The Lip Combo I Wear Every Single Day
When M·A·C reformulated their matte lipsticks, I was nervous—but this upgrade is incredible. It gives me that plush, velvety matte finish without drying my lips out into a desert by 2 PM.
Velvet Teddy M·A·Cximal Silky Matte Lipstick - MAC
My go-to "no-makeup makeup" lip. On days when I don't want a full matte look, this feels like a luxurious lip balm but gives the prettiest shiny wash of color. I apply this mindlessly without a mirror.
Lustreglass Sheer-Shine Lipstick
I have tried so many drugstore dupes, but nothing beats the original Spice. It glides on smoothly without pulling on my lips and creates the most flattering, realistic definition. I literally keep one in my bag and one on my vanity.
Lip Pencil - MAC Cosmetics
Skin-Prep & Base Essentials
I used to deal with foundation clinging to dry patches, but prepping with this completely changed my skin texture. It gives that wet-look, glass skin finish and makes foundation glide on like butter.
Hyper Real Serumizer™ Skin Balancing Hydration Serum
My ultimate event-day foundation. Whenever I know I'm going to be out for 10+ hours or taking photos, this is what I wear. It covers my redness instantly, controls my shiny T-zone, and doesn't budge.
Studio Fix Fluid SPF 15 24HR Matte Foundation + Oil Control
I don't use this as a harsh setting spray—I use it to make my makeup look like actual skin. A few mists after applying powder completely melts all the layers together so I never look cakey.
MAC - 3.4 oz Prep + Prime Fix+ Primer and Setting Spray
My Eye & Cheek Favorites
If you have oily eyelids or eyeshadow that creases after two hours, you need this. I swipe a tiny bit on with my ring finger before eyeshadow, and my eye makeup literally stays locked in until I wash it off at night.
Pro Longwear Paint Pot
I'm super picky about mascara because my lashes tend to fall flat. This wand lets me layer two or three coats for crazy length without turning my lashes into spider legs.
Black, Mega Brush Macstack Mascara Superstack - MAC | Ulta Beauty
This is my "I didn't get enough sleep" blush. It’s a gorgeous peachy-beige with a soft shimmer that gives your cheeks a healthy glow without needing a separate highlighter.
