- foundation -

foundations that are giving glowy, dewy.. but not sticky or heavy.

its a love or hate foundation. personally, the coverage is great yet thin. it can seperate if you apply over skincare before it dries.

first off, this is solving the whole issue of having to dab your cushion on the back. the disperion is WAYY better than just regular cushion. VERY limited shade range… the ORIGINAL has more though

this foundation is DAMN good. night out, full coverage girlies run to her. no filter needed even after a whole 12 HOURS. 

she's also a little pricey, but every drop is WORTH IT. but go ahead and buy the one with the pump.

this is technically not foundation, but a first-step base product.

i bought this without any expectations, but it creates such a beautiful glow-from-within clean skin vibe. i prefer this to highlighter for casual days. 

this is the first thing i reach for when my skin is in a bad state to be wearing heavy makeup!

i live and breathe this concealer. i use it every single day. it's never cakey unless you use the wrong powder overtop. people complain that it's not too full coverage, but i prefer having control and confidence that i can layer coverage without pill...

as full coverage, this concealer performs amazing. longevity and texture stay easily!!

she is a BANG for your BUCK. its along the top most popular concealers on yesstyle, but i SWEAR this one is better. thin and comfortable, but still high coverage. you can also definitely layer her, but she dries MATTE for longer days… but a tad cakey...

DIVINE. This is your night out bestie! I swear, the coverage on this is INSANE. It's so creamy and luxuorious under the eyes, such a stunning radiant finish as well. I blend this out with a good, damp beauty blender or even my finger! Putting this on...

PERFECTION. the shade of contour is the perfect mix of realistic shadow but not too muddy. the finish is also just beautiful.

 i never liked doing contour because it always made me look dead haha. but this one changed me. HYPED for a reason

i know it's half contour but hear me out. i find these contours to actually pull a little orangey - but the bronzer side is a perfect warm but not orange.

so i actually use the contour side as a base to my eyeshadow, under the bottom lip, and on the tip of the nose. i use as normal bronzer in winter!

Something about these CELERBRITY blushes… UGH. The finish on this is stellar, and a plus is that the packaging is so cute! I usually struggle with blushes looking a little washed out or dry on my skin, and this solved EVERYTHING for me. She is my DON...

this pink givenchy powder is so stunning for natural finished bright undereyes. the finish is just radiant and baby smoothhhh.

definitely has a stronger scent, and you kinda have to work to mix the colors together. but she is picture perfect smooth.

THAT GIRLLLL. i can't even describe this finish. first off, this SETS. but not like, tight matte feeling. this is magic in a bottle. my secret is spraying this before i first set my face with powder, using that time to also blend further.

nothing will ever surpass this setting spray, it is mother.
