A quick and easy mascara for every day! It doesn't smudge or flake on me, but I don't have oily lids. It's so affordable it's worth a shot for everyone :)
Bye Bye Panda Eyes! Tubing Mascara - Essence
Glossier who? This tinted gel is SO GOOD. I have two shades. One to lighten my brows a bit and one for a natural look!
Wow Brow Gel - e.l.f. Cosmetics
The first brow product I fell in love with! The applicator is perfect!
Tinted Eyebrow Mascara - NYX Professional Makeup
They're iconic for a reason! I have so many shades. The formula is buttery and blendable, and each pot comes with tons of product.
Super Shock Shadow - ColourPop
This little guy is great. It's the perfect size for travel and is SO affordable!! Love!!
Cream & Sugar Bite Size Eyeshadow Palette - e.l.f. Cosmetics | Ulta Beauty
Another iconic formula from Essence. They kill the mascara game!

If you need a black liner, this is the one. LOVE that you don't need to sharpen it!
Kajal Auto Eyeliner - Super Black - L.A. Girl | Ulta Beauty
Do not sleep on LA Girl. Their eye pencils are really good for the price.
Pastel Dream Auto Eyeliner - L.A. Girl | Ulta Beauty
This shadow formula is so good!! I love the warm shimmery tones!

Champagne Crystal No Budge Shadow Stick - e.l.f. Cosmetics | Ulta Beauty
Lips
Shade “peachy” is my favorite- I just wore it for my wedding! I love that these are long-lasting but not matte. I do find they dry pretty sticky but I'll look past it.
Super Stay Vinyl Ink Liquid Lipcolor - Maybelline
Butter Gloss that sparkles???? A million times yes.
Bring The Bling Butter Gloss Bling Non-Sticky Lip Gloss - NYX Professional Makeup | Ulta Beauty
These are hydrating and I find they last really well on my lips! I have two shades and reach for them ALL THE TIME.

2
It's hydrating, smells delicious, and gives a pretty tint. What else do you need? They also just released new shades!
Fruit Fetish Lip Oil - Milani
These lip liners don't budge. They can be a liiiiitle drying, but I have no issues when I line rather than fill my lips :)
Shockwave Lip Liner - L.A. Girl | Ulta Beauty
I'm obsessed with this formula!! It's super pigmented, hydrating, and stays put. These are such a hidden gem.
Lip Gloss - L.A. Girl | Ulta Beauty
I like that these twist up! I hate sharpening liners!
Love Triangle Vegan Lip Liner - e.l.f. Cosmetics
Love this formula! It’s a hybrid lip balm/lipstick. Nice pigment without a heavy feel. Perfect amount of shine.
Glow Paradise Lip Balm-in-Lipstick with Pomegranate Extract
Face
If you want that 2016 highlight, here you go. That's when I first started using this and I never stopped! PAck ir on or diffuse for a gorgeous glow :)
Blossom Glow MegaGlo Highlighting Powder - Wet n Wild | Ulta Beauty
Sorry Rare Beauty, but these are the OG glowy blushes. So good!
Luminoso Baked Blush - Milani | Ulta Beauty
I like this better than much more expensive powders! It takes away shine without taking away your glow.
Halo Glow Loose Setting Powder | e.l.f. Cosmetics
Obsessed. HOW did I wait so long to try this? It's sticky, hydrating, and not as goopy feeling as ye olde Jelly Pop.
Power Grip Primer - e.l.f. Cosmetics
1
Loooove this as a blush! Also great for the lids and lips when you want a soft, monochrome look. These are good for soft washes of color and aren't super buildable (which I don't mind).
e.l.f. Monochromatic Multi-Stick
Gives a stunning finish to the skin, alone or mixed with other products! Use in a slightly darker shade for a bronzing drops effect ;)
Halo Glow Liquid Filter - e.l.f. Cosmetics

Scent? Questionable. Finish? Excellent.
Soft Beige PhotoFocus Liquid Foundation - Wet n Wild | Ulta Beauty
My most reached for drugstore bronzer. It blends like a dream and doesn't pull too orange on me!
Putty Bronzer - e.l.f. Cosmetics | Ulta Beauty
Really pretty light coverage. I love mixing it with the Elf Halo Glow!
Pretty Fresh Hyaluronic Acid Tinted Moisturizer - ColourPop
Get yourself some PIGMENT. These are dupes for the Rare Beauty liquid blushes!
Camo Liquid Blush - e.l.f. Cosmetics | Ulta Beauty
Tanning drops without the price tag! These are great for boosting your glow.
True Match Lumi Glotion Natural Glow Enhancer - L'Oréal | Ulta Beauty
Creamy, blendable, and affordable. I love this one. She's a hidden gem!
Wet n Wild Photofocus Concealer
I first bought this in 2015. It's not too matte for my dry skin and looks good without too much effort! A timeless classic!
Fit Me Matte + Poreless Liquid Foundation - Maybelline
Creamy, blendable, super pigmented! I want every shade! I looove the application with stick blushes.
Hydrating Blush Stix - ColourPop
One of the best setting sprays I use. Super affordable so I don't feel bad using a lot when I need to!
Stay All Night Micro-Fine Setting Mist - e.l.f. Cosmetics
An excellent skin tint for the price! Pretty light coverage but a lovely finish. Evens the skin tone nicely. Great for natural makeup days, but I’ve been known to make it work just fine for full beat and soft glam looks too🙂
102 Super Stay 24H Skin Tint + Vitamin C - Maybelline | Ulta Beauty

The only makeup sponges I will buy. These are excellent.

The most affordable way to join the powder puff game. Plus it's pink!
Halo Glow Powder Puff - e.l.f. Cosmetics | Ulta Beauty
Brushing your mascara out makes such a huge difference. Clumpy lashes begone! I love this thing!
