I run a business, live in an RV with 3 kids, and don’t have time for complicated routines. These are my go-to products for looking awake and put together in minutes — even on the busiest mornings.
Lightweight, natural, and evens out my skin without feeling like I'm wearing anything. Perfect for rushed mornings or when I just want a quick fresh-faced look.
Maybelline Super Stay 24HR Skin Tint
Blends like butter and instantly gives my face dimension. Foolproof for beginners!
e.l.f. Halo Glow Contour Beauty Wand
This blush melts into my skin and makes me look alive even on 4 hours of sleep!
e.l.f. Halo Glow Blush Beauty Wand
Sets everything without making me look cakey or dry. I use it lightly over my skin tint and under my eyes to keep shine down and makeup in place all day — even in Florida heat!
Maybelline Fit Me Matte + Poreless Powder
Full coverage that actually lasts — I use just a little under my eyes or on blemishes and it brightens me right up. A little goes a long way, and it blends fast with my fingers or sponge.
Tarte Shape Tape Concealer
My ride-or-die for quick mornings — adds instant volume and length without clumping. One coat and I look way more awake!
Maybelline Mascara
This stuff grips — my makeup lasts all day, even in the Florida heat. It’s a little sticky at first, but that’s what makes everything stay put. I let it sit for 30 seconds before applying foundation or skin tint.
Power Grip Primer
My go-to blender for everything. Soft, affordable, and makes my makeup look smooth, not streaky.
Real Techniques: Sponges
These brushes are soft, affordable, and actually get used — not just sit in a drawer. I use the fluffy one for powder, the angled one for blush or bronzer, and the smaller ones for blending concealer or eyeshadow. Great starter set that lasts.
Brush Sets - Real Techniques
Hydrates, heals, and adds shine — I never leave the house without it.
