I used this as a primer last winter and it worked beautifully. I always forget to repurchase this but it is truly one for dry skin and I feel best used in the winter.

This is hands down my FAVORITE concealer!!! This concealer will make your imperfections nonexistent. It is smooth and creamy but not too thick so you don't have to rush to blend  it.

I have recently become a glowy/dewy makeup kind of girl and this is the perfect product to try. It can also be used as a lightweight foundation. I use it underneath my foundation when I am going for a more full coverage look and want that dewy finish...

When I want a super fresh looking natural beat and I do not have a ton of time, I use this one. Fenty Beauty will be added to my beauty regimen overall HEAVILY this year. The blur stick looks like your skin but better.

This is a controversial one because most women choose the regular FitMe foundation but I LOVEEEE this one! It pairs so well with my concealers. A great bang for your buck and I love saving a coin, honey.

One Size snapped with these setting powders. I have the travel size in translucent and pink. Save yourself a few coins and opt for the travel size because there is more than enough product.

This setting powder is hands down the best on the market. It is smooth and makes the BIGGEST difference in the setting of the concealer. Just get it!! I have the shade “Blondie”.
