Primers & Base
Primers & bases for mid 30s combo skin. I use actives and microneedle so I look for products that will smooth, provide hydration and moisture and not settle into fine lines.
One of my faves, this has a balmy moisturizer feel that hydrates my skin and leave it ready for face makeup. It’s not the kind of primer that has a tacky feel and helps makeup cling to it but I do notice my makeup lasts longer still with use.
Vitamin Enriched Face Base Moisturizer & Primer
Skin Tints & Concealers
I don’t wear full foundation anymore unless it’s for a special occasion. I look for products that don’t settle or cake, look hydrating and glowy and blend well.
My absolute fave for every day- this isn’t going to give you full coverage, this won’t even give you medium coverage but it will make your skin glowy and fresh and even out redness. I pair it with concealer as needed on spots and I look like I just h...
Perfecting Skin Tint
This is my formal foundation if I need more than just a skin tint. This is medium coverage, evening out blemishes, redness etc but still blending well. It has a nice subtle glow and looks beautiful on the skin.
Dior Forever Skin Glow: Hydrating Face Foundation
This is the only concealer you will need because it truly does it all. It is so pigmented!! A dot covers a blemish. It’s also smooth and soft enough it can be used under the eyes and doesn’t crease on me. On vacation I even tried mixing it in with mo...
Soft Matte Complete Concealer
Blush & Bronzer
I may have a touch of blush blindness but I love blush! Especially cream blush.
My favorite bronzer of all time. The texture of hourglass powders are next worldly, they are so finely milled and have this matte but luminous glow. Blends like an absolute dream and since they are baked they last forever!
Ambient™ Lighting Bronzer | Natural, Sun-Kissed Glow
I won every single shade but powder pink and chocolate cherry are my favorites! These leave a beautiful wash of color and can be used in the cheeks and lips.
Pot Rouge Cream Blush for Lips & Cheeks
Powder & Finishing Products
I like finely milled talc free powders that set my hydrating base layers and don’t get cakey.
My holy grail powders, even on bare skin I will buff this into my skin. It makes pores look smaller, diffuses redness, leaves your skin looking matte but glowy from within. It never settles in fine lines because of how fine the powder is.
Ambient™ Lighting Finishing Powder | Your Perfect Light
This is the setting spray. If you were a fan of urban decay all nighter, it’s because this was the formula. This locks makeup in like no other, it helps with shine, oiliness, cakiness, etc.
The Makeup Finishing Spray - Bridal Formula
Eye Products
My favorite neutral single. If you have pale skin, this is the perfect crease color on the warmer side.
Bamboo Eye Shadow LP Discontinued Products
Eyebrows & Lashes
I look for easy brow products that look natural and add soft definition.
Love this brow pencil, has a decent bit of color pay off but still soft and blendable. I use to use a higher price point option and I go through brow pencils like crazy so I tried this on a whim and I’ll never go back! Great color range and super aff...
Micro Brow Eyebrow Pencil | NYX Professional Makeup
I love the shape of this brow pencil, it glides on easily and is so easy to blend out using the spoolie on the other side.
Arch™ Brow Sculpting Pencil
I switched to brown mascara after entering my my 30s because black just started looking harsh on me! This is a beautiful warm brown that still gives definition to your lashes but in a more subtle way. The staying power is great and it doesn’t flake d...
L'Oreal Paris Voluminous Lash Paradise Mascara
All about lips
My absolute favorite lip product, I keep these everywhere, in my nightstand, by my work desk, in my purse! It hydrates my lips, gives them a soft pink color and looks beautiful and natural on. The tin lasts forever too!
