Brushes / Tools
e.l.f. makes affordable high quality products that fit my busy on-the-go lifestyle. I’ve been a customer for over 15 years and look forward to every new product launch! PS. Shopping on the e.l.f. website is a hack - you get points with every purchase...
e.l.f. Cosmetics
This brush is the perfect size for concealing under the eyes and small blemishes. It has soft bristles that distribute the product well.
Flawless Concealer Brush
e.l.f. brushes never disappoint! Love this for blending out all of my cream and putty products!
Liquid Bronzer & Contour Duo Brush
These sponges have the perfect bounce to blend out foundation and concealer. I like to dampen these to lighten up the coverage a bit.
Total Face Sponge Duo
A staple! I use this everyday - even when I'm not wearing makeup. Love how convenient it is to have the spoolie and brush all in one.
Eyebrow Duo Brush
If you only want to own one eye shadow brush, make it this one!! Soft and flexible, can be used in the crease and across the lid.
Eye Crease Brush
Makeup
This primer keeps my makeup looking flawless all day. Super lightweight and friendly to my sometimes acne-prone skin. I've tried the solid putty and the liquid formulas - love the feeling of the liquid best.
Liquid Poreless Putty Primer
I use this on full makeup days to hide my lack of sleep. Melts into the skin and layers under concealer like a dream!
Putty Color-Correcting Eye Brightener
These little palettes are all you need to create pretty eye looks! My favorite colors are ‘Cream & Sugar’ and ‘Take Your Pink.’ Super blendable formula and pigmented. I use the dark colors as liner for a soft look.
Bite-Size Eyeshadow
LOVEEEE a tubing mascara!! Lengthens lashes without getting clumpy, and doesn't get flaky throughout the day. And removing it is a DREAM - warm water washes it away no problem!
Lash XTNDR Mascara
The best budget brow pencil on the market. Creamy formula that doesn't tug at your brow hair, and the built in spoolie helps tame and blend.
Instant Lift Brow Pencil
This + the brow pencil = perfect brows. Love to use this alone on no makeup/light makeup days to pull myself together.
Brow Laminating Gel
Fool proof eyeshadow. I keep this in my car makeup kit for quick and eazy application. Love using a darker shade as eyeliner too!
No Budge Shadow Stick
I have one of these in every bag! Looks great with or without any other makeup. My favorites are ‘Pinkies Up’ and ‘Basic Beige.’
Glossy Lip Stain
Favorite concealer for a no makeup makeup look! Lightweight on the skin and buildable. Love the brush applicator too! Easy to throw in a bag and go.
Flawless Brightening Concealer
The putty line is my favorite! This bronzer blends so well and dries to a soft powdery finish. Favorite color is ‘Tan Lines’
Putty Bronzer
Buildable color and perfectly blendable. Cream product that dries to a powdery finish. Love the colors ‘Bora Bora’ and ‘Fiji’
Putty Blush
Skincare
Super refreshing to spritz on throughout the day! Love the coconut scent
Holy Hydration! Hydrating Coconut Mist
Most efficient make up remover I've ever used. Melts into your skin to take off the day - even waterproof makeup and sunscreen. I always follow with a facial cleanser for best results.
Holy Hydration! Makeup Melting Cleansing Balm
SPF is a MUST! This gives you a nice glow and protects from UV rays. Love to use by itself or under makeup. It's a little shimmery, so get the regular version if you don't want the extra glow. My favorite color is 'Sunbeam.'
Suntouchable Whoa Glow SPF 30
If it's fragrance free it's for me! Super hydrating face cream that gives you results. I like to use as a night cream, but the formula is lightweight enough to wear during the day.
Holy Hydration! Face Cream Fragrance Free
This is my go-to when I need to redo my makeup before an evening event, or when I don't feel like doing a whole skincare routine at the end of the day. Easy on the eyes too!
