✨ Base
Primer, foundation and concealer - the everyday base I reach for as a busy mom of three who still wants to look put together. ✨
I picked this primer because my makeup keeps slipping by lunch and this little gel actually holds everything in place. The sticky feel is what makes it work, and a pea-sized amount covers my whole face, so the tube lasts forever on a tight budget. Pe...
Power Grip Primer | Sticky Gel + Hyaluronic Acid
✨ BASE MATCH - I swapped in this same Maybelline Fit Me Matte + Poreless Liquid Foundation (the exact product the original was pointing to) so it links through to a place that works for earning. It still gives that “looks like your skin, only a littl...
Maybelline Fit Me Matte + Poreless Liquid Foundation Makeup, Oil-Free, 245 Classic Beige, 1 fl oz
✨ ERASER CONCEALER - I swapped in this same Maybelline Instant Age Rewind Eraser Multi-Use Concealer (shade 110, the exact product the original was pointing to) so it links through to a place that works for earning. It still lets you dot and blend in...
Maybelline Instant Age Rewind Eraser Multi-Use Concealer Makeup, Shade 110, 0.2 fl oz
🌸 Cheeks
A tiny pop of colour on the cheek or a soft glow - the quick little boost that makes a rushed morning look intentional. 🌸
This liquid blush stains the skin with one little dot, so you can pack on the colour without looking overdone. I picked it because it's built to last and the shade range means someone's always going to find their match. Sweep it on your fingertip and...
Camo Liquid Blush
What I love is that this drops a soft glow over the face without sitting in pores or looking greasy in photos. A few drops mixed with moisturiser or foundation gives that filter-skin look at a price that doesn't hurt. Perfect if you'd rather look lit...
Halo Glow Liquid Filter Complexion Booster
🌸 CHEEK KISS SOFT-POP Same Melty Milani Cheek Kiss cream blush the original was pointing to - the one that melts into the skin for that “it came from underneath” flush and does double duty as a cheek-and-lip tint - just linked through a retailer tha...
Milani Cheek Kiss Cream Blush, Nude Kiss
👁️ Eyes
Mascara and eyeshadow for everyday eyes or a night-out look - my short list of go-to eye products at a fair price. 👁️
This mascara gives you that dramatic, separated-lash look without spending a fortune or touching false strips. I picked it because one coat already makes eyes look awake, and a second coat builds length without clumping. Wiggle at the root and pull t...
Shop Lash Princess False Lash Mascara
If your go-to look is long, feathery lashes, this is a reliable everyday pick that stays smudge-free through the day. I love that the brush reaches the corner lashes and the formula doesn't dry out fast in your bag. It pairs nicely with just a wash o...
Maybelline Lash Sensational Sky High Mascara
I picked this palette because the warm neutrals blend like a dream and you can go from a soft day eye to a smoky night look with the same shades. The pigmentation is impressive for the price, and the matte tones are great for deepening the crease. A ...
Morphe 35O Nature Glow Eyeshadow Palette
💋 Lips
A glossy shine or a long-wear colour for the days you actually need it to last - my favourite everyday lip products that don't break the bank. 💋
This gloss gives a shiny, juicy lip without that tacky, hair-sticking feeling that most glosses have. I picked it because the colour tones are subtle enough to layer over almost any lip colour, and it doesn't feather. A swipe on the centre of the low...
Butter Gloss Non-Sticky Lip Gloss - NYX
When I need a lip colour that actually stays - school runs, errands, you name it - this liquid lipcolour dries down to a glossy finish that won't budge. The pigmentation is strong, so you get a true colour in one thin coat, and it removes with oil-ba...
Maybelline Super Stay Vinyl Ink Liquid Lipcolor
💋 SMUSHY SNUGGLE SZN - I swapped in this same Smushy Matte Lip Balm in Snuggle SZN (the one the original was pointing to) so it links through to a place that works for earning. It still gives that soft, dusty-matte tint without drying you out, and t...
NYX Professional Makeup Smushy Matte Lip Balm, Snuggle SZN, Blush Nude, 0.27 fl oz
🖌️ Tools & Setting
Your brushes, sponges and the last step that actually keeps everything on your face. 🖌️✨
This brush set covers every step - foundation, cheek, eye and detail - so you don't have to hunt down separate brushes that don't match. I picked it because the bristles are soft enough for everyday use and the set costs less than buying pieces indiv...
Everyday Essentials Makeup Brush Set
I picked this sponge because the teardrop shape reaches my nose, eyelids and under-eye without dragging colour off the surrounding skin. It gives a smooth, airbrushed finish with both foundation and concealer when you dampen it first. Let it air-dry ...
Real Techniques Miracle Complexion Sponge
A few sprays of this and your face stays looking like face through heat and busy afternoons. I picked the matte finish because it tones down shine without looking flat, and the mist is fine enough that it doesn't disturb what's underneath. Hold the b...
