Base Prep

Because great makeup starts with hydrated, smooth skin. This is my affordable prep essential that make your base go on like a dream.

This primer grips foundation so well, it gives that tacky, dewy finish that helps makeup last all day. It’s a total dupe for high-end primers. I am almost out of this!! It is seriously so good.

e.l.f Power Grip Primer

Foundation

A good foundation should never feel heavy or cakey. It should feel lightweight, even, and buildable. That's what this is :)

It melts into your skin effortlessly and comes in a wide shade range. The finish looks like actual skin, and is never flat or chalky. My sisters use this as well! Drugstore foundations are finnicky, so it is nice to know there is a genuinely good opt...

L'Oréal True Match Super-Blendable Foundation

Concealer

Because we all need a little help under the eyes sometimes, this will help brighten, lift, and conceal, not only your undereyes, but any blemishes as well.

I LOVE THIS. I used this every single morning in my junior year and recently bought it again. The sponge tip makes it super quick to apply, and it gives a smooth, natural finish that doesn’t crease on me. Honestly THE best drugstore concealer. Other ...

Maybelline Instant Age Rewind Eraser Concealer

Powder

Set it and forget it, miss girlll. This powder will control shine without killing your glow.

My sister gave me this a little over a year ago, and it is my tried-and-true. This one gives that blurred, airbrushed effect without looking dry. It’s a viral favorite for a reason. I personally like dewy makeup, but hate how powders usually take awa...

e.l.f. Halo Glow Setting Powder

Bronzer

To bring a touch of warmth and life back to my face, I go for something smooth and blendable.

Smells like a tropical vacation and blends like butter. The undertone is perfect since it isn't too orange, and isn't too cool. I really like how this looks.

Physicians Formula Matte Monoi Butter Bronzer

Blush

I like to add some color to my cheeks for that healthy, alive look. I mean, you could serve corpse-chic if you want, but I'm not riding that wave, miss mama.

Truly the #1 affordable powder blush on the market as of 2025. The glow from this blush is unmatched. It gives a soft shimmer that makes your skin look radiant and fresh. LOVE MILANI <3

Milani Baked Radiant Powder Blush

Highlighter

For a glow that catches the light just right. Not glittery, just glossy.

Amazing highlighter! It is super affordable and looks high-end. The texture is buttery, and the glow is smooth, not chunky and it doesn't pill/peel (which is a thing I have genuinely had happen with other highlighters…)

Wet n Wild MegaGlo Highlighting Powder

Brows

Shape and define your brows on a BUDGETTT

This has a fine tine tip, perfect pigment, and is really easy to control. It’s a dupe for the Anastasia Brow Wiz for under $10. I love me a good dupe that is almost, if not, just as good as the product it is replicating.

NYX Micro Brow Pencil

Eyeshadow

Whether you’re doing neutral glam or a simple shimmer lid, this palette got you COVERED.

These are soft, blendable shadows that perform like high-end ones. The shades are perfect for everyday looks. I love a good, neutral palette. Every girl needs something like this in her makeup drawer/bag.

ColourPop That's Taupe Pressed Powder Palette

Mascara

Lift, length, and volume. The trifecta for lashes that look fake but are ALL REAL BABY.

The curved wand separates and lengthens every lash without clumping. It’s been a cult favorite for years. It is popular for a reason, ladies. Every single woman in my life owns this, like for real.

Maybelline Lash Sensational Mascara

Lip Product

The finishing touch. Something long-lasting that serves cvnt and doesn't come off after one sip of your drink! Actually lasts all day!

This feels like a dream on the lips and adds the perfect amount of shine. It’s universally flattering and smells amazing. NYX, my beloved <3 Anything they make is good. Like seriously. I love how this one doesn't have that gross, sticky, stringy film. We love a gloss, not literal school glue on our lips <3 Shoutout to NYX!
