I just started getting back into makeup! One of my friends helped me pick out items that truly work for me. Not only are they cheaper options but easy as well! I love truly making the meaning of beauty sleep 😂🥱

Prime Everything 🧖🏼‍♀️

Priming is one of the most important sets of any makeup routine.You have to put a barrier between your pores and the product. Don't forget, your face is not the only thing you need to prepare! Hair is just as important! These are my ways to do so 🧖�...

This is the ultimate face lotion. A good, cheap base that hydrates your skin so well! I use it after I take a shower, before I go to bed, and before I start my makeup! Trust she's all you need to have hydrated skin 🧖🏼‍♀️
Aquaphor

I bought this on a whim because my lips get dry easily. I love it! She's definitely a bit sticky but you don't need much to cover your lips. The next morning the stickiness is gone and my lips are softer than a cloud! Will be buying more for sure 😊
Clean Fresh Jammy Lip Sleeping Mask

When I put my hair back to do my makeup it definitely messes with my hair. This spray brings it back to life. Even if I'm just having a bad hair day or it feels real flat this helps instantly! I have wavy, thick hair if that helps as well ✨
3.81 oz Volumizing Dry Shampoo - Batiste

I absolutely love this product! It makes taking off my art so much quicker! I will say your face feels a bit oily after so I would suggest getting a facial cleanser for after you use it. Make sure your face is truly cleaned and reset 🫶🏼
Garnier Erase It All Cleansing Balm Vit C

This is what I suggest after that face balm. It makes my face feel so clean and clear immediately. I use this in the shower and after I take off my makeup! Love her 💕

Love love love! I love the foundation brush even though I don't use foundation! You should definitely look for a pack with both sponges and packers! Sponges for concealer and packers for powders 💞

This set is affordable and has everything you need! As long as they're soft but firm they're perfect! I'm going to buy a more expensive set when I have that money but these work amazing. I just want more aesthetically pleasing ones in the future 😌

This is a need!! Easy for travel and cheap. Obviously this is for makeup but honestly I use this Holy Grail more for my eyebrows! Easy to see every hair that should not be there 💕
MIYADIVA Travel Makeup Mirror with Lights
 
Tristyn Troxell profile picture
This is what I use to do my eyebrows! I have a cowlick in both of them so it makes doing them harder. You need a good mirror and patience. Brush your eyebrows a lot so see where the hairs are going. Finding a reference picture helps too. Make sure th...
TsMADDTs 8-in-1 Eyebrow Kit with Tweezers

For Your Face 💁🏼‍♀️

I personally do not use foundation but these are all the things I use for my face. Whether to define, shape, or shine! For reference I have more oily skin and I sweat more often. These products work wonders for me! ❣️

This does not come over!! I love the variety of colors. I use the 20 admire. A darker pink. All I do is line my lips and I'm off. Sometimes I'll do the whole lip but most of the time it looks great with just some definition 🥰
Outlast Lipstain

This one I did not personally purchase. My lovely friend gave it to me to help! She and I stand by this product! It doesn't leave a giant mess and maybe it's just me but it smells great!! 💕

I buy this in small. I don't use a crazy amount so it's perfect. Under the eyes, on any blemish, and where the light hits your face the most. It's creamy and hydrating!
NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer with Hydrating Medium Coverage

My friends have gone through a decent amount of setting spray just so it doesn't work. This is what all my friends use! It lasts all day and doesn't feel like hairspray on my face. Bonus it doesn't smell bad like some of them do 🫠
Milani Setting Spray + Primer, Make It Last

Seriously my favorite highlighter! I love the pink undertone to help make my blush pop. It's so pretty and honestly they have so many different colors to try! You can also use it as eyeshadow to create dimensions. Don't forget to shine your eyebrow b...
Roy G. Biv | Super Shock Shadow

I use this right after I put one the aquaphor to truly prime my skin. It feels so cool and refreshing. It does have some stickiness to it but that's pretty normal. It's not distracting or does it stay sticky forever 😊
Power Grip Primer | Sticky Gel + Hyaluronic Acid

This has everything you need for a full face! I often just take this and I'm ready to go. The colors are very flattering and work for a classic look. I definitely will be getting palettes with some more color in them 🌈

Love this to define my features! It comes with a sponge which is wonderful but I use my own. From what I saw this has many color ranges too! For oily skin btw!!
Fit Me® Matte + Poreless Powder Foundation Makeup

For Your Eyes 👁️

My favorite part of the look is the eye makeup! You can truly express yourself here. I just started makeup so my list is small at the moment but I can't wait to share my favorites in the future!!

Eyebrows are everything to look for me! I've been doing my own eyebrows for years so all I need is my cowlick to stay in place and for a little color to be added. This is the perfect product for that! I use one a little lighter than my eyebrows to ge...

I have always had a goth undertone to my vibe. I've used way too many eyeliners that just simply do not work. This one dries fast, doesn't smudge, but it's easy to fix if you need! Pro tip, q-tips are your best friend during this step 🫶🏼

My eyelashes look SO good after this! The brush is so nice and easy to use. I don't have long eyelashes by any means and I truly feel like this makes them stand out! Also it doesn't break the bank which I personally love so so much ❣️
Lash Sensational Sky High® Washable Mascara

I know some people love the black but I feel like it makes a bigger mess. I am not a pro at putting these on so the clear makes my mistakes almost invisible. This lasts very long and I will say it hurts a little when taking off but in my opinion it's...

Honestly I HATE eyelashes. They've always irritated my eyes and ruined my makeup. My friend taught me about half lashes and has changed the game forever! I switch between these and whispy ones as well! Don't forget to cut the corners off of both side...
