Supergoop Unseen Sunscreen
This is that sneaky little sunscreen you forget you’re even wearing. Clear as your conscience, silky like a good primer, and never greasy or chalky. It glides on like a dream, blurs your pores a bit, plays real nice under m...
Perfect for underneath your foundation
Unseen Sunscreen SPF 50
Foundation
Haus Labs Foundation
This one right here understands my skin on a spiritual level. Hydrating but not greasy, smoothing without settling, and flexible enough to roll with my ever-changing menopausal skin moods. Some days dry, some days textured, some ...
I would actually go into Sephora and get matched before you try to purchase online. There are at least 100 shade options and it can be a little bit intimidating. My shade is 200.
Triclone Skin Tech Medium Coverage Foundation with Fermented Arnica
Perfect for brightening the under eye. A little bit goes a long way.
Lavender Shape Tape Corrector - Tarte

Adding Color to My Face
Listen, at this age I enjoy color. A little flush, a little glow, a little “yes ma’am, I’m alive.” These products are super pigmented, so a tiny dab will do the most. I tap it on lightly, build where I want, and let my face do...
(Secret… I use this for eyeshadow as well)
Sun Bunny Natural Bronzer
Watermelon Rain is my shade (a little goes a long way)
Cloud Crush Blurring Blush
The perfect shade to go with my favorite lip color.
Duck Plump Plumping Lip Liner | NYX Professional Makeup
There are two colors that I wear religiously. Coquettish and Tomato Girl. Two beautiful reds that are complementary to many skin tones and not so in your face.
Super Stay Teddy Tint Blurred Matte Lip Tint
My favorite makeup product, ever! This waterproof mascara does not flake, irritate your eye, smudge, it curls the lashes and gives the illusion of the foxy, doe eye. I always keep a spare, in the box, ready to go, just in case I run out.
Fan Fest fanning & volumizing mascara
Finishing Spritz
This is the final seal on the deal. A few spritzes of this wonder-working setting spray and your makeup is LOCKED IN. Nothing’s sliding, melting, running, or migrating south during the day. It takes everything you’ve put on your face and makes it beh...
Will last ALL day. Does not flake. Perfect for taming those unruly brows
The Brow Glue Crazy Lift Brow Lamination Gel
This stuff is very forgivable. Meaning that if you make a mistake, it’s cleaned up easily. If you have a great brow pencil that makes the perfect hair strokes, this is the product to use. The color I’m using right now is 4.5.
Goof Proof Brow Powder
It’s like superglue for your makeup! No joke…. Literally…. Your makeup isn’t coming off…
