Secrets of my perfect makeup looks
Welcome to my magic list! As a professional makeup artist, this list reveals the secrets of my artistic world. Here are all my favorite, magical products that I use to create my masterpiece. EVERYTHING ON THIS LIST IS PERFECT WITHOUT FAILURE.
Face prep
Preparing your face for makeup is key to achieve a perfect look and make your makeup last longer. When it's done right, everything after that will look perfect.
This Micellar Water is gentle on the skin and leaves the skin perfectly clean without over-drying.
Highly recommended
What makes this toner special is that it gently removes dead skin cells, cleans pores and leaves the skin smooth and radiant. This toner definitely has a special place on my beauty table
An excellent choice for achieving a glowing and healthy complexion, word-perfect
It is skin care and at the same time a perfect base for foundation, I love this so much…
Foundations
I'm always trying new foundations and this is my top picks
This product is a complexion booster, meaning it adds glow and enhancement to your skin. The official claims from elf is that this a skincare-makeup hybrid that provides glowing, dewy skin. Your complexion should look healthy and more radiant. This m...
Cult favourite that I've used in my make up routine for a while now. If I apply foundation without this base it seems very dull and 2D. This is also perfect for summer when it's too hot for a full face but you want a tanned glow.
You can never go wrong with this one! Truly, like a second skin in a bottle.
Stays on long, is pretty good with water, doesn't dry out my skin or get broken down by oils. This is a good one.
The best drugstore foundation
Concealers
Whether you’re looking to brighten up the eye area or hide acne, these products have got you covered
The best concealer I've tried. If I start listing all the good things, I can't stop
This product formula is actually really good, it so creamy and blends very good so it worth the price, but if ur an acne person like me, it gave me little bumps on my face which is fungal acne.
Long wearing and crease-proof. Conceals dark circles without looking mask-like
I think everyone already knows that this is the best base.
Provides really good coverage and stays on all day. Doesn't crack or flake, blends well.
Liquid blush/liquid bronzer and contour
The secret of perfect makeup is liquid products
Great bronzer for fair skin! I am in love with this bronzer! It is very hard to find a bronzer that does not turn orange. Really blends into the skin seamlessly. Feels great.
A unique lightweight cream-gel bronzer with a delicate velvet-matte finish that gives skin a sun-kissed glow.
Easy to blend, buildable, not too orange/warm like so many other contour shades, and has a pleasant scent.
The colors are flattering and blend nicely to your personal pigment preference. The texture is soft, almost like a mousse, but very pigmented
So pigmented and looks soooo glowy and flawless on the skin, and all the shades are so pretty
Powder products
Highlight, sculpt or bronze with face powder makeup.
There's a reason everyone says it's number one.
Beautiful highlight that looks very natural on skin, gives the effect of wet skin
Such a creamy feeling and it's so smooth on the skin. It's an easy formula to blend out.
It blurs pores perfectly. It is a must have in my makeup bag.
the most gorgeous texture
Eyes
Update your look with gorgeous eyeshadow palettes from top brands.
I use this palette the most. Perfect nude shades and shimmers shine unreal.
It's a MUST HAVE PALETTE.
Tarte eyeshadows blend beautifully, the colors are very natural, and are easy to use, especially if you're a beginner
I love this liner, it is a deep carbon black
Absolutely stunning! Love the shades in this palette for a natural look or even a night out look. Great pigment !
Lips
Rnhance your lips with color, shine, and add nourishment
Silky formula, smooth on the lips, non-sticky, glossy and kiss-proof. Drugstore favorite.
You can’t go wrong with any of CT’s lip cheats
It is so smooth and stays on all day
It looks like a lip gloss and acts like a treatment. Its formula is slick, non-sticky, and comes in seven sheer hues to impart a your-lips-but-better tint. (There's also a clear version you can try, if that's more your speed.)
Brushes/tools
The right choice of tools can greatly increase the quality of the look
All their brushes are very high quality. They have a lot of cheap bundle.
The powder puff has risen to the top of the makeup tool hotlist thanks to its blurring, setting and smoothing powers that provide the most seamless skin finish.
Get the most out of your setting powder with this one
Hygiene in the first place (mascara)
It can also be used for eyebrows
