1 drop and your set, this blush gives pigment like no other. It blends smoothly with ease and lasts for hours.
Soft Pinch Liquid Blush
The most stunnning shimmery shadow I've ever seen. The only one i could find that didn't have a gray cast. I get so many compliments when I wear it
Diamond Bomb All-Over Diamond Veil
Creme highlight / bronzer / contour Next up is adding dimension back into the face. I've been using this set of contour sticks from Smashbox that includes a highlighter (matte), bronzer, and grey-toned contour. Unfortunately this set has been discont...
Step-by-Step Contour Stick Trio
3 ALT. Creme highlighter / contour This stick duo only features a matte highlighter and a contour that (to my unexperienced eye) reads less grey than my Smashbox option does, but it is conveniently packaged as two halves of the same stick. This is a ...
Makeup Revolution Fast Base Contour Stick - Medium - 0.3oz
Powder bronzer I like to set my liquids / cremes with a powder as well for longevity. I've been using this powder bronzer to lock in the cream contour / bronzers with a nice, fluffy brush. I also sweep it lightly from the eye crease out to the templ...
Bronzer
Powder blush Again, using this powder to set my liquid blush for longevity. With blush especially, I find that it's important to almost “overdo” it a bit at the start since blush is one of the first things that “disappears” on a long day. I bought t...
Sephora Colorful® Blush
A hint of highlighter Brush a very, very light dusting on the tops of your cheekbones to draw attention. My Ulta Beauty illuminator is also discontinued so I've linked the Milani baked highlighter that appears to be extremely similar in shade. I've a...
Champagne D'Oro Baked Highlighter - Milani | Ulta Beauty
(OPTIONAL) Eye Primer I like the shade Sin since it matches my favorite shade for a base from the Urban Decay Naked (original) palette. When I know I'll be getting warm or be outside for a stretch of time, I'll use a little bit of primer to set the s...
Eyeshadow Primer Potion
Eyeshadow Lately I've been loving the Sephora brand Destinations Eye Palette. Unfortunately it was a limited release and is no longer carried. However, I've also linked a similar shade range that is still available!
fw_error_www
ALT Eyeshadow I'm currently loving the slightly peachy / orange-y eyeshadow look. I like using more neutral shade to contour the eye are as well as I have only a small double eyelid. I use my finger to press the shimmery shades into the inner corner ...

Eyeliner I also follow up with this eyeliner to create a little bit of a flicked wingtip on the outer edge.
Maybelline Hyper Easy Liquid Pen Eyeliner - Black - 0.018 fl oz
Eyeliner For a softer look, I'll use this Sephora collection jumbo eyeliner instead of the Urban Decay or Maybelline liners. Unfortunately, my favorite jumbo eyeliner / eyeshadow stick is discontinued, but it looks like they have another eyeliner+eye...

Mascara I've heard of this product for years as a dupe for Benefit's Better than Sex but I never purchased it. However, I've been testing out different waterproof formulas for my wedding and I have learned to absolutely love this. It's truly waterpro...
L'Oreal Paris Voluminous Lash Paradise Mascara - 204 Waterproof Blackest Black - 0.25 fl oz
Setting Spray I bought this Urban Decay setting spray for my travel makeup bag and I'll alternate between this, the CoverFX, and the Pacifica. All three help lock everything in place all day and all night!
All Nighter Waterproof Makeup Setting Spray
Setting Spray I have the old version of the CoverFX setting spray (see the second picture to see the difference) that has more of a spray nozzle than an aerosol. Personally, I don't mind the spray version, but I do appreciate the ease of the aerosol ...
Setting Powder & Spray
Setting Spray I bought this Pacifica Setting Spray because it had additional SPF and it was marketed as mattifying. I'm not sure if it is more or less mattifying than either of the higher end setting sprays I have, but I do appreciate the additional ...
Pacifica : Setting Spray & Powder
OPTIONAL Micellar Water This basically works like the oil cleanser if the oil cleanser was first mixed with water. For any remaining waterproof eye makeup, I'll use a bit of this on a cotton pad (or even a folded up square of toilet paper) and just p...

Foundation brush I use my fingers for the primer, so this is the first tool used in the glam section.
Buffing Foundation Brush
I use this to blend out my creme highlighter, bronzer, and contour products. The straight line helps me keep the products where I placed them rather than starting to blend out.
Contouring Brush
Powder bronzer brush I use the cheaper version of the ELF tools for the powder bronzer which I use sparingly enough for me not to have noticed too much difference in quality.
Angled Bronzing Brush
Powder blush brush I like a less angled brush for blush so I can more easily do softer circles to set the liquid blush. The one I have is discontinued, but it has more of a tapered point.
Powder Brush
Setting powder brush Remember in the movie Despicable Me where Agnes goes “IT'S SO FLUFFY”? That's me when I use this brush to press setting powder all over. The flat head allows me to literally press it into place (while also navigating around the n...
Powder Brush
Eyeshadow brush I use this to lay down a base layer of eyeshadow over the entire eyelid, and then use it again to sweep a lighter, shimmery shade on the inner corners.
Small Eyeshadow Brush | e.l.f. Cosmetics
Eyeshadow brush I use this to start to contour the eyelid using small circles and windshield wiper motions around the crease. I use this on lighter shades and then progressively darker as I move tighter to just the outer corner
Eye Crease Brush
Eyeshadow brush I use this to just clean up all of the edges and make sure they blend together and blend without a harsh color transition on the eyelid.
Blending Brush
The perfect combo packs. Perfect for testing out what products suits yours needs the best
