Perfect base and finalize setting
My reviews make up for perfect base, and some products for your base to start of that perfect look no matter what tour going for and products to set that look in for all day wear.
Elf is latterly at the top of my make up game. They have everything you could need in three different price points and I think that is super smart as a brand. These $1 brushes are really great and work well for shadows in my opinion.
