Face
Affordable and amazing! Definitely lives up to the hype, i like the medium coverage and with the perfect amount of glow. lasts all day, especially if i use the elf setting spray after my makeup is done!
Halo Glow Liquid Filter Complexion Booster
I like the way this blush goes on with my other makeup, this brand is a great affordable option but still good quality! This one specifically in “Wild Rose” color is my fav, but all depends on individual skin tone and preference😊
Milani Rose Powder Blush Wild Rose 13 - 0.6oz
wow I’m sure we’ve all heard of this guy, but it’s cause it’s just that good. it’s super sticky and helps the makeup stay on all day. i feel like the bottle lasts decently long for just $10!
Power Grip Primer | Sticky Gel + Hyaluronic Acid
This one I actually love so much, I use shade 4! To be honest I don’t use the highlight part as often as the contour side but that’s just cause I prefer a powder highlight. But honestly it’s lasted me so long and blends in great.
NYX Wonder Stick Highlight & Contour
I don’t use this all the time, but for the days when the under eyes are a lil dark, this works so good! I love it and a little bit goes a long way!
NYX PROFESSIONAL MAKEUP Pro Fix Stick Correcting
This pairs perfectly with the power-grip primer, I love the dewy look it leaves when I spray. I like to do my liquid/cream makeup first, spray this, then do powders, then spray again - my makeup lasts all day!
Power Grip Dewy Setting Spray | Long-Lasting & Hydrating
Brows
This is what I use every day to fill in my brows and for how small the container is, it has lasted me months, if not over a year now. I use the shade espresso, my hair is a very very dark brown!
Lock On Liner & Brow Cream
Works so good to keep my eyebrows in place all day and super affordable! Easy to use with e.l.f. spoolie applicator (also cheap!)
e.l.f. Brow Lift - Clear Eyebrow Gel
I keep this in my car/purse for touching up if needed! Don’t love for a daily but it’s good for a quick fix!
e.l.f. Instant Lift Brow Pencil, Dual-Sided, Deep Brown | Retractable Precision-Tip Brow Pencil with Grooming Spoolie for Buildable Natural-Looking Color, Vegan & Cruelty-Free
Eyes
These have been my favorite clusters I have used, I like a darker/fuller look so I use these fluffy ones. For a more natural look, get the wispy ones!
PHKERATA Fluffy Lash Clusters Wispy Eyelash ...
By far my most repurchased thing ever, I love this lash glue. Lasts me 5-10 days with the clusters.
B&Q Lash Bond & Seal Waterproof Lash Glue 2PCS
Super basic eyeshadow palette, but works so well. I like a natural look most of the time. This one has good shades for simple or smokey eyes, and I like that there are some shimmers as well!
Maybelline The Nudes Eyeshadow Palette, 12 Shades
Lips
I loveee the vanilla frosting one it smells so yummy and these are super moisturizing. They’re pretty small but it honestly lasts a decent amount of time!
Squeeze Me Glow Moisturizing Lip Balm
Loveee this for the summer! My favorite color is the Sunset Cove. It’s a slight tint but not too much!
Sun Bum SPF 30 Coconut Sunscreen Lip Balm, Sunset Cove Tinted - 0.5 oz
This is what I use when I’m going out or when I want a noticeable difference in color on my lips, I use either “Jelly Filled” or “Juicy Jelly”
