It's all about that BASE! 🥁
One of the most important steps in any makeup routine is your base layer! A good primer and foundation combo will be the key to your makeup staying in place!
This primer is soooo good and has great grip! Make sure to use water based makeup with it!
Plumping Primer Serum - NYX
Very similar to the NYX primer however it is slightly more tacky but not to a point of discomfort! That’s just the grip doing its magic!
Power Grip Primer
This concealer is so rich and has great coverage!
Milani Perfect Longwear Concealer
This concealer truly feels like a serum! It’s not full coverage so it’s great for those days you want to go a little lighter on the makeup but still have some coverage!
Hydrating Face & Body Concealer Serum - NYX
Don’t let the low price point throw you off because this is luxurious! I get SOOO many compliments when I wear this tint! It’s buildable and pairs well with the first two primers!
Tinted Hydrator Skin Tint
If you want a little more coverage but still want your makeup to feel like skin, go for this!
Buttermelt Glaze Skin Tint SPF 30 -
Also a budget friendly staple! Offers more coverage than the tints and has such a pretty finish!
PhotoFocus Liquid Foundation - Wet n Wild
Eye See You! 👁️👄👁️
This is ole reliable! The brush applicator is easy to use and this product is definitely easy to manipulate should your wings turn into distant cousins.
Jet Black Expert Liquid Liner
TikTok fav for a reason! The volume and length makes any lashes look like falsies.
Telescopic Mascara
Such a solid budget staple. They have several variants depending on what you’re looking for in a mascara and you can’t beat it for the price!
Curl & Volume Mascara
If you’ve never heard of tubing mascara it’s a game changer if you hate taking your makeup off, especially the mascara. Just wet your lashes and let them soak for a few seconds and the mascara will slip right off!
Sky High Mascara - Maybelline
Blush, Brows, & Bronzer! ☺️🎀
The brows aren't going anywhere if you use this! I've tested this in the most humid conditions, at the gym, at the beach, and everywhere in between! I personally love the tinted one because it helps me skip a step when I'm feeling too lazy to fill in...
Brow Glue
This creamy bronzer is great for any makeup look. I reach for this on my full beat days and no makeup-makeup days! It is super blendable and easy to work with!
Cream Bronzer
One of the best drug-store bronzers on the market! It smells AMAZING and has a velvety smooth finish!
Butter Bronzer
I spy a Rare Beauty dupe!!! The shade range on these is great, they're SUPER pigmented and the product has such a pretty and glowy finish!
Liquid Blush
If you're looking for a softer blush that also has a bit of highlighter already embedded in the product, this is the one for you!
Baked Blush
This blush is a no-brainer. It's extremely pigmented AND it comes with two! You basically get a 2 for 1!
Blushed Duo
Who said highlighters need to be expensive to be SHINY? The pigment and shine on these is incredible and you can't beat this price point! I love using this highlighter on my eyes and brow bone for extra shine!
MegaGlo Highlighting Powder - Wet n Wild
Lippies! 💋💋💋
This is my fav step in my routine! A good lip combo is what breathes life into a full beat or no-makeup-makeup look.
Such a pretty deep brown! This pencil is HUGE so you will definitely get your money's worth out of this one!
Lip Pencil - Morphe
If you don't have a NYX lip liner in your lippie rotation, this is your sign. NYX has a huge range of colors; you're bound to find one that's just right for you.
Suede Matte Lip Liner - NYX
She's cute, she's affordable, she's not sticky, and she pairs with soooooo many other lippies! I also love the applicator, it feels luxurious! Some say it's a great dupe for the DIOR lip oils.
Lip Oil - e.l.f. Cosmetics
This is the glossiest gloss of all glosses. She's cheap and SHINY!
Crystal Clear Extreme Shine Volume Lipgloss - Essence
They truly put the butter in butter gloss with this one! This gloss is velvety smooth, glides like butter, and my favorite part…. it's not sticky! This gloss is also very hydrating, so you don't have to worry about crusty lips!
Butterscotch Butter Gloss Non-Sticky Lip Gloss - NYX
This liner is not going ANYWHERE! It's long lasting and glides on your lips like butter!
Lifter Liner - Maybelline
The hyaluronic acid in this product makes it very rich and hydrating! It has high shine and the XL applicator is great for easy use and precision!
Lifter Gloss with Hyaluronic Acid - Maybelline
All SET! 🏃🏽♀️💨
Now that you've spent all this time creating literal ART on your face, we want to make sure it will LAST!
This setting spray is a staple in my everyday routine. I personally love the natural finish however, they do have a dewy and matte alternative! A few spritz of this setting spray and you're good to go for some long days!
Natural Finish Setting Spray
This product is a favorite for a reason! 1. It has a lot of product so it's a good bang for your buck 2. It is a literal photo filter in powder form! Pores? We don't know her!
Loose Finishing Powder - Maybelline
This compact is my fav for on-the-go touch ups. I tend to run a bit oily after a long day and this product alone renews my whole look! It also has a mirror, so it makes those touch-ups that much easier.
Matte + Poreless Powder - Maybelline
