A HERO product for a reason. This is my everyday foundation. For those of us with sensitive or dry skin wanting a natural skin finish with a perfect glow, she is THAT girl.
Luminous Silk Perfect Natural Glow Foundation - Armani Beauty
I've tried so many concealers and while there are wonderful ones out there, Ilia's (like so many other Ilia products) has my heart. It's not drying, doesn't produce a thick or cakey finish and the shades available I find to be very versatile.
True Skin Serum Concealer - ILIA Beauty
An industry preferred powder that doesn't dry my face's appearance or crease? Yes, this is the one.
Laura Mercier Translucent Loose Setting Powder
I actually do keep this in my pocket or purse. It's definitely a tad more sheer than other blushes but fantastic for layering and gives a natural flush which I love.

When I say a little goes a long way I mean it - this product will last you until the apocalypse. Only warning is to blend quickly. I use this under or over a setting powder and love the results but I do recommend blending out a section at a time as i...

the peptide lip tints | rhode skin
As someone who used the Laneige overnight lip mask for YEARS, I can honestly say this is the perfect dupe with a cleaner formula. The flavors offered are more limited but I always used the Laneige vanilla or something similar anyways so this is perfe...

In Ilia we trust - I will say I don't think it lasts as long but I do continuously rebuy it because it genuinely hydrates my lips and we love a clean brand.

Eyes & Brows
This is my all-time favorite mascara. It's non-irritating and non-clumping and completely layerable. It strengthes the way a lash serum would and never flakes.
