This has been on my wishlist forever!!! The product size is actually smaller than I expected, but foundations tend to take forever for me to finish so I think it’s an appropriate size. I got the shade 2, which looks a touch light for summer but the u...

I bought this in the shade Black Cherry - I saw another content creator wear it on her story and thought it was the PRETTIEST shade. I’ve been loving lip tints, and I love a red lip so I’m super excited to make this my summer lippie! I’ve used the Ku...

I couldn’t resist trying out this viral blush! I bought the shade “fresh” and I’m excited to use it on my blushy days when I’m wearing a tinted moisturizer instead of foundation. The texture is so fun and I love that it’s a bit of a stain.

I’ve been loving gloss sticks lately and this one from Fenty with the high shimmer was sooo pretty! I bought the shade “Fu$$y” and it’s a gorgeous light plum shimmer. It has the same fragrance and flavoring as the original Fenty glosses, and I find i...

I love this so much!! After reading reviews, I was worried it would be too sunscreen smelling and not the banana pudding sweet scent I was looking for, but it’s actually a happy medium between those two! The mist is super fine and dispenses a lot in ...

I’ve been eyeing these ever since I realized how much I love the squirt gloss from MAC - they’re VERY similar! The shade “rosewood glow” is the perfect everyday neutral pink, and I think it would compliment a lot of skin tones. The formula is hydrati...

I love a good lip pencil, and this one in the shade “rich mauve” is the perfect everyday neutral. I received this as part of my birthday reward from Sephora, so it’s not necessarily a product I would normally seek out, but if you’re looking for a new...

I’ve been wanting to try a number of NYX products to replace some more expensive similar products - this one is very similar to Benefit’s brow products and I like that the rich auburn shade is similar to 3.75 from Benefit. The wand is a bit longer so...

This is my new go to lippie!! I love a glossy lip stain and this product is a serum like texture with beautiful colors! I went with Bubblegum Burst and I might have to grab another shade soon because this is such an amazing lip product. This is a sta...

I hadn’t picked this up when it first launched and was definitely looking for a lighter weight concealer now that my skin has calmed down and I’m more comfortable going out with just light concealer! This is perfect for that and I found the container...

A mini - this was my Ulta birthday gift choice! I love Bare Minerals complexion products - I’m working on switching all my makeup to clean beauty by the end of the year, and Bare Minerals is an amazing clean beauty brand! This powder is finely milled...
