Gloss & Jellies
This section is all about shine, comfort, and juicy color. From sheer balms to lightly tinted oils and glosses, these are the easygoing, swipe-and-go products I love—bonus points if they smell amazing (and most of them do).
A little gritty, yeah—but the scent and color make up for it. Raspberry Jelly smells so good and gives a really pretty tint, so I’ll still reach for it when I’m out of my Summer Fridays. Not the smoothest formula, but sometimes it’s worth it for the ...
Rhode | Peptide Lip Tint - Raspberry Jelly
The jelly applicator tip is everything and this formula is so creamy and not sticky at all- cherry and poppy flavors are my fave!! Color payoff and scent are what make these stand out🥳
Summer Fridays | Cherry Lip Butter Balm
I originally got this as a backup... then I opened it and now it’s in the full rotation. Poppy smells amazing—bright and fruity, but not too sweet—and the tint is so flattering. I meant to wait until I finished Cherry, but I couldn’t resist. No regre...
Summer Fridays | Lip Butter Balm - Poppy
Smells so good—bright, citrusy, and kind of addictive. I love using this on top of lip liners as a gloss. It adds just the right amount of shine without feeling sticky, and the passion fruit scent gives it a fun little boost. Super fresh and easy to ...
Burt's Bees | Hydrating Lip Oil - Passion Fruit
Liners & Lipsticks
Structured, dependable, and full of pigment. These are the lip liners, crayons, and lipsticks I count on when I want definition, bold color, or a good layering base. Whether I’m wearing them alone or pairing them with a gloss, they always show up.
A solid neutral that’s super close to my natural lip tone. It lasts really well throughout the day and works perfectly for overlining or pairing with glosses and other lipsticks. Siren has become one of my go-to liners when I want definition without ...
Kylie Cosmetics | Lip Liner - Siren
The longest lasting lipliner I’ve found to date!! Perfect on its own, with a bit of gloss, or as the base for a full lip look. Perfectly matte, not flakey, and creamy to apply
MakeupForever | Artist Color Pencil Liner
The mini kit is elite—I've had mine forever and it's still going strong. Both the lipstick and liner are super creamy with great color payoff, and I love how they blend seamlessly with other lip products. The matte finish is soft and flattering, not ...
Charlotte Tilbury | Pillow Talk Lipstick & Lip Liner Kit
Gorgeous color with the coolest shimmer—it catches the light in such a unique way. The formula is super buildable, so you can go from a soft wash to full color easily. It does need to be reapplied throughout the day, but the shiny, almost iridescent ...
L'Oreal Paris | Colour Riche LipStick - Mica
An icon for a reason. Ruby Woo is that bold, true red that somehow looks good on literally everyone. The matte formula is definitely on the drier side, but the color payoff is unreal—and once it’s on, it’s not going anywhere. I always feel a little m...
MAC | Matte Lipstick - Ruby Woo
Such a solid drugstore lip—can’t really go wrong with any shade. It’s super pigmented, so I like dotting it on and blending with my fingers for a soft, blurred look, or using it as a long-wear base. The twist-up packaging means it lasts forever, and ...
Maybelline | Super Stay Ink Crayon
I’ve never met a lip stick that stays on longer than this one. Great color payoff and the gloss attachment is a great perk. I will say sometimes it makes my lips feel a little chappy but worth it for how long it lasts. I can eat a burger and still ha...
Revlon | Liquid Lipstick with Clear Gloss
Cheeks
Creams, stains, and blushes that blend easily and bring life to my face. Some are dewy, some are matte, but they all give that “I just got fresh air” kind of look. A few of these double as lip products too—because we love a multitasker.
This feels like cold water going on—but the finish? Total sun-kissed flush. I use it mostly on my cheeks, and it dries down fast, so you’ve got to work quickly. The result is that just-got-back-from-the-beach, slightly over-sunned look in the best po...
Milk Makeup | Cooling Water Jelly Tint Lip + Cheek Blush Stain
Super pigmented and totally matte—this shade nails that cozy fall flush. Sleepy Girl gives the kind of moody, warm color that makes you look extra alive when the weather cools down. I love that there’s no shimmer—just a smooth, buildable tint that bl...
Rhode | Pocket Blush - Sleepy Girl
Phenomenal and ate down. So buildable and creamy. Lasts almost all day and doesn’t look greasy. Love the glassy pomelo for a fair skin tone
HausLabs | Color Fuse Glassy Blush Balm Stick
Even tho people say it’s too pigmented— that’s the whole point I fear. I love this. No notes 10/10
Rare Beauty | Soft Pinch Liquid Blush Mini
I've had this forever—probably just as long as my High Beam—and it still works like day one. I use it sparingly with my fingertips on both lips and cheeks when I want that barely-there, just-bitten flush. The stain is subtle, super buildable, and wea...
Benefit | Benetint Cheek & Lip Stain
Such a sweet, easy-to-wear palette—I’ve loved using this one. The shades blend beautifully for a soft flush, and the finish is super natural. Sadly, it looks like it’s no longer sold, but I’d repurchase in a heartbeat if it came back.
