🌸Foundation
I've always struggled to find a foundation that isn't too pink, and this one is just the perfect foundation shade for me. Also this formula is great for keeping you matte and blurring out pores all day if you have oily skin.😊
Maybelline Fit Me Matte + Poreless Liquid Foundation Makeup, 128 Warm Nude, 1 fl oz
🌸Concealer
This concealer is such a lifesaver in this cold winter. It brightens my under-eyes without them looking ‘gray’. Super hydrating, providing that full coverage, and won't settle into dry patches.
e.l.f. Hydrating Camo Concealer, Light Beige
🌸Eyebrow
This taupe shade is a perfect muted brown that looks so natural for me.
NYX Professional Makeup Micro Vegan Eyebrow Pencil, Taupe, 0.003 oz
🌸Powder Blush
I love this shade as it gives that earthy rose pop of color and a sophisticated natural flush.
Wet n Wild Color Icon Blush Makeup, Infused with Jojoba Oil, Mellow Wine, 0.21 oz
🌸Eyeshadow Palette
All I need for a daily look. The warm neutrals are super pigmented and blend so well.
e.l.f. Bite Size Eyeshadow Palette, Cream & Sugar
🌸Liquid Blush
I love using this when I want a dewy, glowing cheek. The rosy tint is subtle enough that it doesn't clash with my warm undertones.
e.l.f. Halo Glow Blush Beauty Wand, Rosé You Slay, 0.33 fl oz
🌸Eyeliner
This shade is so much more flattering for a muted look than black, and it stays put.
NYX Professional Makeup Epic Wear Liquid Liner, Long-Lasting Waterproof Liquid Eyeliner, Brown
🌸Contour
My go-to for quick contouring and highlighting because the tones aren't too warm that actually create natural shadows and luminous shine to define your features.
NYX Professional Makeup Wonder Stick, Cream Highlight & Contour Stick, Universal Light, 0.14 oz
🌸Mascara
My ride-or-die for lashes. Fans them out perfectly without making them look clumpy or messy!
Maybelline Lash Sensational Sky High Washable Mascara, Blackest Black
🌸Highlighter
Literal magic on olive skin because it emphasizes that golden glow olive skin tones already have. 🤩
I use this to melt my makeup together, plus it actually makes it transfer-proof for hours.
Milani Make It Last Jumbo XL Setting Spray, Prime + Hydrate + Set, Natural Finish, 6 fl oz
🌸Eyeshadow Stick
I use this shadow when I'm in a rush. Like a muted champagne that brightens up your eyes instantly. ❤️
NYX Professional Makeup Jumbo Eye Pencil, All-in-one Eyeshadow and Eyeliner Multi-stick, Yogurt
🌸Bronzer
For that sun-kissed warmth that looks natural, this shade is a must-add. Love its golden undertone that avoids the muddy look.
NYX Professional Makeup Buttermelt Powder Bronzer, All Butta'd up
🌸Eyebrow Gel
A fantastic budget-friendly pick for dark hair, building that natural-looking volume and depth, ensuring your brows stay in place without feeling tacky or crunchy.
