Base

My base for makeup, BUT skin prep is the most important part!

I do get oily around my nose/ t-zone area and this definitely helps control it! It's a nice sheer/ matte feeling texture which I love. It's also not heavy at all.

I have both the universal shade and shade 8.5. Definitely gives ‘skin but better!’
Yummy Skin Blurring Balm Powder

I love these concealers (both the We’re Even & Pro Filt’r), not only because it conceals, but also brightens. I have slight dark circles under my eyes and it does the job of concealing it!

I love this setting spray because it does the job of blurring the skin! We all know we want that pore-less look and this does the jobbbbb.

A little goes a long way with this powder! I use it to set my concealer, brighten my under eye and create that sharp cheekbone look and when I say it works like a charm, I love!

I fear I may have bronzer blindness, but THIS bronzer is the perfect shade for me to where when I put it on, I instantly see it. It's also buildable and definitely adds color/ dimension to my face.

The PINKEST blush I own. Makes me feel super cute and girly. I love this trio and the fact that it is buildable and bendable. A little goes a long way because the pigment is THERE!!!!

My favorite blush!!! I just gravitate towards this constantly as it fits my skin tone so well, blends beautifully and is just such a pretty blush color.

I love this shade of blush because it matches my skin tone so when I don't want to do too much and give natural/ just enough, this is the one I reach for.

My favorite lip tint from rhode. Can wear it with a lip liner or alone and it still eats!!! The perfect sheer brown color.

I have both Chestnut & Nightmoth, but I CONSTANTLY grab chestnut. It can be paired with any gloss & lipstick & it’ll be a perfect match. LOVE it downnnn.

At first, I was not a fan of how this pink color went with my natural lip color, but I paired it with the MAC chestnut lip liner is EVERYTHING. My current favorite lip combo.

Makeup Remover

I am so obsessed with this cleanser! Not only is it very gentle and has no fragrance, but it actually does a great job of removing the makeup. I lean towards cleansing balms because I do not like wipes pulling at my skin and rubbing against it.

I have the “face” and “bronzer” brushes and love them both! They not only do the job, but I love that they're pink (favorite color) but also I can easily tell when they have product on it/ how much!
