Primer
After moisturizing I start with the BECCA priming filter. It brightens the skin and gives it a perfect sheer base. This is the best way to prep your skin for foundation and other makeup to follow. Not only does it leave your skin with the best subtle glow, but it helps your makeup last allll day. I never have any issues with it settling into fine lines or pores so I would definitely recommend it!
Foundation
I rotate between my 2 favorite foundations. This one by Too Faced and my current obsessions by Estee Lauder.
In regards to the Too Faced Double Wear, I use the shade warm vanilla. Been obsessed with this foundation for a few years now. I have SUPER dry skin so I love that this foundation is infused with coconut water. It aids in replenishing the skin to give it that natural glow;) Its also medium to full coverage so it’s buildable on nights when you’re going for a full glam look all the while maintaining a lightweight/natural look. I’ve tried it on all my friends and have yet to find someone who it doesn’t work for!!
The Estee Lauder foundation (Shade: 2n1) is SO good. True Story: I accidentally knocked an entire bottle of this on my tile bathroom floor. Of course the glass bottle cracked in half and went everywhere…You already know my butt sat on that floor for a good 15 minutes trying to salvage every ounce of product that remained untouched. Put the rest of it in a clean dropper and never thought twice. It’s that worthy. But seriously, this foundation lasts all day for me. Its medium to full coverage but I swear it doesn’t even feel like i’m wearing makeup.
Concealer
(Light- Neutral) The holy grail… of course. Everyone raves about this product- and for good reason. It’s seriously SO good. I use it to brighten my under eyes and “T” zone. It provides full coverage and is super bendable. Iv’e tried a lot of concealers and can’t stand when they dry immediately after you apply them. That’s definitely not a problem with this product and it allows you to really take your time buffing the concealer it into your skin.
On days when the bags are really out to play, I’ll apply this concealer first and then build on it with Tarte one. This stuff is magic. It covers any blemish/bag. I will say, it definitely has more of a neutral color and I don’t feel like it brightens as much as the Tarte one, but it is insanely good at covering any blemishes/imperfections.
Powder
You always want to set your liquid products with a powder. I personally use the Laura Mercier setting powder to keep my makeup in place. It definitely gives your makeup a more finished look. This product is also perfect for anyone with oily skin- it absorbs moisture and reduces shine throughout the day.
Bronzer
Obsessed with these two bronzer. I usually sculpt out my cheek bones with the Too Faced Chocolate Soleil Matte Bronzer and then bronze the outside areas of my face in 3 like figure around my hairline, cheek bone, and chin with the Bobbi Brown bronzer. Both products add a ton of dimension to your face and apply so nicely.
Mascara
Can not rave about this mascara enough. It makes your lashes look double their natural length and insanely full. My favorite part…no fall out. There’s nothing worse than looking in the mirror and seeing black under your eyes after a long day.
Blush
(Shade: Orgasm) my makeup never feels complete without a rosey pink. This NARS blush is super versatile and is the perfect year round color.
Eyeshadow Pallette
With the exception of a few single Mac shadows, this is pretty much the only eyeshadow pallet that I use. The colors are SUPER pigmented and this pallette has the perfect range of shades. I stick to the neutrals and pinks but i love that there are so many other colors to play around with.
Setting Spray
Crucial when it comes to making your makeup last all night. This stuff is no joke. Between the Becca primer and this setting spray, I can wear my makeup for a full day without touch ups. Definitely worth the buy!!
