First concealer I've liked in a long time. Great coverage with a beautiful finish. This does not settle in fine lines. Great for highlighting and contouring as well. Favorite contour shade is NW55

Best new concealer! This 24 hour wear concealer is a game changer. I've been struggling to find a concealer that won't settle in my over 40 lines especially around my eyes. I was skeptical based on previous formulas but I tried it and I haven't look...

A must have if you have under eye darkness. Can also be used on other areas of discoloration. If your discoloration is more blue/purple choose a bisque tone. If your discoloration is more green/brown choose a peach tone.

Beautiful, Radiant finished foundation best for normal to dry skin. This has a buildable coverage-medium to full. I recommend going up a shade lighter than your usual.

A must have if you use eyeshadow, either powder or cream. This makes your eye makeup bullet proof. No creasing after wearing all day long. In addition to long wear, it also intensifies the colors.

Perfect for a quick, easy shadow look. You can use fingertips to blend or a brush. These are always in my bag when I travel for quick and beautiful eye shadow.

Love these new lip liners for anyone new to lip liner. More subtle than the traditional wood clenched pencil. Great for overlining if you want to have more plump looking lips.

The best makeup sponge! I was never a beauty blender gal, I didn’t get it. Maybe because I’m 45 lol. I was gifted this last year from a makeup artist and I am hooked! It has a totally different texture. Very spongy and soft.
