primers
very similar to the power grip primer but this scent has me in a chokehold which is why i prefer this to the power grip
Jelly Pop Dew Primer
WAIT a minute or two before going in with your makeup on top of this to really secure the products on top
Power Grip Primer
the key with this is to pat it in with your fingers and use small amounts. it might take a little longer, but it does give a nice, smooth base to your makeup
Poreless Putty Primer
complexion
a lovely and affordable skin tint! personally my favorite and frankly only skin tint that has managed to look natural and still cover my skin's discoloration
12-Hour Always on Radiant Skin Tint with Hyaluronic Acid & Niacinamide
this has a gorgeous finish and does not get oily if you set it with powder! i recommend going in with a brush for the best application :')
TRUE COLOR Skin Perfecting Stick Foundation SPF 15
this stays PUT on your face and is almost a whipped texture? definitely more full coverage so less is more, i would recommend building up little by little!
I Am Magic Velvety Matte Foundation
perfect for spot concealing and it sets without any powder - great for if you're not wearing a ton of makeup or want to cover up a few blemishes
L.A. Girl Pro Conceal HD Concealer
this was my first big girl foundation! gorgeous finish but i still tend to set this with powder to keep it in lock
Pro Filt'r Soft Matte Longwear Liquid Foundation
powders
affordable and one of my staples - i'm on the warmer side so it sets nicely with my products underneath! i reapply this if needed throughout the day and it helps a lot, too
Brighten Up! Banana Powder
a GORGEOUS powder that helps blend all your complexion products together. my only issue with this is that you need to be careful with this or it will break :(
Can't Stop Won't Stop All Day Mattifying Powder
this has a gorgeous finish and doesn't leave an extremely matte finish but is almost luminous? i have used this both on its own as a foundation and as a powder to set but i am going to leave it in this section because that's how i tend to use it
Microsmooth Multi-Tasking Baked Face Powder Foundation
my favorite loose setting powder by far! i usually tap it into my skin with a small, fluffy brush and dust off any excess so i don't look crusty
Bake & Set Setting Powder
definitely one of the more expensive products on this list but it sets your makeup so well. if you can snag it from tj maxx, it's about $10!
Light Reflecting Pressed Setting Powder
sprays
im not lying when i say your makeup will be STUCK to your face with this. i will say it has a hairspray-like scent which is why i tend not to veer towards it often, but it works like a dream
Makeup Setting Spray
absolute holy grail of setting sprays for me
Make It Last Matte - Matte Finish Charcoal Setting Spray
highly recommended for a reason - fragranceless and keeps my makeup in place even on sweaty days
SEPHORA COLLECTION All Day Makeup Setting Spray
