Peach Pie is my fave shade all around! I can use her under my eyes/ all over the face and she stays matte while still blurring! so good 🤍
Easy Bake Loose Baking & Setting Powder - HUDA BEAUTY Peach Pie
for my under eyes only! Adds brightness but still blurs and stays matte!
Easy Bake Loose Baking & Setting Powder - HUDA BEAUTY Cherry Blossom
my staple for setting the rest of my face + adding some extra smoothing coverage
Microsmooth Multi-Tasking Baked Face Powder Foundation
an affordable option for extra coverage and blurring! i love using a lighter shade to brighten my under eyes a bit too!
Fit Me® Matte + Poreless Powder Foundation Makeup
Foundations + Skin Tints
my fave foundation for dry skin girls looking for something skin-like with medium buildable coverage. paaacked with skincare & so many shade options omg! I'm shade 425 :)
triclone™ skin tech medium coverage foundation
hands down my fave skin tint! she LASTS, gives “your skin but better” and the shades are gorg!
MILK MAKEUP Hydro Grip 12-Hour Hydrating Gel Skin Tint
if i'm gonna be taking pics or under any bright lights ?? THIS ONE. super light weight but still has great coverage also <3
Light Reflecting Advanced Skincare Foundation
oldie but goodie! FULL coverage booots!
Born This Way Natural Finish Foundation
literally has never let me down. very skin like and light-weight. photographs beautifully as well!
Studio Fix Fluid SPF 15 Foundation | 67 Soft Matte Shades
Concealers
hands down if i can only have one concealer it would be this! full coverage but i can also use it on “no makeup-makeup” days for spot concealing! I use ‘Chestnut’ as my shade closest to my skin color then 'Butterscotch' for a highlight
Too Faced Born This Way Concealer
such a creamy buildable concealer. go-to for no makeup days
Kosas Revealer Concealer
its all in the name, creamy-radiant! I use ginger (a very light shade) for an extra highlight under the eyes
Nars Creamy Radiant Concealer
i looove her! she can dry down a little quick but def full coverage! not the creamiest but I don't mind :)
#FauxFilter Matte Buildable Coverage Waterproof Concealer
Blushes, Bronzers+ Highlighters
dewy, skin like and buildable! my fave hands down
Dew Blush Liquid Cheek Blush - Saie
my fave skin like, buildable formula. I wish they had more shades tho!
Saie Dew Bronze Soft-Focus Sculpting Liquid Bronzer
love! so pigmented
MAKEUP BY MARIO Blush
want the perfect pink under-eye?this blends perfectly and i love the cream and powder options together!
ONE/SIZE by Patrick Starrr Cheek Clapper 3D Blush Trio Palette
1 word- PIGMENT! shade lucky is my fave <3
Rare Beauty by Selena Gomez Soft Pinch Liquid Blush
affordable option! very pigmented, can still be very buildable :)
Comin' In Hot Pink Camo Liquid Blush - e.l.f. Cosmetics
my fave affordable liquid highlighter, a little goes a long way. I personally apply over powders but be careful, it can pick up your makeup if you wait too long for it to dry before blending
elf Cosmetics Halo Glow Highlight Beauty Wand
shade: mocha mami! very blenbable and buildable , this specific shade runs a bit red but i think its perfect for my complexion
FENTY BEAUTY by Rihanna Sun Stalk'r Instant Warmth Bronzer
beautiful finish, has some shimmer because its baked. Perfect topper for liquid blush but also beautiful by itself
Milani - Berry Amore Baked Blush - Radiant Powder Blush
Setting Sprays
I use this in between makeup steps to keep everything nice and hydrated, helps so much with blending.
2.8 oz Continuous Setting Mist - Morphe
this baddie will have your makeup LOCKED IN. Sweatproof, waterproof everything. I only use when I know i'll sweat or be by water or else it feels too drying for me and my dry skin.
One/Size by Patrick Starrr On 'Til Dawn Mattifying Waterproof Setting Spray
Such a beautiful finish and long wearing! Personally I don't find it to be transfer proof but it definitely helps with longevity, as a dry-skin girl I love that its not too matte!
Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Flawless Hydrating & Waterproof Setting Spray
Personally, i LOVE a dewy look but specifically a dewy cheek area. I spray this on the high points of my cheek pretty much every look. i'm not a fan of how this sprays AT all but i will still repurchase and blend out any dots the spray nozzle leaves ...
Power Grip Dewy Setting Spray - e.l.f. Cosmetics
Beautiful finish omg!! she also LASTS, an amazing option for the girlies on a budget. i LOVE her :)
Stay All Night Micro-Fine Setting Mist - e.l.f. Cosmetics
Primers
affordable option for grippy primers! 10/10
Power Grip Primer - e.l.f. Cosmetics
i love how this keeps my makeup on but still has a natural dew! also smells so good haha
Jelly Pop Dew Primer - e.l.f. Cosmetics
i use only in my t-zone and above my brows (where i sweat). she will keep your makeup on and matte all day! not the most blurring tho. i don't think its a *must* for dry skin!
Danessa Myricks Beauty Yummy Skin Blurring Balm Powder -Universal Primer
this?! THIS?! girl- she's so glowy and feels almost like a serum but not super sticky. beautiful finish under makeup if you want a “glow from within”. 100/10
Danessa Myricks Beauty Face Primer
i love love the finish of this! very hydrating as well as glowy under foundation!
NARS Light Reflecting™ Hydrating Primer with Hyaluronic Acid
the OG grippy primer! too good :)
Milk Makeup Hydro Grip Gripping Primer
oldie but goodie! it's silicone based so be careful when mixing with other primers to avoid pilling but i LOVE how blurring it is.
Smashbox Photo Finish Smooth & Blur Oil-Free Foundation Primer
although this wont stop face sweating, it will help it to dry undisturbed! use a small amount! i really only use in the summer or if i'm near water!
