Skin Prep Before Makeup
These are the skincare products I use in my routine for amazing results for my makeup!
Â
I have repurchased this cleansor over and over and over again that I've lost count. I even use it as a morning and night cleansor to remove makeup and any impurities.
Tatcha - The Rice Wash Skin Softening Cleanser
Â
I love using this face cream if I need my skin to look extra plump before foundation!
Clinique - Moisture Surge Hydrator Gel-Cream
Â
I love love this face base milk. The results leave my skin looking plump, hydrated, and a clear layer on the skin for a great makeup look.
ILIA - The Base Face Milk Facial Essence & Lightweight Moisturizer
Base before Foundation
I like to paint on a full face of concealer, blush, and contour before patting on my foundation.Â
Â
This concealer is perfect for a snatched base and cleaning up my makeup after I apply eyeshadow!
Haus Labs - Triclone Skin Tech Hydrating + De-puffing Concealer
Â
This cheek tint is my favorite because of the pigmented, buildable formula.
Laura Mercier - Tinted Moisturizer Cream Blush
Â
I love this blush because it brightens my under eyes and my cheeks with a luminous glow!
MAC - Strobe Beam Liquid Blush
Â
This contour stick is so blendable and amazing on making my skin look snatched. I think this one is best used as an under painting before a base.
HAUS LABS - Precision Sculpt Shaping Balm Contour Stick
Base Makeup Products
For a romantic grunge look I want a matte base, but still hydrating on the skin so it's not sucked up dry.Â
Â
This is a fabulous foundation for a clean hydrated base. I do at least two layers and a shade lighter to make my face look brighter.
Lancôme - Teint Idole Ultra Wear Care and Glow Foundation
Â
I love using this foundation when I really want a matte base. This one pairs really great with the Urban Decay setting sprays as well!
Urban Decay - Face Bond Self Setting Waterproof Foundation
Â
I love this foundation brush because of how softly it blends onto my skin. I like using this brush in circular motions moving up, after applying dots of the foundation at the bottom of my face.
IT Cosmetics - Airbrush Blurring Foundation Brush #101 - IT Brushes For ULTA
Makeup for a Smokey Eye
These eyeshadow palettes and brushes are my solid go-to's for smokey eye makeup!Â
Â
The quality of this eyeshadow palette is fabulous! The powders don't dry up over time and I love the pigment from each shade.
Tarte - tartelette In Bloom Amazonian Clay Palette
Â
An affordable eyeshadow option for my romantic grunge makeup looks!
ColourPop - Of Quartz Pressed Powder Palette
Â
I like using this brush to pack on the eyeshadow on my eyelids and also brushing out the intensity on the edges to create a smokey effect.
e.l.f. Cosmetics - Eyeshadow ''C'' Brush
Â
If I want a clean smokey eye look, then I use this one to brush out the intensity.
Ulta Beauty Collection - Blending Eye Shadow Brush 166
Â
I love how this eyeliner makes my eyes look! It's a creamy formula and I like to put this in my waterline to tightline my eyes.
Feline Kohl Power Eyeliner Pencil - MAC | Ulta Beauty
Â
Hands down my favourite mascara to make my lashes thick and long! I add multiple lashes and push them upwards when applying for best results! Only two to three coats are needed for me.
Tarte - Tartelette Tubing Mascara
Â
These eyeliners by Sephora are long lasting and very pigmented! I love using this shade of red in my waterline!
Sephora Collection - 12 Hour Contour Pencil Eyeliner
Lip Combos
These are my favorite lip liners and lip sticks/stains to wear for grungey makeup!
Â
It's hard to believe that I'm almost done with a black lipliner, but it's true. It stays on the lips and feels thick when applying, so I would warm it up on the back of my hand before applying to my lips for best results.
NYX - Evil Genius Line Loud Longwear Lip Liner
Â
This lipliner is hands down my favorite lip liner formula. I like this shade because it's not too dar, but still a grey tone. I find it to last a long time on my lips and it pairs with every lip stick I use!
MAC - Greige Lip Liner Pencil
Â
I can never decide between my Greige lipliner or this one! It's a grey taupish lipliner so it pairs nicely with cool tones.
MAC - Stone Lip Liner Pencil
Â
This product is affordable and stays so well on the lips. I like using this for an extra romantic, grungey makeup look.
NYX Cosmetics - Stamina Lip Lingerie Matte Liquid Lipstick
Â
The formula on these are very long lasting, which is why I own multiple shades! I love this shade because it almost creates a concealer lip look.
Sephora Collection - #32 Iced Latte Cream Lip Stain Liquid Lipstick
Â
This shade is my most used lipshade by this collection. It's super flattering on any person, and I always recommended this to my clients!
Sephora Collection - #71 Pink Cashmere Cream Lip Stain Liquid Lipstick
Â
This shade is in a constant rotation with my other lip stains by Sephora. They say it's a lip stain, but it's a description based off of how well the product stays after application and not staining your lips after it is removed. So ultimately, it's ...
Sephora Collection - #72 Alter Ego Cream Lip Stain Liquid Lipstick
Â
I think this shade is so beautiful on every person that wears it! It was my most complimented shade when I was selling makeup in retail!
Sephora Collection - #120 Soft Mocha Cream Lip Stain Liquid Lipstick
Perfumes
I end a makeup look with a fabulous fragrance. Here are my date night favorites.Â
Â
I smelled this in Sephora and feel like this outshines any perfume I own. It's a floral scent that is not over powering, but I would describe this as a deep floral. It contains notes of amber, jasmine and peach.
BURBERRY - My Burberry Black -
Â
This perfume feels good to wear on a sunny spring day. It has notes of Bergamot, Jasmine, Benzoin, so it's a fresh floral and not too heavy or overpowering.
TOM FORD Soleil Neige Eau de Parfum
Â
This fragrence is my favorite floral based perfume ever. It was my first high end, full bottle perfume. The key notes are  centifolia rose, vanilla, and creamy sandalwood. I love wearing this when I want to feel like the classiest girl in the room.
Dior - Miss Dior EDP
