Foundation
Another one u literally cannot go wrong with! NARS is super full coverage and super long-wearing and this formula still looks extremely skin like on the skin! Definitely on the pricey side, but worth the investment! ✨
Natural Radiant Longwear Foundation
All my makeup girlies know this is an OG! This is my number one recommendation if u have pores or texture on the skin. Take a puff or a really dense bush and push this into the skin! Pair with pore filling primer for more of a blurring effect!
Studio Fix Tech Cream-To-Powder Foundation
Now yall know FENTY gonna KILL IT everytime! This is a tinted moisturizer but the coverage is definitely there, all while still being super skin-like! And it’s has SPF already in it so yay for killing two birds with one stone!!! 👏🏼👏🏼
This is a newer foundation that I just picked up. I wore it on my birthday and it’s is super pretty with a nice dewy finish! So far I’m loving this enough to recommend! Also on the pricey side, but it seems worth the spurge so treat yourself girl 🩷
SurrealSkin® Foundation
U literally can not go wrong with this foundation! This was one of my first ever, it is a staple! This is the foundation in my makeup artist kit. I use it on all my clients 🥰

Primer
Everybody and they mama know how good this stuff is, and I am no different! This slimy,sticky primer is going to make ur makeup literally stick to ur skin and stay put!
Power Grip Primer
Just like the og power grip but with niacinamide for extra moisture 💧bomb dot com!
Power Grip Primer + 4% Niacinamide
I love me a good pore filling primer! I suffer from acne scares and large pores and this has been holding me down for years!
The POREfessional Face Primer
This is another pore filling/blurring primer I love! It is more expensive but the blurring affect on this is insane!
timeless smoothing pore primer
Affordable dupe for the tarte poreless primer! This blurs, mattifies, and controls oils from peaking thru though out the day!
Milani Conceal + Perfect Blur Out Smoothing Primer - 0.74 fl oz
Concealer
I’m not a big concealer girl, it just doesn’t work for me but this is what I use for my clients. Very light coverage so it’s not overwhelming. Nice creamy formula!
Maybelline Fit Me Liquid Oil-Free, Fragrance-Free, Dermatologist Tested Concealer - 15 Light - 0.23 fl oz
If u are looking for somthing more full coverage i love the elf camo concealers! Not drying at all like some other full coverage concealers. I love that about this one 🩷
Hydrating Camo Concealer
Bronzer/Contour
Super easy and mess free! I love cream bronzer because they look more natural and are less intimidating. Just take an angle and brush and press into those cheek bones and boom 😍 u can set with powder bronzer for more definition but if im going for a...
Cheeks Out Freestyle Cream Bronzer
Pair perfectly with the butter melt blushes and love the undertones of these bronzer they do not pull orange at all! Very natural and perfect for sculpting the face 🤌🏼
So bomb! If ur looking to splurge the charlotte is the way to go! Her powders are so smooth and pigmented! I can not put this one down!!!
Airbrush Bronzer – Medium - Matte Bronzer | Charlotte Tilbury

This is my RIDE OR DIE. If I had to choose one highlighter for the rest of my life, it would be THIS! So flattering on every skin tone and the formula baby? is SO GOOD! And it’s super affordable!
MegaGlo™ Highlighting Powder | Precious Petals
These diamond bombs are so freaking gorgeous! They are glittery with out being chunky, and just add the prettiest shine to the skin. I can use them literally anywhere to make ur self glow and sparkle ✨
Diamond Bomb All-Over Highlighter
I love Mac’s highlighters because they are so finely milled they do not emphasize my texture on my face. I loved these since high school. My current fav is the shade double gleam ✨
Extra Dimension Skinfinish Highlighter
Powders
This is such a staple. This is a never fails, get the job done type of setting powder. This is what I use on my clients.
Translucent Loose Setting Powder
Huda did her big one with this powder! My under eyes crease like crazy, and my eyes water so much, and concealer never sits right, but this setting powder helps so much. And it’s super blurring! But this is for that full beat supper snatched kinda lo...
EASY BAKE LOOSE POWDER Banana Bread | HUDA BEAUTY
This powder is very nice and super affordable! I liked how this wore under my eyes. My under eyes crease ALOT and I find that this does a good job at preventing that. I also tried in the light pink shade and it was very pretty!
Halo Glow Loose Setting Powder
Setting Sprays
Fix + is more of a fixing spray . It essentially melts all the powders onto the face after u apply them. Making ur makeup look more skin-like. Go in with an actual setting pray after this step!
Fix+ | Makeup Setting Spray
This was recommended to mei by the girl in Sephora. It definitely makes ur makeup last! It has a super fine mist that I love.
Milano luminoso blush is ICONIC. She is flattering on everyone! And it has a shimmer to it for that built in glow so u don’t have to wear highlighter(if u don’t want). This is a “backed” blush formula so it packs a punch. So much bang for ur buck! I ...
