Primers
Your base before your base! First step before foundation. I like to let it sit for a couple of minutes
This primer will have your makeup lasting all day long and Niacinimide brightens skin and prevent signs of aging!
Power Grip Primer + 4% Niacinamide | e.l.f. Cosmetics
This primer will fill in your pores and blur your skin
Poreless Putty Face Primer | e.l.f. Cosmetics
Foundation
This is quite literally the "foundation" to your makeup;) Apply after primer.
The BEST foundation I have ever used hands down. Literally makes you look flawless with a filter!!
#FauxFilter Luminous Matte Foundation - Huda Beauty
Love this foundation it's medium to full coverage and will even out skin tone and feels light on the skin:)
Bounce™ Liquid Whip Long Wear Foundation - Beautyblender
Covers imperfections, evens skin, and feels lightweight
Face Tape™ Foundation | Tarte™ Cosmetics
Concealer
I apply this under my eyes, chin, above my lip, on the bridge and sides of my nose, on my forehead, and above my eyebrows
This one's my favourite for brightening. It's high coverage and isn't drying
SEA power flex concealer - Tarte™ Cosmetics
The best for full glam. Full coverage, covers any darkness/circles, doesn't settle into lines, and stays on all day/night!
Creaseless Concealer - Tarte™ Cosmetics
Contour
Apply in the hollows of the cheeks, across the top of the forehead, sides of the nose, and jawline
This one's amazing!! Very easy to blend, doesn't dry down to fast, and defines your face very well
Sculpt Tape™ Contour | Tarte™ Cosmetics
This one is affordable and also beautiful. Does dry down a little quick so I work in one section at a time, but the result looks the same as an expensive contour wand!
Halo Glow Liquid Contour Wand | e.l.f. Cosmetics
An oldie but a goodie:) Perfect to start with. I solely used this for years before I tried cream contour. Good colour payoff and blends well. Defines cheekbones great
Shade + Light Refillable Face Contour Palette - KVD Beauty
Blush
Apply above the contour and a bit on the nose:)
My absolute favourite blush. Blends well, easy to apply, doesn't look cakey, and really lasts!
Amazonian Clay 12-Hour Blush - Tarte™ Cosmetics
Brows
Use a thin eyebrows brush to apply and clean it up with concealer after
A classic. I don't know about you but I love me a 2016 brow!
DIPBROW® Pomade | Anastasia Beverly Hills
Great to set the pomade or wear on its own for a more natural look
Brow Powder Duo | Anastasia Beverly Hills
Powder
Bake under eyes, sides of nose, under contour, and lightly dust over the rest of the face to set!
Perfect for baking. Clearly I love Huda beauty but her products really are the best! It sets, brightens, blurs, and perfects. *stay away if you dislike floral fragrances*
HUDA BEAUTY Easy Bake Setting Powder Full
A medium to full coverage powder foundation! It is VERY powdery so make sure to tap off the excess!
Amazonian clay gem powder foundation - Tarte™ Cosmetics
Eyeliner
I love doing wings with liquid liner
Affordable, easy to use, ultra black, dries matte, and lasts all day!
Liquid Eyeliner & Eyeliner Pencils | e.l.f. Cosmetics
A nude liner for the waterline that really makes you look like you actually got some sleep;)
Fake Awake Eye Highlight - Tarte™ Cosmetics
Lashes
I apply a bit of mascara before my lashes and I do this while I let the bake sit
Chemise is my favourite style. Makes the eyes look big and sultry.
KISS LC TRIPLE PUSHUP XL CHEMISE
A classic
Ardell Wispies
Lipstick
This is my very last step! My favs are liquid lipstick and I've been loving topping it with these plumping balms!
Adds a nice wash of colour and a cooling sensation that subtly plumps your lips
Maracuja Juicy Lip Plump | Tarte™ Cosmetics
I love topping this with a balm
Maracuja Juicy Liquid Lip | Tarte™ Cosmetics
