MAKEUP
Best of Primers
Danessa Myricks Glow Serum: This is a newer product for me, and I absolutely love the radiant glow and flawless finish it added to my makeup. I wear the shade Champagne Gold.
Hourglass Veil Mineral Primer: This feels like velvet on your skin and does amazing under makeup! My absolute favorite.
Charlotte Tilbury Hollywood Flawless Filter: You can use this product as a primer, foundation or a highlighter! It’s really a great multi-purpose product that gives you a beautiful glow. I personally love using it right underneath my foundation! I wear shade 4.5.
Milk Makeup Hydro Grip Primer: This is SO good under makeup!! It gives you the perfect texture so your makeup just grips on it like magnet. 10/10 recommend!! Love there new glow hydro grip as well!
Iconic London Underglow Blurring Primer: This primer creates a flawless, radiant base. Its lightweight, hydrating formula provides a beautifully blurring effect on the skin!
Best of Complexion Products
NARS Natural Radiant Longwear Foundation: This is the OG foundation that I’ve been sharing for 6+ years. Amazing, buildable coverage that is great for all skin types! I wear shade Barcelona.
Haus Labs Foundation: I picked this up during last years Sephora sale and fell in love with it. It’s the foundation I keep reaching for! The formula is fantastic and works great for dry skin. Plus, the wide shade range is what we love to see—I wear shade 230!
Armani Beauty Luminous Silk Foundation: This foundation has everything I want in a glowy base! It offers a naturally radiant finish, is easily buildable, feels lightweight, and comes in a wide range of shades! I wear shade 5.75.
Dior Forever Skin Foundation Stick: I picked this up during the last Sephora Sale, and it definitely lives up to the hype. It offers a great medium-to-full coverage and is one of the few foundation sticks I actually love—especially for dry skin. I wear shades 3 and 3.5.
Patrick Ta Skin Perfecting Foundation: I’ve been eyeing this for so long! My shade was sold out during the last sale, but I managed to get a sample—and I absolutely loved it. I’m excited to finally grab the full size this time! It’s definitely best suited for dry skin, as it leaves a beautifully radiant finish. I wear shade 13.
Ilia Super Serum Skin Tint: If you are looking for something more lightweight but still provides a nice no makeup, makeup look then this is PERFECTION. It also has SPF 40 and has great skincare benefits in it too! Don’t forget to wear your sunscreen daily (no matter the weather)!! SPF, serum, foundation in one– I’m sold! Just be sure to powder down if you are more on the normal to oily side! I’m in shade 12.
Hourglass Skin Tint: Such beautiful coverage that still looks like your skin..but better! I wear shade 7 and 8.
It Cosmetics CC+ Cream Nude Glow: If you’re looking for a great CC cream, this one is GOLD. It’s so perfect if you have normal/combo or dry skin. It gives you the prettiest glow and has SPF 40. If you have super oily skin, I would stick with their original CC+Cream with SPF50+!
Summer Fridays Sheer Skin Tint: This skin tint looks beautiful on the skin, and you all know how much I love Summer Fridays! I wear shade 4.
Charlotte Tilbury Sheer Glow Foundation Stick: You all know how much I LOVE the Flawless Filter, and this one is quite similar. I’d say it offers a bit more coverage and glow. I wear shade 8 medium.
Milk Skin Tint: This newer product went viral for all the right reasons! I love that it works double duty—gripping like a primer while providing an even, skin-perfecting tint. It’s also super hydrating and leaves a gorgeous glow. I wear shade 8.
Best of Concealer
NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer: My go-to! Hydrating, doesn’t crease, beautiful coverage! I wear shade custard or ginger.
NARS Soft Matte Concealer: Such an underrated concealer. I use this primarily to spot treat any redness or acne scars. Good coverage, easy to travel with and does well on mature skin. I wear shade ginger.
Lancome Concealer: This is a wonderful daily use concealer. It’s the right amount of coverage for every day but still buildable. I use shade 260.
Huda color corrector: I’ve been using this every day lately. My dark circles and uneven skin tone have been quite noticeable, and this product really helps to brighten and even things out! I definitely recommend adding it to your routine, plus there are plenty of color options available. I use shade Peach.
Charlotte Tilbury Color Corrector: I love this one too! It’s definitely more travel-friendly and easier to toss in a bag compared to the Huda corrector. It provides just the right amount of coverage to even things out beautifully. I wear shade Medium Peach.
Best of Blush
RARE Beauty Liquid Blush: MY FAVORITE LIQUID BLUSH!!! Believe and Happy are the best in my opinion. It has amazing reviews!! Liquid blushes last longer + give your skin a more healthy, youthful look because of how it radiates on your skin.
Hourglass Ambient Lighting Blush: Another beautiful powder! This is definitely more blush than highlighter but still gives you a healthy, luminous glow.
Patrick TA Duo Blush: I always find myself reaching for it! I own three shades, but ‘Do We Know Her’ and ‘Just Enough’ are my top two favorites You definitely get the most bang for your buck with this duo because of the powder / cream combination. It’s also perfect for travel since it offers two products in one!
Haus Labs Blush: The formula on this is insaneeee. So pigmented and I love the packaging. This has become my new go-to. I use shades Hibiscus haze and dragonfly daze.
Saie Liquid Blush: This is one of those blushes that will never run out! One bottle will last you SO long because a little goes a long way. It’s very creamy and pigmented. These almost feel like there’s highlight mixed into it too.
Kosas Baked Blushes: This is another great baked blush option. It blends effortlessly into the skin, giving a natural, lit-from-within glow. The formula is lightweight, buildable, and never looks powdery, making it perfect for a fresh, radiant finish.
Haus Labs Color Fuse Balm Stick: I just got this product, and I’m already obsessed! Haus Labs has been absolutely killing it lately. Pair it with their powder blush for the perfect flushed look.
Best of Bronzers
Patrick Ta Duo: I have shade She’s Sculpted. The formula is so good and again, this is one of those products where you get the most for your money because it has powder and a cream in one. Makes it easy for traveling too!
Rare Beauty Bronzer Stick: Blends like butter!!
Too Faced Chocolate Soleil: This is a new product that I am loving! It blends effortlessly, adds the perfect warmth without looking orange, and has a delicious chocolate scent that makes application even better.
Makeup By Mario Skin Enhancer: I picked this up during the last Sephora Sale, and I find myself reaching for it all the time! It blends seamlessly, especially when used with the Makeup by Mario F4 brush!
Hourglass Ambient Lighting Bronzer: I’ve been using this + sharing it for years now. I have shade Luminous Bronze Light. The way this bronzer hits when the light reflects on your skin is SO stunning.
Airbrush Matte Bronzer: This will last you forever! It’s very pigmented and lasts. When I want a more sculpted, matte makeup look, I top off my cream bronzer with this product and it really locks everything in place.
Saie Sun melt: Love this bronzer, it truly just melts into the skin! I use shade medium bronze.
Best of Setting Powders and Sprays
Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Flawless Finish Setting Powder: I have shade 2 Medium. Sets your makeup flawlessly + doesn’t dry you out! I’m VERY picky about setting powders.
Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Flawless Setting Spray: Lately, this has been my go-to spray. It works just as well as the powder and I’m a sucker for the packaging!
Hourglass Setting Powder: Another face powder that does not dry out your skin and really brightens up your skin as well. 10/10.
One Size Setting Spray: This setting spray went viral and for good reason. I would only use this when you really don’t want your makeup to budge all day, all night long. It’s super powerful!
Kosas Cloud Set: This is a good every day setting powder that doesn’t leave your makeup feeling cakey. It’s buttery!! It’s kind of like a skin-tone blurring shade. I love using it underneath my contour. It’s easy and works well. Plus, it’s clean!
Makeup by Mario Powder: It’s lightweight, blurs imperfections, and keeps makeup in place all day without looking cakey or dry.
Best of Eyes and Brows
Ilia Limitless Mascara: I combine this with the Lancome Lash Idole a lot. This doesn’t clump and it helps lengthen your mascara so well! One of my favorites from Sephora!
Haus Labs Mascara: This has quickly become one of my favorite mascaras! It’s super dark, perfect for a night out or moody eye look, and long-wearing. I think this will be the mascara of 2025!
Lancôme CILS BOOSTER XL Super Enhancing Mascara Base: The only lash primer I use!
Rare Beauty Mascara: I end up purchasing it over and over again! It’s one of the best in the game. Doesn’t flake at all. Gives you both length and volume.

Rare Beauty Brow Gel: Another really great, natural brow gel!
Fake Awake: We all know my love for Tarte Fake Awake! It really does open up your eyes and make you look and feel more awake!
Best of Eyeshadows
Patrick Ta Major Dimension Eyeshadow Palette: This is one of the few larger palettes that have all the good shades that you can use! It’s pigmented and beautiful!
Makeup by Mario Master Mattes: The Neutrals palette is such a good find from Sephora. It has every shade you need to create a natural or smokey look. The pigment is also 10/10.
Urban Decay Moondust: shade – urban cowboy. If you want that perfect wet eyeshadow shimmer, this is it.
Natasha Denona I Need a Nude Eyeshadow Palette: Those who remember will know how much I loved the Makeup by Mario Ethereal Palette, which was unfortunately discontinued. I’ve been on the hunt for an alternative, and I’ve finally found it! The colors and the formula are just amazing—I’m obsessed!
Best of Highlighters
Dior Backstage Glow Face Palette: It has multiple shades for highlight and it’s the perfect glow with no chunks of glitter!

Fenty Highlighter: Another TikTok favorite highlighter! I always use this one for travel, very durable.
Charlotte Tilbury Highlight Wand: This is a fan favorite and rightfully so!

SERUMS & OILS
The Ordinary Niacinamide 10% + Zinc 1%: This brand is already super affordable- not sure why their products are amazing?! Again, Niacinamide is my favorite ingredient. It really helps target blemishes + scarring. I’d test this out on a portion of your face because it can be a bit strong and may not be the best for super sensitive skin. I have somewhat sensitive skin and it didn’t give me any issues.
The Ordinary Hyaluronic Acid 2% + B5: This one is good for all skin types. It’s hydrating but not greasy.
Caudalie Vinoperfect Serum: I LOVE this serum. I used it everyday and it gives my skin that glassy look!
Ranavat Radiant Rani: This oil is incredible + it’s clean at Sephora. It’s anti-aging but also brightening.
Glow Recipe Dew Drops: This product is great for so many reasons. It can be used a primer before make up, mixed with foundation for a glowy finish, or on bare skin for a nice glow. It’s packed with great skin care benefits as well!
TONER & ESSENCE & CLEANSER
Caudalie Spray: LOVE THIS! I use this for a hydration refresh in my skincare rutine, but also as a setting spray in my makeup look to keep it glowy and lasting.
Elemis Cleansing Balm: The best makeup remover and cleanser. It really melts away makeup, dirt, and impurities with our stripping your skin. It feels like butter on the face and does not burn your eyes at all.
First Aid Beauty Pure Skin Cleanser: 10/10 recommend! Great for sensitive skin + also takes off all your makeup! It doesn’t dry you out either.
Paulas Choice 2% BHA Chemical Exfoliant: This product is a great thing to add in your routine to control acne and skin texture.
