Hello coverage! I usually use Fenty but I got this as a gift and I love it. A little goes a long way so I use less concealer. There's videos on YouTube where they cover tattoos with it and I totally get why now. Cover FX has a good shade range, my co...
Power Play Foundation
Eyeshadow that I wear everyday. Strapless is my favorite color I love how it makes my eyes pop! I feel like it looks more champagne gold than pictured but that's the color I want. It comes in so many other colors too and I like that you can wear it a...
Strapless Caviar Stick Eyeshadow - Laura Mercier | Ulta Beauty
One of the only products that prevent my eyeshadow from creasing. I have hooded eyes so my lids tend to get oily quickly. This is a staple
Eyeshadow Primer Potion
Do you have very straight lashes like me? Sometimes I don't want to curl my lashes with a curler before applying mascara and this actually does the job
Maybelline Lash Sensational Lengthening Mascara - 0.32 fl oz
It's the tennis green color for me. I also love the blue omg the range
Sally Hansen Miracle Gel Nail Polish - Desert Oasis Collection - 0.5 fl oz
The best makeup setting spray, I have yet to find a better one it's just a classic
All Nighter Waterproof Makeup Setting Spray
A great foundation staple by Fenty with plenty of shades to choose from. The best in my opinion for black women because not all brands get the color right
Pro Filt’r Soft Matte Longwear Liquid Foundation
Volume - yes. Curl - sometimes. I like to use this in combination with their Lash Sensational mascara. I have very straight lashes so without a curler these don't hold the curl for me after a few hours. But if you have naturally curly lashes or natur...
Maybelline Volum' Express The Colossal Mascara
I have bought so many of these and keep them probably longer than I should but they're so good! I love all the colors I have. I keep getting tempted to buy more knowing full well I have multiple containers of them at home
Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear Nail Color - 0.4 fl oz
You don't understand- all of the colors are so pretty!! And they LAST (2 weeks minimum for me). I love this and the Xtreme wear (in the list). Sally Hansen knows what she's doing
Sally Hansen Miracle Gel Nail Color - 0.5 fl oz
I LOVE the iridescent top coat!!! So pretty especially in the sun!! If you can't tell from the others on my list I'm a little obsessed with Sally Hansen nail products
Sally Hansen Miracle Gel Nail Polish - Special Effects Top Coats - 0.5 fl oz
One of my favorite hand creams because it soaks into your hand pretty quickly. I hate needing to moisturize and you need to use your hands immediately but you can't because you get lotion residue everywhere. This at least cuts down the dry time
Suave Skin Solutions Smoothing with Cocoa Butter and Shea Body Lotion 3oz
I don't buy any other lip liner but this, I love it! I hate sharpening liners so I'm glad it's retractable. I own the colors Dark Red and Cocoa. Dark Red actually comes out a burgundy/bordeaux color. The color payoff is great too and lasts me some ti...
Dark Red Retractable Long-Lasting Mechanical Lip Liner - NYX Professional Makeup | Ulta Beauty
My favorite eyeliner from NYX. If you want BLACK black liner this is the one. I prefer this felt tip over the brush version. It lasts all day. I tend to have a shaky hand and I do smear it sometimes by accident while doing my makeup and it could be d...
Black Epic Ink Vegan Waterproof Liquid Eyeliner - NYX Professional Makeup | Ulta Beauty
I prefer using this to take off my makeup instead of makeup wipes
Micellar Water - Garnier
A little goes a long way, not a bad price for this big bottle
ONYX Professional® 100% Pure Acetone Nail Polish Remover, 16 fl oz
YUMMY SNACKS, FOOD and DRINKS
I love spicy food and strawberries are one of my favorite fruits so this snack is perfect for me! Delicious! It tastes exactly as it sounds. It's not too sweet, it actually tastes healthy but not in a boring way. The cracker part tastes like bran (ag...
Strawberry & Jalapeño Crisps
Actual spicy chips that feel substantial. Usually I can down a whole bag of chips in one day but these actually make me pace myself. Even though it's airy it's filling! It's sweet salty and spicy. I got it from Costco but they are also available on A...
Soban Korean Sweet & Spicy Puffs Yangnyeom
I'm OBSESSED. I ate the whole bag by myself. The salty and sweet combo is perfect! You'd have to pry these away from me. I got these from Costco originally and if they're out of stock Amazon is your friend
Creative Snacks Strawberry Pretzels 26 Oz
There's something about these specific hashbrowns from Trader Joe's that's just so good. Almost nostalgic of McDonald's hashbrowns from years ago in their breakfast combo (before it went downhill lol) It's delicious! I prefer it over the other hashbr...
TRADER JOE'S Hashbrowns
Everything you knew about instant coffee is wrong. This right here is the best instant coffee I've EVER tasted. I make dalgona coffee and the creaminess is unreal. It whips so well with my hand blender and it's perfect every time. A little goes a lon...
Mount Hagen 7.05 oz Organic Fair Trade Freeze Dried Instant Coffee Bulk Resealable Doypack Bag
CURLY HAIR CARE
The only bonnet I've ever used that doesn't slip off
Evolve Products Satin Wide Edge Bonnet
Oof this makes wash day a LOT easier. It cuts down the detangling time for sure. If you know you know
Kinky-Curly Knot Today Natural Leave In Detangler - 8 fl oz
KITCHEN
These make cleanup soooo much easier. Yes they have holes, but the ones that don't prevent the air from flowing all around the food cooking evenly. A win is a win
Reynolds Kitchens Unbleached Parchment Air Fryer Liners - 50ct
