The first thing I always put on my face is a milky hydrating toner. The Ilia base face milk is amazing and looks so good under makeup. One of the best I've tried.

The Glow Recipe Watermelon Moisturizer is my holy grail for under my makeup AND for my skincare. This is the key to a glowy look for me, and paired with the Ilia, there is no need for a primer; it's that good!

I have stubborn and thick brows, and nothing compares to the Elf Brow Lift. I've tried other drugstore and high-end options, and this is the one that holds my brows in place all day. I recommend this duo because you get the Elf Brow Lift and the spoo...
Brow Lift Duo
The Charlotte Tilbury Hollywood Flawless Filter is my favorite foundation/skin tint. It is light coverage, so It leaves no cakey spots on the skin and leaves your skin with the perfect glowy base for the makeup on top.

The best concealer I have ever used has got to be the Tower 28 one. This concealer is hydrating, brightening, and blends out so well. I recommend applying with a beauty blender :)

I have tried so many liquid/ cream bronzers, but this is the best for a glowy base. It blends with your skin and doesn't create any pilling or cakey skin that I've found with other high-end bronzers. This one is a must.
Charlotte Tilbury Hollywood Liquid Contour Wand
This blush blends out so well and comes in the prettiest shades. It is also very glowy and pigmented, so the container will last you a long time. I recommend shade Sweet Rose.

At the end of my makeup routine, I like to apply a little bit of this Benefit Cookie Highlighter to my nose with my finger. This highlighter is so illuminating and pretty; a definite recommendation.

For mascara, I've recently been loving this new Sephora Collection Tubing Mascara. It holds really well and is better for your lashes because of the tubing effect when removing it.

I have also been through a lot of high-end setting sprays, and I really have been loving this drugstore one from L'Oréal. It comes in an aerosol can, which I've found usually helps the makeup stay on longer. My makeup lasts all day with this, and I a...

To blend in my foundation, I use this big Tarte foundation brush! It is very soft and fluffy and does a great job of getting everything blended in.

For my concealer, I prefer to use a sponge to blend it all in. The Beautyblender sponge is more pricey than some, but I have tried a lot, and this is the one I prefer. I find a lot of the cheaper ones are too hard. I like to wet this before I use it,...

For my bronzer/contour, I use this Morphe brush. Morphe makes really good quality brushes, and I love the slight angle on this one for blending out my bronzer.

The Summer Fridays Blush Brush is perfect for blending out blush. I like to use the angled side for my cream blush, and you can also use the fluffy side for powder blush. You can never go wrong with a dual sided brush and this one is really great qua...

I've had some bad luck with lash curlers in the past, even the more expensive ones but this one from Tweezerman has never done me wrong.
Classic Eyelash Curlers - Tweezerman | Ulta Beauty
For my eyelash curler, I keep this box of extra pads in my drawer so that one never gets too old because that can cause lash loss. This pack from amazon is perfectly compatible with the Tweezerman and is 7 bucks for a pack of 30.
