Tinted moisturizer and primers for a natural look
I used to love the milk makeup sunshine tint. They no longer carry it in their line. This has been my newest substitute! A good amount of coverage with good skincare ingredients.
Saie Slip Tint | Clean Tinted Moisturizer | Non-Toxic Beauty
My go to concealer. Good coverage without looking too cakey.
Boi-ing Cakeless Concealer
My favorite primer. Provides a nice blurring effect to pores. A very neutral texture. Doesn't make me feel greasy or dry.
The POREfessional Pore Minimizing Primer - Benefit ...
Smashbox is known for their primers for a reason. Their Photo Finish is a classic. I refer their color correcting version as a great foundation to cancel out underlying redness.
Photo Finish Correct Anti-Redness Primer - Smashbox
cheeks
I'm obsessed with a good blush. Truly my makeup buying vice.
The best lip tint. A classic for a reason. Great every day flush of color on lips, cheeks, and eyelids for a monochrome look
Benetint Cheek & Lip Stain
the Milk makeup blush in Perk was the first cream blush that I tried back in the day. It's a beatiful coral shade that I wouldn't normally have chosen for myself.
Lip + Cheek Cream Blush Stick - MILK MAKEUP
The classic Benetint is still my go to, but I also really love this pink Play Tint. It's described as “pink lemonade” shade and is a nice light flush.
Benetint Play Tint Rose Lip & Cheek Cosmetics
A nice everyday bronzer. As a pale girl, I go for Laguna 01
NARS Laguna Talc-Free Bronzer Powder
eyes
Simple, fresh, understated
My favorite drug store mascara. Really long lasting without a ton of flaking or rub off on the under eyes. Comes in a variety of colors.
Maybelline Lash Sensational Sky High Mascara
I don't wear highlighter as often as I once did in the 2010s (the youtuber glam heyday). I like to use this highlighter across my eyelids as an eyeshadow alternative.
Dandelion Twinkle Shimmer Finish Powder Highlighter
I love these eyeshadow sticks. There's a super wide range of shades. A nice base for powder eyeshadows, but typically I'll wear one alone.
Laura Mercier Caviar Stick Cream Eyeshadow
lips
I usually uses my cheek tints on my lips for a unified monochrome look. If I'm going for something seperate, these are my favorites.
A new Christmas gift. Super pretty shade and a soft buttery lipstick. Not drying at all.
Clinique Pop™ Longwear Lipstick
This lip tint has a super soft, plush texture. It has a great shade range to try.
Plushtint Moisturizing Matte Lip Tint - benefit
This lipstick went super viral for a reason. Smooth application. The type of color that's flattering on everybody. Doesn't last a super long time, but otherwise a great option.
CLINIQUE Almost Lipstick in Black and Pink Honey
I love the MAC lipstik shade Twig, which was unfortunately discontinued. It looks like it's been replaced with this Twig Twist which is a close second!
