I’ve tried a lot, but these are the ones that never disappoint. Skin looks like skin, lips stay soft, and the face card? Never declines.

For those who take lip care seriously 💋
It’s hydrating, not too sticky, and feels great on the lips!
Pout Preserve Peptide Lip Treatment
By far my favorite lip balm! Stays on for hours. I’ve been using it for YEARS before it went somewhat viral. Love the colors, the texture, and it’s the perfect amount of hydrating and not too sticky
Naturium Phyto-Glow Lip Balm
If you’re looking for something cheaper, plastic-free, and great for healing chapped lips - this is the one. I found myself reapplying, not because I needed to, but because I loved the feeling of this one! I like the tin a lot, but the one in the reg...
Vaseline Lip Therapy Balm Tin
In my top 3 favorite lip balms. It’s a little stickier than some of my others, but still a great choice. Hydrating and leaves my lips really soft. Not sure how to describe the scent, not quite minty, but a little sweet, but not overpowering. Subtle a...
Topicals Slick Salve Glossy Lip Balm
Been obsessed with these since I worked at Ulta back in 2015! The color range is phenomenal, there’s truly a shade for everyone, and I love that they’re not too sticky and work well over lipstick
NYX Butter Gloss Non-Sticky Lip Gloss
I got one of these at a farmer’s market randomly years ago, but I’ve been using it ever since. Feels great going on, very hydrating, makes my lips very soft, and I love the wider applicator. Also, love that it’s plastic-free!

The must-haves I use to enhance my natural glow ✨
My favorite cream blush stick. Finally, a blush that blends well and shows up nicely on darker skin tones. I have the color Dune. I use it almost everyday, and it’s lasted me over a year! Love adding some to my eyelids too for an effortless day-to-da...
Ami Colé Desert Date Cream Blush & Lip Multistick
I love that this is lightweight (I don’t love full coverage anymore), yet it still builds to medium coverage. The fact that it also has SPF makes it the perfect CC cream!
IT Cosmetics CC+ Nude Glow Lightweight Foundation + Glow Serum with SPF 40 and Niacinamide
I love adding this on top of my cream blush as a sort of blush/highlight combo. Also, works great on the lids to add a little color and brightness to the eyes
e.l.f. Halo Glow Blush Beauty Wand
It was easy to find my shade in this. It blends SO well, and I love how long it has lasted me. I don’t get that ashy or reddish look, and it doesn’t go on cakey.
MAKEUP BY MARIO SoftSculpt® Cream Contour & Bronzer Shaping Stick
Never been a powder foundation girl, but the coverage on this goes crazy! Also, I feel like it does really well on its own and provides a really good level of coverage. Gives a great blurring effect too
ONE/SIZE by Patrick Starrr Turn Up The Base Versatile Powder Foundation
This stuff is the sh*t! It’s great to wear under makeup, but more importantly, it has made my skincare routine SO much easier. I spray on after cleaning my face, add my moisturizer, and if I’m going out, my SPF last. That’s it! No serums or creams to...
Iris&Romeo The Reset Luminous Hyaluronic Acid & Niacinamide Serum Spray
I’ve had this palette for a hot minute. Yes, it’s pricey, but so worth it. I feel like you get a lot for the price, it’s quality, and these days I much prefer matte over sparkles. I love that I can use the lighter color to add a highlight and help bl...
MAKEUP BY MARIO Master Mattes™ Eyeshadow Palette
Another favorite I've been using since my 2015 Ulta days....I like the orange color corrector for my dark circles, the green for any redness, and the darker brown shades for contouring. The orange cc is what I use nearly every day, though!
L.A. Girl Pro Conceal HD Concealer
Took me a while to find a concealer that I really liked. I'm very picky in that I want coverage without cakey, but it also can't apply too thin. This one strikes a great balance! It's also my perfect winter shade, so I can wear it solo without founda...
ONE/SIZE by Patrick Starrr Turn Up the Base Butter Silk Concealer
I don't use primer often, but when I do, she's THAT girl! It has a velvety texture and really does blur your pores without that greasy sensation.
SEPHORA COLLECTION Smooth + Blur Primer
I have really tried to find a mascara that I like, and I go back to this oldie but goodie every time! I also love that they have the mini size for travel
