No matter what, I just keep coming back to everything on this list. These are (mostly) things I’ve bought year after year and will probably continue to buy year after year.

These tend to be staples I always come back to, no matter what other products I try
Great color, lasts all night, minimal transfer.
MAC Retro Matte Lipstick | Ruby Woo, All Fired Up, Dangerous & More
Great buildable coverage that lasts all night. Doesn’t get cakey. Even stayed on while I cried at a wedding ceremony.
Tip: asked to get a free sample when you get color matched. It’s a perfect travel size bottle for out of town long weekends.
Estée Lauder - Double Wear Stay-in-Place Foundation
A little goes a long way. I like to put a small dab on my eyebrows and under eyes to help everything stay in place. This really cements eyeshadows to your lids, even on hot, humid days.
Urban Decay Cosmetics - Original Eyeshadow Primer Potion
Perfect non-makeup makeup.
Protec(tint) Daily Skin Tint SPF 50
I love the way the pencil has a sharp edge. It makes drawing thin lines so much easier
Goof Proof Brow Pencil
An inexpensive concealer to help hide any red blemishes
LA Girl HD Pro Corrector Concealer
Easy to hold and apply. Glides on super smooth
Stay All Day® Waterproof Liquid Eye Liner
A bit more pricey than the rest of my makeup bag but I love this mascara.
Gucci L'Obscur Lengthening Mascara

Tools and products that I use on my fine, thin, type 1A hair
My hair never holds a curl unless I use this curling iron. Best thing is that I don’t have to use mousse or gel with it, just heat protectant. Curls last until I was then out.
CHOPSTICK STYLER | DESIGNED TO REVOLUTIONIZE CURL STAYING ...
If you want pink hair that won’t leave your hair, this is it. Iroiro’s Hot Pink is one and done. Mix it with some conditioner if you’re not ready to make the full commitment and to help ease the bathroom stains.
IROIRO | Brands
Gentle enough to not hurt and strong enough to brush out my knots. I also feel like I clean my hair out of this brush less than my old wet brushes.
Tangle Teezer hair brush
Works just as well as the It’s a 10 for a fraction of the price
Leave In Conditioner Compare to Its a 10 Miracle Leave-in
Gives my fine, thin hair a little extra oomph without making it super stiff
