Products used on my face!
I don’t use foundation often, but when I do, I really like this as my go-to! It’s lightweight, blends with my other products well, and doesn’t make my skin look patchy (coming from someone with eczema!) I just use a few dots across my face and blend ...
Liquid Touch Weightless Foundation
Repeat after me: “A little goes a long way.”
Now say it again and again until you believe yourself because one teeny tiny dot of this is PLENTY! It is SO pigmented!! The color range is amazing! You can use this in tandem with the cream or powder blu...
Soft Pinch Liquid Blush
This is part of my prep stage! I apply this first, then apply Vaseline to my lips! You can do your hair while you wait for it to dry a bit, but I usually wait a couple minutes and then start my makeup. It’s nice to have this on to hydrate your skin f...
The Dewy Skin Cream Plumping & Hydrating Refillable Moisturizer
I’m still trying to find a primer that I’ll use permanently but for now, this is what I use! It is fairly cheap, and it is also hydrating - which my dry skin needs!!
e.l.f. Hydrating Face Primer Large - 1.01 fl oz
Everyone needs a little sparkle!! I still haven’t found a highlighter that I love, but I have been using this one for a few years now (take that lightly. I do my makeup maybe 5 times a year, if that). I do like it, and I mix the colors because I have...
Rose Glow Stellar Lights Highlighter Palette - Milani | Ulta Beauty
In the spirit of transparency, I’m still not entirely sure if I’m using the right shade, or enough of it. But I love the way this blends in to my base! It really is the perfect formula!!
Warm Wishes Effortless Cream Bronzer Stick
I honestly don’t think I’ve ever used anything but this, so at least I know it works! I like how it feels on my face, and it’s cheap! That’s honestly all I need from a setting spray so I think it does its job well!
e.l.f. Stay All Night Micro-Fine Setting Mist - Light Green - 2.7 fl oz
I usually lack the energy to do a full face… that’s where this comes in! It hides any blemishes and redness and melts in to my skin seamlessly! It doesn’t feel gross or heavy on my skin at all! I add a few dots, usually on problem spots from acne, as...
Liquid Touch Brightening Concealer - Rare Beauty by ...
Lips
Products I use on my lips!
This is part of my prep stage! I let this sit on my lips while I do everything else. I wipe it off (if needed) before I apply lipstick.
Vaseline Lip Therapy Advanced Healing Moisturizer - 0.7oz/2ct
This is my go-to lip! It’s the perfect nude for my skin tone and the formula is smooth and doesn’t crack on my lips. I love it!
Mini Pillow Talk Lipstick & Liner Set
This is another one of my favorite lip products! I use the shade “Humble” paired with the lipstick in the same shade! It lasts ALL DAY LONG!
Kind Words Lip Liner
I use the shade “Humble” paired with the lip liner of the same name! Love the subtle look. It’s perfect for any makeup style!
Kind Words Matte Lipstick
Eyes
Products I use on my eyes!
I’m very new to eyeshadow looks so a more neutral shade range felt like the way to go… this one is perfect! I feel like I know what I’m doing when I use these! I recommend looking up tutorials on YouTube for a neutral shadow look! I always add a litt...
Nude Mood Pressed Powder Palette - ColourPop | Ulta Beauty
I have used this a few times since purchasing it for the thin wand and I really like it! I’m so bad at applying mascara, my lashes don’t curl, and it just feels like it always ends so messy. This is easy to apply and I like the way it looks! You can ...
Maybelline Lash Discovery Mini-Brush Defining & Lengthening Mascara - Very Black Waterproof - 0.16 fl oz
Sometimes I use this if I’m feeling lazy, but still want something on my eyes! It’s super quick and easy!! Just a few swipes and you’re good to go! You can layer them for a more complex look, but I love anything simple so these are a personal favorit...
