Foundation
I live in the tourist trap of central Florida so having a good foundation is imperative for my oily skin and this is one product that holds up!
Dior Backstage Face & Body Foundation - Makeup
This is the only drug store foundation that holds up in a restaurant in the Florida heat! Set it with a good powder and setting spray and you’ll get at least 8 hours of looking great!
L'Oréal - N3 Neutral Light Medium True Match Super-Blendable Foundation
Best high end foundation that’s thin and is skin like. If you want a more natural finish this is the way to go and great for mature skin
Pat McGrath Labs Long-Lasting Foundation - Sephora
I believe in everything Nars but their satin finish foundation was my bible! No longer in stores only on their website 🥺
NARS Foundation Makeup: Liquid, Powder, Matte
Under eye loves
I live n work in a tourist trap town in Florida as a server and when I set my undereye with this it doesn’t move not even on my sweaty 12 hour shift, my whole face will be oily but my under eyes are always on point
I swear by this I’ve been using it for 6 years and never had an issue. Stays put even in the nasty Florida heat!
Under Eye Concealer Makeup
Bronzers
One of the top notch liquid bronzers I’ve owned! The blursh bronzer is the best!

Eyebrows
Ten years strong and still my daily go to for my brows and performs better than any other high end brow pencil! I set with NYX brow glue
NYX Professional Makeup Micro Brow Pencil Vegan Eyebrow Pencil
The only brow gel I found that holds my brows in place in this nasty heat and lasts all day
NYX Professional Makeup The Brow Glue Laminating Setting Gel
Setting sprays
Best drug store brand I’ve found that can hold up to what the Florida heat puts down
Morphe, Original Continuous Setting Mist
Best high end setting spray! If you need that extra super hold spray then this is the one! It’s pricey so I only use it when I have to make sure my face stays on point for more than a few hours!
On 'Til Dawn Mattifying Waterproof Setting Spray - Sephora
Best setting powders
I’ve added a review on my flip to talk about how well this wore during my daughter’s graduation party! Hid pores and fine lines very well and stayed in place all day
Pat McGrath is top tier and very costly however whether large palettes or small palettes each one is the best to blend, by far the most pigmented and worth the investment! I own 2 big ones and guard them with my life LMAO!!
Pat McGrath Labs Eyeshadow Palettes - Sephora
Face primers
Phenomenal for the price point. It has yet to disappoint me!
So Blown Pore-Minimizing & Hydrating Collagen Peptide Primer ...
This is the best budget friendly one I’ve used since ELF putty primer! If you don’t want elf this is your best option
Conceal + Perfect Blur Out Smoothing Primer - Milani Cosmetics
Tried and true but the key is your skin care base and how you set it after your foundation.
