Base
The hype for this primer is so well deserved. I'm using the one with niacinamide. I don't need to retouch my face when I use this.
Power Grip Primer - e.l.f. Cosmetics
This is classic. If you don't have this, you're missing out on something. It feels like a high end foundation. It does not cake. It looks like skin. They have so many shades to choose from. And it's acne friendly. Doesn't clog my pores at all.

A little goes a long way. I only use 2-4 drops of this when I'm aiming for a No-Makeup look. Looks like skin and has buildable coverage.
Maybelline Super Stay 24H Skin Tint + Vitamin C
This is the only concealer that works under my eyes. It doesn't cake at all. It's so creamy and easy to blend on skin.

This is for matte lips days. I love that it's long lasting and it still melts like butter. I let it sit for around 10 minutes and it's not going to bulge.
