NIVEA MEN Real Madrid Sensitive Post Shave Balm
'Rissa note: Holy grail alert! This was my first try at a liquid blotter and it blew my expectations outta the water! Use the cushion and dab a bit on where you're extra oily. This even takes the shine out of sunscreen!
Mini Pudding Oil-Control Cushion
Eyes
'Rissa note: This stuff literally helped me grow my eyelashes back in high school. INSANE, nourishing formula! Only downside is the color payout is a bit lacking.

Epiphany Glow Melt-On Eyeliner in Moon Mechanic | Kaleidos Makeup
'Rissa note: This is the black pencil I occasionally use in my water line, but if Kaleidos made a black eyeliner, honestly I'd be using that instead of this 😭
'Rissa note: HOLY GRAIL. The brush takes a bit to get used to, but it really does coat and fan out all of my thick lashes quite beautifully. Waterproof AF, you need an oil-based remover to get this off.
3D Curling Iron Mascara
'Rissa note: A solid mascara. Not as sweat-proof as I'd like, but I used this for years before the judydoll swap!

Rumour Eye Base
'Rissa note: This is a lot less harsh and 'sting-y' on my waterline compared to the KVD eyeliner, but it lacks color payoff big time.

'Rissa note: A super fun, purple shifting highlighter!

'Rissa note: This color stick is very versatile! I mainly use it for blush.
Monochromatic Multi-Stick
'Rissa note: Bought this on a whim for trying something different, the color payoff is INSANE.
Mini Milky Jar Liquid Blush
'Rissa note: I almost never use powder (if it's a good enough formula, the product will set on its own) but for things that do need setting, I use this powder very lightly with a Kabuki brush or powder puff!
Translucent Mini Bake & Set Setting Powder - Morphe | Ulta Beauty
Lips
'Rissa note: My go-to for lightweight moisturizer for my lips! (Does NOT taste as good as it smells)
Brazilian Kiss Cupuaçu Lip Butter
'Rissa note: My go-to for deep, nourishing moisturized lips! (Doesn't taste as revolting as the Sol chapstick)
