Recently upped my game with this mascara and I don't think I can ever go back. I've already repurchased 3 times but the bottle actually lasts so long because you only need one or two layers. THE BEST for lengthening and one or two swipes literally do...
Mascara L'Obscur - Gucci | Sephora
I always go back to this mascara, super easy to apply, makes my lashes look super prominent and comes off with just water
Clinique High Impact™ Mascara
Another one of my favorite mascaras. I usually apply on top of another one and it makes my lashes look so much fuller
Too Faced Better Than Sex Volumizing Mascara
They weren't exaggerating this mascara makes my lashes look sooo long. I love how the applicator applies a thin layer, helps me avoid clumps and it's super buildable
Lash Sensational Sky High Mascara - Maybelline
One of my favorite cheaper options for liner. It glides on and is easy to work with/adjust mistakes. Very long lasting and doesn't smudge at all because it's waterproof!
Epic Ink Waterproof Liquid Eyeliner - NYX Cosmetics
THE BEST. Totally worth all the hype it's so cheap and is multi use!! I use as a highlight and waterline eyeliner. Most of the white eyeliners disappear by the time I finish my make up but this one actually lasts
Jumbo Eye & Eyeshadow Pencil | NYX Professional Makeup
Favorite eyeshadow palette I've ever owned and has lasted me 8 years now since high school. The colors are neutral toned but perfect for a natural look/ smokey eye. Def worth the investment especially given how long it lasts
Urban Decay Naked3 Eyeshadow Palette
This palette is perfect for achieving the natural look. I use every shade and you can even get creative with it (I use darkest as eyeliner and the brown as a contour with a small brush). Super pretty staple to have and inexpensive
UnGilded Most Loved Mattes Eyeshadow Palette
The only serum I've tried that ACTUALLY works. My lashes grew a ton in less than 2 weeks and so many people noticed a difference/complimented them
GrandeLASH - MD Lash Enhancing Serum - Sephora
This is honestly my favorite eyeliner I've ever used. It's not leaky at all and it's wicked easy to be precise with. I've tried so many liners but I recommend this one most

I absolutely LOVE these lip-liners. They last so long and have the best shade range ever. Easy favorites are Wherever Walnut and Anywhere Caffeine. These are a must try.
Artist Color Pencil Longwear Lip Liner
A bit pricier but SO GOOD. Most of the other liners I've tried smudge/ aren't long wearing but this one actually lasts all day
Pillow Talk - Lip Cheat - Nude Pink Lip Liner Pencil
This lip stain legit lasts me all day even when I put tinted glosses or lipsticks over it. I've gotten so many compliments on the color (I use forever pink)

This gloss is so cheap and underrated. Works as an incredible dupe for the lip injection and the color selections are beautiful

Yup yup yup. This is a staple I've tried so many plumpers nothing beats this one. Results show up immediately and colors/tints are beautiful
Lip Injection Plumping Lipgloss

Lip Gloss - Lip Plumping Polish & Cream
I LOVE this lip oil.. the color actually lasts all day which is something I've been struggling to find with every lip product I've tried. I don't even reapply it just some aquaphor to remoisturize my lips throughout the day does the trick

Beautiful and not overhyped at all. Tint lasts so long too
Clinique Almost Lipstick Black Honey
Face
MY NEW FAVORITE BLUSH. The absolute BEST shade for the cool toned girls. So much product to use and I've barely made a dent (have had it for 6 months). So many people ask me what blush I'm wearing. So beautiful i will never go back.
Major Headlines Double-Take Crème & Powder Blush Duo
This blush really is worth its hype there's so much product and it's so tinted, will last you forever. I use 1 to 2 dots on each side. Most blushes I've found disappear after an hour but this lasts so long. Even after I scrub my make up off it leaves...
Soft Pinch Liquid Blush
This is my holy grail blush which I've been using since high school!!! I'm obsessed with the application and it's so creamy and easy to blend. I especially love how it applies over powder products without blotching or removing any of your base make u...
MILK Lip + Cheek Non-Comedogenic Cream Blush Stick
I've tried a million contour sticks and this is easily my favorite. Blends so easily with beauty blender and doesn't patch at all which I've found is pretty hard to find in other sticks. I prefer the cooler toned options but I also have this stick in...
Milk Sculpt Stick Cream Contour Stick
This is easily my favorite product in my bag, it gives the best glow and base for other products. It has light coverage so I don't use foundation over it. I have it in shades medium to match my skin tone and deep as a perfect bronzing drop dupe. Love...
True Match Lumi Glotion Natural Glow Enhancer - L'Oréal
Charlotte Tilbury flawless filter DUPPEEE. Literally the same thing for so much cheaper and has so many shades (darker I use for contour sometimes works perfectly and blends nicely together)

I love this product it lasts so long and does not patch AT ALL no matter what order I do my make up in
Benefit Cosmetics Hoola Bronzer
Not only is the packaging beautiful but I love how this bronzer is much cooler toned than others (I have the chocolate matte). It is SO easy to apply and a little goes a long way;)
Matte Bronzer: Chocolate Soleil Bronzing Powder
The only highlight I'll ever use. I have it in tickle which has a pink undertone and is great for applying on top of blush. It's also super pigmented so will last you forever..
Benefit Cosmetics Highlighter
Ok I KNOW about the price tag and I'm fully not a splurger but this is 1000% worth the splurge. It has completely transformed my makeup game and no powder has ever come close to the results this one gives. Worth every penny and lasts forever so very ...
Airbrush Flawless Finish Refillable Setting Powder
A classic but totally worth the hype. Definitely my favorite powder despite being on the pricier side. Does last superrr long though so very worth it in my opinion. Doesn't crease and gives my make up the airbrush effect all night. LOVE.
Translucent Loose Setting Powder
Pressed powders are underrated in my opinion. I use the true match one and it's my favorite cheap option by far. Lasts all night, not cakey and comes with a little pad which makes it nice and easy to apply. Also gives airbrush effect, I love and will...
L'Oreal Paris - Face Powder
This is the elf setting spray I use!! I love how it's a dewy finish because it makes my face feel so refreshed and glowy after applying all of my make up, and it smells like coconut :)

Such an amazing affordable option along with the Elf setting sprays. This is my best recommendation if you're looking for the cheaper option:)

The brow pencil I use and love (use a sharpener to get more precision)

e.l.f. Dual-Pencil Sharpener
The curler I use that ACTUALLY HOLDS THE CURLS AFTER MASCARA which is like nearly impossible to find. Super easy and gentle to use. Won't rip out your lashes
JAPONESQUE Lash Curler Limited Edition
My absolute favorite blending brush after applying all of my make up. Gives my make up THE MOST cohesive finish and helps bring the whole look together. Also highly recommend to those who like to apply bronzer to their neck/chest area.
Real Techniques Foundation Blender Kabuki Brush
the absolute best brush in the game. I use mostly just for bronzer but it applies so evenly with this which allows me to bronze my body as well. An absolute must have for make up this changed my entire look drastically
Airbrush Essential Kabuki Brush #145 - IT Brushes For ULTA | Ulta Beauty
Another amazing option for full face brushes. Elf brushes do not get enough hype at all they're so soft and give me the most airbrushed finish I've ever had with any other brushes
e.l.f. Kabuki Face Brush
I SWEAR BY ELF BRUSHES!!! They're the best and so cheap. Will never switch to another set. If you're in need of a new set I highly recommend this one. By far the best investment I've made in my make up.
