Makeup recs - from a cosplayer
16
items Products I use for in/out of cosplay! So many of these are holy grail products I've used for YEARS. Cover photos are of me using at least a good chunk of these products at any given time :)
Such amazing coverage!! My mom is in her 60s and it laid so beautifully on her face and lasted all day in Florida heat (she doesn't use setting sprays or primers ever)
Double Wear Stay-in-Place Foundation
Perfect for juicy lips with a pop of color. Cosplay - really good for adding some color back after tons of foundation/concealer
Glow Reviver Tinted Lip Oil
Everyone is talking about this for GOOD REASON. It stays really nicely and wears off very naturally. I use P-INKED because it's my personal "my lips but better" shade and I'm so excited to introduce it into my female cosplays
Lip Liner STAY-N® - Peel-off Lip Liner Stain
Loml bronzer. Goes on so smoothly and blends amazingly. I've gone through 3 of these already.
Murumuru Butter Bronzer
MY GO TO BASE !!! I used to have issues with my makeup not wanting to stick to my nose and cheeks but I've never had a product disagree with this primer. AND IT HOLDS. I have to fight for my life to take off my makeup even after a con day.
Power Grip Primer
MY SHAYLA. This has been part of my collection since the product first launched around 2016-2018. My perfect "my lips but better" shade. I use it and diffuse it extra for my male cosplays to bring color back. So natural and wears off just the same. I...
Shop Zuma - Warm Nude | Diffused Matte Lipstick
UGH SO GOOD. Perfect for highlighting and contouring. Blends so nicely. I need to buy a new tube mine is on its last legs
HD Pro.Conceal
I bought into the hype about it and YES. 100% worth the hype. A little goes a LOOONG way. Blends so beautifully. I use it for all of my cosplays.
SHEGLAM Color Bloom Liquid Blush Matte
I use these for ALL of my fem cosplays! Looks so nice without feeling or looking super heavy! They hold up pretty well for multiple uses too (coming from a broke girl who doesn't buy lashes often)
KISS So Wispy Lash Multipack - Pixie
I caved when it was viral years ago and it has not left my makeup bag once. ADORE this especially layered on top of creams. Layers so beautifully but can be applied for a more sheer finish with the perfect amount of glow for anyone
Baked Blush - Luminoso
ADORE for cosplay. So much coverage and a little goes a LONG way. I usually mix this with the wet n wild foundation on this list (hopefully if it's not discontinued) but it works really nicely on my own if it matches my shade. It photographs super ni...
Can't Stop Won't Stop Coverage Foundation | NYX Professional
I have had this in an out of my collection since high school and it's definitely amazing. It mixes with other foundations well, but sometimes can be finnicky with mixing products (base/powder). Once you find your groove with it though it's AMAZING.
Photo Focus™ Foundation- MATTE
MY SHAYLAAAA. Gives SO MUCH length without being clumpy. Separates the lashes so nicely. I pair this all the time with the roller lash, but it is so wonderful on its own. I've been ride or die with this for at least 10 years now🤞🏼
The Colossal® Cat Eyes Washable Mascara
Absolutely LOVE this especially to blend falsies. I use this on top of my Maybelline Cat Eye mascara for some extra volume and WHEEEWWW
Roller Lash Curling Mascara
My ride or die highlighter. Don't need to wet it for an amazing glow but if you wet your brush... WHEEEW
Milani Strobelight Instant Glow Powder Highlighter
A classic. I can't live without this thing. I've tried other sponges and I never get the same effect that I do with this.
