The BEST drugstore mascara: clean, separated lashes + volume!
Covergirl Lash Blast Volume Mascara
My go-to lash curler—always curl before mascara for best results!
Revlon Eyelash Curlers
This 18h waterproof eye pencil glides on with a smooth, gel-like feel. I switch up shades with my OOTD, but my go-tos are 01 Black Fever, 02 But First Espresso, and 12 I Have a Green.
Essence Long Lasting Eye Pencil
This eyeliner stick comes in so many shades, but Burnt Sienna is my fave! I love layering it on my waterline for a soft, smoky effect.
NYX Epic Wear Long Lasting Eyeliner Pencil
The BEST mascara—waterproofed version!
Covergirl Lash Blast Volume WATERPROOF Mascara
Waterproof liquid eyeliner with a user-friendly applicator for precise lines!
NYX Epic Wear Eye & Body Liquid Liner
A brown eyeshadow is all I need to feel pulled together! You can blend this into the crease or use it as an all-over shade. I love how versatile a cream brown eyeshadow can be!
e.l.f. No Budge Cream Eyeshadow Sand Dune
Face
Love this for a smooth, shine-free look! Perfect on its own or layered over foundation/concealer.
Covergirl Clean Fresh Pressed Powder
This blush gives a perfectly buildable look with zero harsh lines. The formula is so smooth, blending is a breeze!
Milani Blush Products & Powders
A great highly pigmented blush option! The color payoff with one brush swipe of this blush is truly impressive. No buildable coverage needed here, just brush it on and blend it out!
TruBlend So Flushed High Pigment Blush & Bronzer
The best BeautyBlender makeup sponge dupe! The orange RT sponge is JUST as soft and squishy as the pink BeautyBlender at a fraction of the cost.
RealTechniques Makeup Sponge
This brush is a lifesaver for travel or when you’re in a pinch! Fluffy side = powders & blush, angled side = concealers & cream bronzer.
