I've been using Morphe eyeshadow palettes for years and this one is great. I love the colors on this one, there's 35 shades, mostly orange and brown colors--matte and glitter. It's also very affordable for 35 shades that are highly pigmented and work...
I love Morphe eyeshadow and the color pink, so this is the perfect pallet. It has light pink, dark pink, and some brown. This would make multiple cute eye looks!

I swear by this eyebrow gel. It holds your brows down and doesn't flake off. There's a clear version or there's multiple shades of brown to choose from. I have both and love both of them!
Medium Brown The Brow Glue Laminating Setting Gel - NYX Professional Makeup | Ulta Beauty

Anastasia Beverly Hills has many great products, including this clear brow gel. It holds your brows down, but doesn’t flake off.
I really like this Clinique High Impact Mascara because it doesn’t make my lashes clump together. It goes on very nice and makes my lashes look very long.

If you just want to add a little bit of color to your face, then this is perfect. I like to use this when I don't want a full face of makeup, but still want a little. It's also a moisturizer and has SPF to protect your face from the sun.
I love this concealer so much. It's my go to, it goes on so nicely and blends out just as nice. It gives nice coverage, but doesn't look cakey either, I love it.
I love this concealer, it's applicator, and it's price! I like the applicator because it doesn't put too much on and you can easily just tap it on, I really like it.

This is another great, affordable concealer by Maybelinne. It's part of their “Fit Me” line, which I love, so I had to include it. I even have a darker shade of this and use it as a warm contour!
