Skin Prep

The key to glowy, clean girl makeup is the PREP! Prep that skin by cleansing, toning, and HYDRATING. Here are the products that I use and swear by.

The secret to dewy skin is in the PREP! I always cleanse, tone, moisturize, then SPF. This base face milk acts as a great moisturizer AND primer for my makeup. I'm obsessed!

This is the cleanser that my esthetician recommended to me and I love it. It's a great every day cleanser (sometimes I'll use a more exfoliating cleanser with salicylic acid or something, but this one is great for every day/in-between exfoliating). I...

I found this toner on a Reddit thread and I looooove it. Protecting your skin barrier is imperative in retaining moisture and protecting from sun damage, environmental factors, etc. It's pretty thick for a toner, so I just let it sink in for a while ...

This SPF doubles as a moisturizer! We love a double-duty product. Don't forget that sunscreen, folks.

Sometimes simple is best. I've literally tried every eye cream under the sun and I don't really think of any of the ones that promise insane results yield much. So I use this CeraVe undereye cream every day and it's wonderfully hydrating. If you have...

I friggin LOVE this serum - I honestly use it as my daily foundation, and even build it if I want more coverage. They have tons of shades to perfectly match your skintone. Bonus: it has SPF 40!!!

These blushes give you that “pinched cheeks” glow. I like the consistency and blending it in with my fingers for the most natural look.

When it comes to clean makeup, since I have hooded/smaller eyes, the mascara is EVERYTHING to make it pop. The ad photos make it look intense, but you don't need to layer it to the point of spider lashes. This mascara is my absolute fave (after tryin...

When it comes to natural makeup, bronzer is key. I love this powder formula and its tone because a quick swipe with a fluffy brush and I look sunkissed. I brush onto my cheeks and dab a bit on my temples, bridge of my nose, and jawline. BONUS: I even...

Low price tag, high impact concealer. When it comes to clean skin, concealer is everything, especially if you're using a light foundation or skin serum. This formula is thin enough to look natural, but provides enough coverage for pimples, redness, a...

The most natural looking lip color for a natural, but healthy pout. I love that I can use this as both a lip liner AND full lip color. The shades are beautiful and the consistency is velvet-y and amazing. I'll top this with a sheer lip balm for an ad...

If you skip the lip color, USE THIS! This is literally my go-to for healthy looking, plump lips. And it is NOT STICKY. I repeat, it is not sticky. It glides on, smells wonderful, and give my lips a natural sheen, not a sticky ultra-shiny gloss.
