All the makeup/skincare products i’ve tested and used over the years that i’ve been loyal to ever since trying on!
For most I usually carefully research and check reviews for the products before I purchase, so you can also check that out online as ...

Obsessed with this! Perfect if u have oily dry skin, no build up or leaves your face feeling greasy and heavy. Great for all times of day; under makeup, without makeup, morning and night skinecare. On my third container currently!
Holy Hydration! Face Cream
I’m to broke to purchase any large versions of these, but i’ve tried the samples for it many times and I honestly felt sad every time i used them up because this is absolutely banger of a moisturizer
TATCHA Dewy Skin Cream, Rich Moisturizer
I usually hate sunscreens, they leave this heavy dirty oily feeling on your face along with a white cast. This product however, and just absolutely amazing, perfectly light weight, don’t need to put too much to cover entire face, rests nicely under l...
Bioré UV Aqua Rich
So good!! If u have an oily T-zone, this primer will literally prevent that oil build up after hours of having makeup on. Make ur skin and pores blurry and nearly flawless. I’d recommend leaving it on for a little bit before applying anything else on...
Secure The Sweat Waterproof Mattifying Primer
Another good sunscreen i’d vouch for. Although if i had to pick between this and Biore, i would pick Biore. This one is still very close! It comes on a little more thicker and gives a slight more oily feel. This sunscreen is best to wear under makeup...
Broad Spectrum Face Sunscreen for Sensitive Skin
Good for long day eyeshadow wear plus the pigment looks better on top when this is applied :) I think it’s mostly useful for heavy eyeshadow looks though
Urban Decay Eyeshadow Primer Potion Nude Base
Foundation/Concealer
Great coverage and genuinely will last all day. Got it before my trip to Paris so I’ve literally tested it in the heat and for long hours. Looked amazing after hours of sweating, walking and being outside ! LOL JUST FOUND OUT THEY SUPPORT ISREAL. do ...
Double Wear Stay-in-Place Longwear Matte Foundation
Sometimes i won’t feel like or won’t have time to wear makeup, so i’ll literally just apply some of this concealer here and there, and ill genuinely look like i have clear bright scarless skin. I went a shade lighter since I originally got it to wear...
Hourglass Brightening Vanish™ Airbrush Concealer
Another banger of a foundation. Absolute amazing coverage. Used it for years, the only reason i stopped is because I wanted to try Estée Lauder for a change. Buy the water based ones or oil based one depending on the other products you use in your ro...
NARS Foundation Makeup: Liquid, Powder, Matte
A great cheaper alternative to Hourglass concealer. You will have to mix colors most probably to match your shade and it’s does apply on less smoothly then the Hourglass one, but coverage pretty good!
Elf Concealer Palette
another FIRE foundation, I think it’s water based bc less oil buildup comes on my skin and it also work really well with my other water based products
Too Faced Born This Way Longwear Foundation
Lip
Such a good liner/stain, will stay on for hours. I love using it to over line and make my lips look more even and bigger. Is also good for double lined lip types. I also really like this specific shade, sort of brown sort of mauve and pairs so well o...
NYX Lip Lingerie Liner Stain - Up To No Good
You honestly can’t go wrong with any of Laneige’s lip products. I mostly use it for lip hydration before I go to bed and i always wake up with the most soft plump lips. Pair it with aquaphor as well if you’ve got that laying around
LANEIGE Lip Glowy Balm
Discovered this back in middle school (like 2017) and use it till this day. Gives that perfect soft plump lip look!
Too Faced Lip Injection Lip Plumper
One of the best glosses I own. This color specifically, Brown Sugar, is absolutely stunning. And this is coming from someone who never liked the feeling of lipgloss on my lips
Summer Fridays Lip Butter Balm
Amazing lip stain. Genuinely lasts all day. If you’re smart, you’ll use it to slightly overline and reshape your lips, makeup will look fire. Good for matte lip look as well if your not a glossy lip fan
Sacheu Lip Liner STAY-N Peel Off Stain
Another top lip “gloss” product. Honestly ,just the look of the lippy itself is just so cute and gives me si much joy to look at. Aside from that, amazing product, great hydration and lovely pink soft tint
I’d swear AND die by this following statement: this is the best setting spray i’ve ever used!!!You will literally have you makeup on from morning till dawn. I got it before my trip to Paris in June, and it lasted through all the heat, sweat and walki...
On 'Til Dawn Mattifying Waterproof Setting Spray
If i were looking for a cheaper alternative to a good setting spray ( compared to the other one i’ve listed). I’d 100% go with this one. Your makeup will look absolutely amazing with this spray and it will last a good enough time. I do prefer this on...
Milani Setting Spray + Primer, Make It Last
Another one of my FAVORITE setting sprays. Slightly more on the expensive end of setting sprays but worth every penny. If i had to rate the ones i’ve listed, it would be On Till Dawn, then Urban Decay, and finally Milani. All still work very well
Urban Decay All Nighter Waterproof Setting Spray
Added another option if you wanna test out two types of setting sprays from urban decays before fully committing to the one large bottle i’ve added already! I can vouch for the natural finish one, i however haven’t yet tried the glow one.
Urban Decay All Nighter Setting Spray Duo
Mascara
My all time favorite mascara. it’s absolutely affordable, which is the real cherry on top. I’ve on average gone thru about 50-80 of these since i’ve been using it for almost 5 years straight. This mascara made me switch from glue on lashes to mascara...
COVERGIRL Eye Enhancer Stretch & Strengthen
Probably actually better than s*x, this mascara is so rich and creamy and comes on nice and evenly on your lashes. Good mascara if your into a nice thick sort of bottom heavy lash look that give a somewhat raccoon eye appearance . This would be secon...
Too Faced Better Than Sex Volumizing Mascara
eye
Any Canmake eyeshadow is just amazing!! Especially the ones with a glitter component, looks beautiful on the eye and for inner corner highlighting!!
CANMAKE : Eyeshadow
Perfect pigment, lovely colors. I’ve had this exact palette from almost 6 years ago and still use it (i don’t wear eyeshadow often). I think this one is perfect for big events such as weddings!
HUDA BEAUTY Makeup Palettes
By far the BEST eyeshadows i’ve ever used. I just LOVE GLITTER. And any one from this brand CLIO, is just perfect for light soft sparkly cutesy eye makeup ><
CLIO - Pro Eye Palette Air - 4 Types
seen the palette everywhere, got it, worth the hype. It has like a gazillion shade bruh. Looks great on every skin tone i find, depending on if you know which colors to pair for your type of look!
Urban Decay Naked3 12 Rosy Pink Shadows
The “Pink” one is a stunning color palette ><
Urban Decay Naked Shaped Eyeshadow Palette
setting powder
Fire setting powder, there’s honestly many more that are also good. But if u wanna try something new, check this one out!
Laura Mercier Secret Brightening Under Eye Powder
ALL TIME FAVORITE setting powder. I usually use “pound cake”, make sure you select the shade that pairs best with your skin tone. This powder will literally have your makeup looking 10 times better than usual, not to mention that absolute strength it...
Another one of my fav, also way cheaper setting powders, that i’ve used. I still would put Huda Beauty setting powder above all, but if you’re looking for a low budget powder, this would be the one
Maybelline Fit Me Loose Setting Powder Fair Light
eyebrows
lol, if u want a cheap eyebrow color in that also works really well, this will work great
JUST FOR MEN 1-Day Beard & Brow Color Darkest Brown/Black
So good and so precise, might me one of the top eyebrows pencils out there
