Some items that help make your daily beauty routine nearly effortless. Most of these have been purchased multiple times.
This stuff erases any pores and makes my skin look like I have a blurring filter on in real life. At the fraction of other products!
Makeup Revolution Pore Blur Primer
If you want a 10 minute makeup routine - grab a couple of these for your everyday rotation. So easy to apply, and they stay all day.
Super Shock Shadow
I'm not saying it's a dupe for a $50+ premium brand powder... but... it's pretty close. If you want the H-glass look without the pricetag.
Halo Glow Loose Setting Powder
Roll on while I moisturize. Yum!
Tropical Pineapple Moisturizing Lip Balm
It's medium coverage and does not feel like you're wearing anything. Love it! UPDATE 10/2025: I tried another foundation for 6 mo. It was okay. I got another sample of this to see if it was as good as I remembered… It is. I will be buying another bottle in the next month.
NARS Foundation Makeup: Liquid, Powder, Matte
These make your eyes just POP. I can't explain science. (Just saw a makeup artist had it in his kit - and I tried the hack - and it WORKS!)
LUMIFY® Redness Reliever Eye Drops
Boom! I was a Roller Lash girl - but this stuff is va va voom! I always get the mini tubes to replace quicker for freshness and eye sanitation.
Fan Fest Fanning Volumizing Mascara
Buildable - good wash of color on cheeks. UPDATE: 10/2025: I am nearly hitting pan, and I WILL buy more Colourpop blush.
Blush & Bronzer
My skin is so soft! This sinks right in without being greasy or overwhelming. Three pumps covers my whole face.
Air Angel Gel Cream
A little goes a long way. And this stuff is really creaseless in the undereye area of a 35+ year old.
Concealer
Sometimes the original is the best. When I know I have a long day ahead, I spray this on - and I'm confident my face will still look great at the end of the day!
All Nighter Waterproof Makeup Setting Spray
I had platinum blonde hair that was fried. K18 made it soft again! Fangirl for life!
There are mornings that I need to go to work and look like I got a full night sleep, when that just didn’t happen. This stuff (I keep it in the fridge) helps me get rid of the bags under the eyes! My concealer looks great - and no one knows I’m tired...
The INKEY List USA Caffeine Eye Cream
This is getting rid of my dark melasma spots - and it's not $100+ or a prescription! Plus, it doesn't burn! LOVE IT!
The Alpha-Arbutin 2 Discoloration Care Serum - COSRX | Ulta Beauty
I don't know what magic this serum has in it, but since I started using it my break outs have been less, and I have that pretty “glass skin” effect.
I was having trouble with my sensitive skin reacting to almost everything. I tried this moisturizer as a “hail mary” - and it came through. It is not heavy. It leaves my skin nice and bouncy. Perfect for warm weather seasons.
