SO SO good. It's lightweight, good for those who don't need/want super full coverage. Doesn't look cakey, and still gives you a beautiful natural skin look! Even wore it on my wedding day. Wears well throughout the day!
Revolution Skin Silk Radiant Satin Serum Foundation

Without a doubt, my favorite concealer. Everything I have ever used creases so badly under my eyes, adds texture and makes my skin look dry. This stuff blends flawlessly.

Cost is a little more, but this so good!! I do find it a little harder to blend in, but it looks SO GOOD on my skin in the end! I find I need to use a good moisturizing base first.

If you're a tinted sunscreen girl, this stuff is great. It's very very sheer, but adds a good base of color! Feels good, soaks in, and prevents all the sunburns!

My favorite lip oil! Love the Candy Coded and Crystal Baller colors!! I don't feel like they shimmer as much as the tiktok videos make them seem, but they are very sparkly, feel hydrating, and I love them! Perfect for just a gloss, or over lipstick f...

Love love love! Best bang for the buck, this tub is huge. Biggest down side is that its a tub, so you either need a little spatula or you're just sticking your fingers in. Sits well under my makeup, and also its a great moisturizer before bed!

This item is pricey, I got it through Ipsy. It's SO good. It's a bit more of a mask. After applying it and it dries, it kind of pills off, so I like to keep it on overnight wash my face in the morning! Helps my makeup sit better under my eyes, it loo...

Best toner around 😍 I apply with a cotton pad, which helps with slight exfoliation. This stuff feels so refreshing, cleanses my face, and is a perfect start to my skincare!

This is meant to be the last step in your nightly skincare routine, and it's by far the best step! It has such a good feel, its lightweight, refreshing.

Got this through Ipsy, and it actually lives up to its hype. It feels a little more "silicone-y" but it works surprisingly well under makeup!
