THE BEST sunscreen out there, amazing for all types of skin.
the perfect texture, it is like a very light moisturiser that leaves zero white cast, making your skin have a healthy glow, all while providing maximum protection from the sun.
Beauty of Joseon Sunscreens
the cream i use on a daily basis whether or not i put makeup on that day.
especially great for dry/combination skin with slight stickiness great for a makeup base without it feeling heavy.
very subtle fragrance, making it feel very fresh and not over...
Neutrogena Hydro Boost Water Gel Moisturizer
base
as someone who doesn’t like using foundation, this is the perfect product especially for days when my skin is flaring up.
amazing for summer, as the texture is like a moisturiser while still providing the perfect amount of coverage.
Eaze Drop Blurring Skin Tint — 20 | Fenty Beauty
the only concealer i have found so far that doesn’t crease, is buildable, doesn’t dry your skin out and doesn’t change colour, all whilst still being affordable.
Fit Me® Oil-Free Concealer - Maybelline
affordable, natural, creamy, easily blend-able— brings your skin back to life.
especially amazing for summer and it will last you a lifetime!
NYX Wonder™ Contour & Highlighter Stick
a LITTLE bit on the pricier side, but i promise that you won’t find a cream/putty blush that blends so effortlessly, looks so natural, is build-able, and has the best shade range.
a tiny bit goes a long way, trust me!
Blush - Shiseido
probably the most underrated highlighter out there.
perfect shade, super affordable, amazing glow and will last you forever. no matter what else i try i always come back to it.
MegaGlo™ Highlighting Powder – wet n wild Beauty
eyes
i have had this palette for ages and i carry it everywhere with me.
the shades are perfect and pigmented, i use it for my eyeliner, contour and even highlighter.
Multi-Use Makeup & Eye Palettes - NYX Cosmetics
the only drugstore mascara actually worth the hype.
doesn’t weigh your lashes down, doesn’t make them clumpy and adds a lot of length.
very build-able and doesn’t smudge easily even if it’s not waterproof.
