Foundations I use as a 42 year old mom with hormonal acne.
These are some of my favorite go-to foundations.
This is my go-to affordable foundation. It provides good coverage without showcasing my pores.
Soft Glam Satin Foundation - Medium Coverage | e.l.f. Cosmetics
I really like this foundation during the winter when my face is feeling a little dry and dull.
maracuja 12-hour hydrating tinted moisturizer
I recently started using this serum foundation. It takes very little product and it looks beautiful on the skin. Just enough coverage to even out skin tone, but still look like skin and not caked on makeup. Plus, you really can't beat the price!
The Ordinary Serum Foundation
Under Eyes
Products I use on my dark under eye circles.
This peach color corrector really helps with my purple dark circles. I swear everything settles in my fine lines and this doesn't. Some days I don't even put concealer over top because the tiny bit of corrector I use covers so well and looks natural!

GrandeLASH - MD: Lash-Enhancing Serum
I've ALWAYS pinched the delicate skin on my eyelids when I curl my lashes. I went to look for a new curler and found this one. With the help of AI, I determined I have almond shaped eyes. This doesn't pinch my delicate skin! I easily curl my lashes n...

Face
Blush, contour, bronzer, etc.
I absolutely love this contour and blush combo. I get so many compliments when I wear it. The contour really carves out my cheeks and the blush leaves a nice flush of color with a nice sheen.
