Foundations
One of my favorite foundations! I always find myself coming back to it, and it's affordable. They have a wide range of shades! I would say it's more of a light coverage, but buildable!
L'Oreal True Match Foundation N3 Light Medium
This is a great foundation if you're looking for something more full-coverage! It's smooth and does not look cakey on the skin. It is a bit expensive, but it has great skincare benefits as well!
IT Cosmetics CC+ Cream SPF 50, Full-Coverage
This is a great foundation if you are looking for medium to full coverage. It leaves more of a skin-like look, however, it is pretty thick.
Maybelline Instant Age Rewind Foundation SPF 20
I love this foundation! It goes on smooth and it does have a more mattifying effect on the skin. It is medium to full coverage, and has an oily texture.
wet n wild Photo Focus Matte Foundation Stick
This can be used as either a glowy base under your foundation or a light foundation itself. It is very glowy and hydrating!
e.l.f. Halo Glow Liquid Filter, 2 Fair/Light
I love this skin tint! It is perfect for light makeup days or just when you want a blurring effect. It's almost like putting a filter on your skin! Very lightweight and light coverage!
1N Skin Tint Blurring Elixir Foundation - KYLIE COSMETICS | Ulta Beauty
Concealers
My current fave! This concealer is very lightweight and hydrating with a natural finish! It is perfect with a full face as well as on its own for a more natural look!
Swipe All-Over Hydrating Serum Concealer
This is a great drugstore concealer! It's hydrating and does not look cakey, easily blendable, and buildable.
Maybelline Instant Age Rewind Concealer 100
This concealer is great if you're looking for something full coverage and long-lasting! Once you put it on it doesn't go anywhere all day! It is very thick and not the easiest to blend!
e.l.f. 16HR Camo Concealer, Full Coverage
A great dupe for the NARS concealer! It is blendable and medium coverage. It is hydrating and has more of a natural finish if that's what you are looking for!
Maybelline Fit Me Liquid Concealer, Oil-Free
If you're looking for something with more of a natural finish, the hydrating version of this e.l.f concealer is for you! It is easily blendable, but still offers full coverage!
e.l.f. Hydrating Camo Concealer, Full-Coverage
This is a great full coverage, matte finish concealer! It is long lasting and brightens the under eyes well!
Shape Tape Concealer - Tarte | Ulta Beauty
Powders
This powder is amazing, it pretty much blurs your face so you look like you have a filter on! It is a great dupe for the Huda beauty pressed powder!
Maybelline Fit Me Matte + Poreless Powder
My favorite drugstore powder for many years! It sets your makeup very well and mattifies any oiliness! The only downside is it has a bit of a floral scent.
Airspun Loose Powder Translucent
My current favorite powder for setting under the eyes and in the t-zone. It lasts all day!
wet n wild Photo Focus Loose Setting Powder
If you're looking for a full coverage powder to really set your foundation, or a powder foundation to use on its own this is the one for you!
Maybelline Super Stay 24HR Hybrid Powder 220
My current favorite blush! It is so blendable and buttery!
NYX Buttermelt Powder Blush, 12HR Wear, Vegan
Blush/Bronzer/Contour
One of my favorite bronzers for years! It is easily blendable and buildable and smells amazing!
Physicians Formula Murumuru Butter Bronzer
A great drugstore bronzer! It is so smooth and buttery, it's easily blendable and very pigmented!
NYX Matte Buttermelt Bronzer, Longwear, Vegan
A great drugstore contour! It goes on a bit light but it is easily buildable and it blends really well!
e.l.f. Halo Glow Contour Beauty Wand
Mascara/Brows
My current favorite mascara! It lengthens lashes and doesn't clump or flake throughout the day! It is not waterproof but there is a waterproof version.
Blackest Black Lash Sensational Sky High Mascara - Maybelline | Ulta Beauty
This is a great mascara, it lengthens your lashes and lasts all day! It doesn't flake off throughout the day either which is a plus!
Black Better Than Sex Volumizing & Lengthening Mascara - Too Faced | Ulta Beauty
This mascara is great if you are going for a more natural, wispy look! It lengthens lashes and goes on very smooth!
After Midnight Limitless Lash Mascara - ILIA | Ulta Beauty
This was my go-to mascara for years! It is lengthening, and doesn't clump! It is great for wispy bold lashes.
Black Roller Lash Curling & Lifting Mascara - Benefit Cosmetics | Ulta Beauty
Lip Products
This is a great lip product if you want some subtle color on your lips! It's very moisturizing and shiny and the shade black honey looks great on all skin tones!
Black Honey Almost Lipstick - Clinique | Ulta Beauty
I love this lip gloss! A little goes a long way and it is very long lasting! It looks great on its own but can also be used to layer over lipstick to give some extra shine! It is thick, but it's also moisturizing, and it has a faint scent!
$weet Mouth Gloss Bomb Universal Lip Luminizer - FENTY BEAUTY by Rihanna | Ulta Beauty
This is a great dupe for the Dior lip oil! It's very hydrating and gives lips a bold shine, the color is light and minimal! Great for everyday wear!
Pink Quartz Glow Reviver Lip Oil - e.l.f. Cosmetics | Ulta Beauty
One of my favorite lip oils! The shine it gives is unmatched and the color payoff is good! It goes great with just a lip liner if you don't want the boldness of a lipstick but you want some color and the shine of a gloss!
Chillin Like a Villian Fat Oil Lip Drip Vegan Lip Oil - NYX Professional Makeup | Ulta Beauty
This is a great plumping gloss that lasts for hours without having to reapply! The color is sheer at first but can be layered and it gives your lips a great shine!
Honeysuckle Maracuja Juicy Lip Plumping Gloss - Tarte
These are great affordable lip liner! They are extremely smooth and buttery and the color payoff is great! It also comes in multiple neutral shades, perfect for layering underneath glosses and lip oils!
