Base, Blush & Glow
A comfortable-looking base, a little cheek color and the finishing touches. Start with the coverage and glow you enjoy, then choose the products that fit that look.
This liquid highlighter can also be used as an eyeshadow. It's smooth and buildable and comes in 7 shades.
Dior Forever Glow Maximizer Complexion Liquid Highlighter
A sheer shimmer highlight that is buildable. It's available in 4 beautiful shades. The packaging feels very luxe.
Forever Glow Luminizer Highlighter with Hyaluronic Acid
Subtle but buildable face highlighter palette. These four shades gives the skin a soft glow. The shades in these highlighter quads can also be used as eyeshadows.
Dior Backstage Glow Maximizer Multi-Use Highlighter Palette
This is a full coverage creamy concealer, but it feels lightweight. It only takes a tiny amount to get coverage. It lasts all day and covers what I need covered.
Vanish™ Airbrush Concealer | 16 Hour Wear
Matte makeup setting spray that lasts up to 16 hours to keep makeup looking fresh.
Airbrush Flawless Setting Spray: Hydrating Waterproof Setting ...
Smooths on, easy to blend, hard to crease once it is set. Doesn't enhance my fine lines.

Gives a glowy, naturally rosy look to the cheeks.
Rosy Glow: the iconic Dior blush with pH-activated color | DIOR US
Moisturizing formula for long wear neutralizes discoloration and counteracts dark circles.
Bobbi Brown Skin Color Correcting Concealer Stick for Dark Circles
This has a beautiful finish. It's sweatproof and waterproof too.
Real Flawless Foundation – Vegan, Waterproof & Fragrance-Free
This is a skin perfecting cosmetic product that can be worn alone or as a foundation primer. It blurs imperfections and makes skin look its best. It controls oil and is sweatproof. The only drawbacks are that it's not for dry skin and does not hide s...
Yummy Skin Blurring Balm Powder - Danessa Myricks Beauty | Sephora
A pressed-powder compact for a polished finishing touch and a place in the handbag. This is an alternative to look at if Charlotte Tilbury’s compact is on your wish list. The listing is shade 3, so check that shade first. Similar packaging is not the...
MCoBeauty Miracle Flawless Pressed Powder 3
A little warmth can wake up a simple makeup look. This liquid bronzer is a choice for blending into your base or adding soft shape. Go easy at first: bronzing warmth and cooler contour shading create different effects.
e.l.f. Camo Liquid Bronzer & Contour, Vegan
Loose powder for the days your base needs a little setting. I’d keep the application light and concentrate on the areas that get shiny. Choose this if you like a loose format; a pressed compact has a different feel in the makeup bag.
wet n wild Photo Focus Loose Baking Powder
For cheek color without extra shimmer, Hydrangea is the matte option here. Start with a soft sweep and build the color. I like the idea of letting a matte blush balance a glowy base rather than making every part of the face sparkle.
Jason Wu Beauty Wu Blush Matte Hydrangea
For a fresh-looking flush, this is the dewy cheek-tint option. A little color over a simple base can carry the whole look. Choose the shade you enjoy and check the ingredients if fragrance is a concern.
Glow Recipe Niacinamide Dewy Flush Tinted Blush
Desert Rose is a blush to consider for a soft, warm-looking cheek. The appeal is that touch of color that makes a simple face look finished. Look at swatches on a skin tone close to yours before choosing.
Beauty Creation Soft Blush in 'Desert Rose'
Bare Reveal is the creamy nude option here. Nude lipstick is personal: the same shade can look soft on one person and much lighter on another. Compare it with your natural lip color and the liner you already reach for.
Maybelline Color Sensational Cream Finish Lipstick, Bare Reveal
A shiny lip is an easy finishing touch when the rest of the makeup is simple. Wear this gloss alone or over a liner you already love. Check the selected shade, especially if a soft pink is the look you have in mind.
Maybelline Lifter Gloss Hydrating Lip Gloss
Line Leader is a lip-pencil option for giving lipstick or gloss a little more shape. A shade that works with several lip colors earns its spot in the makeup bag. Compare its undertone with your natural lips and your most-worn lipstick.
MAYBELLINE Lifter Liner Lip Pencil, Line Leader
Eyes: Soft Definition & Sparkle
Matte neutrals for shape, pencil liner for definition and a little sparkle when the mood calls for it.
This is the perfect matte neutral eye shadow palette to add definition to the eyes.
Mini Eye Sculpt Palettes – All‑Matte Sculpt Shades
A matte nude palette for everyday definition: a lighter shade, a little midtone shape and depth near the lashes. Look for the undertones you actually wear. This is a useful direction if you want several neutral eye looks from one palette.
Revolution Master Icon Matte Nudes Palette
A pencil liner for defining the eyes without turning the whole look into a project. Start close to the lashes and build the line you want. This is an option to compare with a luxury pencil when glide and a useful everyday shade matter more than the n...
L'Oreal Paris Infallible Pro-Last Eyeliner
A little sparkle over a simple eye look is sometimes all the extra makeup you need. White Hot is a sheer white sparkle topper. Keep your matte shades for definition and let this be the fun finishing touch.
e.l.f. Fine As Fleck Glitter Eyeshadow White Hot
Lips: Nudes, Gloss & Definition
An easy nude, a shiny gloss or a liner that pulls the look together. Choose the tint that works with your natural lip color.
For a makeup look where shine is the distraction, this is the mattifying-mist option. The useful test is how it looks over your own foundation and powder. A spray should complement the base you like wearing.
Carcelin Mattifying Setting Mist
An under-eye primer stick for the getting-ready stage, before concealer. The stick format is handy if you prefer a targeted step. Use a light layer and follow the directions so your concealer remains the star of the show.
essence Jelly Grip Under Eye Primer Stick
Glossy lips without a full lipstick look: that is the appeal of a lip oil. This two-pack is an option if you want both tubes. Choose for the shine, tint and texture you enjoy, since a similar look does not mean the same formula as a luxury oil.
Amora Super Shine Oil 2-Pack
A pale nude lip can look polished with a little definition around the edges. This cream lipstick is an option for that look. Check the selected shade and try pairing it with a liner close to your natural lip color.
Maybelline Color Sensational Lipstick Cream
For a juicy-looking lip with a little tint, a glossy oil is an easy direction to try. Check the selected NYX shade if you are after a rich brown look. Your natural lip color will influence the finished effect.
NYX Fat Oil Lip Drip Moisturizing Gloss
Warm Nude 020 is the under-eye brightener to look at when a warmer corrector suits your makeup. A small amount under concealer keeps the routine simple. The shade matters more than whether the pot reminds you of a luxury favorite.
