Dior blushed and palettes work so well in the sense that you can use them for mostly any part of your makeup routine top bottom middle. You can use them with a dusting and you can use them with a liquid and they always work well.

Milano blushes are so nice in my makeup routine! They really help to brighten my face and especially make me look more human after a very matte finish 🩷🩷
Blush Products & Powders
SHEGLAM did their big one on this blush,
It has such a nice pigment turn out and the little plush dropper is so soft on your skin, you don’t even need to use a whole dot you can even make it small. Very versatile
SHEGLAM liquid soft matte blush
Primer 💕.
Primer that keeps your makeup ON! 💕💕
One of the best mattifying primers in Sephora as of currently! Danessa Myricks is one of my favorites and as an oily skin girly who literally swims in oil every day from just going to school and coming home, this makes your makeup zilch!
Yummy Skin Water Powder Serum
Elf grippppuhhhhh😩😩😩😩 I’m sorry but this primer! When I say it sticks?! It sticks! One of the stickiest primers I’ve ever used keeps my makeup nice and set in so that it doesn’t get peely from other products!

Mascara 💕
To doll up your lashes!
One of my favorite mascaras that really accentuate the look of wispy eyelashes that aren’t thick of enough! Helps to lengthen my lashes but one thing is that it doesn’t dry quick enough especially if you’re not frugal
FANTASIZE Ultimate Lifting & Lengthening Mascara
By god this mascara is so damn good! Now I know I may be a little young but too faced reined supreme early 2010’s everyone had something from too faced and I was THERE with this specific mascara, it’s so nice on my lashes and let’s be honest I still ...
Mascara - Cruelty-Free | Better Than Sex & Damn Girl!

Heroine Make Long & Curl Mascara Advanced Film - KISSME USA
The Lancôme line of mascara is indeed a cult classic! Everytime ive used mascara from this brand it somehow is better than any other mascara I’ve used, that price point though 😐 but it’s worth it! All makeup is an investment on your looks!
This mascara has helped me in many pinches as it’s one of the more cheaper alternatives to the mascara I’ve out in the list besides the heroine mascara. It does everything you need a backup mascara to do without fearing of losing your mascara in a cl...

This lipstick is so silky and basically satin on your lips! It keeps your lips moisturize underneath and doesn’t cause that crackle that traditional lipsticks from anywhere may cause, it’s a well worth lipstick to buy!
NARS lipsticks will always be something I mention, I know the raunchy names will turn you away but COME BACK! NARS lipsticks never failed me in the moisture and hydration department of lip products, it’s not the best option but it’s definitely better...

PRADA ME DARLING 💕💕💕
