Lippies are my favorite thing in the world, here are the best I have tried✨
10/10 🌟🌟My new favorite lip product! The shade guava fresca is just perfection. Completely replaced all other lip brands for me. Perfect balance of color and hydration. Metal applicator is just amazing.
Eadem Lip Balm - Guava Fresca
7/10. I use this over the eadem guava freca and achieve the best no lip liner lip combo! The scent of iced coffee is just amazing! The shade is sheer brown.
Summer Fridays Lip Butter Balm - Iced Coffee
10/10, LOVE THIS 🌟,replaced it for the eadem because the tint on the eadem is better. But this is amazing for hydration and has a sheer pink shade. It makes lips look full and plump.
Ole Henriksen - Pout Preserve Peptide Lip Treatment - Strawberry sorbet
10/10 🌟 The lip mask og for a reason! My tried and true. Have tried multiple other lip masks such as fenty, naturium, etc. And laneige is the best. My lips feel plump, pink, and full.
LANEIGE Lip Sleeping Mask Intense Hydration with Vitamin C
9/10 a bit on the pricier side of the drugstore. I LOVE the shade no filter needed, only thing I don't like it's that for the price I feel like there is such little product.
Fat Oil Slick Click Lip Oil Stick | NYX Professional Makeup
10/10 Lip Plumper 🌟 First tried it in the sephora birthday gift kit but it is hands on the best lip plumper. Better than fenty (burns my lips) perfect color and buttery smooth.
Makeup by Mario | MoistureGlow™ Plumping Lip Serum
10/10 Again tried it in the birthday gift from sephora but it is 100% WORTH IT! It includes a brush and a sharpener. Long lasting, great pigment, and blendable.
Makeup by Mario | Ultra Suede® Sculpting Lip Pencil
Foundations/Skin Tint
I am not a foundation user due to my acne so…skin tints are my go to✨
1000/10 ⭐️ Truly feels like skin. My top choice for skin tint. Beats out any Sephora skin tint I have tried (saie, tower 28, ilia, etc). Ordered a pump off amazon to not deal with the dropper.
True Match Hyaluronic Tinted Serum - L'Oréal Paris
Blush
Blush Addict 🙈 Probably the largest part of my collection ✨
1/10, This blush broke me out in ways that my skin has not even recovered from yet. Wanted to love it, ended up hating it 👎🏼. Had shade chilly.
Saie Dew Blush - Liquid Cheek Flush
ONE THOUSAND OUT OF TEN 🌟. Best blush in the whole wide world. I have three shades: she’s blushing, she’s a doll, and she’s the moment. Goes AMAZING! Pigment is 10/10. Just no words i love it.
Patrick Ta - Major Headlines Double-Take Crème & Powder Blush Duo
10/10. Most recent addition to my blush collection. LOVE 🌟 so far. The shade sleepy girl is the perfect day to day shade. Sort of a soft mauve. Very creamy and blendable.
Rhode pocket blush - Sleepy Girl
7/10, Used to be my go to. Now I just don’t reach for it as much anymore as I am preferring stick cream blushes more. I have the shade rose crush which gives u the sunburnt look. Still a very good blush. Very creamy.
Soft Pop Plumping Blush Veil
7/10. Its good just not Amazing. I keep it in my purse as it’s very convenient due to its brush on the bottom. Shade: dusty rose.
Makeup by Mario - Blush Stick
Sometimes 5/10 and sometimes 10/10. My experience with this blush is soo inconsistent. Sometimes its patchy and gives me acne, other times its perfect.
Rare Beauty Soft Pinch Liquid Blush | Long-Lasting Dewy & Matte Blushes
Its good if you have dry skin. Since I have oily skin, and this is a very oily formula. I like it but only use it for beach days.
Pixi Blush Cream Stick
Brushes/Tools

Again 10/10 ⭐️. Newest brush to my collection. Love to use one side for foundation or skin tint and the other for bronzer. The quality of makeup by Mario is simply amazing.

Simply 10/10 🌟 Another new addition to my collection. Use it for setting and finishing powders since I don’t really use any other powder products on my face.
Makeup by Mario - F2 Dual-Ended Powder Brush
9/10 🙈. Fun fact: this was my first makeup brush ever, I used to use it for concealer and blush. Now I just don’t reach for it anymore. Keep it in my purse for touchups.

I have naturally long lashes so a good voluminizing and lengthening mascara is a must✨
9/10 🌟 Best brown mascara I have personally tried from the drugstore. Only wishing it was waterproof 😖.
L'Oreal Paris Voluminous Lash Paradise Mascara Latte Brown
4/10. Wanted to love but it smudged way to easily. It was always clumpy and just not good. Not worth the price.

I wax my eyebrows, but sometimes use these when they need a litle pick me up✨
8/10 Only brow gel I have ever tried. Since I wax my eyebrows, I only ever use this If I am due for a wax and need them to look decent. Very Good for the price.
Eyebrow Glue Instant Brow Styler | NYX Professional Makeup
10/10 🌟 From the drugstore but works like high end! Amazing and only $12. I love this because of its nano tip, I can achieve fine lines perfectly!
