.
NYX Concealer Serum, 03 Vanilla, 9.6ml

I use the fair/light shade which is great if you're a pale girly. I like this very blendable and buildable which is great for beginners and is great if you like a more natural makeup look
Halo Glow Liquid Contour Wand | e.l.f. Cosmetics

I like this bronzer for a more chiseled/snatched look. More pigment than the contour wand but easier to be more precise and better for a bolder look.

I love these they are so hydrating and blend seamlessly into the skin. Easiest blush I've ever used perfect for a no-makeup day to add a little color or layers well for a glam look. I use shade Fleur
On-the-Glow Blush - Pixi Beauty

A heavier blush but a great shade range I like their Turks and Caicos and their bora bora shades

Love this line from indeed labs. Great moisturizer that blurs pores but is still comfortable on oily skin!

I use this even more than the primer. Sets your makeup all day and gives a blurred natural look to the skin
nanoset™ – Indeed laboratories

I love to mix this in with a skin tint or apply as a contour and to the perimeter of the face to bring a healthy bronzy glow even on no-makeup days. It's good for your skin and helps give dimension to the face
