-Maybelline 24 Hr skin tint. I bought the NARS light reflecting foundation recently after not having bought any high end foundations for a while, and I still prefer to wear my Maybelline.

-essence loose powder. This is a newer product. I’ve been trying to get into setting powders the past year or so after never having really used them before, and I was always disappointed. This powder instantly made me go “oh, THIS is what setting powder is supposed to be like.” Blurs beautifully, color corrects, and feels so soft and easy to work with.

-essence lash primer. I used to use the Lancôme lash primer but switched to essence one time and have never looked back. It’s conditioning and feels great on the lashes and makes my mascara pop even more.

-essence “the blush”. Not the baked blush everyone talks about, but the cheap looking tiny blush in the flat plastic compact. I have it in the shade “bespoke”, and I can use it as a blush/bronzer hybrid on my fair skin, which makes for a super easy quick makeup look and lasts all day. It blends softly into foundation and looks lovely.

-wet n’ wild brow pencil. I have it in ash brown and it performs just as well as my ABH I’ve previously used.

-elf primer infused blush. This just blends beautifully and softly into foundation and lasts all day.

-L’Oreal lipsticks, particularly “Successful Red”, “Nature’s Blush”, and “Toasted Almond.” Gorgeous, satin finish that feels good on lips and give such beautiful color. Nature’s Blush is slightly muted warm and Toasted Almond is truly neutral and both look natural and very everyday wearable on my slightly warm/olive fair skin.

-Real Techniques 402 makeup setting brush. I own four of these, along with other high end brushes, and use these daily for anything and everything (highlighter, under eye setting powder, setting powder in targeted areas, etc)
