These are my go-to cruelty-free makeup products!I use all of this as a ✨woman of a certain age✨ with rosacea and a very pale complexion. All of these products have worked well for me - some of them I've used for years and repurchased several times! ℹ...

Eyes
My favorite eye shadows, liners, mascara, primers!
One of THE best mascaras I’ve ever used. This Rare Beauty mascara doesn’t flake off at all, no matter how many hours I wear it. Doesn’t sweat off either!
I love my Tarte pallets. They colors blend nicely and I've always been happy with the quality and how pigmented they are. So many beautiful shades, too!
Tarte Eyshadows
Urban Decay makes such great eye shadows with incredible colors. I always come back to my UD pallets.
Urban Decay Eyshadows
I've never been able to master liquid liner, I'm still using my UD pencil to do smudged liner and I'm never gonna stop.
Urban Decay 24/7 Eyeliner
Face
The lightest skin tints, tinted SPFs, concealers, powders that I use!
What an incredible product! Glossier's perfecting tint is SUPER lightweight and sheer, it does exactly what the name says - perfects and tints. It’s the best for no-makeup makeup. I wear shade G12 and I occasionally mix it with G11.
Glossier Perfecting Skin Tint - Shade G12
The color match is perfect perfect and the finish is so natural. Just make sure you've exfoliated first for a smooth finish!
A great tinted SPF! The shade self adjusts, so if you’re a pale girly who can’t wear most tinted SPF this is a great choice!
Colorescience Face Shield Flex SPF 50 - Fair
I'm really impressed by this powder! A little goes a LONG way. I use a Beauty Blender puff to pick up the product, tap it off, then apply gently and it work so well without making me feel powdery. Also worth noting most powders are too dark for me bu...
Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Flawless Finish Powder - 1 Fair
The only concealer I own. I use this when I need a little more coverage than a skin tint and it blends so beautifully and wears for hours.
Tarte Shape Tape Ultra Creamy Concealer - 8B Porcelain Beige
I quite liked this, despite the smell. Hear me out, I know everyone complains about the smell of this, and it is bad, but it doesn't last. I'm SUPER sensitive to smells, and if I can handle this anyone can. It also gives pretty good coverage, more li...
Ilia Super Serum Skin Tint SPF 40 - 0.5 Skye
Contour & highlight
Shaping the face but still light enough to look natural
Fenty Beauty has done it again. Perfect cool tone pale-girl friendly contour. This is easy to blend and build.
Fenty Beauty Match Stix Contour Skinstick - Amber
It's a pretty dramatic highlight, but I LOVE that's not tinted/pigmented. I'm pale enough that even a champagne colored highlight is too dark for me, so Diamond Bomb is my GOAT.
Fenty Beauty Diamond Bomb All-Over Highlighter - How Many Carats?!
This is a good contour and highlight pallet for pale skin. I love the cooler tones.
KVD Shade + Light Refillable Powder Face Contour Palette
Cheeks
Blushy blushy! Pretty in pink blush colors
Candy Clouds is a true cool pink blush. VERY PIGMENTED, so start with a little and build up!
Too Faced Cloud Crush Blurring Blush - Candy Clouds
Beautiful colors, easy application. I love using a cream blush underneath my skin tint for a really subtle blush.
Fenty Beauty Cheeks Out Freestyle Cream Blush
Brows
Just the basics for a sharp brow
I always reach for this one when it time for my brows. Smooth application, easy to blend, great color, and stays put all day.
Rare Beauty Brow Harmony Precision Pencil
I love this clear brow gel. It keeps my brows in place and the product itself seems to last forever!
Anastasia Beverly Hills Clear Brow Gel
Lips
I love neutral and cool tone pinks
I was so exited for this to be available in a fair skin version! I really like the original Pillow Talk, but this is a much more flattering shade on my skin tone!
Charlotte Tilbury Pillow Talk Fair Lipstick
The only lip product I need in the summer! (and the winter, a lot of the time) The tint is PERFECT. I love that it's a stick rather than a gloss so my lips are never sticky. I ALWAYS have this in my bag. They make an untinted version as well!
Coola Tinted Liplux Lip Balm Sunscreen
Beautiful colors and smooth application.
Urban Decay 24/7 Lip Liner
Spelman Girl is the PERFECT pink. The Lip Bar has so many beautiful shades!
The Lip Bar HBCU Gloss Collection
Lucite (peony pink) is the perfect sheer pink shade!
Glossier Ultralip High Shine Lipstick with Hyaluronic Acid - Lucite
The shade Like (light cool pink) looks really dark in photos but it’s so sheer it gives the perfect amount of pink!
