I am about to enter my last year in my 30s and have carefully curated my makeup bag. But I’ve also noticed those products have changed over the past 2 years. Recently, I’ve been stopped in the grocery store, walking near my office, and at home to ask...
So easy to create effortless eyes in a pinch!
ColourPop Of Quartz Shadow Palette - Taupe
I apply this at the top of my cheekbones, in the corners of my eyes, & ridge of my nose. Perfect tone and brightening effect.
Cookie and Tickle Shimmer Finish Powder Highlighters
This is the GOAT mascara! So much volume and opens my eyes up. The perfect addition to any makeup look. I received a sample of this and immediately returned to buy tube after tube of this. You cannot convince me there is anything better.
Fan Fest Fanning & Volumizing Mascara
The only product I use on my brows now! Gives enough tint without feeling like my brows are loaded down with product. Nice, light, and a more natural approach is what I feel this gives!
Gimme Brow+ Tinted Volumizing Eyebrow Gel
I work super long hours and at times have a stressful job! I need to be able to go from the office to happy hour without losing any coverage in between. I cannot say enough good things about this foundation. I’m on my second bottle.
Teint Idole Ultra 24H Long Wear Matte Foundation with Hyaluronic Acid & Vitamin E
Matte is where it’s at! Love the beautiful shades and how this looks on. A new trick I learned recently is to use the same brush for your blush as you use for your bronzer. It gives a more seamless blend.
Chocolate Soleil Matte Bronzer
I used to be a strict black eyeliner user. But now that I’m working on a promotion, I need something more less harsh but still stands out. Feast your eyes on my favorite gel liner. It’s also easy on the wallet!
Sunnyvale BFF Crème Gel Liner - ColourPop | Ulta Beauty
I love how pigmented this blush is! But I’m still really conscious about how bright it is. Especially with the harsh overhead lights in the office.
To The 10 Pressed Powder Blush - ColourPop | Ulta Beauty
I’ve started lining my lower lash area with this color. Less harsh than white and also opens your eyes up more!
Honeydude BFF Crème Gel Liner - ColourPop | Ulta Beauty
My secret weapon to making any shimmery shadows pop? This product! While not technically makeup, it is a makeup bag staple in my eyes!
Long Lasting Glitter Primer - NYX Professional Makeup | Ulta Beauty
If I want to add a little bit of extra shine to my cheeks, I’ll lightly dust them with this amazing baked blush! A little goes a long way.
The shimmers and glitters are so beautiful! The pictures here do not do the colors justice. Long wear time and easy to pop in your purse in case you go to a happy hour after work.
Don’t let this little square fool you! The glitter packs a powerful punch. I get so many compliments. I’ve worn it to the pool by itself for a “natural sparkle” (Twilight anyone?!) 🫠 but it’s also pretty when you layer it on top of eyeshadow too.
