The perfect full coverage foundation! Has a pale enough shade to match my fair skin and never looks cakey or dry ( for reference I use shade 0.5 )
L'Oréal Paris True Match Liquid Foundation 7.5D/W Warm | Make Up
Good full coverage concealer manages to brighten my under eye and cover my dark circles without looking too heavy under the eyes ( for reference I use 320 porcelain )
Infallible 24H More Than Concealer | Face Makeup | L'Oréal Paris
The perfect grippy primer doesn’t feel too sticky or heavy on the face but keeps your makeup emplace all day
Maybelline New York, The Grippy Serum Makeup Primer, up-to 24H grip, 30ml
Although it may have a strong scent and feel like hair spray when spraying. Belobe me when I say this is the best affordable setting spray on the market, it is the only setting spray that keeps my makeup emplace for extended periods of time without b...
L'Oreal Paris Setting Spray, Infallible Setting Mist, up to 36hr Wear, 75ml
Really good setting powder. Comes in a variety of different shades including translucent for all skin tones and makes your makeup look almost airbrushed
Makeup Setting Powders | Loose & Pressed Powder
Don’t be scared at the low price tag of £2.50 because it is genuinely such a good concealer. I use it for the littler makeup days where you just use concealer and it looks natural whilst also covering up my dark circles on my under eyes.
17. Second Skin Enhancing Concealer
As a pale girly I always find it hard to find a shade that matches but this is the perfect shade match for me. It bends in seamlessly and is the perfect medium coverage foundation
Soft Glam Satin Foundation - Medium Coverage
As a pale skin girly I use the lightest shade but I will stay it is still very pigmented and you don’t need a lot. It does blend really nicely and it is a very good bronzer for the price.
e.l.f. Camo Liquid Bronzer & Contour

This is the perfect light weight moisturiser. As a girl with really sensitive skin it is the only moisturiser that I have found that doesn’t break me out and actually moisturises my skin making it look plump and hydrated.
Cetaphil Daily Hydrating Moisturiser, Moisturising Face Cream for Sensitive ...
Unlike most oil based cleansers I have tried this is the only one that doesn’t feel greasy. It works wonders at closing your skin and removing the makeup whilst remaining gentle and not being harsh on the skin
The Ordinary Squalane Cleanser
Really gentle water based cleanser, perfect for my sensitive skin has been a staple product in my routine that I always go back to if a new product I try breaks me out.
aveeno face calm + restore® nourishing oat cleanser
A staple serum in my skincare routine. Hydrates the skin beautifully and helps my skin get back to normal when I have tried a product that doesn’t exactly suit it.

Body care recs
Has a subtle vanilla scent whilst still staying true to the classic dove smell. Leaves skin feeling soft, smooth and smelling good for hours
Dove Advanced Care Body Wash Pampering Shea Butter & Vanilla 400ml
Really good scent. Obviously we know I love dove when it comes to body care because it’s so nourishing and the smell lasts for hours, but as a bridgerton girly I’m so happy it’s a nice smelling scent . Honestly Such a sweet scent I could eat it.
Dove Bridgerton Raspberry & Rose Rendezvous Body Wash 400ml
Like I said with the body wash the scent is absolute delicious and so sweet. As for the body scrub aspect isn’t to grainy that it becomes uncomfortable but isn’t thin enough it doesn’t exfoliate as intended
Dove Bridgerton Raspberry & Rose Rendezvous Body Scrub 225ml
The perfect body oil. A little bit greasy but what else are you expecting for a body oil but not overwhelming where my sensory issues can’t handle it. I enjoy the fact it has Little to no scent so can be paired with any of my fav scented body lotions...
Aveeno Skin Relief Body Oil Spray 200ml
One of my fav body lotions to date, feels incredible on the Kim and sinks in almost instantly. Doesn’t have much of a smell but works wonders when helping my strawberry skin.
Aveeno Skin Renewal Smoothing Cream
This is going to sound a bit weird but this before any body care routine is actually a game changer. Leaves you feeling squeaky clean and ready to layer other body products on top in the shower.
Antibacterial Original Bar Soap 2x100g

As a dyed hair girly this is genuinely a game changer. I have naturally light brown hair and eyebrows and when I freshly dye my hair black I feel as though my eyebrows looks out of place so this makes everything just look that bit more cohesive. This...
Eylure DYBROW Eyebrow Dye Kit Black 5ML
As a very pale girly this is the only tan that doesn’t make me look orange. It gives a subtle tanned glow whilst looking natural not not like a satsuma 😂
Sunkissed Self Tan Mousse 200ml - Medium
