honestly, I use the spooly to brush my eyebrows into shape. rarely do I fill in my brows unless I feel like they need some filling. it’s nice and affordable if you just want to shape your brows :)

niacinamide is an ingredient that makes your skin brighter (not whitening); it feels so refreshing to use on my face!

lip glosses

what’s life without a little color? :D this one especially goes out to my dark skin girls who are afraid of wearing brighter colors!

i use the shade “nude glow” to not only brighten my under eyes, but give a pop to the blush! if you’re having trouble finding a concealer, why not switch it up and try this? it’s worth a shot!

prefer a thinner tip? THIS is a good & cheap liner, especially for my doe-eyed girlies! make those eyes pop with thin or thick liner with this !
