This is a perfect buildable concealer. I dab some on my hand to let it warm up on my skin & use a concealer brush to build coverage. It’s long lasting & doesn’t crease. I’m in the shade 23 light medium golden.

I’ve finally found the perfect shade for me & my fellow light-medium olive girls. You can use a small amount for a skin-like finish or use more if you need more coverage. I’m in the shade 190 light olive.

This is a recent favourite of mine. The creamy texture and ability to build up colour without accidentally overdoing it gives you a naturally flushed look. I’m currently using “Sleepy Girl” which is a soft mauve but am planning on purchasing “Tan Lin...

I’ve been loving this cream blush in the colour “Lady” a nude mauve. It’s has a great pigment so a little bit goes a long way while leaving a nice, dewy finish.

This primer wasn’t on my radar but when I accidentally received it in my Sephora order (love that for me) I was pleasantly surprised. It gives my skin a smooth & poreless base before my makeup application & locks it in for all day wear.

This Elf Poreless Liquid Putty Primer is the best affordable primer when you don’t want to shell out the big bucks but still want something that will give you a smooth base to work with.

I’ve had this Too Faced palette in my bag for a long time & I still can’t get over how beautiful these shades are. You can use the softer shades for a daytime look & then add bolder colours & shimmer to get ready for a night out. You real...

I swatched this in the store & couldn’t stop thinking about it so I had to go back & make the splurge. It’s shimmery, pigmented & so so gorgeous to elevate your makeup look. I’m using the shade “slow burn” & have zero regrets with thi...

I’m obsessed with this contour stick. I try to use a minimal amount so that it looks natural while still giving me that sculpted, snatched look.

Who doesn’t love a fluffy brow? I use a tiny amount to brush up my brows to look soft, full & locked in place.

I’ve been using this drugstore mascara for years & won’t ever stop. It’s good to know where to splurge on makeup & wear to save & this mascara has never done me wrong. I use the shade black brown for natural volume.

You need this Shiseido eyelash curler immediately. I was shocked to see what this little thing can do. It gives you an immediate lash lift. On chill days I just curl my lashes & go without mascara. Yes, it really is that good.

This Huda Beauty baking powder is amazing for setting makeup & controlling oil. I get super oily in my t-zone so this step is crucial, especially in summer. Mine is in the shade “Pound Cake”.

I’ve been using this product for 10 years & you can pry it from my cold, dead hands. It’s a classic & super pigmented. While I don’t go as crazy on the highlighter as I did 10 years ago, (those were the days) I use a highlight brush to put a ...

It took me a while to try Rhode products as I thought it was overhyped. Turns out it’s worth all the hype. I’m using the shade “Twist” & have never found such a perfect shade match to my natural lip line. It has a creamy texture & lasts forev...

This is a gorgeous & creamy lip crayon to add into your lip combo. An affordable drugstore find that is pigmented & long-lasting. I’m using the shade “Trust Your Gut”.

I love Summer Fridays! This lip butter balm moisturizes & adds a beautiful brown sheer colour on top of my lip combo. I’ll be honest though… my favourite thing about this is the scent of iced coffee… delicious.

This is the perfect setting spray to lock in your makeup so that it lasts! Another affordable drugstore steal to keep your makeup looking fresh all day. I spray about 5 times about a foot from my face to keep everything in place.

I use this to apply my concealer & foundation. It’s dense while being soft & gives me a beautiful skin-like finish. Shoutout to Katie Jane Hughes on TikTok for showing me how to apply makeup properly. Check her out to change your life!
