Primer & Colour Corrector
I use this as my base to add a nice glow and brighten my skin tone prior to cancelling out redness with my colour corrector.
B-Goldi™ Bright Illuminating Drops with 5% Niacinamide
I put this on my acne prior to colour corrector to help heal my acne and hydrate my dry skin around my break outs.
Rescue Balm | The Post-Blemish Recovery Cream
This is my favourite product to ever exist!!!! It can be worn alone or under foundation. It eliminates all the redness acne has and it doesn't look like you are wearing makeup. It has been a lifesaver for my blemishes and wearing less makeup!
Rescue Balm Green
Foundation & Concealer
Beautiful glowy finish that is not cakey or greasy. It has skincare ingredients and lasts all day!
Givenchy Prisme Libre Skin-Caring Glow Foundation
My favourite product for when I don't feel like wearing foundation. Blends out nicely over acne and looks natural.
Touche Éclat High Cover - YSL Beauty
Bronzer & Contour & Highlighter
Very pigmented! Glides on smoothly and blends well with textured skin.
Bionic Sunkissed Liquid Bronzer with Hyaluronic Acid
The shade reality is the perfect dupe for the drunk elephant drops and does not irritate acne-prone skin. It can be mixed with a moisturizer for a bronzy glow or as a bronzer/ contour for lighter skin tones.
Bionic Glow Liquid Highlighter + Illuminator
Starglow is perfect! Can mix in with foundation or moisturizer or just place on top of foundation for highlight/extra glow!
Saie Glowy Super Gel Lightweight Illuminating Serum
Blush
The shade infinity is stunning. Blends extremely well over textured skin and is not irritating.
MILK MAKEUP Bionic Liquid Blush with Hyaluronic Acid
Super creamy and easy to blend out, a little goes a long way. My favourite is the shade happy :)
Rare Beauty by Selena Gomez Soft Pinch Liquid Blush
Setting Powder
Is not cakey or drying at all! Lasts ALL day and leaves a beautiful glow that does not irritate the skin.
Saie Airset Radiant Loose Setting Powder
My favourite compact all over face powder! I love diffused light because it has yellow undertones. Not too shimmery, gives a nice glow to the face!
Hourglass Ambient® Lighting Finishing Powder
Brows
Does not leave brows crusty and holds them in place! Has the perfect amount of pigment and the thin brush makes it easy to be precise when locking brow hairs in place.
Iconic London Tint and Texture Brow Gel
Works even better than some of the pricier ones I've tried. I prefer the clear and then a regular tinted brow gel!
The Brow Glue Instant Brow Styler - NYX Cosmetics
Perfect to fill in hair strokes! I use medium brown!
Another one of my favourite brow pencils that works as good as the expensive ones, this tip is thicker to fill in brows quicker.
Wet n Wild Ultimate Brow Retractable
Mascara
I will never go back to just putting mascara on my lashes. The length and volume from this primer is amazing and nothing compares!
Diorshow Maximizer 3D Triple Volume Plumping Lash ...
Best waterproof mascara! I've tried many at all different price points and this one is at the top of my list. It separates and lengthens lashes wonderfully and does not crumble or smudge throughout the day or night, while still being easy to remove w...
Mega Length Waterproof Mascara
Works so well at separating and lengthening lashes. I like to use this one on my botton lashes as well!
Maybelline Lash Sensational Sky High Mascara
Setting Spray
Makes my makeup last all day and leaves a glowy finish!
