I have South Asian skin, and lately I tend towards a more natural base and eye makeup, but I love a bold lip and blush!

In shade 9.5! I use this pretty sparingly, just dot over my acne/dark spots and buff out with a brush.

I use shade 11! The nice thing about skin tint is that the shades are much more forgiving! This product is super moisturizing and glowy and looks like skin.

I usually use a touch of this as an inner corner highlight! But occasionally I'll sweep it over the entire lid. It's so pretty.

Milk blushes are my favorites - they're so easy to blend. Werk pulls surprisingly neutral on me! I need two swipes to get the coverage I want, but it doesn't seem to clash with any of my lipsticks.

Blush brush! It's so soft and I love the density. It's specifically for cream/liquid blushes.
