Let’s be honest, we ALL had a James Charles phase. But not every product that big influencers use work for me (or afford them). I don’t have a ton of acne, and I love having my freckles show, so these are my favorite natural/minimal makeup products!

Prep
Skin prep is so important to ensure long lasting makeup!
The BEST primer I’ve ever used. I’ve worn this to concerts in the rain and my makeup stayed just as perfect as when I put it on.
e.l.f. Power Grip Face Primer
My literal holy grail! Makes my skin looks so clean and smooth!
Glazing Milk
Coverage
Cover up those little unwanted sports on your face to have smooth looking skin!
If you’re looking for something with light coverage, this is the PERFECT option. It goes on so smoothly and gives a natural glow.
Sheer Skin Tint With Hyaluronic Acid + Squalane
My holy grail of concealers. I’ve always used the liquid one, but ever since they came out with the stick I’ve been OBSESSED.
shape tape™ blur concealer stick
Say goodbye to your eye bags. Didn’t get enough sleep? No one will ever know!
Positive Light Under Eye Brightener
Color and Glow
Sculpt and brighten up your face to get a snatched look!
The name for this is perfect, because the texture is so milky and melts right into your skin. My jawline has literally never looked so snatched.
Sculpt Stick Cream Contour Stick
Super creamy consistency that just give your face the perfect tan glow.
MILK Makeup's Matte Cream Bronzer Stick
My top pick for a powder bronzer. I sometimes ever put this on top of my bronzer stick because it’s just that good.
Hoola Matte Bronzer powder bronzer for face
The Rare Beauty liquid blushes are truly the BEST on the market. They are suuuuper pigmented, so I love the shade Hope!
The perfect everyday natural glow. It’s a super dewy, easy apply highlighter that’s not overly bright, but bright enough to make your face glow. More of a shine than a glitter.
MERIT Day Glow Highlighting Balm
I personally use this more as an eye shadow than a highlighter because it is SO bright. It’s a perfect highlighter for going out, but be careful because it crumbles VERY easily.
Literally the best primer I’ve ever tried. Whenever I use white ones I always miss a spot. With this one I don’t have to worry about that because it’s already black!
Better Than Sex Foreplay Mascara Primer
This is the mascara I use, but honestly all of the ones from Too Faced are amazing.
Naturally Better Than Sex Mascara
The length that this mascara gives me is UNMATCHED.
Ribbon Wrapped Lash Tubing Mascara
The absolute BEST budget friendly mascara! It makes my lashes look soooo long! I use the shade “blackest black” !
Colossal Bubble Washable Volumizing Mascara
Brows
Keep your brows looking salon fresh!
After I put this on, my brows are locked in position.
Brow Gel & Wax
I put this one before the clear brow gel to give my brows a more fullness look!
Gimme Brow+ Volumizing Eyebrow Gel
Set
That makeup isn’t going ANYWHERE!
After I put this on, I have peace of mind knowing my makeup isn’t going anywhere anytime soon.
Charlotte Tilbury Transfer-Proof Setting Spray
My skin looks absolutely stunning after I put this on. I use the shade Sweet Honey!
Ultimate Blurring Setting Powder | ONE/SIZE by Patrick Starrr
This setting powder is perfect for setting your under eyes! Every time it looks flawless and it’s never cakey.
True to Myself Tinted Pressed Finishing Powder
Lips
Add a pop of color and some plump to your lips!
100% worth the hype. The color stays all day and consistency is so buttery soft.
maracuja juicy lip plump gloss
The best gloss on the market in my opinion. Perfect for everyday natural looks! My favorite shade is Fu$$y.
Lip Gloss
I’ll probably never use another lip balm again because this one is truly the best one I’ve tried!
Lip Butter Balm, Pink Sugar
Honestly, this works better than most other lip products for long lasting color! I use this and then top it off with some gloss
