Started your first big girl job but don't know what to wear? I got you. These are clothing staples that you need in your closet - all office approved!

I know how hard it is to build a base makeup routine when you have dry, textured, and/or acne-prone skin. After over 5 years of Sephora samples, flaky foundation, and moisturizers that don't actually hydrate, I've found my holy grail products. This is a curated list of the skincare and base makeup products that have worked for me. Each section has a mix of budget + high end products so there is something for everyone!

Hot take: lip products can make or break your makeup routine. As someone who has at least 5 lip liners, glosses, and/or balms in my purse at all time, I can confidently differentiate a good product from a great one. These are high quality lip products that will elevate your look without breaking the bank. Thank me later!
