This gel eyeliner does not run if your eyes get wet and does not bleed into my skin. I have oily skin and this is one of the rare eyeliners that stay's in place all day.
Long-Wear Smudge-Proof Gel Eyeliner
I use the waterproof formula because my eyes water throughout the day. The waterproof also keeps my lashes curled. The regular formula straightens them out. This may not be an issue for you, but it is one that I struggle with.
Définicils High-Definition Lash Defining Mascara - Lancôme
I absolutely love this powder. It goes on and doesn't sink into creases and fine lines. It's very light and doesn't look like you have powder on your face.
jane iredale PurePressed Base Mineral Foundation Refill SPF 20/15 ...
This blush is the perfect shade for summer! It's light and not too bright, but they do have other colors to choose from.
Dandelion baby-pink brightening blush
Light weight eye concealer that I love. A little bit goes a long way. I put it on with a concealer brush then polish it off with a sponge.
Live Tinted Hueskin Hydrating Serum Concealer - Ulta Beauty
I use this after moisterizing and before my eye concealor. This stick helps to keep the concealor from settling into my fine lines under and around my eye area.
Ego Boost Brightening Vitamin C Serum Stick
I use this after my ego boost and before my concealor. I use the pink shade to take away the dark circles under my eyes, and brighten the area.
Palladio Under Eye Brightener | Dark Circle Corrector
I usually don't wear foundation because it feels really thick on my skin. This; however, is so lightweight you don't even know you're wearing it.
4-in-1 Tinted Moisturizer Broad Spectrum SPF 20 - Pur Minerals
I prefer to use a brush, instead of my fingers, to apply my concealor. I just feel it goes on smoother. After the brush, I dab my undereye with a sponge.
Albeaut Angled Under Eye Concealer Brush
You can use any sponge, this is just one of the many I have.
Concealer Sponge Under Eye
As I've aged, my brows have started to thin. I've been using this Lancolm brow shaping powdery pencil because if you make a mistake while penciling in your brows, you can use the spool part and fix it. Very easy to use!
Lancôme - 02 Dark Blonde Brow Shaping Powdery Pencil
I prefer using Bobby Brown's gel eyeliner because it doesn't bleed into my skin throughout the day. However, I have been using this pencil and have been satisfied with it. I use the “Parisian Night - metallic” but will say that I do have to touch it up if I'm heading out for dinner after the work day.
Drama Liqui-Pencil Waterproof Gel Eyeliner Pencil - Lancôme
Another brand I've tried since Bobby Brown discontinued making their gel eyeliner in colors. This one doesn't bleed into my skin throughout the day.
24/7 Glide-On Eye Waterproof Eyeliner Pencil
I love the neutral tones in this eyeshadow pallete. I bring it with me on all of my trips out of town because it will go with anything you're wearing. From daytime to evening…it's all there.
MAKEUP BY MARIO Master Mattes® Eyeshadow Palette
This is my favorite during the summer because it has a hint of color with a sheen. It's truly beautiful!
Lip Idôle Squalane-12 Butterglow™ Hydrating Lip Balm - Lancôme
