Face Washes
I tend to Keep 3-5 different face washes at any given time, and I typically use 2 different ones to wash my face at night. One is a good first pass, then another to get my face squeaky clean.
Mild Face Wash for Sensitive Skin. This is the one I use first to get most of the makeup off. I have very sensitive skin, and this doesn't irritate my skin at all.
Ultra Facial Cleanser - Kiehl's
Eminence is such a great line. Everything is so gentle on the skin. This face wash smells amazing. All you truly need is a pea-size dot. Once you mix it with water, it spreads well and cleanses the skin so well.
Stone Crop Gel Wash | Eminence Organic Skin Care
Serums
I have a couple different serums I rotate throughout the week
Trader Joe’s has some great dupes for very good products.
Dewy Skin Serum | Trader Joe's
My bottle of this is almost empty. It is a firming cream, and it smells amazing. This brand is so wonderful.
Bamboo Firming Fluid - Eminence Organic Skin Care
This is so gentle and extra hydrating. I mix this into my moisturizer and it helps it go on so smoothly.
WNP Hyaluronic Acid Serum 3% 30PCS Vials
Moisturizers/Eye Cream
Moisturizers and eye cream are so important. Don’t skip this step. Especially a good spf every day!
First Aid Beauty is such a great brand for sensitive skin. My actual go to eye cream is the 5 in 1, but it is currently unavailable. This is a a great one too though!
Ultra Repair Hydrate + De-Puff Eye Cream with Hyaluronic Acid
This moisturizer is awesome for sensitive skin. It smells AMAZING. You can actually put a drop or two of water on a finger tip amount of cream and mix it in. It makes the moisturizer spread on so well, and not be too heavy.
Bakuchiol + Niacinamide Moisturizer - Eminence Organic Skin Care
This is such a great SPF moisturizer. I use it when I go to Disney because it gives me the perfect base for my makeup. It is not heavy at all, and there is zero white cast. It's so hard to find an SPF moisturizer that has no cast. So great for sensit...
AM Facial Moisturizing Lotion SPF 50 - CeraVe
This is the counterpart for the AM CeraVe moisturizer. Very lightweight, but hydrating enough to help moisturize your skin overnight.
PM Facial Moisturizing Lotion - CeraVe
This is another go to for Park Days. a wonderful base for the rest of your makeup. It has a slight tint to it, but you can barely see it.
Daily Defense Tinted SPF - Eminence Organic Skin Care
Eyeshadow Primer
Eyeshadow primer is a game changer. If you’re not using one now, give it a try! You won’t be disappointed.
Eyeshadow primer is a must. Eyeshadow grabs onto the surface of the eyelid so well after applying the primer. You can get much more vibrant colors, and shadow stays all day.
Urban Decay Cosmetics Original Eyeshadow Primer Potion
This is by far my favorite eyeshadow primer. It is very hard to find though.
Benefit Stay Don't Stray Eye Primer Light/Med
Nars has a great eyeshadow primer. I have bought it when I can't find my other go-tos.
Nars Eye Primer & Base | Ulta Beauty
Eyeshadows
Eyeshadow is where I have fun. This is just a free of my favs that have great coverage, stay on, and don’t settle in fine lines
I am obsessed with this palette. There are so many amazing neutral colors that still have a high impact. I usually use 3-5 colors on my lids. The shadows are very layerable without getting cakey. This shadow is very high quality for such an affordabl...
Stone Cold Fox | Cool Tone Eyeshadow Palette | ColourPop
Beautiful neutral palette. A great supplement to any other palette.
I like to have fun with my eyeshadow colors. This has such pretty blues, and nice shimmery ones too!
So Elemental | Cool Blue & Silver Palette | ColourPop
This is such a gorgeous light nude color. Super smooth and buttery, it fills in all the cracks and crevices and doesn’t settle into fine lines. This is often sold out, so grab it when you see it in stock.
Single Eyeshadows | Omega, Shroom & More - MAC Cosmetics
There are so many color options with this shadow

Eyeliner & Mascara
There are so many options when it comes to a liquid liner and I’ve tried too many of them. These are the ones I buy again and again.
I use this and the brown version almost every day. I love the brush applicator. It’s tapered perfectly so you can get a really sharp thin line. It’s very buildable. For maturing skin, it doesn’t run into fine lines on the eyelids.
Brushstroke 24-Hour Liner - MAC Cosmetics
This and the black version are my go to liners every day. The application is so smooth and the perfect amount of liquid comes out. It doesn’t run into fine lines on aging eyelids.
Brushstroke 24-Hour Liner - MAC Cosmetics
When I’m going for a bolder look, i reach for this eyeliner. They have fun colors, stars out end goes in very smoothly.
I like a matte finish on my face and this is how i achieve that.
This is my tried and true setting powder. It has great staying power. It is light, so it doesn’t look cakey. Lasts all day!
All Nighter: Waterproof Setting Powder - Urban Decay
This setting spray is awesome. I sometimes use it before foundation and after powder and my makeup stays put.
Quick tip: shake very well before spraying. This will give it more of a fine mist consistency and won’t drip.
All Nighter Waterproof Makeup Setting Spray - Urban Decay
Foundation
All time favorite foundation. Super gentle on the skin and every color you can think of.
I’ve used this foundation for the last few years and it is so amazing. A little goes a long way. A makeup artist will color match you and they are usually spot on.
Highlight - Seint
This is the contour. You put this on strategic places around your face to give your face a beautiful definition.
Contour - Seint
Lip + cheek
This goes on so much lighter than what you see on the swatch. It is one of my favorite lip and cheek colors.
Lip + Cheek - Black Cherry | Seint
Such a pretty and subtle lip and cheek color
